Sian 1/2...

Wah liao... The first email that I read when I was back at work today is that there will not be any pay increment for us this year due to the economy and blah blah blah... Sigh... I was still praying hard that I will still get it this year... What to do... Economy is bad... Everyone is cutting cost. On the brighter side, our 13th and 14th month is promised. So at least I will still get my bonus this year...

2 down, 1 more to go!

I have finally finished 2 exams! :D I think I totally smoke through my second paper lor... I totally blanked out during my exam and cannot recall what are the 4 marketing strategies blah blah blah... Now I can only pray that I manage to smoke through my paper yesterday successfully.

My major paper for this semester is finally over so my classmates and I had a mini celebration after our paper yesterday. We went for dinner after our exams then proceed to KTV! I didn't realise until today that I actually went to KTV 3 times in this month alone. :P

After being away from work for so many days, I totally don't have any motivation to work at all today. How I wish I can don't work but that's probably only in my dreams!

My classmates and I took a break from studying today. So I met up with my bf and had dinner with him and his family. I was so tired due to the lack of sleep over the past few days that I fell asleep on my bed at 10+. For some reason, I couldn't manage to sleep anymore so I woke up at 1+ again.

On a side note, there is something I want to rant about. Studying part time and working full time is not the same as studying full time. So even though you may laugh at taking 3 papers as very little, taking 3 papers while working full time is considered siong even though you may be taking more papers than that when you are studying full time. The priority of a full time student is to study. That's why they take so many modules. You have all the time to spare and study. If you really think it's as easy as you think it is, please go take on part time studies THEN tell me about it. Don't come and crap about it being little or whatever when you are not doing it. In case you still don't get it, yes I am 不爽 over that comment. You should know who you are. Please think before making some stupid comment. You really need to learn to be more sensitive to other people.

Fat!

After spending many days studying together with my classmates, I have come to a realisation... I better start my jogging soon... At the rate I am eating with them, I think I will be like another classmate of mine who put on 10kg in 2 months.

These 2 classmates of mine are like real foodies lor... I heard from the one who put on 10kg in 2 months that if they recommend some food, the food will surely be good one. Haha... So far I have tried the steak from Uno Beef House, Chicken Rice from West Coast Market Place, Dim Sum from Red Star and Crabs from Red House. No regrets yet... :D The only regret is probably the weight that I think I am putting on... lol...

They are delighted to find 2 more kakis to join them on their food hunt... Ok... I will look forward to the next food hunt. But I really need to get down to jogging... Haha...

Exams = Get Fat Part 2

Wah liao... Exams is really the time to get fat... Especially with this bunch of classmates of mine... Haha...

We met up at Red Star at 10am this morning for dim sum. We ate until I can feel the food at my throat. :P

After our dim sum session, we proceeded to West Coast McDonald's to study. I was quite bored with studying by 6+ so I started to think what to eat for dinner. I looked at my classmate and told her that I suddenly have cravings for crabs! I can practically see her lighting up when she heard the word crabs. So after we asked one another, we decided to have crabs for dinner! :D

My classmates wanted to go one of the usual favorite seafood restaurant for the crabs but it was closed for renovation. As they wanted to eat those BIG crabs, we called up a few Jumbo outlets and other seafood restaurants to check if they have those big crabs available. We finally settled for Red House in East Coast Park. :D

The crabs were huge and yummy! :D I love their white pepper crabs! We really don't regret going there. The food was great and the service was fantastic too. Being quite picky on service, I really think the service standard in Red House is really good. The service charge is well worth it which is probably the first time I think this way.

I am a Smoke Ninja!

I just finished my Market Research paper yesterday. Ok... One down, 2 more to go... I doubt I will do very well for my paper because basically I just smoke my way through. I think what my lecturer refers to as Smoke Ninja,,, Haha... Luckily the smoke that I throw is still quite accurate. So I should be able to escape without any major injuries... A pass should be guaranteed. What's left now is just what grade I will end up with. Hee...

After my paper yesterday, I went for dinner at Uno Beef House with my classmates. Food there is quite good... Especially the chicken wings! Yum Yum... We ended up at our usual place to study after dinner. We were studying for a couple of hours until another one of them who was studying in Bugis texted us and asked if we were in the mood to sing ktv! Having not much of a mood to study after our paper, we packed our bags, book a room and went Chinatown to sing ktv! Haha... We were acting like the exams are over and we are celebrating which is totally not true! :P

Let's hope I can do better for my next paper. However knowing myself, I will probably be a Smoke Ninja again! :P

Supersize Me...

I have been studying in McDonald's with some of my classmates for exams. Wah liao... I can totally feel the effect of eating two weeks of McDonald's. I can feel myself putting on weight especially at the tummy... damn...

I placed a comment in Facebook about it and someone commented that I'm like making a documentary like Supersize Me. :'(

I am going to stay off from McDonald's after exams... I want to lose weight!

Randoms...

Exams = Get Fat
I just can't shake off the thought of exams = get fat time. Definitely not after I went into Cold Storage and bought snacks costing me almost $15. I still have some snacks at home too... lol...

Anyway I really need to get down to study... My classmates were amazed at how little I had studied... I think this time really siao liao... My exams is going up the lorry liao...

Cab Fare
Wah... I have been spending lots on cab fare this past 1 month. I probably spend $100+ on cabs alone I think... Just yesterday, I spent like $50 on cab alone... I really should cut down liao but... haha... I'll try I'll try... :P

Sway
I was working with some dye at work yesterday. I ended up with blue color all over myself even though I took protective measures liao... I guess it's still not enough. Feeling tired and blue, I decided to take a cab home after work as I was supposed to meet my classemates to study after work.

I was so happy when I managed to flag down a cab not long after I leave the company as it is always difficult to get a cab at my work place. Usually I have to resort to call cab. Halfway to my house, the cab had a punctured tire. ~!#$% Damn sway... I ended up reaching home only at 9. Sian...

A Relationship is Just like Warranty Card?!

I was out for dinner with Fred and Nicholas this evening at Aston in The Cathay. This was the first time I ate at Aston. My Prime Ribeye was nothing very fascinating but was quite value for money.

While we were out and talking about Fred's recent status, Nick cam out with something funny but true... "A relationship is like filling up a warranty card. People usually fill up the warranty card and send it out. You? You keep the warranty card with you for so long that by the time you want to fill it up and send, the warranty is already void."

So how long can a relationship lasts? Some warranty offers you a lifetime guarantee. Others offers a period of days to months to years. It all depends on what you buy (who you date) ... So how long do you wish your warranty will last?

凡走过必会留下痕迹

I finally get to understand the phrase 凡走过必会留下痕迹. Each and every passerby in your life, affects you in some ways no matter whether it's good or bad.

I have been through quite a couple of relationships. From a possessive boyfriend, to bo chup boyfriend, things that I have learn may not seem to be alot but they do leave a mark. I learnt that I hate to have a bf who is possessive. Who tries to control my every movement. Especially not when I have strict parents to deal with. But that was many years ago... Still, through that relationship, I realised that I need my own space and freedom when I am in a relationship. I don't like to have to "report strength" every now and then. I compromise to doing it with my bf doesn't mean that I like it. However I do admit that if there are somethings that I compromise and will make the relationship a better one, I will do it. This does not make me a good gf. This only means that I am too lazy to quarrel with my bf every now and then about something I don't like to do but which he feels is necessary.

I have a good friend who is so affected by a previous relationship that it is affecting his new relationship. It is a pity for this to happen but I can understand the effect of a previous relationship to this new one. I will be like him too if it happened to me. I hate to see this happen but at least he still have a chance to make things right. Let's just hope that things are not too late.


Handsome Suit

I just caught Handsome Suit at the cinema today. It is just a simple movie about an ugly guy who got his chance of becoming handsome by wearing the "Handsome Suit". I quite like the movie as it is very light hearted and very funny.

Lessons learned from the movie:
1. Looks do matter.
How many times have people make friends with another just because of looks only?

2. Find someone who you can laugh with and not someone who only looks good on the outside.
How easy to say but how hard to do... No wonder when I was young, my friends and I always say that it's 真爱 whenever we see a couple with a handsome guy / pretty girl with a not-so-pretty gf/handsome bf.

阿桑 - 叶子 ( FullVersion )

作词:陈晓娟 作曲:陈晓娟

叶子 是不会飞翔的翅膀
翅膀 是落在天上的叶子
天堂 原来应该不是妄想
只是我早已经遗忘
当初怎么开始飞翔

孤单 是一个人的狂欢
狂欢 是一群人的孤单
爱情 原来的开始是陪伴
但我也渐渐地遗忘
当时是怎样有人陪伴

我一个人吃饭 旅行 到处走走停停
也一个人看书 写信 自己对话谈心
只是心又飘到了哪里
就连自己看也看不清
我想我不仅仅是失去你

Short trip...

I am thinking of taking a short trip overseas during my school holiday. I have since narrow my selections to Bangkok or HongKong. Very different choices I know. Somehow, I just cannot make up my mind. I am more inclined to HongKong as I had never been there before but it is also much more expensive when compared to Bangkok. It's a hard decision to make... :P

For some reason, I actually missed travelling alone. Haha... I will definitely do that again one of these days... But I wonder when will it come... Sigh...

Done!

I am finally done with all my projects and just had my last lesson on Wednesday. Now what is left is my exams that is coming at the end of April. I had to miss a wedding dinner of one of my poly classmate that is to be held in KL because of my exams. :(

I think I should really start to study for my exams. On a sidenote, I got a High Distinction for the project of one of my modules so it will give me a good headstart. :) I hope that I will be able to get good grades for my degree. However, knowing me, I do hope I can really study hard this time round... After all, I am never the studious kind. :P

I went to Paulaner with a few of my classmates last Saturday and they were discussing about the different project groups in our class. While gossiping, I realised other groups have really terrible groupmates. There was a group of 4 in which one of them is a freeloader while another group only have 1 who is working. At least my group is not so bad whereby everyone is working even though on and off someone will give crap stuff. I am ok with staying with my current project group especially when I see how crap the other groups are. There just don't seem to be a perfect group I guess. :P

Finally I can have a good night rest from having to chiong for my projects over the past few days/weeks. However, I think I slept too much today as I am having a splitting headache now... -_-'''' I guess too much sleep is not good for me too. lol...
