Your EQ is 153

Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.

Seriously though, your whole "Don't Worry, Be Happy" philosophy is really what defines emotional intelligence.
You're warm, open, and very optimistic. You know how to act appropriately, even if you don't feel like it.

You are a good communicator, and you have little difficulty with personal relationships - even when you're dealing with difficult people.
In general, you are successful, capable, together person. You get what you want out of life.

What's" Your EQ (Emotional Intelligence Quotient)?

The 101 way to identify TRASH in the household

2008-03-12T08:00:00.003+08:00

Apparently something must have managed to agitate me enough for me to post on my blog after such a long period of inactivity. Apparently, i have to come realise i have a piece of trash in my household. And here is how you identify one,

1. The trash is usually a total complete idiot when it comes to technical knowledge. The only terms it knows are MSN, Games, and some others insignificant programs. Should there be a problem with anything that affects the above mentioned programs, the trash will just sit there helplessly and attempt to ask for help. If help is not rendered, it will start to sulk and create some form of commotion or another.

And what's the ironic part, should you attempt to borrow resources from the trash in order to fix the problem that it is complaining of, it will constantly sulk and nag.

Conclusion - Learn to troubleshoot and fix your own fucking problems. I am doing you a service and I am not one at your beck and call. Your constant naggings just prove to me that you do not even attempt to pick up such simple things when i am rectifying such issues.

2. The household trash learns to make use of higher authorities to make its stand known. It doesn't help that it has the power to cry and act pathetic. Being somewhat the eldest in the household, i am suppose to give way and be understanding to its plight. Addtionally, me, being delightfully brash of mouth does not put me in a good stand to explain.

Conclusion - I am delighfully brash of mouth but that does not mean that what i say is wrong. In the event that you think that we still belong to the 20th century, WAKE UP pls. This is the 21st century, people around are constantly changing and i am NO exception. If u expect me to be the perfect model you dream of, i will definitely dissapoint you. I will still take constructive critcism no matter how much i don like it. Please do some soul searching and do not assume i am in the wrong all the time. Oh and yes, stop telling me about work ethics and attitude, i know you all have more experience then me and wishes to impart to me such experience. But rest assured when it comes to work, i know how to carry myself as an individual. Not every fucking thing in the world is linked to a bedroom or some 'ownership' theory. I sincerely ask for your understanding in this matter.
Oh, and to the trash -Being compromising has its LIMIT. I am not one to compromise on all things. If you don like it, then learn to accept it. u have wasted 20 decades of you life the moment you failed something of significant importance. And being the strong headed you and probably afraid of embarassment, you decided not to embark on the most direct route and took another one which wasted additional resources. While others may not (want to or dare) say it, i for once have no holds barred and will not be afraid to voice it out. Advice to you have turned on deaf ears and i think they will remain so.

I am more of a liberal soul in the sense that i am not one to keep things and let them pass. My opinions will be voiced one way or another. When face to face confrontations lead to more mis-communications and conflict, perhaps this would be a one off solution to prevent more face to face confrontations. I am not always right, but that applies to all. Your seniority does not give u the 'I AM ALWAYS RIGHT' tag. Its time we slow down and learn to understand and appreciate things.

And to the trash - The above para does not apply to you and will remain so till you learn your lessons.

北海道 Day 3

2007-12-21T13:01:00.000+08:00

Rise and Shine!!

First up we went to a park located near the hotel but i forgot the name so i will update when i remember :P That aside, the morning scenery here is quite astounding due to the snow from the previous night.

1/2 water, 1/2 ice =)

Stairway to Heaven...or Hell

All is calm before the storm...

And so the day progresses...and as we travel...we got bored..and decided to munch on strawberries...and now u know why i know like and eat JAPAN strawberries(ichigos)!!!
Behold! the mighty ichigo!

Sheer sweetness n juicyness hahaha

and after a while as we moved away from the eye of the storm into the storm..we hit this

A grand contrast from this morning

But all that was worth it! we braved the storm( in the bus -_-") for about 3 hrs to make it to another sea food market~!

Asa-Ichi

This is one of the sea food markets or maybe one of the best in Hokkaido, and also where we stopped for lunch. Lunch was basically steam boat. It came with a standard set with greens and 1/2 a crab per person

A standard set for 4!

What makes this place special is u can order side dishes from the fresh seafood available downstairs and they will bring it up to you. Ok here is a tip if u r planning to eat this when u go there - When placing your orders for the seafood, regardless of how u wanna eat it, say u wan sashimi. This is beacuse they will de-shell the crab shells n stuff leaving only the meat faciliating you if u wanna cook n eat it too. Although, eating the crab sashimi raw is good, the meat is supple n sweet yummy! Price is a little on the steep side, approx 200SG per crab, but then when u r here, u must at least give it a try yea~

This is considered small...*shrugs*

So after a fulfilling lunch, we proceeded to the next destination, where by then the sky is already in the evening mood.

Heritage Village

Will update the name, but for now this place is where the preserve the heritage of the people of hokkaido and this is where u can see old houses and stuff.. the snow was a added bonus, adding to the serenity of the place.

wahhhhhh
Peeka...
Boo!
Any mail??

With that we moved along to the ladies fav section - Shopping! Located at Sapporo!
But first..some pics on the way and a clock tower..

JR Clock Tower

Hmm basically this tower provides nothing except for you to snap a few shots thats it.

i look toot in this pic hahahaha so see the bg not me

However, along the way to this clock tower, we came across this Eiffel Tower Look alike and mind does it look much better with the night lights! compared to this clock tower. Well we cant get to go up tho...

Beauty~

K for the ladies, shopping time.

Sapporo Underground Shopping

Not a lot of stuff to shop for guys, but well it is more of a ladies land here, selling stuff like necklaces, precious stones in this place know as Stone Market where dear got herself an amethyst necklace and another crystal necklace. Boots are also in abundance there and their bakery sells good food! Cheese with apple buns are yummy!

Ladies- watch the shops
Guys - watch the ladies!

JR Tower 38

As the name implies, u get to watch the night view of sapporo on the 38th floor, the tallest level.
In an earthquake prone area like japan, 38 floors is already considered a feat so we cant really ask for more can we hehe..but then again, night views are always fascinating :P

take 1
nice tree!

Which reminds me, the gents gives u the night view while u r er...settling your business hahaha
Due to the circumstances i am not able to provide a shot lol..
After this...starving people proceeded to dinner..

Ramen Republic

As the name implies, it sells ramen. Supposingly only the top 8 ramen are selected to set up stores here and they undergo voting every 6mths, where inferior stores are eliminated.

Voting form
My ramen

To be honest, i don really like it. The soup base is too salty for my liking...but perhaps the japanese like it. Next - more shopping!
However, one thing to take note in Hokkaido.. shops close at 8pm/9pm...so that leaves you with very little time after dinner...

The outside...

The nights lights may be captivating, but it is actually snowing heavily when i took this shot.
After which we walked back to the hotel.. stopping along the way to shop at Lawson, which is a similar version of 7-11 though 7-11 is also in japan. Bought some crepes and drink before going back :D

Strawberry crepe and milk tea!

k bah, i shall end day 3. Inc day 4!

北海道 Day 2

2007-12-19T17:33:00.000+08:00

Snow mobilesIt's cold nuff said =xTime to start the engines with this.

Snow mobiles come in 2 types, single n double. 10000 yen 1hr for single and 15000 1hr for double. So we took a double snow mobile and proceeded to follow the guide. Fyi, navigating the snow mobile requires no special skills what so ever, u just need your thumb to increase n slow down the machine as well some sense of judgement when making turns.
So after driving 1/2 the journey, we stopped atop this huge snow field to take photos.
the snow was abt 6cm deep, so basically we tried to walked in the footsteps others have taken.

You want a snowfight?! here is one!

hmm...where is the snowman?! strangeeee

So after which we took the snowmobile back with dear driving back this time...as she drove down the slope she speed up to my horror and also sped up during the turning points lol.. i was telling her to slow down when turning and after a while i gave up lol its nice to have fun once in a while yea :D

Hakodate Volcano

We took a cable car up this dead volcano and the scenery from a bird eye's view is breath taking. I think even the pictures cannot do justice do what we see.

a bridge seen from above

Another view from the top..

Upon reaching the top we proceeded to take photos :D

Christmas Tree!!
Snow capped Volcano

After which we proceeded to the base of the volcano for lunch, at the same time to do some shopping near the bear ranch located there. some random musings here

Freaking big n juicy apples!!!

I doubt u will find such apples in singapore and at 330 yen they are a steal!
Now comes the pain..4 hours bus journey to our next destination!

random shot along the way :P

Sea food market

As we visited this sea food market at night, the number of people is generally lesser thus allowing us to get some shots in here and there.

Say Cheese!
I am FRESH! BUY ME! 8000000 yen cheep cheep!

Someone should hire her as their spokesperson >_>

After which we settled down for dinner, dinner was salmon set which is yummy!!

Bon appetite!
Big anot lol

Hakodate Night View

Ok la nothing much to say, so i shall just let pictures do justice. It's one word - breathtaking.

After which we proceeded to the hotel for the night. =)
Day 3 coming up!!

北海道 Day 1

2007-12-19T00:37:00.000+08:00

i

Some updates from Hokkaido, although it is stated as a 7 days trip, it includes the forward n return trip. so essentially the 2nd day is the start. For simplicity state i will just label it as day 1.

So upon arrival at Osaka Kansai Airport we made our way to change into long johns and winter clothings.
As u can see, warmly clothed people are happy people :P

Sapporo Beer Factory

Our first stop is the Sapporo Beer Factory where we get to appreciate the process of making beer and also a chance to drink free beer. The trip was not particularly interesting to be honest but the free beer and the little kiddies are nice tho.
This is the view from the factory gallery, as u can see, the lake is frozen.
Did i mention kids? u have to admit it, japanese kids are kawaii ne~ but somehow they do not really respond well to me.. i must have look damn intimidating ;o

Ainu Cultural Village

Basically the village allows you to understand the culture of the Ainu ppl, which involves them playing some music n dance.. but i think we were all too cold to appreciate it lol.. all eyes where on the heater in the room tho :P

The Ainu ppl believe in the dogs bears and owls as their spirtual guardians and actually rear them in the village. The bears are surprising tame tho.
That is a real bear, i am not joking.. ._." wonder y i am hiding behind dear :P

The Ainu Village lake is frozen solid as u can see above.
With that i shall end Day 1 of the Hokkaido Trip. As u can see, the days are short in winter and 4pm is actually night and so trips start early and end early naturally.

Hell's Hot Spring

When we reached this area, there was a snow storm going on and we had to use umbrellas to make our way up the small hill.. which is very slippery and hence a lack of pictures.. however..the entire hill is filled with CROWS..yes and they r freaking huge compared to the singapore brethrens which are puny! haha! The reason why the crows are there is because of the sulphur smell.Welcome to Hell

After this we moved back into the hotel room. The first day is always special as they said and we are no exception. We r required to don our Yukata for dinner hence a few candid shots :P

BAKEILO!
BAKEILO! x2!! LOL

And a little anticipation of day 2. Snow..and lots of it

The golden compass

2007-12-08T20:56:00.000+08:00

All in all the Golden Compass is not a bad show, kinda interesting to know of parallel worlds n universe :D
Daemons r interesting tho, so i did a test and tadaa this is what i get. Bear in mind that the daemon is in adolescent form and will change according to what feedback u guys do for 12days before it settles down =)
Just a little side story, daemons r actually souls of human in a more corporeal form. As a child, the daemon seeks to shape shift till it finally settles down when the person reaches adult =)

Tifa!!

晴天雨

你说你是雨天
而我是太阳耀眼
说我不适合出现在
你住的灰色世界
想晒干你的泪
却被你简单拒绝
在我手心里的温度
好想要分给你一点

我忽然期待天空能下一场雨
让我在冰冷的夜慢慢了解你
晴天雨天谁说不能想恋
我偏偏只想和你在一起
今天明天我都不想远离
我能够期待晴天下的雨

你说你不怕黑
一个人也无所谓
独自撑伞走过伤悲
不再和爱有关联
我想要带你飞
飞向彩虹的另一边
我们搬进幸福里面
一直到永远的永远

我忽然期待天空能下一场雨
让我在冰冷的夜慢慢了解你
晴天雨天谁说不能想恋
我偏偏只想和你在一起
今天明天我都不想远离
我能够期待晴天下的雨

晴天雨天谁说只能对立
我偏偏只想和你在一起
美丽美丽好浪漫的晴天雨
我们的天空不再孤寂

晴天雨天谁说不能想恋
我偏偏只想和你在一起
今天明天我都不想远离
让我期待晴天下的雨
让我们的天空不再孤寂

9月7日追求成功的人

2007-08-17T12:07:00.000+08:00

9月7日出生的人一辈子为了追求成功所付努力与心血，简直可以写成一部励志小说，换句话说，他们在一生中将遭受许多困难与挫折。通常，［成功］是条漫长的路，他们所面对的与将十足的多样化并充满冒险性。但是，除非已经达到当初想要追求的目标，否则这些充满决心的人是永远也不会放弃的，就算是要付出临终最后一口气的代价，他们也绝不会松手。

这个世界并不能很快地了解或含意到这些人，但是，赁着他们的意志力与深具开创性的观念，出生于这一天的人终能赢得众人的认可。然而，令人不解的是，9月7日出生的人可以在自己的领域中轻易爬到最高的位置，甚至在相当年轻的时候就能功成名就；可是一旦成功了，他们却会失去了奋斗的目标。因此，有些人会在这时放弃已拥有有的一切，让自己［归零］，从另一个领域重新出发，迈向另一个目标，当然，这种行为会令家人和朋友感到相当错愕并难以接受。

令出生于9月7日的人萦绕于心的，并不是成功本身，而奋力去达成目标的过程。他们拥有一颗一意向前冲的心，好让他们可以遵循自己的计划，赢过竞争者、死对头或毁谤者。今天出生的人不会是令人感到愉快的敌人，因为他们歼灭对手的心意是非常强烈与坚定，一旦下定决心要拼出胜负时，也不会有所谓的妇人之仁。但是在另一方面，他们却是绝佳的盟友和朋友，至少对那些与他们站在相同利益的同一阵线人士而言是如此，此时就必须要求他们忠于某些共同目标或原则。

当9月7日出生的人人事科技或高度专业化的工作时，除他们已经完全掌握该领域的相关要素，否则绝不会半途而废。他们对自己的工作会表现出绝大的忠诚，如果他们是领导或管理的人，更会将团体的目标、属下或工作人员紧紧地凝聚在一起，成为一个动作很顺利的单位，也不会质疑真正的老板是谁或工作目标是什么等问题。出生于今天的人通常会成为家中的主脑人物，他们会给小孩与配偶一些方向或为他们打气，却绝不宽容不服从的行为。然而，当他们的孩子到了青春期时，真正的问题也就发生了。矛盾的是，虽然他们会训练子女、要求子女们要独立自主且为自己设想，但他们自己却十分缺乏这方面的技巧，无法处理一些因此而产生的难以避免的摩擦。

如果他们能更冷静一点、学会和别人一起分担责任，或者更加融入团队的话，必能更加成功。越是不关心控制权上的得失问题，他们自己以及他们所属的团队就越能得到工作上的成功。出生于这一天的人会随着年纪增长而更加成熟，但有些人会因此而失去竞争力。也许，对他们来说最理想的生活，就是在人生的最后几年才得到期望中的成功。可是，如果他们感到自己的梦想已被安排妥当，甚至从不了解自己的梦想是什么，反而会活在平静的心情中。

Went with Dear to high tea yesterday at Conrad Hotel and it was kinda fun overall.
Strange u ask, what can be so fun with eating? Well u will see soon enough.
Arrived at 330pm where it started to pour heavily and we both do not have umbrellas and i ended up running over and asking for an umbrella from the concierge.. nice ppl.. tks again ^^

And so we walked over to the lobby lounge.
And now comes the food...err...sugar..

Heart Shaped sugars ^_^

So we ordered a asian and a western set...

So i told her she can break up with me and then 表白 to me and she said no need courage for my case so must 表白 to someone else O_O!!!! Gals...unfathomable lol

一千遍我爱你

就算是轻轻的呼吸心还是感觉痛
没有你的日子里我变得好脆弱
轻轻一碰
仿佛就要飞走
口袋里的双手曾被你温柔紧握
布满思念的空气该怎么去摆脱
天灰的好寂寞
快乐悲伤被你左右
说一千遍我爱你都不够
就这样不贪心我慢慢的走
只要有你陪着我
再苦我能承受
说一千遍我爱你也都还不够
有一天我总会看见幸福的彩虹
相信你给的承诺
我等候

Would u be there?

2007-05-26T12:56:00.000+08:00

If I were blue, would you be there for me,
And whisper in my ears that's ok.
Would you stand by me, let me hold you tight,
And say you love me one more time.

If I feel good, would you slow dance with me,
And touch my lips with tender loving care,
Would you die for me, would you run with me,
And never look back..

Would you be there to love, to be with me?
Would you swear that your love is always true?
Would you say that you'll always be the one,
to take my breath away?

Would you be there to love, to be with me?
Would you swear that your love is always true?
Would you say that you'll always be the one,
to take my breath away?

Would you be there..

That aside yesterday after dear and i went over to buy the new battery at SLS, i decided to bring her somewhere to eat. Alas the blur me, i wasnt sure with the directions so we took a small walk before realising it was infront of us :P

Located at Prumba Street near the National Library.. Miss Clarity Cafe

Your Love Life Secrets Are

Looking back on your life, you will have a few true loves.

You're a little scarred from your past relationships, but who isn't?

You expect a lot from your lover - you want the full package. You tend to be very picky.

In fights, you love to debate and defend yourself. You logic prevails - or at least you'd like to think so.

Break-ups can be painful for you, but you never show it. You hold your head high.

Your Love Life Secrets, Revealed

爱的主旋律

2007-04-11T19:22:00.000+08:00

男：是你在那个雨季走进我生命
带着一点任性和温柔的表情
女：是你在那个雨季赶走了孤寂
温暖的笑容换我仅有的甜蜜

说我傻的可以还不是因为你
男：是你的声音

I am gonna learn this song wahahah :P

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

So a simple train ride home was sidetracked into a trip to vivocity~
Where we chanced upon this restaurant~ Earle's Swensen's
This place has the ambiance and a pretty cozy layout~ especially if u get a seat with a sea view, which we did :P
Nuff said, let the pictures do justice here.

simplicity at its best~

Dinner was simple with us sharing some finger food n dessert
Some sneak preview ^ ^

I Finally Found Someone by Bryan Adams

2007-03-25T21:40:00.000+08:00

I finally found someone, that knocks me off my feet

I finally found the one, that makes me feel complete
We started over coffee, we started out as friends
It's funny how from simple things, the best things begin

This time it's different, dah dah dah dah
It's all because of you, dah dah dah dah
It's better than it's ever been
'Cause we can talk it through
Oohh, my favorite line was "Can I call you sometime?"
It's all you had to say to take my breath away

(Chorus)
This is it, oh, I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one, to be with every night
'Cause whatever I do, it's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone, ooh, someone
I finally found someone, oooh

Did I keep you waiting, I didn't mind
I apologize, baby, that's fine
I would wait forever just to know you were mine
And I love your hair, sure it looks fine
I love what you wear, isn't it the time?
You're exceptional, I can't wait for the rest of my life

(Repeat Chorus)

Whatever I do, it's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone

白蛇传

2007-03-20T02:03:00.000+08:00

So i was watching A date with a vampire on crunchyroll.com and they incoprporated this
白蛇传 tale into the story.
So it says Bai susu waited 800 years for xu xian and finally saw his reincarnate just before she died..a touching scene no less..
And Ma Xiaolong decided to ask : 换是你，你会等八百年吗？
So..presented the same question.. would u?

My ans? 珍惜你的每一天, don miss the well till it is dry~~

白色情人节

2007-03-14T23:47:00.000+08:00

Meaning White Valentine's day, it is a special day in japan though not many will celebrate it here in singapore. Nontheless, i find it very interesting that japan has 2 valentine day, one on 14/02 another on 14/03 which is 2day.(Thanks to Morikawa Sensei for enlightening) The reason that it being white is because guys in japan give sugary stuff which are white in nature hence the term white.

Still, i made a card for an ex-colleague.
Actually i was one month late la :P..for the full story come ask me
It is an arrow from her greatness aka... Mum =_="
so here is the pic..

Made a few selected copies and sent them to various ppl, some special.. some well just friends haha.. nontheless the thought is tat la ;P
So if u r a lady reading this..find ur nearest guy fren and show him this blog.. and MAYBE..u can get some freebies? :P

乌龟

2007-03-13T23:27:00.000+08:00

2007-03-11T22:49:00.000+08:00

Mums are wonderful.. they have the best lobangs in town..or at least mine does lol
So we went to this restaurant somewhere...i won't say where it is, but it has a great ambience.. with a 'great*' price and wanqiang came alone too!
Good food, awesome ambience, excellent service.. what more can a person ask for? :P
nuff' said.. pics incoming

Some camwhoring on the car ;P

So here we are!

waiting for fooddddddd..

Tucking in..

And then we realised we ordered too much... it was prety comical when we are like so full and this waiter serves us noodles and another one stood by the side and said ' do i proportion the fried rice? '...let the pictures do the talking here!

Staring at the abyssal amount of food...ke...

Look at the reaction of my parents lolx.. almost cannot take it :P

So we ended up packing teh fried rice heh...

What i like about this place.. Complementary lime juice and (new?!) osmanthous cake for after meals.

Deep in thought?(ninjaed shot by wq)

oh! before i forget! take a look at this!

Well all in all it was a great dinner. Much fun n laugher ;P
Cheers!

So after so many clues? can u guess where this place is?

*the price depends on who u r going out with btw ;P

Guys~

2007-03-11T02:40:00.000+08:00

Let's face it, girls are not the only people who knows how to gossip.
When five guys get 2gether at a coffeeshop after basketball..the results can be pretty hilarous..
Below is a short snippet :P

A - Eh i think ur sis is the very gullible type while cw sis hor although flirt around but smarter..
Me n B - ????( wtf face =_=)
A - i will never shotgun one! i have my reiligous beliefs!
Me - and if the gal strip in front of u , u will tell her ' oh my beliefs just flew out of the window'
A - *burst out laughing*

Conclusion? we guys are easily amused ..

Added a new melody for u ppl to take some time off ur busy schedule and spend a new minutes to listen to this. It makes one feels refreshed after tat.

Gomenasai~ ^_^

2007-03-06T22:36:00.000+08:00

Ch was right.... where did the cool headed me go?

I always thought i could handle it well but what have i done man.
What was i even thinking...
To actually say things and did them the other way..and giving ppl other then myself additional pressure.. thats just not me
So apologies r in order ~
I guess i am back..to normal..

And of course to u, sorry for what happened..didnt mean it..Gomenasai~ ^_^
I shall return the sands of time back to you. It belongs to you rightfully.

该是你的 - Ocean

点了两杯可乐

你嘴角还是苦涩

成全他的自由被松梆了
你却被困住了

幸福
被流尽了

也许给爱是甘愿的

哪天她才会懂得

想到她体贴的对象不止一个
你算什么呢

说穿了
每段爱都值得依依不舍
可惜呀谁能说对
那应该是你的
心碎了
红着眼看那段拉拉扯扯
除了你谁有资格决定你是牺牲者
天亮了
他走了你选择什么性格
从女人才懂得该你的才是你的
这首歌
唱不完恋人的曲曲折折
幸福并没有
非谁不可的角色

If u have not watched this, watch it.
If u have watched this, watch it again.
I always tell myself, cherish what u have, the ppl around u.
However, how many times have i actually done that? i wonder..
Now that this opportunity has presented itself to me, i must cherish it.
I have nv been a smooth talker, but yet i can relate so much to u.
Directions are always strangers to u and me, but yet we make it seem so easy.
With your company, even a simple dinner fills the atmosphere with laughter.
With your stories & smiles, you made the most mundane day a breeze.
I have nv given myself the opportunity to cherish ppl ard me.. be it frens or u..
now that it has come knocking on my door again, i am gonna open it and accept it graciously. After all.. what comes once...may never come again just like them in the video...

'幸福车站没有王子骑着白马
只有真心的傻瓜
在终点为你盖个家，风雨都吹不垮

Jay's new song. Heard that the song is good but the movie sucks..hmm..somehow i am now surprised.

74

2006-11-30T20:54:00.000+08:00

So after telling CH all the time that he has 25 more stops to go each time we go back home from NTU, i broke the record for the number of train stops in a day - 74.
How u ask? Hmm let's see..Jurong - Pasir ris - Expo - Bugis - Pasir - Jurong
25+4+8+12+25 = 74!!!!
U see, i went over to fix CH com today. Hence the many many trips back n forth to get the required items! But it is fun once in while hehe..and i took some pics from expo..seems like they r having a Robinson sales, Sitex! and this exhibition called Big Boy Toys. So off we go! Have to admit for a weekday it is freaking crowded and so many familiar faces doing part time there lol..this sem is soo hectic that considering a part time for this one month will deprive me of such a much needed rest ><"

K enough talking..some pics! so enjoy!

But fret not, here i am, back again after another semester and this time, with a new blog and new look. I have also took the painstacking decision to delete the previous blog..though it bring many memories and posts inside..i feel that it should somehow go. After all, 旧的不去新的不来...i am not going to dwell on unpleasent memories.
Since it is the first post, i shall not elaborate further..will update soon. ciao~
