TEEEEE-RED

[edited]
i'm so (quote sheri) TEEEEE-RED!!!
pampering myself now with a full body moisturisation and a Garnier face mask.
am meeting NIGUS oh my delightful nigus tomorrow morning!!!
at like 1045 (i bet they planned 11 but 1045 in case we're late, which i bet we will) for brunch before my work. (i'm going for work one hour later, 130 and leave one hour later, 930)
can't wait to meet my lovely girls. FULL ATTENDANCE! (:

but i'm so TEEEEE-RED! haha. non-DBA08 must be wondering what's TEEEEE-RED.
it means TIRED. pronounce in some weird way invented by sheri. "tea-red" (not red colour "red", but red as in "rerd". well, something like that!)


i'm taking like, NINE modules this semester. (thanks alot GEMs! why must we have GEMs. now i'm grumbling about it. haha. when yesterday i was so psyched about field lecture. the irony..) because i've French. but other people have like dance practices and basketball and table tennis training and all..
and i'm thinking of picking up a CCA somemore! i'll be flat-out soon i think.
and then plus W-O-R-K.
breathe carmen, breathe!

no, i can't.

cuz i just have THIS MUCH to catch up. look at my CA2 scores.
65 for PACC, 60 for ECONS!
i need to buck up.
and what with the upcoming tests and projects and CIP thingy and all the homework.
oh mann.
i am really dreading semester 2 already.

1 week down, 14 more weeks to go.

i don't really want to think about the other things anymore.

[edit]
Alex is DAMN KIAM PA.

Hey! Gorgeous~

was supposed to go to this closed-door event at paragon's Miss Selfridge with Claire Neo Wei Ling.
but the stupid Hwa Chong girl received FIVE BLOODY ESSAYS as homework so we had to forgo it.
and i can't go on my own because she's the one who invited me. ):
BOOHOOHOOHOOHOO.
but after school, the Hey! Gorgeous people called, and they're filming yaya!
gosh.
so xuan xuan & i (since i've got nothing to do) stayed back to watch Sandra, Sherilyn and YaYa do their dance routine. (in case yaya's really chosen for the final 3 and she has to perform)
stayed from 5-830+
even watching and giving comments is TIRING.
i can't imagine how tired they are... LOL.

8am lesson today! ITAB somemore! god.
and we skipped PACC lecture (except ling ling & dydy, our en voyeurs to copy notes down for us) to wait with yaya at FC6 for them to come and shoot her. zzz.
and i was so scared they'd ask me why i nominate her...

we were anxiously waiting and waiting and waiting. it's like, we can see them! (they were interviewing some other people 15m away from us and all of us were so freaking nervous.)
and when they finally came, we shunned the camera (and yaya) like they had super contagious diseases. half my ass was falling off the seat. and sandra had to gimme a push to prevent me from falling. *aiyo!*

after the filming, we went to watch their dance routine and gave them more comments before heading for our GEMs seperately..

P.S. and on my way to GEMs with audrey, we saw Ben & Fiona. i took photo with Fiona! although i'm not like a fan of hers. haha. poor Ben. i wanted to take photo with her but they were all shouting "last one last one!" i think many guys felt like killing me for snatching with them when i don't really even idolise Fiona.

my module is so cool because we don't have tests! it's ICA module so it's solely going to be based on 2 projects.
plus we're going to have 3 field lectures! which means we would be hitting chinatown, little india or asian civilisation museum or blah (the teacher named alot of plausible places he might be bringing us) for lectures instead of staying in classrooms.
HAHAHA. the prob is i wonder how i'm going to rush back to SB for 3pm's Character Development... -.-
xuan xuan's module will be teaching them photoshop!!!
HOW COOL IS THAT!
but the irony is, she doesn't have photoshop! wahahaha.
whereas i have, on both desktop (from monk's sister's CD) and Vaio! (haha. Vaio is preloaded with Adobe photoshop! neh nanny poo poo! so cool right! =P)
now xuan xuan is bugging me for the photoshop. pffft!


*dasmond koh!* -melts melts melts and i think xuan xuan and i would be inseperable because all melted into a pool already-
okok, *nat ho* i can hear sherlim swooning with nat ho's name...
everyone thinks xuan and i have weird taste. we're not weird. we're special k!

haha. xuan xuan and carmen forever! (:(:(:
LOL. random.

yay. we finished editing the pictures:


still got fiona's. i look too ugly. don't want to upload. hahaha...
tata! tmr working at Vivocity's Courts. stupid Alan.
feel like boxing and punching him.
(random thought)

i'm so god-damn addicted to online shopping!
>.<
love these two tops:

$13 AUS.
$18 AUS

super love these 2 tops. haha. i think everyone should know why!
especially the tube. but it's POLYESTER LYCRA!!! i definitely so cannot wear it cuz it's sucha figure hugging material!!!
dammit. i'm still thinking if i should get the T-shirt. =P
rah.

TIRED.
shall go to sleep now. will blog about today and (very importantly), tomorrow's Hey! Gorgeous filming tomorrow night.
tata.

M.A.F. 2007

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! (belated)

went for Rogue Assassin with Lester then handed in my punch card at Sim Lim to Alex..
after which i spent my m.a.f rotting in my room and behaving like a spoilt brat. (throwing silent tantrums at home because my mother tidied up my room. and i wasn't exactly thrilled about it. now i don't know where all my things are. and to say that she had my interest at heart is overstatement, she just wanted an excuse to start her over-protective-plus-over-paranoid thorough spot check for i don't know what. evidence of crimes?)

and so, what does a spoilt brat do at home?
she plays with candles and lanterns outside her window:

so prettaye! although there's no moon. how nice it'd be if i could see the moon through my window. miss my old house!

carmeny's pathetic mid-autumn festival.

kiss my mid-autumn festival goodbye. muah-*

i REALLY like this picture alot. nice right?

i pity the kids nowadays. playing with those dumb and idiotic electric lanterns that goes "deh deh deh deh deh deh" with stupid melodies.
my m.a.f in the past is ALL about playing with candles and PAPER lanterns.
ever experience burning your fingers with fire? (by accident of course!)
i did. i still have the scar.
ever experience the feeling of hot wax on your skin?
i did. and it's fun. haha.
ever experienced burning up a paper lantern by accident?
i did. scary though.

i think kids nowadays are so OVERPROTECTED.
to the extent that they never experience ANYTHING at all.
haha. parents fret over ANYTHING and EVERYTHING.
boring.

met up with Doris today at Parkway.
xiuyi was supposed to meet us too but she backed out last minute because she was feeling low about her results.
BIG BEAR HUGS for bff! stop fretting. i know you'd do well. i know you will.

caught up with Bernard (my ex bossini in-charge) and Shah (my ex bossini colleague) while waiting for Doris. and met Gan Jia!!! (:
what a happy day.
all the travelling is worth it.

spastic photos from bus ride..
my hair looks terrible. so PONG. doris was covering her big fat pimple.

P.S. i wonder if it's due to stress, but why gan jia & doris have more pimples than usual?! and they have one BIG FAT ONE on their chin! haha. what coincidence.
okok. i think i can hear ling ling saying "zek ak!"

tata holidays ):

first day of Semester 2 today.
couldn't wake up although my phone was ringing off the hook(alarm)
my mummy had to pull away my quilt, my pillows, my bolster to wake me up before screaming until i got out of bed.

chionged to school without make up on except foundation. hahaha.
they were so not used to it.
started lessons lethargically.
PACC tutorial.
my results were disappointing. 65 for CA2. overall (40% weightage) 70.
so super disappointing. buck up buck up buck up!

slacked for 2.5hours. had lunch and chit-chatted.. catching up and gossipping and all.
went for Fundamentals of Marketing tutorial. zzz. BORING.
and then had another like what, 1hour break? because FOM was supposed to be a 3hour tutorial. but because today's only introduction, so it took 1hour plus instead.
slacked till it's time for Critical Reasoning Skills (CRS). oh boy, doesn't it just reminds us of GP?
we had to write a written response today for the teacher to gauge our writing standards so that he can arrange for us to go for either a workshop or do book record.

racking (wrecking) our brains on the first day of school!
hell tired and took the NEL train from Outram to Habourfront and then slept all the way to Serangoon.

my LOVELY DBA 08 friends.

aiyo, look like Auntie! ahahaha! (i know sherilyn sure revenge with those UNGRAM photos she has of me, but, heck! i shall attack her first. hahaha! -evil- )

(:(:(: Jun Xiang is right. Ling Ling and me REALLY VERY "NGAM".
(P.S. i only found out last night through Ling's friendster that Ong Jun Xiang was her facilitator during her first 3 months orientation at TJ! hahaha. caught up with Jun Xiang for a while during my break.. he said we sure very "Ngam"! and you're right Tarik! tsk tsk. )

there was this sudden UNGRAM photo craze... dydy got caught on ling's UNGRAM CAMERA. ya la, some people abandon Samsung den get new Sony Ericsson phone big deal lor. go around shoot people's ungram photos lor!
(haha. not that i'm really complaining. although i'm a Samsung fan, but i'm a Sony supporter too! tsk tsk. *sony craze*)

i scared ling ling take picture of me when i'm talking. so i covered my mouth. smart eh? caught on camera while talking hor, SUPER UNGRAM one lor.


haiyo.
i think i'm very versatile. LOL. very adaptable. hahaha. cuz you realize i'm typing in kinda singlish manner. spent too much time speaking in singlish at courts. =P
but all of a sudden if there's a ANG MOH customer my english become so fluent again.
LOL. die la. i think i need my own style. tsk.

first day of school... i am already beginning to feel the "taxing-ness" of everything. GOSH.
and YOU thought poly is easy life. think again!


it's like i don't know you no more...
well, what else can be said?

seems like we've really been through alot huh. LOL.

aiya. my hand short den she don't like the angle lor. she want higher angle. hahaha.

proud to present to you, my Sony Vaio creation. hahaha. I, ME, MYSELF arranged the display of the Vaios!

tada! display of the b-e-a-Utiful Vaio CR11 colours, namely Indigo Blue, Aroma Black, Blazing Red and Luxury Pink. (Pure White was not on display. instead that was the TZ17 Champagne Gold)
Alan was going, "mmm.. good... VERY GOOD! good..." on Friday night when he came to spot check us. >.< Calvin (Manager) chatting with Stephanie (my IT supervisor)...

Nicholas the Samsung promoter. he was the nearest so i started taking picture with him. LOL.

Joanne. the nice Delonghi promoter who gave me one whole box of butter cake that she baked during the demonstration yesterday. hahaha. she's very nice and helpful.. (:

stupid wayne. the one whom i complaint about and wanted to take his photo secretly and aim darts at his nose. hahaha. ok la.. he was like much much MUCH better to me subsequently.. besides always laughing at me or teasing at me. at least he's not threatening me or what?
i was scolding him for eating INSIDE my Sony Vaio booth...

my dearest Enna (is not) Banana! (haha. inside joke.) the canon girl and the sony girl.

Ah Pui (Winson. he was at Comex too!!) Christopher and the guy holding camera (i don't know his name) chit chatting. the guy holding the camera was testing out cameras and he took a picture of me when i was slacking around and chit chatting (gossiping) with Enna! and he printed it out with the Canon Selphy:

it's quite cool actually. Cuz it's like 4R size and it's a post card template behind!! haha. coolios.

Ah Pui's stomach damn solid. really. i pat before. super solid. can hide 3 babies inside. tsk tsk. and i caught a SUPER UNGLAM Christopher. aiyo, no image le la. he and wayne are like the only "good-looking" ones at Courts... -.- shows how limited choice we have there. HAHAHA! (although Enna strongly disagrees and thinks Eddie is cuter. see what i mean about "chit-chatting" with Enna?)

Victor, the Samsung TV sales rep..

Ting Hui. (or rather, Kaine. or should i add "Prince" in front? LOL.) fellow classmate cum colleague for 9 days.

Benny! the Sony Bravia promoter. Leon didn't come. or else i can show you all the "watch-your-back" guy. HAHAHA.

GUESS which one is my wallet?

Me and Mani!!
i'd always sing "money money moeny, money money, it's a rich man's world~" whenever Mani comes within my perimeters.. hahaha. he kept complaining to me his neck very painful last night because i shouted to Raj (P.S. it's RAJ, not RUTCH. the way people at Courts pronounce names are SUPER MISLEADING) "Raj!!! Mani bully me!" and he arm wrestled Mani's neck. hahaha.

i was ordered to sit on the chair and LOOK after my 10 Vaios. Uncle Wong walked pass and i was looking at him den Calvin shouted, "eh! ask you took LOOK after your Vaios arh! you look at Ah Wong for what! Ah Wong so old you also want ah! Yan Jing Kan Ni De Dong Xi!"
aiyo..
den very bored ma. everyone so busy packing up, den i sit there like posing like that.. so i took random photos..
that's Calvin in the background after screaming at me. (he joking only la..) den the one in black is the weird weird Home Appliances promoter who tried to feed me cookies and specially came to my booth to say bye to me almost every night one...
the other guy in blue is Courts staff Jason from IT.

the nice and cute Delonghi promoter who bakes very nice cheese cake! he will always keep some nice food for me. hahaha (:

tada!!! my Courts buddy Qi Ren! (:(:(:
he's a lucky man. (everyone says so. cuz Karen so prettaye!)

Jason! he keep repeating i must feel honoured because he rarely takes photos.. tsk tsk tsk.

HP promoter, Andrew. he asked me for Alan's number. (aiyo, not my number?) he wants to join Sony! LOL.

Karen eating Paddlepop. why i dont have! (tell you hor, life is unfair. pretty people get better treatment.. seriously.. everyone so nice to her, but hor, all bully me one lor. TUT. kidding la. tummy ache so i didn't take the other Paddlepop which was specially reserved for both of us.. haha. but what i said above is SLIGHTLY true lor. haiz.)

WAYNE. i will always remember him. this mean poke!
scared the wits out of me during my first few days at work...

(the pink CR11 he arrange one somemore. he really like pink so much ah?!?! -puzzled- he say he no girlfriend..)

Lucas! (Ting Hui's Acer partner. Sony's arch rival at the roadshow. haha. but can't help it. he's damn kick-ass good-looking.) *bliss*

Chris. didn't really like her cuz i had the feeling she don't really like me. but after the first few days, it was okayyy.. hahah. not much interaction la. but since she's the IT staff, should take photo with her.. =P

Stephanie! the IT supervisor.


Raj! my boyfriend. hahaha. SUPER nice to me (since i was doing data entry). always helping me and checking if i'm alright with all the work, can always count on him when i need help or in trouble or when i have questions.
especially grateful he will always come to my rescue with Wayne or Mani. hahaha. the two BADDIES.

it has been tiring, but helluva fun like Comex.
learnt alot. experienced alot. made alot of new friends. seen alot of things.

i really like the job. because i get to go to different places and experience different things.
different working environment, meet different people, different system.
at Challenger was super slack. at Courts was super stressed.
i hope Sony still has other roadshows for me!

think of me, think of me fondly, when we've said goodbye...
remember me, once in a while, please promise me you'll try...

i hope i have left a fond memory in the minds of ALL the people i have met at the roadshows...
(:
