My Samsung Z720 / Ultra Edition 13.8



ain't she a beauty? well, i've been contemplating Samsung Z720 or Nokia 6288 for the longest time.. (well, since my birthday) and now since my class has got lyk, 2 other people with 6288, it has lost its novelty. so i'm ALL down for my samsung Z720!!!

but my heart was broken when i went to the Samsung flagship store @ Vivo the other day. the dark violet is no longer available in Singapore! >.< style="" face="arial" size="1">(actually, there was still this mango top & this zara jacket and this zara bottoms......)
but i've managed to curb the impulse and the temptation! yay.
and we sat at a bus stop near my hse, drinking slurpee & eating shin ramen at night (:
instead of some "fanciful" places... e.g. marche/swensons/newyork newyork/jack's place/cartel (u get what i mean)
lalala.


went to town for awhile with my mummy today!
it's been a long long time that i last went shopping with her... due to work, and then school.
no wonder she's been so, erm... i-dont-know-what-to-say. capricious?
with mummy, it's always a love-hate relationship.
one minute u hate her, one minute u love her.
one moment, u'd wish she were dead.
one moment, u'd slap urself for wishing she were dead.
one moment, u'd wish she would disappear and make ur life less miserable and have more freedom.
one moment, u'd cry when u start imagining life without ur mum -- no one to discuss drama serials with, no one to go shopping with, no one to give u fashion SOS, no one to cook u your favourite dishes.
i dont know about all of you, but it's always been a love-hate relationship between me and my mum.
i know she thinks so too, because i KNOW i DO drive her crazy sometimes with my unrepentant attitude and my snappings at her sometimes.

yaw.
i'm a lard-ass.
NOW i start thinking about how i snap my mum sometimes in my moments of fury, i wanna slap myself.
but hey! i'm quite a filial daughter also lor. >.<
take for instance, today:
i carry our purchases
i open the doors for her
i shielded her from the teeny rain droplets
we hold hands (:
i dont think many daughters do that ya! =P
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- school's been great so far.
my class is a rocking bunch of people (:
aye.
but i think i'm already lagging behind in classes! alrightey.
i'd better start bucking up soon!
(and now blogging's the only way to keep my english standard up, cuz i barely speaks english in classes.. heh. although i know there's hardly any english standard left in me. =T )
half of DBA 08 at clementi's kbox (:

we rawk (:
that's us. our funeral photo.
we took super long to take this! cuz ANYONE and EVERYONE kept laughing randomly...
(死人脸）
yes. i'll look at this when i'm 80 years old and laugh my dentures off. >.<

that's all folks!
tata!

oh yarh! starting french lessons this coming friday. am so PSYCHED!!! (:
CIAO!

official first day of lesson (:

nothing much to blog about...
been real busy lately, what with juggling part time work at Bossini and school.


9th April:
Orientation First Day! met my DBA (diploma in business administration) classmates for the first time and we really rock! DBA 08!!! (: by the end of the day, couldn't kp our mouths shut and we were driving our facils crazy.

(oh ya. it's a lil weird that i'm actually "OLDER" than my very own facils. LOL. we're actually all born in 1989, but i already had my 18th Birthday Bash, so i'm technically older. haha. weird. )

10th April:
it was the School of Business Beauty Pageant and we were all trapped in the Convention Centre. i think the beauty pageant was really unfair, because we really did doll up our class representatives up, and i swear we were really better than some others that qualified for the finals. they were chosen basically because they scored points playing some stupid games lyk pictograph & wheel barrow & blah, which is so bloody unfair! cuz it's called a BEAUTY PAGEANT. moronic.

so yaya & i left during lunch break for DOWNGRADING our laptops. boohoo. miserable.

11th April:
SPICE notebook training. was really boring cuz 99% of the time i had no idea what the lecturer was talkin about. and my class & i spent the time blog-surfing, friendster-ing, and msn-ing (when we are seated front, back, left & right of each other. hee. )
KFC after that at Foodcourt 5. (oooh. did i mention SP has macdonald's, kfc, pizza hut & popular?! hahaha.)

12th April:
Singapore President's Challenge flag day @ eunos mrt. it was miserable. basically, there were practically all 50 of us from SP, vying for donators all around Eunos Mrt, and it's a pathetic thursday morning! everyone's working!
boo.
i only managed to collect around 11bucks. worst flag day performance ever for me. ):
went bugis for lunch, but me, idy, xuan xuan & yaya weren't hungry. so we went shopping! lala. & took neoprints! (:

and after returning our tins at SP, we went to pool at AMK. haha. i know i suck. >.<

13th & 14th was working.
15th worked till 2pm and met up with monk (((:
sighs. i miss him. cuz we never really get to meet up much.

today's the official first day of lesson.
well, no biggie. teachers here dont give you the stress and the scares and the threatens on your first day. heee.
in fact, it was a pretty slack day.
haha.

peekture!

first picture: me (da jie! cuz i'm the oldest >.<) together with shun ya (aka yaya, lao er, also born in 1989)
second picture: me & sandra (lao san!)
third picture: me & jia xuan (aka xuan xuan, lao si!)
fourth picture: me & yan ling (aka ling ling, lao wu!)
fifth picture: me & audrey (lao liu!)
sixth picture: me & idy (aka dydy "deedee", lao yao! i.e the youngest.)
seventh picture: me & sherilyn (lao qi!)

stupid picasa, i couldn't reverse the order for the last 2 >.<

i guess that's all? (: till later!

my mum's getting REAL annoying. she's so paranoid and unreasonable and a mrs-must-know-all. if there's things that she doesn't know about, she'd flip. because my dad normally fetches me home from work, so we talk more & then i wont feel lyk repeating so i didn't tell her (sometimes) and she'd feel left out and get unreasonably mad.

THEN, she's really being sucha pain because:
#1, whenever i lock the door in my room, she'd rummage for her spare key and OPEN without knocking or anything. my dad would simply just knock.

#2, i was casually pointing "hey! that's the phone(Z720) i want! that's the phone gor gor wanna buy for me!" when i saw the advert on TV just now, and she was lyk, which gor?!? dont buy lar! u want to buy handphone for what? yours still can use wad. somemore u in poly, later pple steal ah! and i get all frustrated and MAD. even my dad has been askin me to change a phone.

#3, she kps packing my room when i told her i want to do it myself. and she'd retort that i'd NEVER get it done. and she would causes alot of unnecessary damage to my room because (a) i dont know where my stuffs went and (b) she would discard some stuffs that seem unimportant but are in fact IMPORTANT.

#4, she restricts me from shopping, from buying clothes, from going out (not exactly la, but she'd pester who i'm going out with, where i'm going, what time i'm coming home... blah blah blah. which makes me irritated.) and she is even meddling with my time management such as interfering when i should/should not work.

it's plain annoying. because i feel that she wants to gain control in WAY TOO MUCH of my life. although i'm not an adult, i'm a SEMI-adult! i'm 18!!! (already!) i think she should get used to it. rah. and stop meddling with all my affairs and MY LIFE!
i know she has my concerns at heart, but all these should be done adequately!
and i just really dont wish to quarrel with her/snap at her. because i'd feel all guilty and feel like i shouldnt have done that and den become miserable.
but if i dont retort, i'd also feel all miserable and unhappy cuz she's not giving me FREEDOM.

ARGH!
i wish "养儿一百岁，长忧九十九" is so untrue.
i wish.

BOO!

i'm currently in SP's computer lab now..
re-configuring my Vaio.

I'M FREAKING SAD!
because SP doesn't support Vista and thus, have to re-configure to Windows XP and blahblahblah super lots of hardwares and softwares are missing.

BOO! stupid SP. hurry up keep up with Microsoft larh!
Ngee Ann is Vista capable already lor.
and to think that SP is still Vista incapable!
i feel so cheated.
they could have just told us what we would go through if we're buying a notebook from outside SP what. den i would seriously reconsider buying Vaio although i LOVE IT SO VERY MUCH.

because i've been here since 130pm with Shun Ya (yaya) doing the self certification in this bloody cold room and it's raining heavily outside.
and then then then then then!!!
what's the difference when they reconfigure ALL the student's whatever-wares to the same leh? den i buy my lovely Vaio for what?
cuz i cant use Vista, i cant use Adobe Premiere, Adobe Photoshop, Sony Music Studio (blah blah blah blah blah) whice are the reasons why i got my Vaio in the first place (besides its lovely appearance. ha. laugh. i'm superficial. whatever!)

so now, yaya and i are stuck here, DOWNGRADING our notebooks.
RAH. i hope by next yr or sth SP will be Vista capable lor!

ROAR.

FREAKING SAD AND ANGRY!

so far so good

"first impressions aren't always right"


this is something i've learnt from "Legally Blonde" and i really really believe it with all my heart and also from the deepest corners of my heart. (:
orientation: so far so good.
class is so much better than 0631. (no offence, tiara hottie)
and we're seriously a noisy bunch of people. (minus the few quietsy ones.)
the facils were nearly going to bang their heads on the wall and bleed to death if they could, to get our attention by the end of the day cuz we're all busy chit-chatting and nobody's listening to them!

but still, we're very thankful for Amelia, Joyce and Azmi for their contribution to making us break ice so quickly!
my class has 19 pple in total.
Girls:
Audrey
Carmen
Yan Ling
Shun Ya
Sherilyn
Idy
Jia Xuan
Sandra
Hui Hsien
Qi Zhen
Celine
Hong Ning

Guys:
Yew Tat
Andrew
Elfie
Bryan
Ting Hui
Tommy
Jia Long

yay. superb memory. (:
everything is going on pretty well... i think we're catching a movie tmr! omg! who has class outing so fast one la, you tell me!
nya-ha-ha-ha.
everything's good except carmeny's body.
temperature is fluctuating. sometimes feverish, sometimes fever, sometimes normal.
and...

tissue is my current best friend (:

new lease of life

so, another chapter of my life is beginning!!!
orientation starts tomorrow! got to be in the SB (from now on, SB = School of Business) foyer by 9am.
rather psyched about it. (as in, school starting, not orientation. haha. there's a difference?)
yeap! but the dreadful thing is i dont know my schedule for orientation! besides reaching there by 9 and that i need to bring extra clothing, i know practically NOTHING else! boo.
(cuz blur poke me went to throw away the bloody pamphlet while de-cluttering my room)
so i cannot do my self-certification of my Vaio cuz i dont know my schedule. hence dont know when i'm free, hence cannot book a slot.
and although booking a slot is not necessarily needed, i dont wanna carry my Vaio there for nothing in case i wont be free the whole day. (i mean, it's orientation what! need notebook for what?) and i'm afraid i'll LOSE IT.
i'll seriously get slaughtered if i lose it.. and before i get slaughtered i think i'll commit suicide first.

rahhh.
random blabbering.
maybe because i just took a couple of panadols.
I'M SICK! down with flu with an itchy throat and slightly feverish.
just before orientation!
how great.
i think working 12/6 today worsened my condition. ):
bernard owes me too many favours lor. (i'm standing in for Yati today)
i hope some miracle happens and i'll recover tmr!!! pretty pretty please?!

-ah choooo!-
i really did just sneezed. thanks, to whoever the higher power that just gave me the reply.
ALOT.

the so very missed girly times

HAPPY (BELATED) BIRTHDAY TO MY DEAREST BESTIE!!!
love love many many loves! <3

woke up early in the morning to complete the incomplete pressies for her.
there were 18 in total! (: to celebrate her (belated) 18th birthday!!!
i'm so happy that she likes ALL of them!
secretly, a small part of me was worried that our tastes have changed and we might not see eye to eye.
but i was relieved that she liked all the pressies! yay!

and it was time for some girly times!
we just simply read magazines together and chit-chatted (:
and after that went through all the stuffs in my wardrobe, and my new dressing table, and study table. haha.


TADA!
the brownie cake i baked for her. or rather, microwaved for her.
nya-ha-ha-ha.
sprinkled lotsa rainbow rice on top! (:

6 years and going <3


watched tv with my parents...
and then more girly gossiping in my room (:

the so very missed girly times with my beloved,
my absolute bff <3

can you keep a secret? (edited)

oh my holy mother cow.


my timetable is out! (finally!!!)
it sucks i tell you. SUCKS!
look BELOW.


RAH!!! i end at 1700 EVERYDAY!!! (except wednesday, hohoho! i bet all of you are jealous because u all have to go to school literally EVERYDAY!)
and please look at wednesday!
three whole freaking hours of god knows what lecture!
oh my god.

and look at friday! four whole hours hanging there with nothing to do.
gosh.
and i lost my pamphlet. so i dont know what time i'm supposed to be in school.
lucky SP relies on internet rather much.
i guess i've to be there by 8? oh wells. my dad can fetch me (:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

am really angry with bernard today. ):
i'm almost glad and jumping with joy i dont have anymore part time until next saturday.
roar.
it's some long complicated story (as usual)


**decided to delete all the stuffs because
#1 i dont feel too good blabbing about bernard ): (and it wasn't really anybody's fault but just some stupid misunderstanding -- i'm talking bout the wallet. i'm still mad at him for nagging at me because if he didn't, all the things that happened later would not have happened.)
#2 i dont wish to get into any trouble because a friend/colleague at isetan got into trouble bloggin about her supervisor.
sighs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i realise, as we grow older, our tongues gets looser and longer.
in the past, i remember...
if i were ever told a secret, it would really be sworn to secrecy.
threaten to kill then i would tell. haha. like threaten to torture me with hot irons, blah blah.
else i'd never tell anyone.
-bites tongue-


but some how, tongues wag as we grow, and it gets looser.
it's weird, come to think of it.
is it because as we grow older, we have more and more secrets to tell, and to keep, that we no longer remember what's to tell and what's not to tell? (sometimes i really cannot remember is what someone told me a secret or not..)
or is it the scope and area of a "secret" has grown so wide and so loosely used that even a gossip can be considered as a "secret", that nobody bothers to keep a secret anymore.
or is it, as we grow older, we no longer have the dignity, integrity, and the determination to keep a secret anymore, like we used to when we were young.
some food for thought?

dhsco -- my home, my pride

DHSCO Gold With Honours 2005 (SPOT ME! haha.)

oh. and i really really cannot imagine the 2007 one coming out.. because instead of 郭令强， the face smack in the middle would be 吴晓钟's!!! nya-hahahaha!

First of all,

CONGRATULATIONS TO DUNMAN HIGH SCHOOL CHINESE ORCHESTRA ACHIEVING GOLD WITH HONURS ONCE AGAIN!

I really really cannot fathom what would happened if we didn't ):
devastated would probably be an understatement. and honestly, i was rather worried that we might not get gold with honours as both the songs didn't sounded anywhere near spectacular.
but but but but but!
i have to say, dhsco '07, i'm really really proud of all of you.
not only have you all not disappointed me, but honestly, during the performance on the SCH stage, you guys really did touch my heart with the set piece. (渐快的凉风)
(or maybe perhaps it's because after a few horrible torture to my ears before your turn, you guys were like a breath of fresh air! haha.)
i was rather touched.
i believed all of you have put in your heart to it. because:
音乐要发自内心，才能进入内心。
and you all really touched my heart. the set piece was really good.
but for 橘颂，it was a teeny weeny bit disappointing because i think that the zhong suo did not edge in smoothly.
to say it more blatantly, it's like 屈原 was galloping on the horse and the horse suddenly tripped over a stone.
yeah. that kinda feeling.
anyway, that was the small little glitch, but i certainly hope that would not cost us the Top Three.
and be sure that i'd pray real hard today that DHSCO gets into the Top Three! (:

some disappointment:
i bought my Vaio C already. but it's B-L-A-C-K!!!
not W-H-I-T-E!!!
cuz mr.daddy just wont let me get white because he said it'll get dirty easily and the keys would turn a grotesque yellow after time...
boo!
