Super backdated pics from loser outing at PS that was taken eons ago (31st March hehe).

Me and Prisc

Me and Prisc (again)



YUCKS. the monkey. acting cute.

LOSERS. monkey and lily showing that they are proud of their identity at spotlight.

Again. they just have to emphasize it.

With Prisc. the queen of LOSERS. (now that huien is in aust)


They look better like that dont they? at least most of their face is covered. *thank god!*



EEKS. i thought i saw a .. ghost!

kbox @ Marina

my hubby, zun (:

that's me kissing my hubby. i think i'm getting a little delusional, i think its the long working hours. and hours of talking to kids thats making me a bit off.


SHE! (it's interesting how they can act cute and get away with it by looking really cute) i admit im a converted fan.

FAHRENHEIT! (without the not-too-gdlooking one)

I'm biased again.

This is some snack that my student treated me to, from Japan. and it's really yummy. Erns, if u do see this can u help me get it? i'll pay u back.

Me and Sharan attempting to take pics in KBOX @ Marina.

Yinchu's phototaking skills, he growing older obviously didnt help much.

Yinchu has improved.


Chinswee and Hing attempting an Andy Lau song, and trying to look like they were dumped too. *they've gotta try harder though*

It was my first break in ages yesterday, cos i have been working night and day (and it's killing me :( ). Went to kbox at Marina Square to celebrate Yinchu's 21st B'day and it was really nice seeing all the sevenD people again (: Didnt really sing much till sharan came and i got a little highh. oopsey. she's my liquor babe. and a cool one that is, you tell me how many indians who dont understand chinese can sing biao bai by elva hsiao. It was loads of fun, and i was pleasantly surprised to see that hochinswee and sharan came too. they are always MIA-ing.

Cheegake and Crys were nice enough to bring me some of the cookies they baked that i'm going to pass off as my own and offer to my colleagues tmr (: hehe. They would be surprised that peishan can actually bake so well.

Another break today, though i only found out this morning (after waking up at seven plus) that i dont have work today cos it's HC sports day, so i'll be staying at home till late noon when i've tuition ... again. And now, i'm actually prepping notes for my students.

I swear i'm a slave for my students.

HAPPY (BELATED) 21ST B'DAY YINCHU!

I havent really had the time to blog last week cos I was rather busy rushing from school to the post office and back home again to settle all my application stuff for both UCL and NUS. Just sat for my NUS essay test yesterday, and it was quite a disaster, I sat there for the 1st 15mins (out of the total 45mins) twiddling my thumbs, playing with my hair and glancing around nervously at the people around me who were scribbling furiously away :( The essay question was something along the lines of writing about the most significant sacrifice you have made and the impact on the person and yourself and also what sacrifices do you foresee a doctor would have to make in future. And it doesnt help that i am quite a pampered brat who has not made any significant sacrifices in my life :( not that i think many people in the exam hall has made highly significant sacrifices, if not they probably wont be blessed enough to be sitting there.
I'm going to start work in HC tmr as Chow's personal assistant, typing random stuff and hopefully i would be able to pick up some computer skills that i so badly need (: hehe, and also, at least it would be a working envt where i would be familiar with and stef for company.
It's really quite nice getting a taste of different occupations. And of course, it feels even better that I have an income. and my bank account is growing (: woohoo.
but it can be so damn exhausting.

it's so not my lucky day.

I'm really irritated with the Channel50 lady who predicted that I would have a lucky day today, cos it was far from it. I have no idea what got into my brain to say the wrong thing during lesson today, I swear my student is damnit pissed off at me now :( whoever said that teachers dont have to please students as well obviously isnt a teacher ... or should I say, I want to feel good after a lesson, and sometimes it just requires me to go that extra step and put in that extra effort. Either way, I think that tutoring can be quite an enjoyable job, and you can really meet lovely people, but it comes with that extra responsibility and it actually requires one to be sociable :x eeks, and morally sound ... and a role model. Which I have to admit, can be difficult to upkeep and maintain at times, cos i do let slip that i can be really naughty and rebellious at times.
I was just commenting that the man i like is married, and they all gave me an incredulous scandalised look. OOPsey.

MSN is not working, as I was just hoping to apologise online, at least he cant see my awkward face like that. :x

erns hasnt replied me. i think she abandoned me for her celeb friend. I'm jealous.

SEE, IT'S NOT MY LUCKY DAY. DAMN IT.

Work at Keppel Marina~!

View from the rescue boat, that brought us to st john's island.
It's really pretty when the water splashes up in the sunshine, cos you can really see momentary rainbows. I think i looked like a hopeless kid when i was exclaiming about it in the boat, but then again, I thought i was really really pretty.
This boat ride was really bumpy and fast, but super exciting. I hope i can go onto it again.
But i suppose all i can do is pray and hope.



Mel's Boat

Harbour Queen



Cheegake at St John's Island. Mel brought me and ahgake on a little escapade there. very exciting!

That's me looking very contorted. EEKs.


Cheegake, picture taken at St John's Island.


Showroom of Reflections @ Keppel Bay, taken from harbour queen. My temp job involved me working on board a ship (harbour queen), serving potential buyers of reflections @ keppel bay, a development that was up for the filthy rich.


Mel's boat, its purple with leaves adorning it, and really very clean and pretty. I was impressed (:


St John's Island

Joel snapped a pic of Mel sticking his butt out.
I swear Mel and Jeffery have very funky jeans. I'm jealous .. why do jeans look so much sexier and better on guys?

That's me, picture taken at my short stopover at st john's island. The little boat in the background is the Keppel Marina Rescue boat which mel brought me out on.

Joel, me and Cheegake on board Mel's boat. (Harbour Queen in the background)

View taken from harbour queen of the boats berthing at Keppel Marina.


Melvin giving his silly look.

The interior of Harbour Queen, the ship that I was working on.




Unithai, this commercial tanker that Harbour Queen kept passing on her rounds.


View of sentosa's cable on board harbour queen, really quite pretty isnt it?

This is also part of sentosa, but its too dark to really see underwater world in this picture.

Just some of the ships that are berthing at keppel marina, the place where I held a temporary job for about 6 days.


Me, caught in the act, trying to show someone a card trick. I was completely unaware that this picture was taken.


Jeffery thinking that he is a star, and not letting me take a picture of him. He has this damn cool pair of earrings (diamond studs), and now I am convinced that guys can look hot with ear accessories.

Sentosa from Vivo. It was my first time to Vivo.


The little rescue boat which mel brought me and cg to st john's island on.

Work at keppel marina has finally ended, i think i was getting quite enough of it, but then again, it was a fantastic 6days there. An eye opener for me, and the 1st time I was working with people who are about my age, but who are not councillors or yearmates, and I would have to admit (as i told mon) that i miss my fellow 32nd batchmates and yearmates too! I think there is just this chemistry btwn us that allows us to snap at one another and not get offended.

just for updates ...

I found (or should i say my dad) a temp job that lasted for 6days on boat a ship, Harbour Queen, where I was supposed to serve drinks and make sure that people dont fall off board (but even if they do, I guess there wasnt much that i could do). It was slack, but i went home exhausted daily. But nevertheless, i loved my job and looked forward to going to for work daily. I met interesting people there, from cute tanned guys- this pair of best friends jeffery and melvin to people from polys and ITEs whom I dont think i would ever meet, if not for jobs like this. But most of them were friendly and fun people, like Novem and Joel. Joel is amusing, he says stuff like, "i'm introducing a new friend to work tmr. He's really cute." And the rest of us are like, "erps, you just called your male friend ... cute." Novem is a really nice person to chat to, though she has very differing opinions from me and also since she likes girls, but then again, it doesnt stop us from being able to chat openly about everything under the sun.
Unfortunately, I didnt exchange contact with anyone but Novem. I think it was pretty obvious that I didnt want to ... oopsey ;) and the only other people that I would like to see again in future would be Mel and Jeff, but they probably would be irritated that a small kid is bugging them again. >_<

Feeling rather tired now, shall update more in future ... which I would be less busy since I'm jobless once again :(

jobless again!

I haven't updated for ages cos the Webmarshall Programme at Rajah and Tann blocked blogger and my webpage as well. Tuition every night also means that I dont have time for blogging (or any other social life in that matter). But then again, sometimes tuition can be quite nice, especially when your students are receptive and actually learning from you. Now i guess, i kind of understand what teachers means when they say that they only want their students to do well. So do I ... sometimes, when i like the student. Talk about favouritism. Now i understand why some people in school are labelled teacher's pet, cos biasness really exist.

I'm jobless again, now that my internship ended. And i think that I'm really going to miss the people there at R&T. It was a fantastic experience. Although most of the times I was bored (and playing with joonie ki, my neopet) but the times when i did learn stuff, like going for the case at the Court of Appeal, it was really an eyeopener listening to QL talk. I was completely swept off my feet, and as i was telling erns, I really would like to marry a lawyer now. Who cares if he is not handsome when he is charismatic (: hehe.
Unfortunately for my bank account, I'm not really planning to find a job so soon. After all, it can be really exhausting to be stuck with a lousy boring job.

"Class Outing" at Ed's house was quite nice. I mean its always nice to meet up with old friends and listen to updates about each other. And ed's new house is super super nice, too bad i didnt take any photos. Its like a resort/ villa. Selling his kois is probably enough to buy a flat, his home theatre system is a replica of vivocity, and his cat's house is probably 2/3 of mine (and it's 2 storeys... for a cat -_-") talk about living in luxury .. and i'm talking about his cat. Life is hard for commoners like us, aint it?

I think i'm meeting ahgake again tmr to get her to help me with some souvenirs that I'm going to make for my colleagues and bosses at R&T. I mean this is the least I can do after all the treats they have given me :) and hopefully, they wont find the personalised pens that I'm planning to make for them too childish. but then again, i'm a child compared to them. (:

Looking forward to ELECO this saturday! meeting up with the councillors is always loads of fun~! (: wonder how many people will turn up? And wonder if there would be a bball game before campfire, and more importantly ... would He come? (: -grins- Arent you guys surprised that it lasted for more than 1yr?

And on a random note, my mum told me not to marry wu zun today. Cos she says marrying good-looking husbands is inviting trouble, and guarantee-ing myself that I would have to deal with a mistress in future. AHH, no wonder she married my dad. HAHA (:
