Post-BD

Thanks to all who sent their bd wishes last week..there were some who wished me every year without fail but i'm ashamed to say, i can never remember their bds..i will try to improve ok!

I'm sure i missed out replying/acknowledging some smses..cos i had been working like a cow the morning of my bd..and when i got home, i crashed out like, totally lor..trying to sleep away my flu and cough was hardly the most exciting way of spending a bd..but there i have it..sigh..

Anyway, i claimed my bd dinner from wei last nite..After being ignored by the service staff at our intended dinner place, we restaurant-hopped to another eatery where we immediately felt more welcomed(3 staff came over within minutes of us appearing at the entrance)

Of cos, this being a dinner with wei, we had our questionable moments..is this the correct dish we ordered? Got white wine meh? Is that really the chai poh..how come it didn't taste like it? or did you point at the wrong photo? (wei didn't trust herself enough to order in mandarin after mangling the dishes' name earlier on) But all in, it was a pretty good meal..at the expense of her low-carb diet somemore..appreciate it much much ya..^_^

As part of my bd 'deal', Wei had thrown in a after-dinner movie as well..We caught 'Julie & Julia' (which Wei has an 'obligation' to blog on..haha..no stress ya :Þ) Whole movie was about food & blogging..wat's there not to like?! Which had Wei reminding me 'you have not finished the blog on Kuching leh'..Oh ya hor! Actually, i had drafted an entry on the concluding 'chapter' - day 4, but i guess it sort of slipped my mind to publish it..will get down to it after this..promise..

Sunrise & Sunset

This morning(or rather yesterday morning), I saw the one of the most beautiful sunrises i've seen..

A distinct orange orb peeking out from behind the backdrop of a rainforest, casting its glow onto the water reservoir in the foreground..I had caught it 'by chance'.

It was definitely the prettiest i've ever seen in Singapore..but it was not perfect..and so i did not take a photo of it.

The very same evening, i saw a brilliant sunset too..a splendid egg yolk in the clear blue sky..again, i haven't been out searching for it..it was one of those 'happen to look up at the right place at the right time' moments.

Life's not too bad..

I heard a rumour..

About me..studying psychology..in NIE..

Well, it's a half-rumour/half-truth..since I'm not exactly studying pyschology..i only say tat cos my actual course title is very looong and i find that i usually need to follow up with some explanations before people really understand what is it about..

and i'm definitely not studying in NIE..

Studies & Exams

The bad news is i didn't top my class..i had to settle for 2nd place..


Woah..it's been a long while since i got so competitive academically..in fact, i was never competitive during school days..how to be when i was struggling just to pass..ha


But yes, it's nice to know that my hard work did pay off..i tried my best..really..


Of cos, credit must also go out to someone..the poor girl has had to help me with my revision while lying half-paralysed in the hospital..thanks! (i still have 3 other papers coming up..)


Never thought i'll ever say this but i wish i have a bit more time to study these days..i know i'm neglecting my revision and research..but like everyone else, i'm also guilty of using the universal excuse 'no time'(which is absolute rubbish)


I have added stress when someone else said this to me in her darn earnest tone 'i'm sure you'll do well, cos you were the one who chose to study' This coming from a person whom i watched her 'grow up'..


我们都长大了...

<回来> 张信哲 1999

十年前发的专辑...十年后终于明白了...

过去很熟悉 现在不懂你
想看你眼睛 你却给我背影
就像满天星 都跌进大海里
我被放逐的心 又要往哪里去

我们再也回不去了 对不对
就算曾经几乎拥有幸福的完美
你的心回不去了 对不对
你要的再也不是我能给

我们再也回不去了 对不对
眼看就要让满心遗憾为爱受罪
你的心回不去了 对不对
不能去怪谁 顶多只能掉眼泪

如果问原因 可能更承受不起
若就这样离去 我又很难平静
从你的泪滴 我找到被爱过的证据
有冲动想哭泣 只好紧紧抱你

-.-

I'm in a foul mood..

All cos i did some packing..serious packing..i'm a lousy packer and i absolutely hate packing >.< I was always fortunate enough to have people encouraging/forcing/cajoling(or most likely) ending up helping me to pack. But this time, i did it alone..well, more or less..

Wet weather..annoying clients..don't help..

Up...Bruno..

As mentioned in my previous entry..my blog is my new-found best friend..so here i am, dating my blog on a rare free Wed nite..

Suddenly got the inspiration to blog about movies..

Caught Bruno(yes, tat Bruno) the other day..it was one show that i practically had my eyebrow raised throughout the whole 90minutes..i went like 'Oh my...', 'like tat also can', 'i can't believe it' every other minute..best thing was, the only other people in the cinema(besides us) was this couple with a baby in the stroller..and this is an R(A) movie!

Compared that with the previous movie i caught the week before..it was the 'u-can't-get-anymore-family-friendly' Up..heartwarming little tale..i like..

From the wholesome end of the continuum, i dived straight into the raunchy end..the culture shock was like fwah!

So..anyone got Borat to lend??
