A little survey..

1. Do you dig your own ears?
2. Do you dig your nose when no one's around you?
3. Do you brush your teeth before you sleep?
4. Do you pick on your leg skin?
5. Do you smell your own armpits?
6. Do you smell your socks after wearing them for a day?

Sounds gross I know.. If you bother to risk their shu nu xing xiang, you can tell me about them. Well, at least I dig my own ears on a frequent basis MYSELF.. not like someone.

Ich bin zurueck!

I am so damn bored! I have not been using internet/laptop for almost a week and think I'm dying from IT starvation.. It's like, for the whole day, you'll be thinking of the blogs you want to read, the websites you wanna check out and.. just some mingling around that you want before you dunk yourself right into the thick BIOLOGY textbook which you feel like burning. urgh.

My blog's been down for a week too because I made some changes and yeah, my laptop threw it's temper at me and decided to leave me for a holiday in the service centre.

The Social Work papers are quite tough.. not as easy as the studying process.. I could sense that my brain was working damn hard when I was answering the questions.. You really have to APPLY your concepts or else you will definitely sound like you are crapping your way through and that, is real bad.

Well, a mini summary about my papers.

My 2103 was a little bad.

My 2105 was a little better due to the fact that it is an open-book examination.. I happily quoted stuff from the readings in my essays.

My 2104? I was so damn lucky to have read an article on marriage before the examination proper.. I sort of memorised the points and BINGO, it was tested in one of the essay questions! I crapped my way through and ended up with three full pages for that one essay! And I am so damn heng to have spotted Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Theory (but sway enough to not read thoroughly) and crapped ALL THE WAY again.

Mind you, three pages is not that easy.. not as compared to essays I wrote during JC. I deduced (inaccurately) that it's because more application is required for higher level. What! Cannot make myself happier meh? Anyway, I studied like shit leh!

Biology? I wanna burn the whole textbook and all the lecture notes! I hate science!

I'd planned a mini class gathering at edris' house where we do the usual stuff- munching pizza while watching VCDs.. Just realised my bank savings have dropped quite a bit and thus, denying me a lot of things which I wanted for short-term enjoyment. I really wanted to earn as much as possible now so that I do not suffer after I graduate (when loads of loans come after you).

One thing I am VERY looking forward to, is a tentative Taiwan trip with my family..
YIPPIE!!

我们都是笑话。。 :(

你常说我马后炮。。 但现在的你比我还要马后炮。。

你总是吊儿郎当。。 但却在重要场合时显得大方，稳重。。

你常拿我当出气筒。。 但我还是忍了下来。。 不对你发脾气。。

而我，不开心时， 却得笑得像一个大白痴。。

幕后花絮。。

Me with my brother in the morning..

My first time doing Manicure and Pedicure.. LOOK LOOK LOOK at my shiny fingers!

Totally feel so pampered throughout the whole process.. :)

I specially took effort to not to bite my nails during the irritating examinations period okay!

My outfit for daytime..

I went to set my hair and boy am I surprised that the lao ban niang was so good at tying up hair.. looks gorgeous right?!?! The surprising thing is that you guys know how damn layered my hair is lor! And she manage to get them off my neck and stayed nicely on top. Wonderful!

Everyone said so :p...

...but they only said my back looks nice.. duhzzz..

The lao ban niang sprayed some pink stuff on my head.. nice! :)

(Notice that I'm wearing the earrings that you all gave me girls?)

Forgot to mention the little gift of the day.. chocolates with nice little gold ribbons..

My respectable (and idiotic) elder brother's Chinese Wedding..

A day my 大哥 and 大嫂 have been waiting for.. I am not totally into the romantic mood though.. I was hopping around for the whole day.. buying ice-cubes and fetching people from the MRT station.. and of course interacting with my "long-lost" cousins and relatives and old neighbours.. it's been such a long long time since I see them and when they see me, they only have one reaction..

"Wah! Ah ni dua liao ah!!"
(You've grown so BIG in hokkien)

Hey.. I don't eat liao bi (wasted rice in hokkien) okay..hahahahaha..

Alright so let me tell the whole story using pictures..


Before 9am..

the couple comes in..

No regrets??

.

.

.

NOPE!

The couple served tea to the grandmother.. (a pity that my other grandmother is no longer around. She really loves this grandson of hers)

The couple then served tea to their MUM of course.

The couple serves tea to my uncle..Okay.. I shall stop on the serving tea pictures.. got too many to show..

Thanks for all the help you guys gave to my brother!

The bride with the necklace my mum gave her..

After all the traditional processes, the adults requested the couple to pick numbers for them to buy chap li ki/4D..

Open open open..

After the couple left, me and my mum went to set our hair and we noticed this very interesting taxi.. It has money stuck of from its boot! So cute!!

Write your well-wishes for the couple! (AND PUT THE ANGBAOS INTO THE RED BOX RIGHT BEHIND THE WEDDING PHOTO)

As usual, I'm hopping around like a grasshopper, taking photos.

Our table (before the guests come)..

Who says I don't have boyfriendS! I have two leh!

The nicest photo of the day. yeah! :D

Me and my Jiu Jiu..

My brother and my mum..

Cheeky handsome boys of Ah Kiong Jiu Jiu.. ham sum boys~!!!

This is my uncle with Ah Beng Jiu Jiu and his family.. sweet little daughters they have..

Notice something?
That's Aniki Jin (in blue) in the background, according to my brother.

My uncle, Me, mum, Xinyi, and mum's friends.. That's Meili aunty in stripes.. used to cook yummy food for us when we were neighbours..

Actually all of us dream of planning our traditional Chinese wedding dinner. But the couple don't get lovey-dovey at the table.. They discuss what's gonna happen next. So not matching to our imagination. :P

The hosts requested my brother to carry the bride to her seat.. er.. looks heavy.. hahahaaaa..

Manage to catch the couple in a lovey-dovey (?) pose.. I'm so smart.

The couple pouring champagne..

My brother's new car A.K.A The wedding car..

CUTE RIGHT!!! (i mean.. the bears :P)

Do you all feel like getting married after seeing all the pictures?? I was wondering, at the age of 20, probably no one will come up with questions like "So when will I be able to drink your wedding dinner?" --> direct translation from chinese

But one of my mum's friend ask me jokingly.. when will it be my Big Day.

I replied with a big grin, "heh heh.. you wait la.."

Lastly, we shooked hands with most of the guests (because some just walk off).. and I have an irritation in my eyes and lips now.. probably because of the excessive makeup I had.. And oh!

I HATE MASCARA!

Have a nice day friends! Hope you all find the right one soon and don't forget to invite me to your wedding dinner!

My second 宝贝。。

And oh! I bought a camera for myself last week.. So messed up with my life such that I forgot to mention.. It is not very good but it has met all my needs so far. :)

Dear Sharon, I wont pester you with "bring your camera along" sms-es le! :D

My very first 旗袍..

One thing to be happy about among the irritating stuff,
mum made me a very nice 旗袍 which I have been hoping for..

Personally I feel that girls look very feminine wearing them.. Hope my big butt wont spoil the effect. :p

Muahahahaaa... nice and FREE OF CHARGE!

I'M SIMPLY IRRITATED.

SIAN!!! MUGGING BUT DON'T SEEM TO BE GENUINELY MUGGING.

I'M IRRITATED WITH MYSELF FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO READ MY TEXTBOOK AND READINGS MORE QUICKLY.

I'M IRRITATED WITH THE STUPID CHEEM TERMS OF SW2104.

(Anybody know the freaking difference between 'geriatricians' and 'gerontologist' ???!?!?!?)

I'M IRRITATED WITH THE WHOLE ***.

I'M IRRITATED WITH MY SKIN.

I'M IRRITATED WITH THE WEDDING DATE. SPOIL MY MOOD. WHILE ENTERTAINING GUESTS, I'LL BE THINKING OF SOCIAL WORK TERMS. HOW GREAT.

I'M IRRITATED WITH NOT BEING ABLE TO ENJOY TV AS MUCH AS BEFORE BECAUSE WHILE WATCHING, I'M THINKING OF HOW MUCH I STILL NEED TO STUDY..





SUCH A TRAUMATISING WORLD.. OR IS IT ONLY IN SINGAPORE THAT SUCH THINGS HAPPEN?

I REALLY LOVE STUDYING BUT STUDYING IN A TERTIARY INSTITUTION IS NOT FUN AT ALL.

* 抓狂*

Studying at home..

since Tuesday.. and I don't feel like going out.. to school because the crowd in Central Library is scaring me off. I am very tempted to take a picture to show how horrfiying it is but I guess I'll be killed by hundreds of students.. so.. never mind..

I feel so much calm-er at home.. Eat and shit as I like.. help my mum vacuum and mop the floor- I consider that as small breaks for me- and shake my leg like no one's business.. And most importantly, no need to put stupid stuff on my face to cover up all those flaws. People who have seen me in school but are shocked that I look like a ghost or didn't say hi.. Got reason one.. I don't wanna scare all of my friends away.. Yucky pimples love me. I got no idea why is this so. Go find those girls who have money to go for expensive facial sessions okay??

Anyway, I watched Korean dramas too.. have finished watching Full House.. going to repeat it during the holidays and return them to Xiao Wei.. Thankyou so much.. So entertaining!!

Full House was very boring at the start. The disgusting attitude of the female lead's friends really drives me mad. But as the story unfolds, the chemistry between the couple is clear for all to see. Nice show! :)

Talking about letting chances fly right out of the window..

NO ONE can beat me in that area.. I'm the 'DUMB-est' person on this earth.

...

Am I such a detesting person, such that you don't want to talk to me in a proper manner? You can talk to others in a totally angel tone and talk to me and I can feel that you feel dirty when you're talking to me. If not for what Grace had said, I would have quarrelled. I'm so damn irritated. You're not the only one of earth suffering. I am, too. You think what? My life sucks too. I got to work part time, pay my own bills and pay my own school fees, pay for my own meals.. You think I'm the most fortunate person? Your foot!

Pictures Galore(?) !

Got a hell lot to share but not a lot of time to spare.. Have been too tired and busy.. so enjoy the following pictures! :)

On Wednesday..

I took a photo with some of my SW2103 tutorial mates in the oily canteen..

Me and Rebecca.. The reason that I'm not posting all the fotos is because I don't look good in them. haha..

My German Lecture Class..

What a nice class foto!! Even Frau Niemann said it's 'ein tolles Foto'! hehe.. :D

Everyone's listening while I'm playing around with the camera.. :P

Our future wishes pasted on the wall.. but from time to time, they dropped to the ground.. :X

Me and Frau Niemann!

My group members for the day.. poor Joan, get well soon!

During German Tutorial..

(Damien, Gladys, Geok and ? in the background.. Lydia, ? and Irene in the foreground)

We're supposed to discuss our questions for a quiz game and I'm hopping around taking pictures. heh! Ask them to turn and face me, they just laugh.. haha.. They're nice people!!

"Come on la.. eat la.. my dear son.."

(We're doing another skit.. it's so fun to role-play in german!)

Stubborn prince still don't want to eat..despite all the good food and persuasion..

The funny nurse (centre) who confessed her love for the thin prince..haha..

The last skit.. the 'thin' prince and the King and the Queen..

This is Junwei, Stephanie and.... sorry, forgot your name. :P

Me and Geok!

Lastly, took a picture with my German tutor, Frau Annika Walter-Schantz..

Some preparation for the Big Day..

Marrying my brother off.. soon..

(Hehe.. i can ensure entertaining photos because my brother has loaned his camera to me and I won't be returning him that soon.. *witch laugh*)
