less than 3

see!!!
Baby Kynan (:

sleeping in his rocker machiam like a KING.

ahahahaha. i caught him yawn!
(thank god he's not like yaya or xuan xuan... who'd scream and strangle me and threaten to kill themselves or ME when i catch unglam shots of them..)

isn't he a handsome boy???
(a very GRUMPY one too)

(he just finished wailing, which explains why his face is quite red)
i tried to stuff the pacifier into his mouth but he spits it out within seconds. my mum says he get tulanzzz because after sucking so long he doesn't taste milk so he'd spit it out.

routine mouth exercises again..

he got very rowdy and excited and started kicking and punching into the air i don't know why..

smiling to himself...

wondering what weird gadget is in front of him...

he's just so adorable OMG.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
shopping with yaya at far east ytd after our econs paper (:
i was kinda down because i suck at exams.
and also because i've no time to study.
my mum's impromptu plans are part of the reason but i know i can't push the blame wholely on her.
it just that i can't study when there's revision week all these.
i'd feel lyk i've all the time in the world and take my own sweet time and start procrastinating and then become super RESTLESS.
xiuyi says she has this kinda problem too.
it just irks me so much.

and i feel lyk i'm drifting further and further away from sherilyn and yanling.
and it's like, our clique doesnt exists anymore.
idy is always MIA-ing.
sandra and xuan and audrey needless to say...
(ok, at least i hear about sandra from yaya..)
sherilyn and yanling are always together.
it's like since long time ago, it just didn't feel good because i always kinda felt left out when they talk about things or people that i dont know of.
at times, u just tell urself u can't possibly know everything about everyone.
but at times, u just feel really left out.
and then after frontpage, it worsened cuz i was kinda angry at them.
and now it just feels like i've no common topic with them and sometimes even dont feel like talkin to them.


after PACC, i dont know what we gonna do where we gonna go too.
it's like since FOM/Stats we said we're gonna go out after PACC..
and then now idy and yanling can't make it.
xuan and audrey just listlessly asks, go where?
and then it's yaya and me racking our brains thinking where should we go?
beach? picnic? steamboat? fly kite? bad-weather programme? budget?
and "sillily" gets all excited and yak on what we should do, what we should wear.
=.=
in the end, just maybe, only the two of us would end up going..
and ok, maybe sandra and maybe sherilyn?

feels good to have blab all these out, cuz it's been stuck in my heart for quite some time and stupid bestie wong hasn't replied my email which she promised to, that idiot!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok. enough of all these.


guess what!
something really stupid happened yesterday and yaya and i couldn't recover for a good 15mins.
we just had our dinner way upstairs at far east, and wandered around, and we were taking the escalator coming down from dunno which level, and before we even stepped off the escalator, some guy, (he looks normal. with a white tee and jeans) just pounced up and went really enthusiastically:
"hey guys! do your know where i can get presents for my mum? something unique and nice?"
i was totally in shock.
"who's this weird guy?"
"is he yaya's friend?"
"why does he act like he knows us?"
"do i know him? no i don't!"
and then i realized he's not yaya's friend cuz yaya's equally as shocked as me.
and i'm like, "ummm... present?"
"yeah, do you know anything unique and nice so i can get for my mum?"
-silence- (acting like we're pondering but our minds are totally blank)
"you guys look lost, do your get presents for your mum?"
i nodded, yaya shook her head.
and he went, "what do you guys normally buy?"
yaya said clothes.
i wanted to say cosmetic products too but i doubt it's suitable for him to buy.
he said he bought her a silvery dress last yr but she didnt wear.
then i asked if his mum goes for branded stuffs (cuz my mum does) but he said no.
so yaya told him to get bags.
and then!
there's this another guy that popped out of nowhere and he came and said,
"hey! you guys know ricky? (i don't if it's ricky or vicky or whatever "ky" cuz he spoke in those lousy american accent that i don't understand.) he's a guitarist from blahblah band."
and second wave of shock hit yaya and me.
i was totally stunned and speechless.
the first thing that came into my mind was,
"are they cahoots? am i on punked? is this some kind of prank?"
so he repeated the whole thing after "hey!"
and i shook my head and said i don't know.
and yaya said we just got to know him.
and he said "i just approached them about my mum's present."
i forgot how this whole thing end because 85% of the time i was in shock and 10% of the time i was looking around and checking there's no camera crew around or hidden cameras.
zzz.

we couldn't recover for a good whole 15mins.

and then we shopped till about 10pm?!
ahahaha.
she bought a dress for a freaking $69.90.
it was super torturous cuz first she was torn between buying or not buying.
next she was torn between black or white.
and this dress, she tried it around 5plus?
so she kept moaning all the way since then she wants it and likes it alot, and it's like poison.
hahaha.
typical shopping syndrome.
don't get ME started or else i'm worse than her.
i bought a pair of fake birkenstocks that's similar to xuan's.
soooooo comfortable. (:

c'est un message au hasard

aye, activity level's kinda low around here recently.
Finally, FOM and Stats are over!
I'm left with Econs and PACC this coming tuesday and thursday respectively.
FOM was quite disastrous for me. I can foresee a pass but definitely not good grade.
yeah yeah, i studied, but i mixed all the stupid truckloads of information up.
the question was asking for Market Segmentation and I answered with Market Positioning and yadda yadda.
oh wells. it's over.
like what my mother always says when it's not up to you to decide anymore, we'll just have to "听天由命"
Stats was relatively alright for me, except for the uncertainty with the probability question (which was never ever ever my forte anyway.) and the unweighted price index i remembered the formula wrongly, the rest i'm rather confident.

enough of all these rubbish.

i finally got my Daniel Yam dress and Mummy's finally got (another) Daniel Yam dress that she can wear for my brother's wedding.
(yeah yeah, in the midst of exam period! went shopping with my mummy! no wonder my FOM is disastrous. haha. i've to admit that's part of the reason too. my mum was so irritating cuz she kept asking me to go out with her to choose outfits, i almost quarrelled with her everyday, because i was feeling so stressed with exams.)
It's going to be held at Shangri-La Hotel, 2nd February 2008, Saturday.
I know many of you will ponder, "why daniel yam?"
haha, that's because it's not going to be a banquet but a wedding buffet.
there'll be solemnisation earlier in the day held there with only families, relatives and some close friends there, then tea ceremony, then wedding buffet in conjunction with celebration of baby's first month! (:
basically that's it, as far as i know, because i'm not very updated with the whole event.
what i know is probably changed a week ago for all i know.

the other day,(quite long ago) i was sms-ing my elder brother, when i knew about the weddding through my mummy (cause i assumed he didn't know as i'm always his information counter with regards to my eldest brother's activities.) and he actually replied:
"i already knew that a week ago"
when i JUST got to know it from my mummy!
how infuriating.

anyway, i'm inviting xiuyi! teeheehee.
cuz she's like family and i think she's met all my family members before.
will be accompanying her on 1st feb to buy baby shower gift and then have dinner with claire!
yay. quick quick!
ask me out after my exams! i like to feel busy and like a social butterfly!


oh and i just visited Kynan after Stats on Friday.
OMG he's getting cuter and cuter each time i see him!
but grumpier and grumpier too.
we don't call him "little piggy" or whatsoever anymore.
we call him "Grumpy Boy"! (named by my jie)
and when he frowns, (either just frowning cuz he's unhappy or frowning as a signal that he's all ready to start wailing again) i call that expression "苦瓜脸".
"key-yeop-da"
"mignon"

till after PACC then.

cuz i can't help falling in love with you

i can't help it. >.<
he's so ADORABLE!
i am missing him like crazy.
i haven't seen him for 94.5hours!
it's been so long i am really missing him to bits and pieces.

Rockabye baby, on the tree top...

Rock-a-bye, baby
In the treetop
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
When the bough breaks
The cradle will fall
And down will come baby
Cradle and all

Baby is drowsing
Cosy and fair
Mother sits near
In her rocking chair
Forward and back
The cradle she swings
And though baby sleeps
He hears what she sings

From the high rooftops
Down to the sea
No one's as dear
As baby to me
Wee little fingers
Eyes wide and bright
Now sound asleep
Until morning light
Proudly presenting, baby kynan (:

I'm a soon-to-be-kynan-obsessed-aunt

i HEARTS baby kynan (:

i'm kinda mean. cuz i like to disturb him while he's fast asleep...

there... he's sleeping like a pig (which is reasonable cuz he IS born in the year of pig)
we call him "little piggy" sometimes.

i went to ka jiao him so his mouth opened a little...

disturbed him further and he smiled!
(i was kinda irritated cuz he actually smiles in his dreams sometimes, but it's so short, fast and quick before i grabbed my camera, he's deep in slumber again. so i was whispering to him "you'd better smile for me to take a picture if not 姑姑 will keep disturbing you..." and he did! OMG.)

so happy...!

act shy. (after smiling. i think he knows i'm taking pictures.. hahaha.)

then not happy i say he act shy.

he's very sleepy already, and thus quite irritated i keep snapping pictures.

back to sleep.

my GEMs ended at 2pm, so i headed back to Jie's place with MacDonald's for lunch. Since I forgot to bring notes to study while waiting for 5:30 to come, i SQUANDERED away my time simply WATCHING baby kynan sleep.
suddenly, TV shows dont seem so interesting anymore. hahaha.
yeah yeah.
i know i've said i'm going to change my blogskin and all, but since nobody voted except for "sum1 related to doris", (this is madness. my own friends can't even bother to help me choose/vote and this random someone actually bothered to. makes you ponder who really are your FRIENDS huh? recently i begin to ponder the definition, or rather, MY definition of "Friends". kinda disheartening. and some few people should know what i'm referring to. which i am sure i can truly carve their names on my permanent "Friends" list.) i'm going to do so only after chinese new year.

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

and i think the crazy attention on xiaxue's recent post is totally uncalled for. LianHe WanBao has seriously got NOTHING better to do than to stalk xiaxue's every post, i realize. and whenever she makes some "socially-unacceptable" posts, they would magnify it 10,000,000times and publish it on their miserable newspapers and put xiaxue in the ugly spot.
come on la.
you mean you really seriously believe that she went for a sex-change?
i think ANY single person who read should know that it was JUST FOR FUN?
so now what, you're going to publish on your miserable newspapers that xiaxue is actually non-human, but a dinosaur from billions of years ago?
oh. i know, you're going to do what you're best at: cook up some rubbish that would blacken xiaxue's reputation again.
maybe like she shouldn't be kidding about these kinda things etc?

STUPID lor.

it's not that i'm saying all these to protect xiaxue or whatever. i'm not a fan of hers but i just enjoy her writing and reads her blog cuz it's kinda hilarious at times.
but i blatantly just feels that it's so ridiculous for a NEWSPAPER to be so closely monitoring xiaxue's blog to such an extent that they publish whatever she writes on their newspapers.

imagine you read on the newspapers someday:
Dawn Yang wrote that she wants to commit suicide! [print screen of her blog]
Nira wrote that she filmed a R-rated movie! [print screen]
Mr. Brown wrote that he's actually bi-sexual! [print screen]
and they were all joking.

it's so ridiculous i think LianHe WanBao etc should be regarded as TABLOID and not some respectable newspaper.
*rollseyes*

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

dinner with the GANS girlies and i'm officially one of them too since i still meet the criteria. WAHAHAHA.
i have never ever in my life imagined that one day, we would sit down and talk about nothing but NS!
thank you girls for the wonderful night, and you two will definitely be carved on my permanent "Friends" list dont worry. tsk tsk tsk.
albeit the fact that we have not met up for so long (specifically nat nat), i still feel the same old familiar heartwarming-feeling whenever i'm with you girls (:
meet up again soon my loves.
and stop whining about work and NS!
i think you two should start some Whine All-about Work Club soon too =P

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

cuz i made a stupid mistake, a stupid mistake...

i made a DAMN HUGE mistake.
i don't even know why i agreed in the first place!
it's as though i agreed to it in a drunken stupor state.

ARGH.

i don't even remember i agreed to it, it just suddenly popped into my mind today.
oh boy.
HELP!

took my 高唢 out today.
my (梢 or 哨?)盒 was loaded with dust and i highly suspect spiders are my 高唢's new best friend, and my 哨片 was so hard and parched...
then frantically searched for "喜庆胜利" 's 谱...
(one small secret here: frankly, i don't even remember if it's those kinda practice song or da zu song! can't even vaguely remember how it sounded like...)

oh boy oh boy.
i think i sounded worse than those zhong hua peeps blaring just across my block.
and i'm so breathless now.
and much to my horror, "喜庆胜利" is those kinda practice song...
i don't know what to do mann.
(wait wait, is it solo or what, shit! i forgot to ask! omhmc.)
i really don't know what's gotten into me to agree so spontaneously to perform!
ARGH!

Hello nice Mr. Joel Chng Zi Zhao! please go join the gong yan too.
Otherwise I think I'm gonna become a laughing stock.
(on second thoughts, maybe i should just tell them i HAVE second thoughts, which is true, and decided not to perform at all. seriously, i don't mind being 筹委. just don't ask me to perform..)

anymore typing i'm going to have a heart attack or asthma attack.
i need PHONE!
i NEED my xiuyi, but she's 91238374620847 miles away in Taiwan, probably enjoying shopping at XiMenDing right now, at this moment..
i want to call Doris but i think she's still working. with luck she might be on her lunch break?

OMG.

STUPID MISTAKE.

[edit]
omg i'm damn lucky. aft i hit "publish post", i punched doris' number and guess what, she's having her lunch break! LOL.
just ended the phonecall with her. i think we chat for almost an hour on random rubbish, but mainly CO stuff..
feeling a little teeny weeny bit better.

better go continue studying and prep myself for dinner with the "Girlfriends against NS movement" girlies.
actually, i don't mind joining but i definitely don't have what it takes to be the president.
and for me, i'd vote Natalie against Claire as the whinier one, so there, CONGRATULATIONS NATTY, PRESIDENT FOR THE GIRLFRIENDS AGAINST NS MOVEMENT! (:

photo-galore

super late photos:
watching the DHSCO 30th anniversary VCD...

seniors (senior-er than me)

at DXO. they insisted taking this pict cuz my halter top was very eye-catching under he UV-light. hahaha.

visiting Doris at work on 2nd Jan. (i woke up late so i skipped school =P)


My mum (3rd in the family) with my 4th Aunt (cannot tell she's teacher right?! she used to be Tay Wen Bin's chinese teacher at Gong Shang Pri but retire already...)

Me with my mummy, at Hariott. Table 11 (:

With my daddy (:

Mon mere et moi dans les toilettes.

haha. me again.

FINALLY! dessert! they serve dishes too slowly...

my mum's choice. (strawberry ice cream inside)

my dad's choice. (cookies and cream ice cream inside)

my choice. (chocolate ice cream inside)

------------------------------------------------------------------------
these are so cute:

i really like this:
Hello Kitty Contact Lens Kit. it's so super cute i feel like buying contact lens. LOL.
i think all of you must be going, "you must be kidding! you have perfect eyesight buy what contact lens!" LOL.
yeah true. but maybe, just MAYBE, i might go get those that darkens pupils...
MUAHAHAHAHA.
(i must be crazy)

Visit to Jie's house today!

oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Clementine Kynan Cheong!

my mummy feeding him left over breast-milk...

yum yum...

he was so wide awake after drinking. LOL.
first time la! normally he falls asleep even before he finished the bottle...

and he kept looking at me.
*shy*

lying on the sofa...
he seemed very interested in the TV show we were watching, but!
newborns can't see anything further than 25cm away from their eyes, so technically, i wonder what he was so interested in...

nope, not yawning. it's he's routine face exercise...

the "ummm" face. these 2 pictures were taken in multi-shot. so there, occured within like, 1.5seconds? (now you know what i mean when i say he has gazillion of expressions?)

i look very hideous at that weird angle but he looked so cute so i decided to upload it. LOL.

the TV show ended and he looked like this (above)

really dunno what he's looking at...

i was singing him songs like "twinkle twinkle little star", "mary had a little lamb" and "row row row your boat" and he kinda became sleepy.

today he's not so grumpy.
and even smiled several times! (: (: (:
aiyo. *melts*
