Barney and others …

What has my entry this time around got to do with Barney?  One might ask … The thing is …

1) On 6 Dec - I believe, XH asked me to return her the $$ (for u know what …)  and I was like … ‘I’m already broke’ … So I called SH up and discuss about the things.  We decided to meet up, so she can pay half and I pay the other half of the $$ to XH.  So SH and I decided to meet at Lot 1 …

When I reached Lot 1 - I was going @@||| … Did I go to the wrong place or what … Then SH came down from wherever she was shopping at earlier on, I met her outside the ‘Body Shop’ … and she said, just because the purple dinosaur - Barney was here at Lot 1, theres’ so many ppl … =_=();;

Never mind, we went to Subway had lunch - namely me had the lunch, she only had one cookie … then I told her I heading over to XH place … to pay the $$.  Then she said, she wanna go too … but before that, had to buy food for her pet …

while we were boarding the bus to head over to XH place, XH called and told us to clear our bladder before heading over - as her dad wanna do something to the bathroom of her house.  Then we reached there, talk awhile as we waited for the rain to stop.  She suddenly said - die lor … she had urgent business to do leh …

XH & I decided to visit the few music schools about her home neighbourhood - but first she wanna use toilet.  However, her home toilet cannot be used … so how leh?  Simply, we head down to her grand mother house and use the toilet there.  SH followed us, as she too - wanna use the toilet ^^;;

While waiting for XH, her grandmother chatted with SH and I … After which, SH went home and XH & I went about the neighbourhood.

2) 7 Dec - boss finally paid me my salary for the month of November … but complaint a bit about my going about telling ppl about he owning me pay … I was like ‘WTF … not that I wanna go around telling, but please lah … ppl waiting for money like siao … you still hold on to the pay … ‘

If I not in need of money, what for I work ?  I need the money to pay bills, and my music school fees - and also to use leh … still got to pay off the debt that I owe my mother … ppl like me need money promptly on time leh … he still hold on to the pay for ‘unknown period’ of time.  If I did not keep on yapping on about it - if he hold my pay for one whole week then how?  Somemore, 8 Dec is public holiday leh … 9 Dec, I no need to work … the pay come out on 5 Dec … if I wait until 10 Dec then get the pay … it would be like late for 1 week liao leh …

Anyway, I also a bit unhappy lah … but since he is the boss - I cannot say anything.  After work, called SH up and complaint abit - she ask me whether I want to change job and all … I say, wait until after NEW year then say lah … Now Economy not good, change job also not very good.  Later cannot find a new job how? Somemore, new year approaching - dun wanna create trouble for boss.  (Hope got bonus - I work for him nearly a year liao …)

3) Either way, 8 Dec - went out to K-box Clementi with SH.  I wanna relief some stress … so we go sing! Lol … sing a lot of songs by SHE and others … we wait about half an hour more for the ppl to come and collect money … In the end, we have to go pay at cashier ourselves - as the ppl never did come and get payment from us … -_-()

4) 9 Dec - went to Cash Converter with XH & my “aunt” visited me liao … of course, now my “aunt” go back alreadh XD so I can go swim with the gang on X’mas Eve XD

Never-mind, xH & I sold some VCD set to the Cash Converter staff - very little money only lah … then we go about Jurong East and see see lor XD  Bought gift for SH mom … then last stop - we went to popular book store to buy wrapping paper for the gift.  After which, we go home separately.

5) 10 Dec - school start, initially haven’t buy the books wanna wait and see if the lecturer says need buy or not.  Nonetheless, we check the pricing first - one book cost 47 bucks, and another one cost 48 bucks … and both heavy like siao …

Went to class, MA lecturer says must buy … but me don’t feel like buying both, so I ask XH - to share, we each buy one book - then we shared them among ourselves.  Then she buy the MA one (which she haven’t bought yet) … and I will buy the FA book.  Although, the FA lecturer say - its’ optional, still think buy is better … cause’ if we were to download the text from freeloadpress.com … =_=() It will be like few hundred pages, like that - printer will die … somemore … ink more expensive.  Moreover, content is somewhat different from our recommended text book, so XH & I decided to buy.

6) 13 Dec - Saturday, went out in the morning to Tiong Bahru - decided to buy FA text book … ‘real heavy sia’ … come back to Jurong popular to get more wrapping papers … cause’ bought XH mom and sister gift for X’mas the day before … need to wrap them.

After noon, about 2 went out with Mom to get new number (mom is using my old Samsung SGH-D510 phone … she need a new number.)  So we visited the m1 Exclusive Distributor at Jurong East, and the person there sort of persuaded my mother to get a line instead of prepaid card.  Since my mom already had a line registered under her name (my bro is using) - the person change my bro plan to Sunsaver - so my mom can simply sub a line out from the main line …

After explaining stuff and all, I left my Mom behind at the store - and tell mom to get the person to put in the sim card for her and all as I had to rush off to meet XH at Takashimaya.  At first wanna buy calender, but in the end never see any that I like … so didn’t buy … but the main motive for the day is to get new swim suit.

Walk around Taka for a while, in the end decided to go ‘OG’ - as XH heard from her mom that ‘OG’ having offer again … in the end, I really buy at ‘OG’ …

Bought the Waveline Brand Swim Suit … cost about 39.40 bucks , cheapest brand in store ^^;; rest is like 60-70 bucks … then I got a new Swimming Cap as my old one had been missing in action for quite some time already.  Added another goggles, as my old one had spoilt.  =_= ()  All in all, spend 72.70 bucks on Swimming Set … XH was like, You get one set at this pricing - In her case, this kind of pricing was only for her swim suit ^^;;

From next month onwards, would get XH to go swimming with me once per month - to ensure that my swim suit can last longer ^^;; my old one spoilt so must purchase new one … =_=();; last time around, my swimming set cost about 50 bucks, now 20 bucks more T.T

Anyway, after ‘OG’ - we decided to head to P.S.  but stopped by Music Essential for a while.  Look around for a while, at the scores and stuff … before heading over to Plaza Sing - my motive in mind was Yamaha … Had to get’powdered’ paper and a new cleaning gauge for my flute …

Actually, powdered paper I can get later one … but I was like - I dun wanna come down to Orchard all the way to get powdered paper only … since I am already around the area, might as well get all together.  As I had applied for the Yamaha card last time when I visited P.S. I am able to get a discount for the two things that I bought this time around.

Either way, the P.S was very crowded that day … Did not know why - until XH commented about me being very fated to meet with ‘Barney’ … Then I realized, the place was crowded only because Barney the Dinosaur is here - again … =_=();; Twice in a row …

Lets’ hope there will not be a third time event whereby I cross path with the Barney …

7) Flute lesson on Sunday, 14 Dec - was late … but teacher says I’m fast already … Nevertheless, the lesson eats into my theory … so … yeah … Anyway, Ms. Wee (my teacher) told me that we will probably finished with Grade 1 Theory in another few months - then we will be able to start grade 2 theory … She added that I might want to try taking the Grade 2 Theory - during the Nov Exam next year …

She also says - practical wise, we have to wait and see how first … After all, I still need more practice … She added that when I reached Grade 5 - I might have to change the flute as my current flute model had no E-mechanism … so the high ‘E’ might not sound that nice during exam time.  So I might have to change my flute when I reaches that level - so that I can get a better sound out during exams the next time around.  However, to reach grade 5 -I still need like another 5 years … or around there … so no rush yet …

Shall see what model to get - when I come to that time, can ask teacher too - since she too, had two flutes … ^^;;

Alright, that’s all for this time entry … See ya!  Lastly, hope that Eve can recovered from her Chicken Pox soon … So we can all go out have fun on Xmas Eve ^_^

Another update …

Well, shuhua you wanted an update … so I hereby dedicated this update to you.

Although, my mind is literally falling asleep and had no idea just what should go into this entry.  I’ll just do a summary of the past few days’ events.  Get myself started on facebook and realized that its’ a whole lot easier to find accquitances from the past as compared to friendster.  Still, it depended on luck sometimes as not all of them held both a facebook and a friendster account.

Anyway, managed to locate a couple of my secondary school teachers.  Message quite a few of them, and surprisingly enough - Mr Cheng, my sec 4 &5 English teacher still remembered who I am.  Was so happy that day … cause’ I thought he would have forgotten about me, by now.  After all, I graduated from that school like 4 years ago.

Now I’m starting to miss Mr David Chin, Mr Zainal and Mr. Samson … I wonder how they are faring now … and wondered if Mr Samson is still teaching at ITE Clementi …

Not only do I miss the lecturers from my ITE days, nowadays I also find myself thinking back on my primary school days.  Especially, now that my primary school had officially retired and merged with Jurong Primary School.  I can’t help but wonder just how are all my primary school teachers doing at this point of time.

Were they still teaching?  If so, where are they teaching now that Boon Lay is no longer around?  Did they re-located elsewhere, or simply just joined the Jurong Primary School Faculty?

Among all the teachers whom had knew/taught me back in my primary school days - I missed my P5/P6 form teacher, Mr Kamarrudin the most …I remembered the last time, I get the chance to meet up with him - was during my 6 months in ITE … Was on my way to the Jurong East Interchange, when I realized he was sitting directly opposite of me on the bus … We did not talk all the way, until we stepped off the bus.

Then the first thing he ask, was whether or not am I going on a date with my ‘boyfriend’.  I had laughed then, and claimed otherwise.  I then said, I am just meeting up with a friend whom just happened to be a male - rather than a boy-friend.

Aside from Mr Kamarrudin, I kind of miss seeing Mr.Yacob as well.  Although, Mr Yacob had never really taught me before … I kind of got used to seeing him around the coffee shop that was situated just a block away from my home for lunch.  He was among one of the few, whom would stop and conversed with me - despite not having a very clear idea of who I am/was … since he never did taught me in prior.

I miss - Ms. Suhaili as well.  Though, I never seemed to have her teaching me in class … I did remembered her kindness towards me.  When I was back in Sec 1/Sec 2 … I was over at the Jurong East Popular Book Store trying to look for the book ‘Charlotte’s Web’ for a English/Literature project of mine … only to find the store completely out of stock.  Was so stressed out back then …

Just when I was turning around to face the other way, I found myself looking straight at her - instead.  As during that period of time, Ms. Suhaili just happened to be teaching my brother’s class - she remembered me.  That and the fact that I kind of frequent the staff room during the first few months upon graduation from the school and just having joined the secondary school.

She kindly borrowed me her own copy of ‘Charlotte’s Web’ (I went back to the primary school staff room to collect it from her, the next day).  She gave me her contact number back then, in order for me to contact her when I need to return her the book.  I returned the said book to her, about 3 weeks later …

When I met up with her, she asked me on my studies … I responded that I find myself having trouble catching up to the pace of the maths lessons.  She then spend one whole week to go through the problems in my textbook with me - on a daily basis, after her work and before she went home.   Am really indebted to her, really …

I know, she kind of left the school for further studies … but can’t remember whether its’ in local or abroad.  Anyway, all the best to her …and every other teachers’ whom had taught me before, regardless of which phase of my schooling life were they involved in.

Yesterday afternoon, took the POE (Principles of Economics) paper … All I can say is that, I’m glad the hellhole subject is over !!! finally. … No wonder ppl don’t really enjoy doing econs … cause’ its’ a very dry subject to study for exams …

I’m not exactly sure, just how well I can do for the exams … Think I will need at least 55 marks to get through the paper safely.  I don’t know leh , sekali later ended up having to redo the module … which I absolutely don’t want.  I already did my best already, write so much until my hand get numb and pain … Don’t wanna go through it again >.

Anime Fest 08 & Figurines

Seeing as I had a very long time disappearance from friendster blog, I hereby decided to dedicate this next entry to friendster instead of blogger. ^^;;

Anyway, went to the anime fest with XH & her sister yesterday (details available at xH blog … so I’m not going to say much here).

Only spend abt an hr in there, for me its’ only 30-45 mins as I queue for the ticket for an hour … Right, whatever it is - there’s nothing much inside … Just some booth selling merchandise items here, and there.  They have doujinshis and all, but its’ not really my cup of tea … so shall not go there.

Browse about the booth of Latendo (really crowded, can’t even move in there) … before we head over to the Takashimaya booth - not really expecting to find anything there.  However, guess what!?  We managed to find something that interest us, alright …

Its’ the first edition of the Code Geass Chibi Voice Doll and the Gundam 00 Version of it.  I think the Latendo booth had the second/latest Code Geass Chibi Voice Doll but can’t find it around - should be sold out already.  In either case, finding the first edition is still better than nothing.  Therefore, XH, her sis and I decided to try our luck with the code geass …

XH and I, on the other hand, tried our hands on the Gundam 00 version too :P  As I no longer had sufficient cash on hand back then, XH - alone tried her luck out on the chibi petite pop plus of the Code Geass Version.  We later found the Gundam 00 version at Suntec City - Toys Room or was it Toys Home?  Can’t remember … but in the end we didn’t buy cause’ we would hoping to be seeing a cheaper version of it in future …

>.

The Suzaku and Lelouch that went to XH & her sis, respectively.

The Graham voice doll that both XH & I get … (how many times, was it that we both ended up with the same figurine - together? )

The 2 Lelouch of the Tans’ Family … the small one is the one that XH had gotten from her try on the petite pop plus.

The Kallen Voice Doll that I got from my try with the Code Geass Chibi Voice Doll … (Luckily, its’ not Roy … although, its’ cute too )

The three Geass new members together, from left to right (Kallen, Suzaku & Lelouch) …

Contrast between the two Kallen (Chibi from me, adult from XH) & the contrast between the two Graham (Both from her contribution - lazy to take mine out) …

My new Chibi standing together for a picture …

My old Chibi at home (these are taken with XH’s … cause’ the photo session took place at her home … and since she had what I had at home … I borrowed from her.)

Together, my current ‘talking’ chibi collection now includes, Kallen (at the back), Athrun (left), Graham (Front), Lunamaria (Right).

Below are some more random pictures taken with our figurines on hand (Mainly those at XH’s place  … :P)

MY Favourite 2 Chibi Talking Dolls at her place, Athrun & Kira - respectively … Athrun, I had … but Kira … never actually have a chance to acquire him by myself.  My only Kira (chibi, not talking version) was a gift from XH to me, and it comes with a Lacus attached at the hips XD)

The C.C & Kallen from her collection & the Chibi Lavi from D-Grayman … I, myself - owns a Zero Version of the Lelouch & a faded coloured C.C (Special Edition) from the same box set that we both tried … Actually, she had a Lelouch and a C.C - the Kallen was from her sister’s collection XD As they shared the same room … their collection was displayed side by side XD

As for the D-Grayman … both of us, only had the chance to try our luck once … So while she got her Lavi, I got my Kanda too … Picture taken long time ago, but keep on forgetting to upload it >.

JPAE stuff

Well, I’ve picked the following polytechnics and courses for the JPAE application.  Actually, this post should be up sometime ago … but i’m too lazy to post at two places at once … so this is actually a review of what I’ve picked actually ^^;;

ight, below are my JPAE options chosen accordingly.

1. Accounting (NP)
2. Banking & Finance (NYP)
3. Accountancy (NYP)
4. Marketing (NYP)
5. Integrated Events Managament (RP)

XH
and I, practically picked the same Diploma courses and polytechnics.
^^;; Shuhua, picked the following - though, I’m not so sure about her
ranking of them - that is…

- Digital Media Design (SP)
- Accounting (NP)
- Business IT (NP)
- Intergrated Events Management (RP)
- Banking & Finance (NP)

Anyway,
after the JPAE application - we initially headed over to Lot1 for
K-box, only to realized that it was closed for renovation … =_=()
Then we ended up taking the train to Jurong East, for the K-box down
there. Over there, Shuhua applied for the free membership card using
the coupon that we had somehow gotten our hands on - when I went with
XH the previous week.

After the K-box session, we went our
separate ways. Shuhua headed back home, immediately while XH and I went
for dinner at KFC … and after which, went back to Hobbypoint for a
look. Then we went home by taking bus 160 ^^;; I also bought the
lip-balm of Skittles Raspberry Starburst from SH at her place, when we
went over for the JPAE application.

Btw, the Raspberry Starburst had fragrance but no taste ^_^  Just wanna advertise a little … ;P

=_=()

At first, I wanted to post at my blogger blog.  Since, its’ server is kind of unavailable right now … I guess, Friendster Blog works just fine …

Was asked to change PC and Seats at work today -_-()  This meant, great inconvenience.  Since, the latest assigned PC to me had yet to be upgraded - I was unable to access my emails … Hopefully, the MIS ppl can work out a solution by Monday.  Else, I would defintely die … since emailing Eve is my only source of entertainment while at work.

Secondly, Steven Teo (MIS guy) mentioned something about backing up the files … =_=()  documents wise, its’ okay.  I’m more afraid about losing my emails archives … =_=()

Merly went on maternity leave starting next week … *sigh*  I’ll feel more stressed now … =_=()  Had a very bad feeling about the upcoming week, as there’s a lot more things for me to get accustomed to … T.T

>_<  Me feel like dying liao lah T.T

On a lighter note, I had yet to buy XH’s b’dae gift yet … cause’ haven’t thought of where and what to buy her  …

Tomorrow and the day after, I had not much plans … so … I would take the opportunity to stay home and watch animes (catching up) and also to sleep my day away.  Basically, anything that would help me to relax ^^;;

Surprise…

Just found out that XH had a blog in Friendster !!!  Well, that’s good - maybe … since, its’ using the same password as her friendster account then she wouldn’t forget to update once in a while.  After all, her LJ blog she had totally forgotten the password liao … so even if she were to update, she cannot log in =_=()

I had updated her friendster blog link into my blogger blog. ^__^

I am still using blogger for the majority of my time, and only updated here - whenever I felt like it ^^;;

I cannot even remember the design of my blog here =_=() ;;  I had too many blogs lying around the place that I simply cannot remember which one I’m still using and which one I was planning on abandoning.

I had two LJ blogs, one personal and the other fanfics based.  1 chinese blog in clozone community, and 3 blogger blog.  One for Personal, one for reviews, and the other for fanfics-based ideas entries.  Last but not least, I had my friendster blog …

Well, seeing as this blog here is practically open for viewing =_=();;  I shall ask this one question, How’s everyone doing and faring in life lately ?  Referring to my ex-classmates, school-mates …

First Post Ever

Alright, I’d finally decided to do something of my friendster acct, so here’s it … A blog created by myself to make this acct not so empty. However, this blog is merely created out of obligation and not of interest. Therefore, you wouldn’t be able to find much of me in this blog.

I may or may not update this should I choose not to… For people interested in knowing more about me, do kindly let me know in school or elsewhere, so I might decide how much details to put up here. I might be a very difficult people to get along with, however, let me assure you… I’m not a ‘bitch’.

I won’t be typing anything too personal up here as I deemed privacy as important as my life. I wouldn’t rant, bitch, curse up here and most entries here would be friendly post, I wouldn’t want to risk provoking anyone since I’m well-known for my direct speech. I don’t think before I say anything, I merely blunt it out.

Shuhua will probably knows about it, there’s times we nearly lose our temper on each other and had to resolve the matter via regular emails to keep things calm between us. However, it was different for Xinhui. We know each other inside out, she say things directly to my face too which I retort back with my own. Our tongues are known for ’sharp’ and sarcastic. Provoke us and you get tongue lashes from us ^^;; Although, half the time it’s just vocal and no action.

I think that’s all I’m going to reveal for the time being, should there be any thing else you people are interested in knowing … drop me a msg.
