My Inner World

finally, another post

2008-06-23T06:57:00.003+08:00

well, haven been going online alot for the past 3 months coz no more internet at home le.. sibei boring arh.. so anyway been hanging out more w other guys, esp dear ian, kev, joe, zhala....
just to keep things more up dated, im now with joe again... hahaha how did that happened? well well, it's really complicated and i dun wana say alot right here/now but i can totally tell that he really really likes me alot.. i guess this is WAY more impt than everything else to me and im glad we r where we r now... he actually said some stuff tt really touched my heart( not mushy stuff la) and i know that it's not something an average guy would say to anyone.. im really happy being with him and so does he.. i duno where this will every lead to anything but it doesnt really matter to me than to be with him at least for the next 1 yr... if situation arises/occurs, i will be mentally prepared to let him go, even though the pain will be there.. i rather be truthful to myself n my feelings than to regret not telling it or nothing happening at all for the rest of life, as i did regret once (sort of)

as i've told him n so did he, we will always be frds, no matter what happens.. coz we treasure our frdship much more than being together... i hope things will stay this way forever (ok, for as long as it can) coz im really happy being with him.

i'll post another entry soon! (when i reach SG n got lotsa time to think wat to type hehe)

life's complicated

2008-04-26T09:10:00.002+08:00

oh well.. 让我用华文来写这个blog, 我会尽力去表达我的心情。
just to be updated about the recent activities,
前男友得知最近我跟另一位男生蛮要好的，上个周末我们谈了一会儿（more than tt)，他向我诉苦那个周末连接发生的倒霉事情／坏消息，然后提出想要复合的念头。最终，我还是决定不可能的。我已经把我对他喜欢的感情已经熄灭了，以好朋友的身份来看待他。
我知道他后悔他把我给放走了，但是他的理由和潜意识想要在一起，我真的无法去接受或理解。
竟然我的心已经死心了，我想也没必要再考虑了。
他真的应该得到他应得的教训，因为他是个大蠢蛋。当我们在一起的时候，我们有谈过这个话题。我也不想多说了（very tiring to type in chinese.. hehe) 他蛮dulan的，他说他和这个男生的类型是一样的，为什么我还选择这样的人。我回答不知道，你可以说我是个失败者吧。

personally, 我觉得这个男生跟他比起来是way better的。虽然我承认经前男友那么说，我现在有所保留（一点）。无论如何，该发生的会发生吧，只是现在的情况有点尴尬，因为他们两个在同一个乐队一起练习和演出，我习惯性的hang around这班人，所以会很奇怪。

ok i must go now... rehearsal for a percussion gig tml... til next time! =)

hmmm complicated

2008-04-13T13:32:00.002+08:00

oh well, i guess things are getting a tiny winy complicated right now...there's this other guy in school n i can sense his keen interest in me.. but we r just frds n now we have more classes together due to the new grouping n schedule..

im kinda confused whether to go ahead or just leave it as it is.. i have already 死心了 regarding the 1st guy i was with but things r so busy in school right now i dun think i shd go ahead though... and he's really busy w music anyway... i dun really know how things will work out seriously.. he's pretty nice in his ways (likewise for the 1st guy) but i think im not mentally prepared for another r/s right now... i think i would need to talk to him real soon...

we hanged out this morning( after the welcome party and the post-party party) in my room as part of the post-party-party chillout.. the survivors... me marc (from germany) n him.. it was really fun n i think i was being nonsensical n showed them photos of me n the trips i went to.. italy, wmc and back in SG... my best friends...sentosa.. the luge..etc..

rather than using confused, i think it's more of 不知所措。。怎么办？

嗨，完了

2008-04-05T05:05:00.002+08:00

真是的。。这么快就结束了。。我早就预料到这是没结果的，但是我还是无奈的陷入这个爱情的圈套。（我相信）我们是真心的喜欢彼此的，但是对感情的定义不同。我知道男人，尤其是他，都不想被女人绑着，没有自由，没有自己的身活。他一向来都向往自由自在的日子，无拘无束的创作音乐，尽情的敲击他的鼓，寻找音乐的天地，环游世界，认识不同的女孩，等等。
可能是我把他给吓坏了，他没有心理准备去接受比较稳定的感情。
虽然如此，我们依旧还是好朋友，因为我们太在乎我们之间的友情，他并不想伤害我，所以这样就结束了。其实我并不在呼这么多，在一起的时候开心我就满足了，但既然他都提出了，我也只好放手吧。

finally for an update!

2008-04-02T09:22:00.002+08:00

ok been real busy w school jan-mar... so didnt update n nothing to update.. hehe
but now it's time to update!

it's 2nd wk of break now n next wk start sch again.. :( will be real real busy so i may post once in a while..

im currently attached to this vegas boi boi most recently and he's really Zai lo... hee tt aside, the feeling is abit mixed up seriously.. but i'll just take things one step at a time k.. it's the same american guy mentioned in some post earlier.. oh well it was kinda weird how we got together... haha i didnt really think tt this will ever happen but it's happening now anyway.. lol

really nice sweet guy... been keeping him company coz he just moved near sch n the place was in a deep shit of mess n poor him had to move his stuff to n fro the old place, his mum's home n the current home.. he's got ALOT of stuff lo.. -_-'' i didnt help him much in the process coz my hands are injured n i have to rest n let them heal.. felt kinda helpless man.. and he had to make sure i dun go to sch n practise so i was just clinging on to him.. hehe and thru out the week, he was breaking ties with his good frd at his old home.. poor him.. i can tell he's really upset about the frd n how the frd was treating him like a piece of shit (the frd is damn zai on piano btw but the attitude arh.. bleargh) all of the sudden... He was always busy in his tots so i just kept quiet n watch him think lo.. wat else can i do.. he has been ranting about the frd n his frds has been calling him to ask him wat happened n he's pretty agitated whenever he talks, not super agitated la coz he's one cool guy... duno how to say.. i hope tt he doesnt feel tt im clinging on to him too much coz tt wasnt my intention.. coz he wanted to go out of town this wk so i tot maybe i shd just spend more time last wk w him.. i had fun doing nothing n spending time with him... he cooks too! where to find such a guy.. lol.. clean the house, cooks, play great drums, produce his own music etc! seriously...with a phd in physiotherapy mum with a underpaid job... i did agree w him tt the mum shd get out of US! haha definitely can get higher pay jobs in some other parts of the world...

i come to realise tt US is not tt great at all... it's horrible! so everyone shd stop having this impression tt US is a place where u can make ur dreams come true.. it's bullshit!! hehe with horrible health policies n horrible treatments.. (if u r sick u have to wait for 6hrs b4 u can see the doctor!) how can u wait when u felt like u r dying?! it's not even waiting in queue in a singapore polyclinic lo.. it's just waiting in a normal clinic or hospital... this is serious bullshit.. i certainly hope i do not need to go to the hospital A&E anytime... haha alot of ranting tt i can go on about... hehe but i shall stop here about the complains.. b4 US gov decide to hunt me down n expede me out.. keke

back to the vegas boi, he learnt kung fu b4! mai siao siao lo... he really knows! n he also went to learn samurai stuff too... it's crazy!!

i think i shd stop.. hehe seriously i havent seen him for more than 2 days n i dun really miss him... i think that 1 whole week together is way too much le.. hahaha he shd be feeling the same way too... kekeke

since we started at the beginning of sch break, we were thinkin not to publicise this in sch.. but i dun really know how he thinks about it now.. coz last fri we went to a frd's bday party n thinkin back now, i realised tt i sort of ignored him the whole time! i think he's like angry but im not tt sure though.. well, he's the one tt said tt he wana see how long can we keep this under wrap ma... i hope we will meet tonite though... =) maybe i'll bring this up if he's already done with all his moving house thing, settling the old house thing etc..

my new yr resolution 2008

2008-01-02T14:34:00.000+08:00

oh well, actually i never think about it but i was talking to aaron (refer to the other blog) and he gave me tips/idead tt became my new yr resolutions

i must be seen n known to the teachers and students
how? always be the first to go up n play in EW and all classes
always go jamming or jio ppl to jam..
hang out w bassists(***) and vocalists.. they'll be the ones calling u up for jobs
hang out w drummers lo... can get subbing and percussion gigs.. hehe
there's a typical mindset based on ur race/nationality. eg, if u r brazilian, they think u can play brazilian/afro cuban songs really well, if u r black, they see u as a groover... (wat about me?! im nothing! tt's why i need to be seen and let ppl know what r the things i can do)
teachers can be a good help if i really wana hang ard US after i grad and sub their gigs

transcribe 1 song n jam w it every wk, different genre each week. **VERY IMPT!**

PLAY W FEEL N GROOVE IS EXTREMELY IMPT! coz alot of guys can play technically well, feel wise, still need to work on...so if u got feel, u standout.

make gd frds wherever u go, coz they r the ones tt give u gigs, whether u r good or not-so-good. build contacts!

on the side note, aaron mentioned tt cruise job pays extremely well, but u may have to pay the price of losing ur contacts.. if u get the job for a yr n then renew for 3 yrs, u can apply for green card after tt... it's tt simple! and u dun have to spend a single cent working on board... hmm.... im really interested but not for 4 yrs! maybe in asia tt will be cool... cruise job is also a good training grd coz u'll be forced to play all kinds of music n u play everyday! (seriously, why not?)

tt's all i rem for now... hee thanks alot to aaron for his kind words n advice... btw, he n andrea can cook really well! =D

死心了

2007-12-22T15:02:00.000+08:00

我猜对了。 there is something going on. 我只好忠心的祝福他们。

心碎了。

心死了。

但是明天会更好的。

我决定了放弃

2007-12-21T07:23:00.000+08:00

i decided last nite, 19 Dec 07, tt i will give up K. i hope i will forget him soon. all the best for K and J. they r pretty compatible.

A-->S-->K<--J

2007-12-17T08:47:00.001+08:00

oh well it's been a while since i last post something... here goes on the update on prev post...

well.. i was trying to give up and etc but it's on n off thingy lo... then i think things r even more complicated now... there's this american guy(A) who's interested in me (well, i like him as a frd n it's nice to hang out w him) and i believe there's this girl(J) who likes tt korean guy(K)... siiiiiiiiiiiiiigh how come life is so like tt? i never tot tt LOVE would be such a complex thing at all, let alone to happen to me.. i wasnt and still isnt sure whether K likes J or not coz they've been hanging out quite abit.. i told Miki about this but she doesnt think so... J is very friendly w everyone but i truly believe tt J likes K now... K has been very nice to me but i really duno... he's been pretty nice to everyone too but i duno if he treats me like a younger sis or he likes me or not... this is so frustrating... i really hope i get some signs soon.. at the very least, if J and K likes each other, this gives me strong enough reason to back away and forget about this whole thing... coz i treasure my frdships with the both of them and i will give them my blessings if it's true... and i can tell A about my inner struggle in this situation right now and i dun wan to hurt him or give him any hopes as of now...

finally a post here..

2007-11-03T13:28:00.000+08:00

well wanted to add the entry over at the other blog here. but decided to put there... didnt want to make ppl in SG worried but i guess it's more appropriate to put the entry there...

http://jenn-in-lama.blogspot.com/2007/11/i-need-to.html

anyway, i think i like this guy in school... we see each other in class everyday except 1 day but anyway everyone sees everyone everyday.. we hang out in patio area, 2nd level where the sofas r, tables for practising. coming back to the topic, im not sure if he has the same feeling. we happened to tok to each other alot coz every morning he'll reach the classroom earlier than me then we'll drink coffee n hang out at patio together b4 class begins.. it was pretty farnie coz i'll joked why is he always faster than me. hahhaa we chat alot too. we started toking roughly when sch starts but we hang out more when we happened to be in the same small class of 10+ ppl, of which average daily turn out is 5. i think we actually started chatting more on the day of combo band audition. he felt tt he screwed up big time coz he couldnt sight read well and was feeling depressed. i encouraged him tt it's ok, at least u had the courage to go up n screw things up. i went up to play for fun n just to jam... prob it was obvious but i was a tad disappointed when i didnt make the cut..on the other hand, i was relieved coz i think i need the time to practise rather than rehearsing pieces at this point of time. anyway, he made the cut n got into one of the 2 combo bands. tt was so great! they r performing at UCLA tml afternn.... so envious.. i must buck up! next quarter i must give my best shot (i hope, in state of depression now)
ok, digressing again... i really enjoyed toking him (but i enjoy toking to everyone too,ok most ppl) =[ i duno man... abit awkward these 2 days but it wasnt so bad... today we didnt tok much.. he's so tired n shd be zonked out in space coz of the extra rehearsals for the perf.. becoz of how i feel now, i find it abit hard to tok normally to him. i dun wan him to think tt im getting away from him coz we seems to be hanging ard each other too much but i dun wan to be sticky either.

we still tok to each other when we see each other along the corridor today but ya...

abit 不知所措... im wondering whether this feeling will go away... i still certainly do hope we can be good frds even when he may not be thinkin along this line coz we can communicate pretty well. (ok, he's korean n speaking english is abit difficult for him but still understandable)

tt's all for now....

into my wonderland n trying to do some work b4 sleep n wake up in morning to prac in sch, david liebman clinic in afternn.

sian

2007-08-27T01:38:00.000+08:00

oh well... i feel tt things r not doing well... though i had a great lunch w mohli on wed afternn.. had nice yummy swediosh meatballs at ikea..haha and nice patrick sent me to karin's house! hee

ok actually i just dropped my phone on the floor n everything reset to ZERO... considering i havent been updating my backup, it's like alot of stuff gone lo.. esp the recent numbers i got... sian!

bad long wkend

2007-08-13T01:27:00.000+08:00

so suay n sian....
the wkend gig was terrific.. with great bunch of guys/gals... but everything else sux..

**national day...camera gimme prob... think better buy a new one real soon
**lost my shoe bag with my black shoes n 1 top bought in italy
**realised i lost my earphone too!

how suay sia... go bbq everyone also zao liao... shdnt have gone down sia... i took almost an hr to reach the place lo..stay there like half hr or less then home.. i think this wk has been damn suay... but at the very least i didnt lose my hp or my wallet... keep my fingers crossed!

wat's more, it just feels very numb to bump into ur gd frds outside when u were outside.... it's just like seeing ur the other half outside with another girl...(of coz not as strong la, but something along the line) knowing tt he doesnt like u as much le n is seeing other ppl...

things just seems to be going the wrong way...wat's going on..

im losing it.. i think i need to getaway for a day.. anyone?? i have not been myself since my camera is spoilt... =( maybe i go hide myself ba.. 我要习惯孤独自己一个人... no one will have the time to go w me... most of the time it really doesnt matter if im ard.. :'( 或许当你失去了才会懂得应该珍惜。。

watched 881 w nick huishan n daniel... it was a very touching movie.. i love it! though the hokkien songs i dun really understand.. the lyrics r all so sad(ya staring at the subtitles all the time) i think wan xin really can act very well... it was very sad to see her lying on the bed dying... it reminded me of abang...at least she can say her last words..abang just went away like tt.. sigh

tiramisu was bad... but..

2007-08-07T01:55:00.000+08:00

2007-08-05T01:24:00.000+08:00

oh well... had tons of fun n a very different sat nite...
after work went home to get my stuff down to my bro's house in tiong bahru..
used my cooler bags for the 1st time.. bought them from marks n spencer in 2005... hehe... they proved to be much use! put some ice with my mascorpone cheese...
down to NTUC to get some tomato puree my sis in law forgot to buy earlier in the day! not to forget to pack some delicious Venezia gelato!! yummy!! rasberry and dark chocolate flavour.. oh man.. really miss Meroni family! i still rem vividly the last day in italy Valeria(mum) was so kind enuff to bring me ard, finding supermarkets tt was open on sunday(normally all shops closed on sun but it was start of end-of-summer sale, so some place open) we shop for our stuff in the supermarket and bought gelato home! yummy!
down to bro's house.. he was at home! haha i tot he not ard... then my sis in law start preparing le... then i made coffee! lala finally... i opened the LAVAZZA coffee powder and out in a container... too small to contain the 250ml.. then bro left for his national day dinner nearby and me n sis in law(jiafeng) had our dinner spaghetti.. hehe.. listened to some nice music on CD while trying to make some tiramisu successfully...., best part was we forgot to defroze the mascorpone! sian... waited for it to melt, in bet we tried to break it into smaller pieces so it'll melt faster.. hehe... egg white never beaten all successfully.. haha didnt realise til the end... made lotsa coffee! hehe not enuff ma.. i think maybe we soak the ladyfinger in the coffee too much.. lala 1st attempt-- anything goes! finally done n cleaned up the kitchen, just in time for my bro to come home! hehe 10.30plus le.. had our yummy gelato! in bet, chatted w jiafeng all about the italy trip, homestay stuff, the homecook food..the dishwasher.. the coffee... the pickpockets.. cheap wine! lol i miss italy! =( i hope to stay in italy in future to work for some time..

finally was slacking then my bro said my 2nd bro will be coming over! hee yeah got someone to bring me home!he came over to get his laptop fixed(his harddisk crashed n died) finally left the house 11.30pm... almost stay overnite there.. no change of clothes ok la.. next morning come back lo.. but more concerned w my contact lens.. hee so left lo... we made 2 containers of tiramisu... took 1 back w me the other left there.. jiafeng cannot eat arh coz the eggs r raw/not cooked.. pregnant cannot eat raw eggs... she said maybe she just eat a little little bit.. hee

thanks to jiafeng for allowing me to mess up her kitchen (& helping them to use up the gas - they never use finish the tank at all before! since 1.5yrs ago.. -_-''' ) and she said she'll teach me to make apple pie... she was digging thru her recipe n we saw the apple pie... i love apple pie! slurp

2007-07-20T00:30:00.000+08:00

i try my best to recall....

27 june wed
final rush to pack the luggage...not really actually.. but everything in! like 3,4am...
reach airport late lo... thanks to zx.. then check in...blah blah.. no time for coffee... so just waiting for the coffee on board... :P tim came to send us off! =D zahid too! he was there w his frds to send zheguang off la... shunbian find me.. lol
plane took off ard 8.40pm i think...3 hrs flight..10plus(local time) reach Bangkok...
drama incident while going thru the detector... 1 ang moh hand carried a martell or so but thai airport also have same liquid restrictions... probably he didnt buy from DFS.. he was so angry tt he smashed the bottle on the floor... we all turned behind...some of us kena some liquid n glass... siao one lo... he dun wan them to confiscate never mind lo.. but throw the bottle somewhere else with less ppl can... so dangerous...more waiting... we all rushed for water at the water cooler... haha pass tt detector le.. so can have some water... hee

28th june thurs BBK-MPX
cool! everyone of us have our own tv screen! hehe so fun! many of us watch movie til siao! haha i watch incredibles(musart concert need to play ma) toy story(just to keep my ears occupied while doing sudoku) n dreamgirls(watch til zzz) hee eat alot... so piggy lo.. eat watch movie sleep... hehe but it was fun...oh played a game of billard with my neighbour, vinyee! we took such a long time coz hard to aim.. hehe anyhow play one...i like the multiplayer game mode.. i sat at the window seat... more room for my bags.. haha made myself comfortable but just more difficult to reach the air steward/ess... great view of the alps from the plane... wow! all ladies got some orchids which we can pin it onto our top or somewhere.. i lost mine after getting our of arrival area.. =\

nice wind! well the weather is similar to SG... hee much to my disappointment.. hehe load all the instru up the van n off we go to besana! reach town square in the morning... =D so exciting.. we were all ushered to this tent where there's drinks n chips n cheeseballs for everyone.. yummy! hee not hungry at all coz ate alot on plane... and then the host's name is called up one by one followed by the ppl to be left under them.. as yinting has said, it felt like little kids being given to their foster family.. hee my host turned out to be a young girl, serena... it was great tt she speaks english i found out later in the day... coz most of the hosts cant speak english! hehe not very good but we can communicate... i love my house! me n suhua shared the attic... where they have the computer, books corner, tv n sofa... like a little study room...

serena drove the family car(peugot!) w my heavy luggage! hee ok... had lunch w the family in the backyard... they love to have their meals outdoors in summer... so shuang.. nice wind, nice weather(ok it was pretty cloudy) n 1st meal of homecook italian food! yummy! n finally! italian coffee! yummy! love it totally...

after which, serena brought me around... went to this town rather near lake lecco(right at the bottom) n check the lake out... nice! can see the mountains... and i explained to serena tt we dun see mountains in SG so we r really amazed! heehee i forgot which town was it... really nice town.. felt a tiny bit like holland v (more spacious less crowded)... i shd have shopped a little.. tot i would reserve my $$ for shopping in milan(which i didnt... read on!) there's alot of shops tt we walked past...really nice to feel the cool wind while in the car... SG? wun get tt unless it's rainy weather n u wun get to open the window in the 1st place!
b4 going home, we went to the bakery to get some dough for pizza! yummy! hee i took a blur photo of the shop but deleted it.. i tot i would have the chance to go back there... =\ there was a coffee powder shop there too..i tot i can buy some back for me n serene if i come back again..=(
pizza for dinner! yummy!
the mum, valeria, loves to eat veggies...she dun really like meat but she cooked nice meals! interesting... hee almost every meal there's salad... and the veggies r freshly plucked from the garden!!! i was extremely touched to eat them! i've never eaten such veggies filled w freshness! oh gosh... i guess they(the family) r pretty amazed w me taking photos of the food n me loving the food.. haha the dad joined us for dinner(he drives the other car in the family..) serena has 2 younger bros...16 yr old Francesco and 14 yr old Marco... im pretty amazed tt the family actually has no qualms in sharing their family stuff.. which i think in SG, our family would just be hiding all the ugly side (for example not in their context, my son is good for nothing arh... everyday bum ard n waste time) i really felt part of the family... hee
after dinner, serena drove me to town square where almost everyone from nusws is there watching the besana concert band rehearse... cold wind at nite... the rehearsal ended close to midnight?! and back we go... sleeping alone is really fine for me... abit lonely no one to tok to... but it's ok... the cat never come up leh.. hee coz the attic is the cat's favourite hangout place with the nice blanket it would curl into n use its paws to duno do wat.. haha 1 afternn i saw notte(the cat's name) sleeping comfortably in the blanket... which i use at nite.. hee it was so cute!

RIP my dearest abang, zali...

2007-06-20T02:13:00.000+08:00

i know i never update about zali's condition... was too lazy to blog about anything...

after tt operation on prev entry, he slowly recovered n got better..., but no visitors allowed for ard a week... the last time i went down to SGH he was already much better and the wife was feeling better emotionally... we couldnt communicate much coz she dun speak much eng and i cant understand malay... we try lo... i knew tt he was getting better n i better get my stuff done b4 the italy trip n us trip.. i wanted to visit him last wed coz i was in the area... why didnt i insist myself to go?! i was with leslie ( we havent seen each other for months) n i tot it would be weird if i pull him along to go hospital visit... so i dropped the idea...

anyway, zali was getting better til today(19 june, tues) 5am, his heart beat stopped... they resucitated him n put him on a life support system... this morning, i was barely trying to wake up at 9plus am when uda called me to tell me about the bad news... i knew i cant go down immediately coz i need to go out w mum otherwise it's rather hard for us to meet up b4 i fly to italy next wk.. i did some shopping n was thinkin about zali... i tot he will be able to get thru this...not knowing how bad the situation was... reached SGH 5plus... his ICU equipment looks real bad... the heart was beating... but blood pressure low.. everything lo... oxygen machine was right there... the other bmc guy was there too(forgot his name) he told me he came yesterday(mon) n zali was fine n in good spirit... all tt's left was the oxygen machine by his bed in a normal ward.. but...
i skipped alumni band prac tonite n stayed there til 10pm... left w uda n the bmc guy... alot of ppl came... coz the bad news reached them.. the doc said he wun be able to make it past today... it was really heart wrecking to see all his relatives chanting for him n saying prayers(muslim).. the wife all stoned out with her 2 kids(plus one in the stomach)... his younger sis appeared(i didnt know she existed.. never really saw her ard..ok maybe i didnt notice) his elder sis totally collapsed this evening...i think she just rushed down, perhaps from airport..the elder sis was in thailand w her family(i think) n zali's mum when they got the news n flew back immediately..

and just as i was telling nick about zali's (coz he was asking ard who's free to go JB, i mentioned even if im free, i would be down at SGH) worsen condition, uda called me ard 1.45am... he's gone.

instinctively i knew it would be bad news to receive call from Uda at this time... we all expected bad news but i was still full of hope tt he will make it thru today... alas, he didnt.. after stoning for a while, i called tama ard 10mins later... 1st thing he said after picking up, 'you got bad news for me?' SIGH... ya i tot he would want to know esp since i know he'll be awake..

i tot i'll be fine coz the news was expected... uda was saying we shd have stayed on... i even joked during dinner to him tt i will regret the rest of my life for not visiting zali last wk..

i tot i will not regret something like tt ever again.. coz when wanling passed away, i didnt even visit her in hospital once..knowing she was in NUH but i duno which ward..to think i even went down NUH foodcourt for dinner during exam period.. one thing i did right at tt time was i smsed her once when i heard she got hospitalised if she was all right... she replied saying she's ok... everything came to light only after she lost the battle to the cancer.. she was hiding the truth from everyone... and i totally regretted not taking any pic with her (maybe i did, defintely not my camera..dun own one then) since then i told myself i must treasure my frds... tt's why sometimes im so nice la.. hee do stupid things n buy snacks for u guys.. heh

i havent seen zali for quite some time prior to this accident... i heard news about him here n there from ppl who keep in closer contact to him.. i sms him b4, tt we must meet up once in a while after i stopped full time w tama, he stopped full time w bmc... but we did not...occassionally we exchanged sms lo.. i didnt want to sms him too often.. i dun wan the wife to think i was trying to be funny...(duno her then) he loves his sons very much... he's frdly n helpful to everyone...at work especially... tt explains why the crowd appear inside/outside ICU ward 52B... we went out once... with his other frds he was really nice n decent.. he taught me things at work n in life... he disturbs me once in a while, asking 'how's u n bernie' coz the 1st time me n bernie went out after work near forum, we bumped into him n i was delighted tt i screamed 'ABANG!' he was shocked at my reaction.. hahaha bernie was totally confused at tt instant...(oh ya, we all knew one another) little things u rem about someone... all these flashbacks actually came back to me tt time when he was in critical condition 2-3 wks back.. now im not thinkin.. im too tired to think...

i wonder how many more ppl will be recalling their interaction/time with zali when dawn breaks...at least by now at 2.49am, alot of his frds would have gotten the news.. i called bernie but no one pick up.. he shd be sleeping.. the calling will be done by uda...

zali, u'll be dearly missed...by ur family, ur dear frds, ur dear colleagues, ur dearest adik perempuan - me.

25nov2005 - ya busy playing games or wat.. dun wana pose for cam.. ah heng here!

12Dec2005 - at clarins perfume launch event at chjimes.. the day he became my abang... our joke:where's my cheesecake?!

31Dec2005 - NYE countdown at Fullerton Hotel..purposely pose such a cham face..(ya i was fatter, *ah hem* still fat)

signing off for now at 3.13am...lurve ya abang! it would be freaky if i dream of u but i want to... i want to say goodbye n enjoy heaven

more prayers pls...

2007-06-01T00:24:00.000+08:00

ok enuff of side tracking...
while i was at the esplanade, uda told me jali was in hospital.. i tot he was joking... =| in changi hospital n in coma... i was determined to visit him the next day..

the whole story goes like this..

he fell off the roof of his house in indonesia..(i duno the exact place name) hurt his neck/bnack of head.. hospitalised in a local hosp...then in coma.. then not safe to put there.. fly back Sg.. TTS no space.. put in changi... then not safe also... this afternn transferred to SGH ICU..

met up w Uda n 2 other guys from BMC to visit him... saw his family there... was really in loss of words when i saw him.. at least he's conscious now..thank goodness... 2 person can enter the room at a time.. he cant tok w tubes in his mouth... but he's crying... =( uda informed tons of ppl to come... and he sure did got an army of jali's frds down... shows how nice he is... he was tearing all the time.. he cant tok... i know there's so much things he wana say.. it all showed in his eyes... stayed there ard 5pm to 8.30pm... had dinner at the foodcourt.. said bye to him.. and i promised him i'll visit him when im free..coz quite bored there ma.. nothing to do.. i told him to be strong n he will get well soon... abang, this is for u! (post pic later.. cannot post now!)

tml he'll go for a brain scan... (eh maybe one of my frds will be doin it! got quite a few frds working inside...) n see wat's wrong... i think he's got a blood clot somewhere at the back of his brain.. i hope everything will be okay..

Must Watch Every Tues!!! Live from Abbey Road

2007-04-24T02:03:00.000+08:00

there's this series on every tues 11pm on Arts Central of live performances of various artists featured in this 12-part show... it's absolutely amazing from that 1 episode i've watched 2 tues ago... Kasabian, Josh Groban and this interesting band, the good, the bad & the queen... damn awesome to see these singers/band in action.... Josh sang w his crystal clear voice, playing baby grand at the same time!

tt band was really very unique.. n i saw the drummer w his unique playing....n i found out from Rhythm magazine that he is the under rated drummer, Tony Allen, the forefather of afroamerican beats! how cool is that... hee which explains his interesting grooves... oh this band is fronted/started by damon albarn (member of Blur), as well as the mastermind/voice for the band Gorillaz!!damn cool!!

this show is really special coz all of these performances took place in this famous studio, with sound recording n all, named Abbey Road Studios (well, it's situated on Abbey Road) in london, UK... instead of at performing venues

More about the show at the official site (warning! slow loading..) u may see short clips of the various singers n interviews... =)
tml's episode 4! featuring Dr John, LeAnn Rimes, Massive Attack(they r singing my fav song!)...
i still feel sore about missing last episode..jamiroquai, damien rice & goo goo dolls...

u may be interested to know about the studio here from Wikipedia, made famous by the Beatles for one of their album covers..

on the worse side of things, i've been trying to find this song for the past 1-2hrs... at least i know who sang it.. de-funct LMNT (pronounced as element).. i know i posted this song lyrics in my old blog.. but i dun have the song!! argh this song was part of some credit card adverts yrs back...
pls help me find this song.. thanks

LMNT - Life Is Beautiful Lyrics
In the morning i feel the breeze
The sun washes over me
The sound of water the crashing sea
Is it only me that feels alive
It's all ahead of me
'Cuz i feel so right
Just open ur eyes and see that

(chorus)
Life is beautiful (so beautiful)
It's beautiful to me
Life is beautiful (so beautiful)
It's beautiful to me

Life can take you anywhere
You don't know where it leads you
You should know you're not alone
Just open your eyes and see that

(chorus)

Life is beautiful (so beautiful)
It's beautiful to me

Beautiful Sunday 15th April 2007

interesting facts of the day

2007-01-31T03:07:00.000+08:00

one of my student, CX, loves the band im gettting to adore... The Arctic Monkeys... he's got their latest album(earlier one i duno) n know every single song by title. btw i think this band only came up last yr n they r screaming for attention! this fact caught me by surprise coz he's like always feeling stressful.. haha but of coz under my tutelage he's much better/relaxed now! wahaha

i finally bought my student, alvaro's bday present! planned to give a Cd album but never got to go n buy til today... contemplates among Arctic Monkey's Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not , national mercury prize album of the year(2006) and finally settled for the latest new album in town, grammy nominees... it's just a pity there's no arctic monkey song inside!! coz this cute little grade 4?! student of mine never heard of their song b4...i think he's a mix of german,spanish n something else.. very hardworking boy n gave me xmas present! i was so touched lo.. n since his bday was a wk after new yr(yes i procrastinated) i decided to return a gift back... so far this is the 1st time i bought a gift for my student... heehee i belive the pace of teaching/learning is slower than b4 but he enjoys the lesson w me... (was my frd's student til he left) also partly due to the fact he's still new to triplets.. =D but he's doing well n i hope we can progress faster soon!
he was pretty surprised i rem the present.. coz i rem i told him i would get him a present but i didnt tell him i havent got it/too busy to get it so he tot i forgot about it.. heehee ;D

tt's all for now.. 3.17am!!! argh sleep!!!

sun..Rc bday! met for brunch at breko n then down to cc.. though i was late.. was rather sian to go down coz i know i'l be the only one again.. cant be bothered liao lo.. hee then passed rc the present.. keke.. purposely one.. coz he would have tot by then tt there's no present! lol.. he treated me the brunch! i wanted to lo... hee so nice right.. then prac as per normal... dinner! was abit pissed tt they went to exercise without me lo.... they didnt sms me ma.. so i tot no more exercise le.. and then out for brunch w rc.. though i would have rejected to go for exercise, oh well...considering i had been very tired n staying up late with not enuf sleep... no surprise for my action.. lol... my close frds must kena at least once in their life time.. (ok, several times) b4 they can be my close buddies.. lol and so, though i was broke, we(ml jus jo gb des joel) all ended up at west mall sakae sushi for dinner... and ate to my heart's content.. and of coz there goes my $$.. hahaha after tt walk abit n home by bus...

mon was fun.... JB shopping! details later

tues was tiring... went to few places...

wed was exciting...finally back to teaching in sch.. hee... i hope they can keep up the good work we have done in the 1st session. last min prac was cancelled n went down to junction to meet jus n ml for dinner...had mos burger n then walk walk ard... was feeling tired n no mood to really shop.. was walk ard see n look... and then to a place to sit down for coffee... guess where? cafe cartel!! oh my, they just changed their menu... got new stuff... must try! lol.. and yes, another hole burnt for the nite...

thurs cannot wake up again... i didnt realise i was going to fall sick.. but every day i couldnt wake up lo...perhaps my late sleeping also contributes to this... down to office n then to suntec for work... fairly easy... but was feeling abnormally tired... couldnt be coz i didnt do anything else for the day.. only after i went home, i can feel tt im going to be sick..

today, fri 20th... oh shit didnt wish hapy bday to justin.. hmm later.. lol i couldnt pull myself to wake up at the time i set.. and was running late for work...
thanks to davina for calling me up just in time an hr earlier to inform me of the time im starting work.. didnt know b4 tt... then after work back to holland v to get some necessities n then in i went to provence.. gosh.. i saw a mountain of scones again! and of coz i didnt hesitate to take a whole load of them plus the yummy cookies to bring to sentosa later... im regretting alittle now coz i think i bought too much! lol... hopefully got alot of ppl later... $$ spent le.. so must finish up! lol

kk i must sleep now.. it's 1.40am le n waking at 7am.. =_=

last but not least, im sick again! hooray! after barely 2 weeks of "good health".... thanks to my aunt who is down of virus attack.. the virus has hit me after she has returned from hols for ard a week..

quote of the day

2006-10-10T23:26:00.000+08:00

"I tot i serve u the chawamushi already?"

hmm.. oh well just wana let everyone knows about this interesting incident..
shall begin from the start.. though it's not related.. lol

hmm.. wanted to go gym.. in the end too tired le so never go.. lol then down to work... then to PS walk walk while waiting for candice n patricia... bought tako balls to eat coz too hungry le.. hee then to cathay to meet them.. Nice movie! initially i was so scared tt it might be too boring for me.. coz i always link suspense movie with boredem and slow pace of plot.. but this one is definitely farnie n nice! little twist at the end but it's not corny or watsoever.. hee a french movie under french film festival 06... damn farnie sia some parts... hee i love the music! the movie started n ended w the same piece... military marching snare with piccolo melody...sounded like tin whistle though.. and then clarinet later on... nice trio... there were singing in some part of the movie and they r very nice too.. would love to get hold of the soundtrack.. if SG got shops import them in or if i rem i'll get online! lol

the incident occured in the jap rest later where we had our dinner.. i didnt want to eat too full, so i ordered the jap style tofu n chawamushi... the tofu came first... then patricia n candice's chasiew ramen came... and then i was waiting for the chawamushi.. never appear leh.. then the lady at the counted came over to settle the bill coz they were closing their accounts le and so i asked her... she was like shocked lo... and then turned to the waitress that was serving us.. this waitress actually insisted that she has already served us the chawamushi.. i was utterly shocked to hear that.. it's like we r sitting at the entrance of the rest... u can see one lo... whether you have served it or not... not like we ordered alot of stuff... i rebutted with my instinct that if it was here it would have been on the table n i wun have asked lo.. so duh lo... i cannot believe what i heard... some kind of customer service... and that was the last one some more.. the chef n the lady at cashier(i believe might be one of the boss or manager la) was so apologetic.. tt waitress asked if can change to salad.. i dun wan lo.. i want to eat chawamushi tt's why i ordered it ma.. i decline the change n ask to be refunded instead... the waitress said something like "but we key in already leh" tt was so duh lo... me n candice was abit turned off by tt... coz we know that it's not that troublesome to void the transaction n do another one... sibei tulan sia...but i wasnt kicking a big fuss there lo.. then the lady said never mind we will void it... then duno what happened they found(i supposed) the last chawamushi in the kitchen... was like -_-'''''' and so i got to eat my chawamushi n it was really nice... hahaha blardy turn off by the waitress... i know that it's a tiring job n they r closing soon n i totally understand tt it might have slipped her mind or wat.. but you dun tok to customer in that manner one lo... im sure if justina was there she would just kill her n kick a big fuss.. lol...
when we left the chef n the lady was so polite.. i just smiled back at them.. they r really nice ppl... if i was the mystery shopper they can all fail already... for tt 1 fatal mistake n the attitude... sigh... im sure the 2 of them know how to tok to that waitress ba... dun wana add oil in the fire...
and thus the quote of the day...
poor patricia.. she was feeling so sick last wk n still sick... hope she recovers soon... very sian to work like tt one.. hee

7 Donts after eating

2006-08-23T00:10:00.000+08:00

* Don't smoke- Experiment from experts proves that smoking a cigarette after meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes (chances of cancer is higher).

* Don't eat fruits immediately - Immediately eating fruits after meals will cause stomach to be bloated with air. Therefore take fruit 1-2 hr after meal or 1hr meal.

* Don't drink tea - Because tea leaves contain a high content of this substance will cause the Protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest.

* Don't loosen your belt - Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted & blocked.

* Don't bathe - Bathing will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs & body thus the amount of blood around the stomach will therefore decrease. This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.

* Don't walk about - People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live till 99. In actual fact this is not true. Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we intake.

* Don't sleep immediately - The food we intake will not be able to digest properly. Thus will lead to gastric & infection in our intestine.

reflection

2006-07-28T23:09:00.000+08:00

alot of things are happening... i duno how to react... i feel that i've changed.. i KNOW i have changed... after working in the already not-so-harsh world out there... under protective wings of my boss... what i've gone through have changed my preception of things and how things need to be done. and probably i have sounded pretty harsh towards ppl on things and have higher expectations of things. but i am just me. i guess some ppl r turned off by the things/comments i said some way or another. i duno. i know that i dont feel like i belong there anymore. i wasnt able to contribute as much as i wanted during that period of time i was working for events. there is nothing i can do about that! i also hope tt the experiences i've gained from my work can also help in the management. im just farking out of the league.

Partly of stopping work in the timely july was for the convenience n total concentration for the upcoming things happening. though i would really want to contribute like before, im just being left out. i dun belong to this. i dun belong to the management. i dun belong here anymore. it's not even about belonging to a clique at all. i hate this feeling. which i felt so strongly in senior yrs... total outcast n not being able to contribute. it's like effort wasted. it's happening again. and i know this time round, i have to let go. i need to let go. in order to move on in life. i feel really sad that we dun share problems and joy anymore... all the laughter n fun we used to have together.
i guess this is good. it would be easier to let go when the time comes for me to leave. :'(

i love u guys.

how can i forget all about this?!

2006-07-24T02:19:00.000+08:00

we got 3rd placing in open cat!! =D 85.something points.. hehee...
im so proud of my band... a band i call my own...

2006-07-24T01:59:00.000+08:00

You might agree with it, but when it actually happens 99% of girls dont realize it till it is too late and that guy who did it is so frustrated that he has moved on to someone who will take notice.

From a guys point of view:

We don't care if you talk to other guys.

We don't care if you're friends with other guys.

But when you're sitting next to us, and some random guy walks into the room and you jump up and tackle him, without even introducing us, yeah, it pisses us off.

It doesn't help if you sit there and talk to him for ten minutes without even acknowledging the fact that we're still there.

We don't care if a guy calls you, but at 2 in the morning we do get a little concerned. Nothing is that important at 2 a.m. that it can't wait till the
morning.

Whatever happened to the word "handsome"/"beautiful"

I'd be utterly stunned by a girl who greeted me with "Hey handsome!" instead of "Hey baby/ stud/ cutie/sexy" or whatever else you can think of.

on the other hand im not sayin i woulndnt like it ether ; )

Girls, I cannot stress this enough:

IF YOU AREN'T BEING TREATED RIGHT BY A GUY, DON'T WAIT FOR HIM TO CHANGE. DITCH
HIS SORRY, DISGRACE-TO-THE-MALE-POPULATION ASS, AND FIND SOMEONE WHO WILL TREAT YOU WITH UTTER RESPECT

Someone who will honor your morals.

Someone who will make you smile when you're at your lowest.

Someone who will care for you even when you make mistakes.

Someone who will love you, no matter how bad you make them feel.

Someone who will stop what theyre doing just to look you in the eyes....and say "i love you" ...

....AND ACTUALLY MEAN IT!

we hope that all the girls that read this will repost

this is so true.. i must bear in mind..

sat.. missed bus 48 and walked to cold storage instead to buy some sweets n chocs for my beloved stage pepz... then took cab down to teach the siblings and off i rush down to esp...do my usual siakang... it was much relieved to know that i wun be gving cues on stage... slowly brought out my snacks for the guys... i gave away my sour green apple bubble gum.. =\ haven try yet.. coz sick ma.. dun dare to chew the sweet.... must pass to them discreetly ma.. hee bought almond rocca for them and the musicians im more familiar to... got the chance to say hi to colin.. hee he said i slimmed down ALOT! lol.. oh well.. this was the starting point of us talking again after so long... not tt i dun wana tok to him.. but we didnt have the chance any more... coz we dun cross path nowadays.. =) tok to derence as well.... he rems me!!! from JJC!!! cool sia.. catch up a little bit and he asked where r my batch ppl.. keke... so sweet of him.. he actually rems me.. =P we exchanged numbers later tt day or the next day.... became the main person to give cue for the choir... they r fantastic! the instructor seems quite strict also... i happen to hear them warm up alittle bit... zai! rem shining my useful torchlight for the girls and boys to enter choir gallery.. keke... damn dark sia.. cannot see anything... =) some of them r really sweet.... they actually turned and said thanks for showing the way... otherwise they all would just tripped and fall over one another and piled up... before the start of 2nd half... haha anyway end of show i feel a little screwed up coz i think i could have helped to make less confusion or make things better... oh well.. we all learn from mistakes and lessons... after clearing the stuff, dun wana go home yet(i dun wish to look like im the ?? who follow everywhere...) spilted ways... xiaowan!!! hee in the end never join them for supper la... missed meiling n jus too much liao.. coz we haven been hanging out for like 1 week plus.. received 1 large bouquet of flowers(actually presented to shane towards end of concert but he left liao) and hugged it ard... went to outdoor theatre.. passed farhan the nice n yummy almond rocca... of coz not before i teased him.. keke... yes i love doing that... saw ah heng and david! keke chatted with them abit as well... =) and then on my way to bus stop saw colin n frds... chatted abit and then took 162 to bishan to meet ml n jus.. keke.. so troublesome.. with my flowers.. and at tt moment.. i felt like dying already coz farking tired... but i know i want to meet them.. so i persevere.. hehe heng i got down the bus just in time... then had my chengteng at the coffeeshop... =D

too bad cant join them to stay overnight... and just simply no energy to join them next morning for a swim... just too sick and no voice at all... gone...... took cab home lo...

then later on.. really bored sia... go check abit of my mails... then bernie pop by the stage sometimes to see if got things to do or not... haha nothing.. and always at the timely moment... so i'ld guessed by then they do have TV linked to the room to see what's happening at the hall.. haha... true enuff... i went to their cosy room and hang out there... damn nice n comfy... know more ppl there but i was sure that i will forget their name.. hahaha poor memory ma.. and feeling sick is not helping.. plus i feel really bad that i couldnt go for prac tt afternn... all for another band... =( oh well, felt so sick n tired tt i almost dozed off on their sofa... zzzzz.... bernie was pretty nice n told me more things about backstage stuff n being stage manager... and shared our past jobs and how we ended up where we r now.. he also called me to makan dinner w them... keke... sick sick sick.. sorry that i didnt buy anything today for them coz i rushed out of house today ma... hee seeing me so sick should gain some sympathy.. lol then the mad ppl of the band just carried on recording without dinner break coz they scared they might not have enuff time.. haha... anyway they ended at 8plus pm... after which all siam fast fast.. keke.. i hanged ard abit.. waiting for ramu n guys to be done with the packing n transport of perc instru.. which in the end kena fly kite... they left to go back sch before makan...sianz... so in the end, i got free backstage tour on the hall, where they store their pianossss?! in total got 7 grand/mini grands... faintz.. diff model and got parking lot one.. mai siao siao... got a free lift up to the hall stage... maciam like super star rising up from the bottom of the ground.. lol... very fun! =D ended up at harrys with bernie n bam, drinkin and back home 11plus... hee bernie going back to his parents home at clementi coz he needed to pack for reservist next day.. keke... so i got a ride home! =D otherwise he stays in east coast area...

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to good manners and elegance.

In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored.

You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage something you've always wanted... though you haven't really thought about it.

In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

Guiness?! liew.. i hate it...

You Are Guinness

You know beer well, and you'll only drink the best beers in the world.
Watered down beers disgust you, as do the people who drink them.
When you drink, you tend to become a bit of a know it all - especially about subjects you don't know well.
But your friends tolerate your drunken ways, because you introduce them to the best beers around.

What's Your Beer Personality?

ok.... am i like tt? hmm
