im sick. again. seriously lah i keep getting colds. the last time was before the medical checkup which was like so recent? shit. and this time im really scared that it will develop into something else cos i seriously didnt give myself any time to rest. i need some sleep!!

anyway, today was still kind of a good day cos 3/4 of sg managed to wake up in time to sneak into ac. muahahahaa. and gplow was kind enough to keep us under her during the morning assembly. if not we would have been hiding in the toilet for assembly to end.

in the morning on our way from the train station to sch me and ong kinda got a shock cos there wasnt any ac kids so we thought it was a special acsians holiday and that we have come for nothing. but phew. it was only that sch's starting 40min later that day so no one was there yet.

klim was the first to see us. and it was quite funny that she she kept 'ahem-ing' while we try to run away from her frantically.



and.. we had our favourite curry yong tau fu. woo. it's like ong's orange bowl in stnicks, a must-eat.



met up with feliciatan and chat with her. life's still cool i guess. for this is the school where nothing is uncool. hahahahaha.

it was then we got the news from gplow that lau has already left for australia for his masters. woah. i tot he was jus saying but he really did it.

and skw is in hospital becos of a minor operation i heard. get well soon!!

left some postcards for our teachers before we left for town.

my runny nose got better but my fever got worse after staying out for so long. sigh.

another must-get in ac. 1buck bottled drinks.





old ladies. the first one from the left has a sneaky looking face. tsk.

had our second class chalet. haha. in the middle of like no where. 8, 9, 10 jan. so i guess we would not see anyone there. since at this time everyone else shd starting sch/starting work/starting to slack or something like that. took leave for today and it was a good choice. omg. i didnt regret taking it.

sg missed the first day, we went only yday. ann's job ended at 12, jasmine took leave and so they reached at like 2? i went with ong after work. reached the place at around 730 in time for bbq. it was quite coincidental that we met gplow on the shutter bus to aloha. it started that me and ong were almost late for the bus and may have to wait for the nxt one an hr later if we missed it and so we ran out to chase the bus lah. and we chased a costa sands bus. urgh. we missed the orange aloha bus which was like so near us. and so we went back and gplow was right inside which saw the whole two-of-us-like-siaozatbo-run-towards-costasandsbus-when-aloha's-is-obviously-here scene. hahaha. it was nice to see gplow again, i mean how long hav we seen a familiar adult? and she got a j1 class this yr.

reached aloha and they were already bbq-ing. this time round the food damn little i dunno why. i think it's becos they got a lot a lot of chicken wings and oriental sussages which are like damn ex. so food seemed very little. and chl and klim came too. and omg does klim look like one of us. she's like the model of 'u can get a job and still have a life'. see. u dun need to go into banking to get a life. be a general education officer.[talking abt this, leeliquan is now teaching at a primary sch. hahahaha. it's like omg. mr lee. and u noe in pri schs the teachers paokaliao form teacher, maths teacher, sci teacher, pe teacher kind. poor kids.] ate food here and there but i was quite convinced that i'll get diarrhoea for the food. it's the 2nd diarrhoea in this wk, the previous one due to contaminated root beer. urgh. so im quite glad i took leave today, or else i'll be running to the loo all the time and the loo's like not very near to my desk too.

played our usual chalet games like mahjong, ps2, big2 and bridge. and of course polar bear. it's the best game we can play in a grp. but yday everyone is like either too tired or too bored of the game or jus becos there wasnt forfeit like last yr, so it wasnt as good. slept with ann at around 3am to wake up at 5am cos she and ong were going back to work. will die lah. i reached home, bathe and couldnt control myself and fell asleep. how to go work? i'll jus slp there. i've already decided that after these 2mths im gonna get a student. not temp. but student. like maybe fish&co waitress or i dunno. jus for students kind of jobs. i cannot tahan adult world anymore. adults are so so so so cliqueish and they act like how we are at sch. jus worse.

tada. second assbeefive chalet. not as exciting. but still. it's sb5. so it was good. haha.

hahahaha. continued from the last post.

actually all these started becos me and felicia cant get the spore pools job. and so. we decided to check them out. and maybe make them employ us after these 2mths.

and sat was 4D day. felicia and me each bought 1buck of 4D while yueyun brought her mum's lot down to check too.

it was like lucky draw lah. haha. they had these 4 containers each containing 0-9. and then the balls will go in circles in the container like in a convection current and one of the number will gain enough momentum to come out.

but it was really boring. and 3 of us jus giggled (softly) through the whole drawing process.

long day and lots of things to blog abt.

chronologically.

yesterday night. bursary night. my last chance to wear sch u. after i put it on, i was in this total high mood that usually occurs when im in sch. it's like, yay sch u!! i was like this over active kid among all the kids who were queueing for the bursary. there were quite a few aj kids, a few njs and a few hcs. and guess who i saw, wanyan!! haha. i mean, the last time that i met her during bursary was like in pri sch? haha. and she was queueing in the same row as me!! haha. so we sat down and chat and chat away while our minister was giving his speech, totally ignoring him though i really like my mps. then i started talking to anyone i knew there. it was like, i dunno, i was like in a total high mood and i guess it had to do with my sch u and my supressed feeling over not getting a job and then to get one that i dont truly enjoy doing.

fast forward to this morning. slept at 2am in the night and had to pull myself out of the bed to go to ica. had to change my passport photo before the trip to penang during cny becos the last time i went to malaysia, the guy at the immigration counter was like staring at the photo on my passport and very sure that the photo wasnt me. in the end he let me thru after growling 'change ur photo'. so yup. change of photo. went down to lavender, queued up to take photos. and i had to use water to wet my fringe to plaster it properly on my head becos in 'passport photos, hair cannot touch eyebrow'. errr. and then to spend another 15min at the counter for a change of photo.

when they said 'change of photos', i really tot they meant by changing the photo on the particulars page of ur passport. but nope. the lady (but she was nice) used glue, stuck my photo on this random page in my passport, placed a chop on it and tada, it was done. wah biang. waste my time. and i guess the guy at the immigration counter wont even bother flipping to the page to look at my picture.

and so it was time for national library!! highlight of the day. talk: Crime -- The Dark Side of Asian Cinema


remember some ago i went for the engineering fiesta competition and that we were led to this vip rm at the national lib? the super cool place.

yup. today's the second time i could go up. but for another reason.


hahahahaha. u can say 'chey' if u wan.

after the u-weekly article i wasnt really keen of going down to see him(and to decide i shall not like him anymore. humph.). but again, it may be a once in a lifetime thing. so i made felicia and yueyun sign up with me for the talk. so i was happily anticipating that 3 of us shall go this talk which i presume not many people will want to go and to listen to him scold the media or sth like that. but...... felicia had to meet her job agent at the last minute and yueyun woke up very late that she missed the registration time. hais. alone.

i guess since it was held at the national library, they had to make it look like an educational talk by some golden horse winner to inspire little kids like us to join the film industry. but it was a total francis ng fan meeting session in disguise lah. everyone brought camera except me. hais. and so i struggled with my k700i, the only gadget i brought there. there were quite a few aunties *ahem* ladies in the thirties and some other kids who looked like my age.

and gosh there are people who turned up for the event. the host (danny yeo) said there were around 180 people in the rm, and many more who could not come in and stuck at the first level(it was true yue yun told me cos she was stuck with the bunch 'who could not come in'. yue yun saw this really farnee incident btw this auntie and security guard. more on the auntie later) and yesh. us. the lucky ones. (and i got myself a sofa chair. shiok or wat)

while waiting for the man to arrive. i was busily keeping myself busy since everyone else seemed to have gotten a friend or two with them. i was furiously sms-ing everyone to keep a lookout for francis ng's newspaper articles for me, and at the same time amusing myself with the dhl balloon outside.


there was a huge yellow AA dhl balloon in the middle of the city. hahahaha. and it kept going up down up down up down up down.

and also, eyeing the people around who seemed to have a copy of 'today' each.



so finally francis ng came. woo. he is really much better looking in person.


eh. this is the best i could get out of my k700i. hais. if u think u see who u see. yesh. u see him.

from how anathony wong described him, i tot he was going to be mean. as in his words are very 毒 lah. but he was okay. if fact, he was quite nice wah. haha. couldnt rmb the whole interview but there were some parts that were quite 经典. (very very loosely translated)

first, his jokes on dear indie friends.

someone asked him like if hk doesnt produce mafia cop genre films, then what he think hk can do lah?
and his answer was 'a lot of people ask us why hongkong only make triad films. then why the indians everyday only dance?' and he started making some bollywood music and bollywood dance actions. hahahaha. omg.

and then he said that singaporeans are very white, becos we dun come across crimes that often and most likely we wont become part of a triad. so he was like 'singaporeans are very white. we, hongkongers are very black. like indians like that, very black.' wah biang. hahaha. then he tried to undo what he did by saying 'cos india a lot of dust.' hahahaha. (apparently he was at india like the day before to film some new movie. he said that when danny yeo asked how long he was in spore)

second, his buay hiao bai-ness. but it was quite funny also.

someone asked him out of so many roles he acted before, which role is most similar to him. and his answer was 'of course the one in 衝上雲霄 lah!!' and he started laughing in the 'joking joking' way.

then another asked him that since he had acted as so many diff kind of roles before, issit difficult for him? and he answered 'actually very easy.... becos i think i am very 变态'(and then to continue bursting in laughter) cos he said there was once he had 3 scripts on his hand and he could go thru all 3 tgt and still knew how to act as the 3 diff characters lah.

and there was this time he was talking excitedly abt his role in 衝上雲霄. i think he decided on that hair himself cos he said he wanted to look like a pilot and he tot that hair will make him look like a pilot. then after the day he cut that hair, all the senior actors started scolding him. but when he went to australia to train for the show, at the last day one of the trainers from aus told him 'my girlfriend want me to cut my hair like urs. cos she say like that then will look like pilot' hahaha. and he was commenting that takuya kimura in 'good luck', hair so long still can act as pilot. haha.

and there were quite a lot of questions on what he hope to do ah, if he direct what kind of shows he will direct.

and he said he wanted to act as a orchestra conductor. hahaha. cos he likes how the conductor moves his body in a very beautiful way. but the punchline comes from his last line 'but when i told my boss this, he said 'wont earn money one'.' hahaha.

and then of course on acting with sporeans lah.

he said something like spore is not a good place to film triad, mafia kind of show cos no one here have the experience. then he started talking abt the time he was filming then he talked to the people acting as traid members. so he called one and asked what they did in real life lah and that guy told him that he was an orchestral conductor. hahaha. so he approached another guy, that guy was a dancer. so he was quite shocked 'really ah? those back row one?' 'no lah. front row one' and then he tot 'oh. nvm. dance keep moving. wont see his face.' wah biang. hahaha. and then he approached another guy,a quite macho guy. so he asked 'u so macho, are u a 舞男?' and the guy replied 'no. i am a writer for magazines.' hahaha.

and he kept talking abt this movie he liked a lot called '再见萤火虫'. an anime kind of movie. wiki it and i found it's a 1988 movie. hahaha. as old as me. he said that he will cry everytime he watch. he watched once in the cinema with his sisters, and since he was like the older brother who doesnt cry one, he kept sitting backwards to hide and cry. haha.

oh no. i think i wrote too much. but yah. it was quite interesting to go look at him as a real person. at the start of the interview i kept looking at his way too uncool socks. haha. he wore like jeans (with holes somemore) some tee and jacket, for a 40plus year old uncle quite hip leh. but he wore at the same time purple(!!) new balance running shoe and carried this quite uncool black backpack. and gosh. the socks. hahaha. it's like those socks we wear in pri sch that rests peacefully 3cm above our ankle and then his was like thin thin kind with flowerly pattern on it. hahaha.

shall talk abt the auntie i left off some paragraphs ago. yueyun said there was this auntie who was really desperate to go up and see francis ng. she said the auntie was pleading the security guard to let her go up and stand behind the door, she dun wan to sit, jus want to see him. then she started saying like she needed to wait to buy newspaper this morning and then to fetch her son to sch. but.... she actually called francis ng 'allan wu' huh? allan wu? hahaha. the spore wu-zhen-yu. haha. and yueyun said the auntie called francis ng aka allan wu like how she call her husband. hahaha.

and talking abt calling him like a husband. i saw this girl also. i think slightly older than me. cos he had to take the lift down and so we could see him really really up close and this girl started calling out in this very weak seductive way 'francis~ francis~ bye bye~' hahahaha. omg. like call husband like that.

and after the whole thing i went down to meet yueyun and felicia and walked to have our lunch. hahaha. ever since we have to endure the pains of paying adult fares, we are like walking whenever we could. walked to sunshine plaza to eat this famous wanton mee. but not nice one.

and then to si ma lu to light some jossticks since we were there. and then back to bugis junction before walking to suntec. haha. shopped around, before going over to paradiz centre(by walking).

we were at paradiz centre to... watch live 4D draw. hahaha. cos it was something only 18s and above can do(apart from smoking, drinking and clubbing). it was so boring lah. and so many uncles came down to watch. we were going to sleep when they were halfway thru the starters. haha.

*update 12.35am*
finished reading the today article. haha. i like how the reporter described the way he answered his questions "in Cantonese-inflected Mandarin, with the odd English phrase thrown in"

early on, sg were like commenting on how they missed sch but i was quite okay without sch, but now..... i really miss sch!!

if i have school:
- i would not be rotting at home waiting for phonecalls to tell me that i have finally gotten myself a job.
- i would be able to see sg and not jus read their blogs
- i would jus have to pay student fares when i get on buses and trains. adult fare is a total rip-off. $1.70 jus to reach city hall? hais. i miss 55cents.
- and i love ac. yesh. i have come to realise how wonderful ac was.

i must say i have been very lucky to have 6yrs of good food. my first 4 yrs i had the best mix-veg store and tibits store that sells nice 50cents garlic bread and pizza bread and the nxt 2 yrs the nicest yong tau fu i have ever eaten. hais. okay lah. ac food is slightly more ex than other jcs but still, it is cheaper than hawker centre abc.

and of course all those harmless scandals and gossiping sessions. morning assembly. i daresay we have the worse sch rules regarding late-coming (dc everytime we are late. late mean 730 and still nt the hall which is like a 200m dash from the school gate which is yet another 1.2km run from the mrt station, now u noe why everyone in ac is so healthy?) but to run to sch and to run into the hall before mdmt slam the door shut is like (haha) so thrilling lah. and aileen my late friend. and the luxury of full aircon with chairs assembly, i heard some sch sit on concrete floor for assembly.

and lt2 the huge fridge for *yawn* econs lectures. sivam's math lectures with talkative sb5girls. angelinetohvincentloh's physics lectures. and the every-girl-will-try-to-pon swimming lessons. haha. and all the time we pon lectures to eat at the cafe. and more yong tau fu. klim and her 'do u understand what i said?' but we still love her. and lifts that (by sch rules) serve only the 1st and 5th floor. the huge notice board. assbeefive. staff rm with calling system. fun-o-rama.

gonna try my luck with felicia tmr to get ourselves a job each. and to be an officegirl. ):

i think me and felicia are the only ones in the world who can sign up at 3 job agents and still not get a job. okay lah. felicia signed up at 4. but still, we haven gotten ourselves any job. it's new year eve so no work for our job agents. hafta wait till 3jan to noe if there are any new job offers. ):

hais. this is quite depressing. being jobless is quite bad.

it's a great day for spore.

so the internet is slowly getting back to normal after 2 days of great lagging and jamming. heard from the news that it was caused by 4 wires under the sea which broke due to the taiwan earthquake and so we kinda have to share the wires left. after i heard this i was like omg, so we are still so back in technology that we have to pull wires under the sea in order to transmit information. u noe like the web, it sounds so connected, so 'remote control'. and then u come telling me that all that happen because we are pulling wires under the sea.

okay lah. so the internet is slowly coming back. or maybe becos there isnt a lot of people online now. but isnt it kinda mean that people out there at taiwan had their houses collapsed and on fire due to the earthquake and we are here complaining abt our jammed up internet.

and 2nd thing that i realised recently. we can take budget to places like taiwan and hongkong!! i always tot we can only budget to like thailand, brunei and places near us. but taiwan? it's quite far from here leh. so when do we have to start planning for our taiwan trip? wanna hav a joined one? so jetstar does go taiwan. hah. i was telling my sis this, and her reply was 'go and ask ur friend to give u discount lah.' haha. last time the mint and now jetstar. damn bad. haha.

2006 is ending really soon and i still havent gotten myself a job. sigh. pls pls gimme the spore pools job can? haha. it's like the coolest job we can have in town. 'oh so wat did u do for ur hol job?' 'oh. i went to ans people's enquiry on 4D, toto and yesterday's horse races.' hahahaha.

and the shows that i wanna watch are piling up. a-wang borrowed from felicia's friend, nodame, hanakimi, academy, catch the uncatchable, dif4, forensic heroes, dicey business, cib. everything watch a bit only.



and ron ng seems the same in all the dramas. those naughty teenager who makes his parents worry and in the end become one matured man. or something like that.



watched my third zhangyimou movie. the scenes were all so magnificant. they got like thousands of kar-li-fei to act as the 宮女s and soldiers. and they wasted like damn a lot of chrysanthemum cos in the battle scene they jus got tampled over. so i was tellin my dad that they were really wasting a lot of money on the chrysanthemum, and he replied 'aiyah. chrysanthemum is cheap. imagine if they chose to put roses. they will be broke loh.'

read from iweekly that the soldiers they got in the show were real soldiers. haha. 'soldiers. we have a big task today. u have to go and act in the new zhangyimou movie.'

the plot is quite predictable but i was quite convinced at first that gongli will succeed in her plan, she didnt in the end. damn.

lalala. celebrated xmas with yueting, felicia, yueyun yesterday. i think it's sort of a pre-xmas celebation. do u noe xmas is on monday? i tot it's on sun lah. so we celebrated xmas on 22 this yr. aiyoh.

so we started the day going to techpt. haha. my fault. was going down to collect my confession of pain stuff. and while walking to techpt we took a wrong route and ended having to walk across this large patch of grass. it was raining before so the whole grass patch was muddy. so 狼狈 lah. and while we were walking we came to realised that there was a fence around the whole grass patch thing. felicia suggested that maybe the grass patch is those 'state land: no trespassing' kind of thing and people will come and catch us when we reach the other side of the grass patch. and we were so ready to climb over the fence. before yueting realised that there was an opening in the fence and that we could jus walk out. phew.



the confession of pain gift is not bad lah. there's a mousepad, notebk, poster and a pair of tickets. but i didnt realise the person gave me the takeshi kaneshiro poster!! i only realised when i opened to see it when i reached home. i wan the tony leung one!! oh. and talking abt posters at techpt. haha. i think the people there are quite funny. the last time i went to get the departed stuff with ong, they gave us the leo dicaprio poster cos she was thinking young people sure wan leo dicaprio while the older women will like matt damon one. so i think this time the woman must be thinking young girls like takeshi, older women like tony leung. hais. gimme tony leung one leh.

so we walked and walked and walked before we went back to yck mrt and take 852 to hc. haha. cos there was track camp and yueting wanna go back and find her juniors. u noe how big is hc? haha. actually felicia and i were quite reluctant becos we didnt noe anyone there lah. and so felicia suggested going back to ny. yah. i also wan. haha. cos i wanna go find my friend whom i have nv met. and felicia came up with the excuse of wanting to go back to ny to find her pet fish emily in the toilet bowl. haha. wat the hell. lousy excuse.

but in the end we stayed in hc. and played cards. haha. bridge, big2 and spilt. felicia and i kinda trashed yueting at first. but her junior came to help her and trashed us. played until the hc people had this horror movie screening and so we zao to town.

didnt do much in town becos most of the shops were closing by 1030pm (actually it's kinda late for spore malls right?) felicia anticipated midnight shopping lah. but she saw the wrong date for midnight shopping. it was 23-25dec. and yday was only 22dec. hais. slacked around. exchanged present.

proms are troublesome. it's not that i dun like to go for grad nights, but the idea of shopping for dresses, getting ur face and hair done and then to walk in heels just puts me off. but anw, i still went for the recent one.

it was... okay. like any other grad night(or prom) but the food sucked. really. it was damn bad. comparing it with the one we had during graces camp and the grad night during our sec4 yr, the food at ritz is damn bad. sigh. i miss the mandarin hotel chicken rice. shd have eaten more during the sec4 grad night lah. haha.

and actually prom wasnt very entertaining. during our sec4 grad night we had games ah, bands(with everyone actually sitting down and listening to them) ah, the one we had at ritz was quite boring.

the bball girls. omg. why do we look like this?

went kbox after prom. and we sat there from 12am to 6am? haha. i think it's the most ex slot of kbox. and everyone was either during volka or smoking. it was only us who drank ice lemon tea.
