random

i know this is really random but well, i was meddling with my printer for the past 1 hour. was getting really frustrated cause it kept saying "no paper fed Tray 1". there's no paper jams and i loaded sufficient paper correctly. and i needed to print my notes so badly.

and i just prayed that it'll work, somehow.

and guess what, it did :)

Thank God :)

my sis is going to take her first test in her Masters course today. wish her all the best! :) love u sis!

p.s. Jo! glad to hear from u! jiayou for your last sem! :D look forward to graduation!

it's 3+ am already...

...and i'm just done with the transferring of notes for surgery. kind of done with printing all my notes and transferring stuff. but then i haven't studied/memorised these recent notes. i don't think they will be coming out for exams anyways (i hope?!)

not exactly sleepy but i have to get up at 7+am for a lecture at 8am later. better sleep soon i guess.

random stuff...

-just now at 2 am someone triggered the building's fire alarm. the fire engine came but apparently they couldn't find the reason for the triggering of the alarm.

-keep thinking of what happened yesterday and i still get goosebumps. omggg. i'm quite disturbed by it.

-my right shoulder hurts (for no apparent reason?!) ever since i returned to my apt after the fire alarm incident just now. hope it gets better somehow when i wake up later.

-listening to hitoradio online. love the music at this time :)

-not sure if i'm on the right track for revision for exams. u know what i mean, like when u r studying but then u'll think if u should be studying other stuff first or if u r missing out on anything impt. =(

thank God for the past few days when i was more productive.

i'll keep praying :)

good night(morning) world.

restless

i' m feeling so restless preparing for my pathology test tomorrow.
and also distracted by so many things. like, deciding whether i should go canoeing in grampians. feeling pressurised by the guys to decide by tonight. but i kind of made up my mind that i'm not going (for an obvious reason, and its definitely not that i don't trust the guys' canoeing skills). sighh, stop thinking about it.

i can't wait for path test to be over tmr! its my free-er week with no perio clinic and ortho seminar so i'll be really free. will be in the easter holiday mood after tmr's test. but okay, maybe i shouldn't think so far yet, cause i might be emo-ing over my path test. really really hope that it goes smoothly.

its going to be friday again =//

cons preclinic (i don't like u!) + gp clinic (another new patient). ahh so tiringgg.
this is so me, complaining that i'm tired even before it starts.

((:

was looking for new songs to download cause my itunes has been so deprived of new chinese songs. and i clicked on the top few downloaded songs. clicked on this song by pan wei bo, and i totally got addicted to the song. lol and after listening for more than 10 times then i realised that its written by jay((:

he made my day (:

random #1
i've been asking wai ling [sis's best friend who is currently studying in melbourne] for advice on accomodation etc. and i guess i have not much of a choice cause rent in the city is more or less the same - its all v costly. quite decided on which one to stay already. though its one of the better ones but here's some warnings from wai ling:
"(the apartment) fire alarm gets triggered very easily. so if you plan to cook often, that may be an issue. heh. not only that, the wardrobe is IN the kitchen"

AND the thing is, i intend to cook almost all my meals. =x

foodwise... she says,
"cos meals on average costs about $7.50,so $10 for city pricing is considered reasonable" and ... "the food from food court is usually too salty or starchy so you end up being full cos you're sick of the food, not because it really fills u."

well, i guess that happens everywhere, even in singapore, right? ha.

random #2
i'm ready to book my traffic police practical test. there's still quite a long time before my test and omg, i'm feeling so scared already. what's going to happen on that day!

random #3
i'm glad that my friends are ever so nice and supportive. cause my sis is fund-raising for her CIP trip so they are selling donuts [outside central lib, the walkway there] this wed and thurs, i informed my friends to go and support. and they said no problem. bigger thanks to jeremiah who's buying more to bring home for his mummy. ohmy, i love my friends!

random #4
i miss my friends =( i miss sch =(

random #5
i've just renewed my passport. i'm so going to miss the TOOT passport photo on my old passport. not sure how to describe the photo. i thought my photo looked "raw" - if u know what raw means in this case.

random #6
i love jay! =D i'm already trying to play his new songs on the piano though i haven't collect his album. haha.

hmmm.

OH MY, my internet connection is really bad. i think its because of the telephone line that is linked to my router/modem. keep signing out of msn. i can get quite irritated with this, so can just imagine how irritated the other party gets. anyway, i'm always appearing offline when i'm online so if there's anything, can just pm me.

I MISS MY LAO GONG SO MUCHHH! supposed to meet last wed, but couldn't contact my lao gong cause her hp was sent for repair. ok lar, i think i miss everyone over at ntu. please please come and visit the people at nus!

i'm getting kind of stressed up. lots of tutorials, and have to hand in graded assignments, loads of german hw (people like sean and yuanqi will understand, cause i'm always doing german stuff when we r together), preparation of presents and driving lessons to chiong etc. tuition lessons really burn out my weekends. but i quite enjoy giving tuition, so i shall not complain.

i was clearing my sms-es when i saw this quite recent message, and realised i misinterpreted it and misunderstood that person. and now i think of it, my reply must have sounded really weird/irrelevant/mean and i guess that's why i didn't receive any reply. oops. and i know this person reads my blog, so i would like to say sorry (if case u know who u are).

疼爱 by 萧敬腾 is really a nice song. the lyrics sound really sad - 我沉默 不代表我不痛
我不痛 眼淚就不會流 - (it describes how i've been feeling) but it has a catchy tune. i love 萧敬腾. hee.

yy is leaving tmr for uk. i'll miss her! =(

been feeling kind of busy during the week that has just ended. i've been running/rushing to many places. [and oh my, i was super late for the second MLE lecture today. heng there's yuan qi to chope a seat for me.]

p.s i shall make this post a light-hearted one [not that i'm done with all the confused feelings, its just that i want to make myself less miserable].

i met up with yuting for a short lunch on weds cause i wanted to pass her her v belated present. really feel bad ok. but its something REALLY special [to me, at least]. i don't do this for anyone so yuting really should feel honoured. ha.

this is the cheesecake baked by me. =D was proud of myself that i did not use an electric beater (cause i couldn't find it), meaning i beat it manually! and everything was done in 2 hours. hurray. oh, but the edges aren't trimmed v nicely cause my slicing skills weren't good. but anyway, v glad that yuting likes it <3.



choon chuan actually said it looked like kaya toast. =S i told chongren proudly that i BAKED a cheesecake cause he thinks that i made the simple cheesecake (those that need not be put into the oven. just refrigerate it can already.) whatever la. but of course it cannot be compared to the one he makes.


here are some photos of oweek. [okay, this is really random]

oh before i forget, i would really want to thank mitch for his help! THANKS. really appreciate it.

engin oweek I

i'm back from oweek. tired once again.
thinking if i should update about oweek now since i have some time to spare. ok maybe i should.

some things that happened during camp (in order - day 1 to day6):

#1 yongqiang sat beside me during the group intro on day1 and i thought he really looked like huang qing lun (the smaller version). and he sings really well (he's from rj choir btw). i think he's really amusing - his expression, his actions, his special skill (ROFL) etc. the intro session was kind of funny. i've got an ogl whose name is deddy (yup, its the same pronounciation as daddy - seamus was saying that he couldn't bear calling him that. HAHHAA)

#2 oh (before i forget), i'm from apache. we are kind of lousy at games (losing anything and everything we could) but we really enjoyed the company.

#3 we are always doing the same cheer (the one where we have to hit people's (station masters) heads) okay, we are mean.

#4 went for FIC (freshmen inauguration ceremony). quite interesting to see the profs dressed in some harrypotter outfit (their formal attire).

#5 stayed over the night before flag (cause it was v late after night walk). and went off in the morning (5plus). thanks to my dad who fetched me home =D

#6 and talking about night walk, well... it was not that bad. eddie promised me that it wouldn't be scary (not another fright night) but there was a component called fear factor. its scary (at least for me). and funshen (my nightwalk partner - some guy from monbi) said he would be frightened too. i was like huh! if u scared, then i howw?

#7 v sorry for pangseh-ing shuyi for flag. but heard the kbox session after flag was fun. aaron was singing some hokkien song which amused everyone there.

#8 wed was sentosa day. went for driving in the morning before joining the rest at siloso. driving was really cool (but i kind of lost touch after not having lessons for 1 week and so i was really bad on the road) cause i got back my old instructor - the easy-to-bully, teach v well and fast, and funny instructor. he was laughing when i said i was going to sentosa for orientation after driving. errm, like what's so funny.

#9 didn't missed out much when i reached sentosa (after helping to buy bananas at vivo for apache) cause the games haven't started. games were fun but most of the time, we had to get wet. the waves were kind of huge and i felt as if i would be swept away. so scary. saw some group doing some forfeit/task and i thought this person was really funny/cute. ok, i'm burnt from sentosa.

#10 shuyi left from sentosa during evening. so i was the only girl left. didn't want to stay overnight for that reason. but cause i didn't want to trouble my dad to fetch me home and back to nus the next day (besides i've got my stuff for stayover).

#11 after mass dance, we went for supper (hui xiang, feodo, seamus, sean, yuanqi and me).i ate the same amount (2 pratas) as the guys. and seamus kept saying that i eat a lot. and think he told that to others who didn't go for supper. that's like so mean of him.

#12 thurs was external hunt. but i didn't go cause i went with jo for the ChESS oday. oh my, thought the talk by the seniors made me feel demoralised. and i'm starting to feel stressed already. =( =( =(

#13 played games in the group we were assigned. our group was flooded with hc guys. during the introduction, everyone went "i'm _______, i'm from hwa chong" etc. and oliver and ken were from my sis's og for chess camp. that's like so coincidental. the hc guys were funny but thanks to them, we won every game. =D had some super boring talk after that (which seriously wasn't useful).

#14 wanted to join apache at vivo but jo,wen rong, mathangi and chongren said don't go cause anyway they would be coming back soon. and so we sat down and talk. the conversation was v crappy and i felt really tired after that (cause i was using a lot of strength pushing chongren away from the rest so he would not say any untrue stuff...-_-) and jo wasn't helpful at all. really felt so bullied ok!but seriously, i couldnt care much cause its so not true.

#15 joined apache when they came back. dinner was really good. there's like people cooking takopachi and tempura prawns on the spot. but my stomach felt really uncomfortable cause of some forfeit in the afternoon(having to eat this big lump of wasabi) so i couldn't eat much.

#16 next was finale night. too shagged by then. spent most of the time stoning.

#17 had oyster gathering at chongren's room at PGP. played saboteur/poker cards overnight. had to drink whenever we lost. but shuyi and i didn't drink so much - cause the guys helped us to drink - thanks guys! think some had too much and were a bit drunk - like john. haha. had only 1+ hour of sleep before we went to meet apache for breakfast.

#18 went for rag. saw quite a number of old friends around. rag was quite cool but the weather's super hot.

#19 and after rag, we (shuyi, seamus, choon chuan and me) shared a cab home. okay, seamus stays at serangoon gardens. so near my house. and he drives to sch. hhahaa.so he better knows what to do.

overall oweek was great. made more friends than during engin camp.

sch's starting. =/

hungry =x

oh well. i just finished the whole box (the medium sized one) of honey stars. my mum's quite worried for me cause it seems that recently my appetite is scarily big. the issue here is that i haven't been feeling full for quite a while already =x.

AND,
i miss my sis!

my sis just called! its only her first night in camp and i'm missing her already! and i'm going to meet her tmr at airport. will be sending both esper and pam off tmr. both taking the same flight to melbourne. so coincidental.

seems like i have the urge to blog quite often nowadays. quite glad that i have a blog to let me escape from some stuff. just for a while.

suddenly i don't really look forward to this sat's potluck. for no apparent reason actually. can i don't go! (okay, if shuyi sees this, she'll prob kill me!)

ok, that's the end of my break. =/
