Happy New Year Pull Your Ear
Sunday, January 29, 2006
I'm like super obsessed with this phrase now.. haha.. Started after the CNY at Hwachong when I just suddenly mumbled it and it stuck with me since.
It sure was a bad end to the year.. with me skipping all my lessons just to go back Hwachong.. go swimming.. But was worth it though. Though the Hwachong street market lost its appeal to us (I didn't dare eat anything those young kids made.. yucks).. the Mass Dances were still as fun as ever. And we were the only batch of council that went back! Didn't even see the 30th, 29th or 28th.. tsk tsk tsk.. we are the legend.. hah.
The exact amount of the laptop repair turned out to be $1152.. w/o GST. Don't know to be happy or sad.. happy coz it's justifiable to repair it.. I mean if the cost were close to $2K then i'd rather buy another one... but still $1K is still a ridiculously hefty sum to fork out for a freak accident (was it even called an accident?)....
So it's the new year again.. the Year of the Dog again some more. It should be a happy thing coz my own Year (I'm a Dog too) comes once ever 12 years and the wait is finally here. But well..seems like the Year of the Fire Dog spells bad luck for other fellow dogs.. and it's like the hardest hit among the 12 signs. My mother told me not to take it too seriously but it kinda sucks to start the new year knowing that it will be bad (think: laptop repair bill). And the only advice the geomancer can say is "Bathe more. Swim more."
I'm born in the year of the Water Dog. Hope this keeps my Fire counterpart this year in check.
Still.. IT'S A JOYOUS OCCASION! So here's wishing you all...
HAPPY NEW YEAR PULL YOUR EAR!!!

新年破产
Friday, January 27, 2006
"Eh I just opened your laptop ah and found signs of corrosion on your motherboard. Water must have seeped through. In that case the warranty does not cover water and you have to pay for the repairs."
"Water?"
"Yes. Corrosion only means water seeped through."
"So how much do I have to pay?"
"Altogether I recommend to change 5 parts: The motherboard, the heat sink below the keyboard, the keyboard ..(Can't remember the other 2). Estimated to be more than a thousand."
"Hmm.. can I not change some parts.. like the heat sink and the keyboard."
"Can. But the warranty will be void if you don't change just 1 part."
"So if I change all 5 parts the warranty will still be valid?"
"Yes. Give me your email and I will email the quotation to you."
"What is the earliest you can get my laptop repaired?"
"It depends on whether I have the stock. I'll include it in the email."
MORE THAN A THOUSAND BUCKS!!! wadthehell.. just when I got back all my money i'll lose them again. Really can sit down and cry my heart out. the only consolation I can get now is that I don't remember him saying he will replace my hard disk.. so means my data may be safe. And at least I still have 2 years of warranty. But still.. What a 冤枉 way to end/start the Lunar New year....
Going back to Hwachong tomorrow.. skipped lessons for that.. wonder if it'll be worth it. My horoscope for tomorrow showed an unusual full marks for 'Money', 'Love' and 'Attitude' tomorrow. Wonder what's in store....?

The wait goes on..
Thursday, January 26, 2006
It's more than a week since my laptop has been sent for repair. I think I pissed the guy at the repair centre off as I had gone to bug him 3 times already. Don't wanna get into his bad books.. after all my baby is at his mercy. But I can't help picturing him dissecting my lappy only to find it all rusty and corroded.. Just trying not to think about it.. but everytime I have nothing to do I just pray and pray and concentrate very hard that my handphone will ring.. a call from that guy that my laptop is ready for collection.
But well.. the wait goes on.
My SMSes have restrictions also now that my hp inbox is full.. I used to save all my incoming SMSes in this program on my laptop called MobilEdit!. It's kinda nice to read back past SMSes once in a while.. it's like a diary itself.. to recall events that have happened in your life. But now they could be all gone.. and I don't wanna delete too many of the SMSes in my phone now to make way for future messages.. for at least I wanna keep all the birthday wishes I had. It could be a good start to another collection of SMS messages.
I've this burning interest in fengshui now.. had a minor interest in it long ago but the trip to Taiwan heightened my interest. It's not only fengshui but most Chinese traditional studies like 五行八卦穴位配药... stuff that appear now and then in Swordfighting novels. Was in Kinokuniya that day before buying clothes and reading a fengshui book.. came back and started rearranging the furniture in my room.. after all.. I guess since I can't blame anyone or myself for the tragedy that befell me and the state of my financial drought.. I can only attribute the cause to bad fengshui.
The next day Meiqiang returned me the SECC money.. $576.. SAFCWC credited $187 into my account (I wonder for what.. but who's complaining about extra money?) and today Jingwen gave reimbursed me for the Block Fund. xy paid me back for the textbook and my tutee who originally cancelled tuition this week arranged for a session tomorrow.. which means payday =)
Though the lamp I put in the north-eastern corner of my room which is supposed to aid me in my studies hasn't yield its effects yet. Studying has always been clamped by procrastination.. and fatigue.. and though the textbook is open in front of me I find it hard to concentrate.. But at least I'm making an effort to bury in books so early in the semester.
Like I was supposed to be studying tonight but ended up talking cock in other levels.. watching TV.. talking to Mark and Chongyew in my room.. and now.. Blogging. haha.. At least I did my Science of Music tutorial.. which is freaking easy.
To a good day tomorrow.

23 years old
Saturday, January 21, 2006
23 yrs and 3 days old to be exact.. very much wanted to blog on the day of my birthday itself.. but well..
It just Sucks.
My first few days of my bday didn't go very well.. in fact right after the 'celebrations' I found my laptop soaked in water.. I tilted the machine and water came pouring out of the slots. It sucks coz I can't blame anybody for the damage.. it was my part of the 'celebration'. It sucks even more when people tell me "谁叫你不要出来？"
Like I wanted it that way.
I rather no celebration and my laptop back.
Just a year ago my Nikon Coolpix 3700 got water seeped in and it was rendered unrepairable because it was corroded in the insides. Fearing the same fate for my laptop I sent it for repair immediately.. only to have the idiot at the repair centre tell me "If cannot switch on 99% is motherboard problem. We have no stock for motherboards now must wait till next week."
Hello? Next week everything would have rusted to death la can you please open it up to check?
But I couldn't tell him that. Coz I still have to find a way to smoke through that it was manufacturer fault so I dun have to pay. And this sucks.
It sucks if I have to pay to repair for my laptop. I can't even justify it as a birthday present for myself. It sucks more if my laptop had the same fate as my Samsung D500 and have the warranty voided for such a damage repair. It sucks even more if my hard disk is faulty and I lose all my data inside.
And you know what is the suckiest thing of all? The nice photos of MafBrothers we took on that day itself were in my computer and there's no other copy of it. FUCKED UP.
It sucks that I'm suffering from laptop withdrawal symptoms.. I'm keeping myself so occupied now so that I won't think of using the computer.. I go to central library during the day.. go Harbourfront to repair my lounge DVD player.. watch DVDs.. Watch IHG... go for Chingay.. Go out buy clothes.. anything but stay at home/room and start being moody about the demise of my most prized possession of all.
I suck at technology. My Coolpix got corroded in Bintan seas. I bought a Coolpix which screen got scratched during Chem Eng FWC. My Creative Muvo just spoilt for no reason (Hard Disk Fault) 11 days after warranty over and the palmtop I've been using as a replacement just got lost w/o me knowing when and where and how. My Sony Ericson Z600 screen just blacked out on me 1 year after buying it and the Samsung D500 I bought got run over by a 2 cars stupidly 3 months after buying it.. and the warranty's now over. So the only surviving device.. my laptop.. drowned on my birthday itself. I suck shit.
I want to repair my camera.. I want to buy an iPod Nano.. I want to buy a Pocket PC.. but now I have to put all these on hold because I anticipate the repair of the laptop to cost more than 1K.
It sucks that I'm super poor.. I'm not paid for tuition.. I'm not reimbursed for SECC.. I'm not reimbursed for Block Comm.. I lent money to a CSM which ran off.. I lent money to a friend who is worse off than me financially. I have to borrow money to buy xy's bday present.. I have to borrow money to buy a textbook for her.
The more I type I want to cry..
I'm Lousy.
18th January. Lounge Opening. Block Comm Worksession. Attendence: 4/10.
Can't blame them though. SP rehearsal.. CMB meeting.. Tech Crew last minute duties.. SWOC.. Hospitalised.. Overslept. And Murphy's Law had to set in. The DVD player couldn't work when it's supposed to. The laptop couldn't play properly.
Movie marathon started more than 1 hour late. The food came down even later. Francis had to buy Fries from Uncle Vincent to pamper the crowd first.
"What is Block Comm doing? JCRC President had to buy fries for us to eat?"
= You are lousy.
And I held my temper. I was fuming inside at everything that happened.. piling on top of the anger and frustration of my dead laptop. But I kept cool on the surface. And all I did was talk to my comm members that I need at least 5 people each session. Come to think of it.. what a lousy thing to tell them.
It was a lounge opening but I didn't say anything to 'open' the lounge. It was a movie marathon but very few people came because it started late. Deep down I know I failed my first mission of the semester.
Just yesterday when I was PMSing outside my room to get over my withdrawing symptoms.. strumming the guitar away on the hammock.. Francis came to me in his usual moody mode
“这样gek seh啊？躺在这边弹guitar?”
“没有东西做嘛...”
“没有东西做就想想怎么搞好你的Block Comm”
=I'm telling you you are lousy. Buck up.
You know you are lousy when you don't do well enough to inspire successors.
Happy Birthday to Me.
To be fair to all those who celebrated my birthday.. It was really want of the best birthdays I have celebrated. Maybe it was because I didn't expect much in the first place. But it was extraordinarily great to have my 2 groups of people I value most celebrate with me at the same time.. albeit it being a massive struggle and fight but everyone enjoyed ourselves.. including myself. Thank you all so very much. =)
And it was the birthday I received the best presents (after my 21st). Though simple.. I really wanted a pencil box all these years (you know something that you won't spend money on but you really want?).. Thanks gabe and mark for that. =) And was very very happy with the cool glow-in-the-dark T-shirt by the level7 girls (Meiqiang, Yiling, Xiuying, Shyuan) and Zibin.. solved part of my CNY new-clothes shopping headache. And the colonge from xy made my day too.
And I love my Block Lounge. It really looks like a lounge now.. with the fresh coat of paint.. new arrangement.. rack.. hi-fi.. pictures hung up.. more spacious and clean.. It's a fantastic sense of satisfaction everytime I step in. Block D Lounge used to be the worst among the 5.. but now I dare say it is the best.
*closes eyes*
I wish all my problems to be solved soon.

Part 2
Tuesday, January 17, 2006
All the below was supposed to be in the previous post.. but I thought this date was significant so I should create a new post for today =)
Had been freaking busy the past few weeks/days that I only realised that day it is today.. after checking my horoscope. That's why my mother told me during the weekend to come home on Tuesday. Will there ever be a year that I'll forget this day totally?
So there was the time that I would yearn for celebrations and pray for many many presents.. But somehow this year's different.. I just wanna go through it peacefully.. I have nothing on my wishlist and am seriously just content with the SMSes of well-wishes. =) Signs of getting old.. or simply signs of weathering out of my cranky 'old' self.
虚实真假
An unlikely friend walked past my room the other day.. and he dropped by for a chat. It's been long since we last talked.. those were the days when we used to stay on the same level and we would just rattle all sorts of rubbish. And so we did again.. but somehow amongst the so-called rubbish I gained great insight to all my 'troubles'...
BTW he spoke in Chinese throughout.. haha quite comical coz he was going to China or something.. and so trying to brush it up.. think angmoh-struggling-with-Chinese...
And I told him about my Block woes.. (yeah this doesn't seem to get settled does it?) The troubles I'm facing.. the obstacles that stumble me.. the people who don't co-operate.. and he just replied with a simple one-liner
"Block D 是假的. 其实 Sheares Hall 也是假的."
It stunned me for a while. Simple as it seems.. it made a whole lot of sense. None of us wanted to be in this Block. They were chosen in.. if not randomly slotted in. And there I went one semester ago standing up in front of these people telling them that I will make them the best of friends which now turns out to be utter bullshit. There's no way that 90 people can clique together seamlessly. It's so much easier to follow your small clique of friends. It's so much more convenient to stay in your comfort zone instead of venturing into others' zones. It's so makes so much more sense to plan your own time than to let us plan for you. So why am I cheating myself?
So these few days I've been avoiding this I-do-what-I-must-and-if-you-don't-wanna-join-in-it's-up-to-you attitude. I'm not going to nag and whine.. to shout and irritate. Numbers don't matter to me anymore. They can all not come for the event I'm cool. They can leave and I'm cool. Comparison with other blocks is draining and there's actually no point coz the other blocks are not real too.
I should focus more on grooming better people (than me) to take over the ship.
感觉
There was a moment in my life where I was obsessed with this idea of feeling before friendship in a relationship. But when the floodgates are opened then I really did a reality check on myself. If I barged through the open goal it would lead nowhere.
Never really brought up my relationship problems with anyone before.. dunno why I suddenly poured out to this friend of mine.. and he again replied with a cool one-liner:
"跟着感觉走."
与其走到尽头,不如选择另个出口?
Biathlon
This will be the last few sentenses i'm going to type tonight because I'm so freaking tired. Started my 1st Biathlon training with Weijie just now swimming 20 laps within 26 minutes which we set for ourselves. (I exceeded by 42 seconds) But it was the 1st time I swam 20 laps non-stop all frontcrawl! (ok I cheated I swam 3 laps breaststroke) But I can't imagine running another 5km after that. I'll just die on the road.
Will improve with more trainings.
Good night.

Part 1
Saturday, January 14, 2006
Finally had the time to post.. or it's better to phrase it as finally having the mood to post. Had stuff to say the past few days but didn't have the mood to blog.. But it'll all be rattled out here.
Double Miss
It was a period of everything-falling-on-the-same-wrong-day: MATLAB Lecture, Funkamania Semifinals, O1 Campfire. Lecture ended at 6 so we (Tat, Caroline, Chye, Ejia and I) only left at 6.45.. kinda feel bad coz they waited for my lecture to end.. The numbers weren't feasible for Taxi so we bussed to Ngee Ann Civic Plaza for Funka Semis instead. Though the event started late.. we still missed Sheares Uncuffed's performance when we arrived at 7.30. *sigh* What a total disappointment.
We could have made our way to Hwachong immediately to join in O1.. but the trip to Orchard Road would only be worthwhile to all of us if we stayed on to watch a few dances. After all Tat was dying to watch the group of sleek Matrix-style guys so we decided to head on to Hwachong after that item.
Haha it tured out that their item was the 3rd last item.. so we practically stayed till the end of the Semis.. Not complaining though.. coz there were really many awesome items.. may it be formidable moves or wild expressions.. dances with 'storyline' or girls stripping.. haha.. couldn't really blame us for not leaving for O1.
And as I kept in contact with Chongwee via real-time SMS all the way.. we missed performances.. prize presentation.. song session.. dance session.........
By the time we (Tat, Quek, Siau and I) cabbed down to Hwachong.. they kids were doing their repeat of Beechwood. Tat and I plunged into the crowd immediately.. not wanting to waste any moment of the O1 experience.
They didn't repeat Wild Wild West though.. so Beechwood was the last dance.
Sianz.
Which meant we missed rushed down to Hwachong just to miss O1.
So we just stood around while the 32nd cleared the rowdy J1s.. who were (as usual) snaking through the Central Plaza..
At least we danced Speedy.. albeit using lousy speakers can't even hear the music.
Slacked around while the 31st.. 32nd danced their council dances.. and batch by batch the senior councils left.. 29th.. 30th... (28th didn't come though haha.. seems like we beat them in attendance again.. even with only 8 of us haha)
Jeff, Chye and Rachel joined us in KAP.. which was a short gathering. Actually strictly speaking it wasn't much of a gathering coz 1 table was the ECACO gang while the other was the MAFBrothers gang.
All in all.. as I was telling Tat.. we went for the wrong half for all the events.. the wrong half of Funka.. and the wrong last bit of O1... Singing and dancing was always the best part of O1 but well...
Looking forward to CNY.
Fulfilling
I must say it was a fulfilling day today though.. thanks to the CN3124 lecture being ridiculously cut short from 3 hours to 30mins haha.. leaving me 6 freaking hours to the next lecture to print my whole semesters notes, send emails regarding my referal letters and study plan for SEP, settle the DnD script, distribute remaining block T-shirts, take ERC photos with Duan, sell textbooks. Whoa never did so many things at 1 shot before. Haha maybe I did.. but it felt damn good striking off so many things off the todo list.
ShearesMuggersUnited
What started of as a rather insane suggestion to do tutorials together every night had a rather good start actually haha. Introducing the SHEARESMUGGERS - Chem Engineers of Sheares Hall! We will do tutorials together from 11pm to 1am every night in the Sheares Library together. 1 night 1 subject so by the end of 1 week we would have finished next week's tutorials. Well, for 1 thing we've done CN2116 tutorial 1 already! What an accomplishment.. finishing 1 tutorial on the 2nd week of school!
It's really taxing but I guess it's necessary to pull MY freaking CAP up. Already during lectures now I'm sitting in front with the Sheares Gang (forsaking my eyecandying aka distraction).. which led to a rather funny conversation with Diana..
Diana: hehe...no prob... coping well w chem eng?
Me: ha i'm striving to be a mugger this sem!
Me: figured out if i go for SEP i don't have many sems to pulll up cap..which is LOW
Diana: hahhaa seriously? ur yr2 now hor?
Me: yah.. yr 2 sem 2 already
Diana: anyway how low is low? it's currently at least 2nd lower class? or 3rd class?
Me: 3rd class.. haha every sem drop 1 class
Diana: hmm actually can pull up lar!
Diana: i managed to pull up my cap by abt 0.4 leh
Diana: so hor, u dun be discouraged! u can if u work hard... (but muz work very hard lar hahaha) Me: yah I noe must work bvery hard haha
Me: sitting in front of LT for lectures now
Diana: wah* dat's REALLY hard...

Late night thoughts...
Tuesday, January 10, 2006
有人说失恋使人成长,更成熟... so after every episode you upgrade 1 level.. and people like me still stuck at level 0 start to feel inferior when talking about such topics. MSN's a bad way to communicate.. though it is the most convenient.
It's now 3.30am.. I should have gone home but decided not to coz of Basketball Semis tomorrow.. I should be sleeping now but I'm not sleepy at all.. what a waste of fantastic weather and the hypnotic sounds of pattering rain behind my back..
There's a lot of thinking that I need to do. And I know I need to do it fast coz there are other players in the court. In any game you need to have determination, skill, experience.. and I think I'm bloody weak.
Perhaps my greatest weakness: Indecisiveness.

推陈出新
Thursday, January 05, 2006
It's the season of revamping!
Check out the NEW...
Lounge
Honestly it's the best and most meaningful thing I think Block Comm has done so far.. The lounge really looks beautiful now.. Though at times the orange can be irritangly glaring.. but there's always this dark green wall for the added soothing effect. New layout also.. Strange but just needs a little getting used to bah..
It's another boo-boo again for me though.. somehow all my Block Comm members just trickled away towards the completion of the painting.. some were sick.. some were tired.. some were dazed.. some were in ikea.. Only Jingwen and Meiqiang stuck to the very end.. But it was my fault that I also stoned abit.. So after I recovered from the minor stoning there was a little 失败feel.. couldn't end the painting with a debrief and thanks.. but oh well.....
Room
Recovering from the Lounge overhaul I rode on the momentum and rearranged the furniture in my room! So I scrubbed the floor (yes scrubbed clean) and gave it my all-along-wanted Office look.. facing the sea when I study.. But the dumb thing is half my bed is under the desk.. and the 风水 of my sleeping position is terrible la.. head at window.. feet facing door.. beside all the pins.. under the cupboard some more haha.. Trying to kill myself.
Hair
Finally got my haircut and got rid of the irritating bush on my head.. This time a normal haircut coz the hairdresser jokingly told me "啊...你要special的我不会做leh..."
But still.. short hair is good. I like. Even the cap that didn't use to fit snugged onto my head like a glove after the haircut. =)
And DIY dyed it.. "Rusty Ash" colour.. but to me.. it's just dark brown. Anyway it's the last time I'd be dying my hair.. too old for such stuff already. Hah.
Love Interest
Haha gotcha there gossipmongers. No updates on this section.
Go sleep.
Nitez!

2006
Tuesday, January 03, 2006
Happy New Year 2006! It's going to be such a weird year ahead... it's the first year that I'm starting to feel old. It's the year that I'd be 23 years old.. remember when I was in Primary or Secondary school or even JC I used to think my 23 year old cousins were terribly old.. and now that I've reached (or going to reach) that age.. I'm beginning to think that my mentality is still stuck in that of a 18 year old. And this year being the year of the Dog (my year) doesn't help in making me feel younger.. well.. it's another 12 years.
Don't really have the urge to blog after coming back from Taiwan.. There are many things to say but just lazy.. ha as usual.
New Year Celebrations
It's our 3rd year in the Esplanade. This year the crowd got a million times bigger coz of the 9 min fireworks publicity. Should go there earlier next year so that we can have a waterfront view of the fireworks (like 3 yrs ago). Though we managed to squeeze on top of the bridge at the back of hoardes of people.. we still managed to catch the spectacular display of fireworks!
Then I started to wonder how things would be like if I spent that time with the Vento gang instead.. aye..
Holiday Movie Mania
Caught Chronicles of Narnya before the countdown.. Really liked it a lot.. If someone threw all 7 books on Chronicles in front of me I will read them all! (yeah I'm lazy to go down to library / bookshop to get them myself). Like the Harry Potter movies I can't wait for them to start filming the other movies.
Just downloaded and watched 如果.爱. It's a nice arty farty show with a tinge of Phantom of the Opera in it. Songs and dance are nice. Not something worth watching in the theatre.. but definitely worth downloading.
And yes.. together with King Kong and all the movies I watched on the plane like "James Bond", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "七剑", "The Island" and on TV in Taiwan "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" "功夫", "猴拳".. I watched 10 movies in all! And besides the latter 2 the others are those that I've missed out and really want to watch! What a well-spent holiday.. haha...
Broke
Well.. I've never been this broke. The bank can't even deduct the full $5 service charge from my reserve bank account (which used to be full and fat). At least it's a consolation that I have about a thousand bucks yet to be claimed back or lent out (which I actually am not sure if I can get the money back). It seems that the wretched CSM has borrowed lotsa money from his other Specs as well and they have been hounding him to no avail.. so I guess I gotta wait.....
So this new year countown has been my cheapest yet.. skipped dinner.. paid only $1 for tidbits and prob $2 for cabfare. (Not including the $9.50 movie ticket which shouldnt' be included as part of the couuntdown ha)
Banking on my Tuition fee coming in soon.. Next next week I hope.
Lounge Repainting
Really excited about tomorrow coz the now messy and smelly lounge is going to undergo a revamp! New paint.. cleaning the furniture.. disposing off the rubbish.. and the plants and stones idea keeps getting into my head.. haha thanks to the 摆家乐 Channel 8 show and the realisation that the nice stones are koppable aka FREE!
Well.. just hope that everything goes smoothly and can be completed by tomorrow... And hope that we will have some help tomorrow.. it's sure to be very fun..
Talking about help.. Meiqiang actually asked me what time we are starting.. very very 感动 by that actually.. Actually she's been a great support this holidays.. going for the Sakae Sushi outing.. with the excuse of "我突然间想来support你一下".. being one of the first to arrive at Huiqing's place (the 1st non block-comm member in fact) and now actually expressing wanting to help tomorrow. Whoa.. 万分感动...
Another person that has been of GREAT help was Sir Matt Mah.. all the way from IBG to the Block Newsletter to BuayaWeek Videos to turning up for EVERY block activity to offering his Christmas Tree to doing the Photo Collage for us.. I really don't know how to thank him enough..
And thinking back another person that turned up for EVERY block activity is Gabe.. though often after much of my whinings.. haha. And Dong too.. and also special mention to Shyuan who will try to join us and msg me if she really can't.
To all of you peeps.. THANK YOU VERY MUCCHHHHHHHHHHH...
To my beloved block comm.. 1 semester more.. 熬过去吧.. promise to treat good one.. if i become rich by then..
To a great 2006!
