Drills?

I'm still those that believe a concerted drill is not effective.

Ok at least its effective in preventing ppl from panicking. Or like the Wolf Story.

Disaster strikes anytime. Whether or not u have ur full commanding strength.

Anyway, this drill is not meant for us. Other than evacuating from the building and standing in the hot sun. EVEN THIS OSO GOT PPL TAKE UMBRELLA LOR.

*faints*

After being roasted for abt 10 min, we're allowed to go kaypoh at the "accident scene".


Rhino! The front part got buanged before.


Fire Engine? Can someone enlighten me wat the basket is for?

Half the morning gone, too lazy to start anything for the moment. N I stink! -.-"

Sidenote: Animals United ALERT! This picture is for u ppl.


Gundam War in Cupboard

Those 2 were my presents for last yr. N upped only now. Hehehe. 2 more boxes to go (or maybe 3 if Akatsuki has the 1/100 version).

Bugging Fans

I wasted sleep tis morning due to this irritating bug.



I hate beetles. For their scratchy legs that hurts ur skin, for their plastic-like propeller wings which flaps NOISILY, for their seemingly hard shells which make them look like commandos, and for their idiotness to always kamikaze into the fans.

At least I outgrown them. I used to evacuate the room upon invasion and wait till my mom or dad gives the all clear (with the terrorist in their hands or out the window). Now I battle with them, the beetles at least.

Early in the morning. 1.30am.

Bcos I dun enjoy the company of beetles & cockroaches, I'm terribly sensitive to the flattering of wings. I heard a soft faint propeller at my window area. I scanned ard for terrorists, plotting my plan to evacuate at 1st sight of Osama Bin Cockroach. No signs on the radar, aka my curtains, I went back to weathering dirtying my Strike Freedom with a Sakura pen.

A while later, the terrorist launched its attack. Me being so close to the window, turned to see Beetle Hussein doing a descent from BEHIND the curtains and landed on the grills of my fan which was IN OPERATION.

My gosh! It was jus 1 inch away from a certain kamikaze and having its decapitated body parts flying all over my room.

...

Damn Gross.

I went out for a tumbler (obviously to cover the fella with any chance I get), I came back, it was hugging the grill like koala bear. Summing up my courage, I sneaked up, eyes on the intruder, ready to retreat at any movement, and switched off the fan. The imitation koala hung on. We stood our grounds, neither wanting to initiate fire.

(Damn its sounding like some battle)

I could take it no longer. I was perspiring from the no-fan-stuffy-room and the concentration on the bug. I shook the grill from the other side. The bugger persisted. I shot rubber bands at it. No hit. I shook harder, almost crashing the fan. The bug merely shifted its position to another grill. I got bored and took these few pics with the camera dats nearby.

It was already a 20+ min battle and getting hot like an oven. I looked for something to poke the bugger. Pen? Nope. Paintbrush? Too short.

Guess wat I used..

My drumstick!

Ok. Its NEARBY and I dun have a cane or long ruler near.

So I poked, swiped, brushed the bug out of the grill. It lost its grip. N FLEW TO BEHIND THE FAN!



Its now in a more difficult-to-kajiao position than b4 and hugging the grill ever so tightly. We battled for a while more, until it was satisfied harassing the fan and flew out-of-reach on my curtain. I wanted it to DROP TO THE GROUND so dat I can trap it under the tumbler!

Now its my turn to harass the curtain. Shaking the curtain with my drumstick (still), the beetle only moved from fold-to-fold.

Finally it decided that it had enuff fun irritating me, flew a couple of rounds ard my room and disappeared on top of my cupboard.

Meaning to say its still in my room!

It gave me such big phobia that I keep thinking dat each & every small sound was made by the beetle. I offed the lights, pulled my blanket till the ears even thou I was perspiring like mad. I hate the feeling of its legs digging into my skin, esp the elbow parts.

Gradually, tiredness knocked me out.

N it was already 2am.

Sidenote: Look at the little stars on the sole of my shoes!

金玉堂─林大为

巨 木 星

巨木星的男女,做起事来一板一眼,不容易被挫折打倒,是个有「孙中山基因」的人,所以就算联考失败,也不会轻言放弃的。

巨木星:单姓(复姓为姓的第二个字)+名第一个字,笔划尾数1。属性为木

代表人物:朱卫茵、梁家辉、李嘉欣、马英九、郭静纯。

爱 情 观

  「巨木星」虽然对于既定目标,不会轻言放弃,但是谈起爱情来就完全相反了,他们会觉得很不好意思,表面上装做不在乎、甚至冷漠,其实是很喜欢对方的。所以,就算喜欢对方,也不敢对对方明说。也就是说,「巨木星」是一个自尊心很强的星宿,越有自尊心的人,越怕爱情上的挫折。不过,对于只需要自己一个人奋斗的事,他比较有再接再厉的心,「巨木」认为:没有人会拒绝你要努力的心,但是追求一个人却有可能被拒绝。多不好意思!

Hahahha..

  「巨木」有可能会在一种情形下,去追求一个异性,那就是得到对方很明白地「暗示」,那么他那潜在「调皮捣蛋」的喜感,就能让他发挥一贯的「孙中山意志」,破釜沈舟顺利地获得美人(或英雄)心,从此逍遥过著「幸福美满」的生活!另外,「巨木」有一个优点,他(她)不太会搞婚外情,因为「巨木」的价值观是:爱情应该要忠实,婚外情、脚踏两条船,是不对的!

对对对!

爱 情 IQ

  EQ讲的是情绪的控制、处理事情的圆融度,IQ讲的是处理事情的「智商」有多高,「巨木」在爱情IQ方面,可能只有50分,简直就如字面上所说的,像一块「木头」一样!您有看过「木头」还能很灵活的吗?但好处是,「巨木」的情绪比较稳定,显得EQ比较高,不过「脑筋灵活度」就要打折扣了,他(她)们实
在一点也不圆滑,越是可以信赖,看起来越是呆板。所以说,「巨木」追求异性的方法不太灵活、对于异性的「暗示」也反应迟钝。因此,假如你(你)想要追求「巨木」这样的异性,可能就要表现得「明白」一点、「温柔」一点,否则在他(她)那好面子的心灵下,你得到的回应可能不怎么样,他(她)可丢不起面子喔!

I am blockhead one piece!

恋 爱 对 象

  「巨木」是一种比较坚强的星,巨木男性难免带点「大男人」主义。不过,女孩们并无须担心你的巨木男友不体贴、不爱你,因为「巨木」本身非常有正义感,对目标很执著,他只是不喜欢强悍的女人,不喜欢被管,而且巨木男性觉得,他有必要负起「保护女性」、「疼自己女人」的义务。巨木男性喜欢「听话」、「温柔」
的女孩,不太能适应个性刚硬、主见太强的女孩,女孩如果要她的巨木男友「听她的话」,一定要用「温柔的陷阱」,让他乖乖地陷入你的陷阱中,而且还甘之如饴!所以,巨木男性适合的星宿是:温柔的「丁火星」、温和的「己土星」、静静的「白霭星」女孩。

  同样地,巨木女性也难免有「大姊大」的特质,有点男性化,好处是她的气质与众不同,一点也不三八,只会偶而在女孩多的场面,「入境随俗」三八一下而已。巨木的女孩,常常有出众的气质、稳重的举止,在女性的团体里,并不是人缘很好,常常是必要的时候才说点话,话并不多!男生往往容易被她那「恬静的气质」所吸引,直到交往后,才发现这个女孩「个性还满强」的!

常常是必要的时候才说点话,话并不多!Mwahahhahhha how accurate~

  巨木女孩比较麻烦,她喜欢的和适合的总是有一点矛盾,因为「巨木」天生的努力特质,让她不太能容忍软弱、缺乏主见、甚至是把事业做得「哩哩啦啦(台语)、颠三倒四」的男性,说得明白一点,巨木女孩就是那种有一点「大女人主义」的女性。她喜欢的,是看起来是「真正男人」的男人。而这就比较麻烦了!因为她自己个性强,如果另一半个性也强,真不知如何相处?所以,巨木女孩必须找的,还是比较温和的男性,譬如:温和的「丁火星」、静静的「白霭星」、稳健踏实脾气温和的「地牛星」男性。

我总是被困在矛盾中...

人 际 关 系

  在人际上,一个人的稳重度,颇影响他在人们心中的信赖感。基本上,「巨木」是属于特质比较「稳重」的族群,再加上「巨木」天生奋发向上、不服输的心,表现出来的能力特佳,所以朋友都满信赖他(她)的能力。

  不过「巨木」可不是「逸乐型」的人,他们对人际的观念是「在精不在多」,不喜欢「不健康」的人际。譬如酒肉朋友,巨木可是没兴趣跟他们深交的。因此就人际关系而言,「巨木」虽然不是能言善道、滔滔不绝的人,但是「巨木」的人际关系通常很稳健、很踏实,对事业的帮助也比较大,也就是说,「巨木」懂得把人
际当作他(她)的「事业」般去经营。当周遭的朋友还像小孩子一样,交往各式各样的朋友的时候,「巨木」已经开始过滤他要「长期交往」的对象了。当然,交异性朋友也是以「结婚」为目的罗,巨木总是会设法了解对方与自己的适合度。不过,也不必担心他(她)是不浪漫的,您没听过一种说法吗?冷漠的外表,总是包藏著一颗「热情如火」的心,请小心不要被「烫」著了!您或许要问我:「那『巨木』岂不是「闷骚型」的人?」这还用说!

Having indigestion here..

Chinese
Astrology

=========================================================
Your Lucky Element
Time Zone: PST city Longitude: -120 Gender : Female
Birth Year: 1982 Month: 10 Day: 17 Hour: 13 Minute: 15

The following is your birth chart. You are Black Chicken, born in the year of Black Dog. The first character in DAY represents you. So you are equivalent to Water.

Hour (kids) Female Soil, Brown Sheep
Day (you) Female Water, Black Chicken
Month (parents) Male Metal, White Dog
Year (ancestor) Male Water, Black Dog

Your birth chart was generated using the Chinese Stem-Branch Calendar system. The Stems, upper row in the chart, are Five Elements which are Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth. The Branches, lower row in the chart, are 12 animal names which are related to Five Elements. The following Five Elements distribution chart is produced from your birth chart.

Five elements Water (you)-180 Wood (kids)-1 Fire (money)-11 Soil (job)-84
Metal (mom)-156

Here we select an element from the Five Element chart as your Lucky Element. The Chinese Yin-Yang Five Elements describe the BALANCE. When the Five Elements are balanced, they are in harmony and you will be lucky. When they are out of balance, they are in conflict and cause you trouble. So your lucky elements are the ones that bring the Five Elements into balance. Usually the lucky elements are the ones with a lesser weight (score). Here we want to pick Wood as your lucky element, because your Five Elements have a better shape when the weight of Wood increases. Using the balance theory, we can predict the rise and fall of your entire life.

If I'm a Water with a Wood name, does it balance out??

Shoe Shoe!!


WMNS NIKE AIR DUNK LOW - Some Clementine color style

After walking/searching/researching/contemplating/thinking/more searching, I ended up with the above pair of shoe.

I noe RR and Meow Meow are gonna complain on the orbiang colors AGAIN.

Its like the only freaking shoe that catches my eye. After Parker/Barrow having no size, and the Air Tiempo not very dirt resistant (its a bit canvas-y).

The current/previous (aiya the maroon and white) Air Dunk is/was giving me a good time. Its so seasoned that the sole now seems more flexible than running shoes.

But the sole looks abt to make a hole anytime soon. It'd served me since I retired my Adidas Superstar, which is like, 2-3 yrs ago. Very durable, that's the reason I got back the SAME shoe, women's this time round, roughly half to a size smaller, and different color.

The next time I see a shoe I like, I shld jus grab it. This orange tick made me tour thru Queensway level 1 more than twice and only finding it on the 3rd floor. Its going off the shelf soon. Perhaps I should have asked for more discount. I got 20% on that one, off from $124.95. That's $99.90.

That's a hundred bucks. 10 cents makes no difference.

Y didnt I even try to increase its value!?!?!! (getting more discounts lahh)

Nvm, I got new shoe shoe now!~

The More I Dun Like, The More It Comes

I hate numbers.

Even thou its jus 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

I hate all of them.

N my job features me raging a war almost everyday on those units. 10 vs 1. Bullying me. Hiding from me. Preventing me from taking leave. Preventing me from going home on time. Making me late for classes.

I hate uncertainty.

They come flying at me. Nothing is freaking confirmed. Jus like soccer or any sports. Only when the referee blows the whistle, that is then confirmed.

I hate not getting the credit I deserved.

I'm doing 1+1/2+3/4+1/2 ppl's job now. Working till 8pm. Anyone noes how much work I've done? I still have a lot of backlogs. Dun stack somemore!

I hate listening to ppl who're not worth listening to.

I dunno y I have to freaking listen to everyone when no one is listening to me. GRR. I'm stuck with incredibly noisy/long-winded ppl. I already CORRECTED it. Dun keep saying its WRONG AT 1ST SIGHT. Its NOT! N I'M THE ONE WHO DID IT! U CALCULATED WRONGLY!! N HELLO??? Ur inventory is OFF!! Y NO CORRECTION FOR SO LONG? GRR..

N DUN force ur ideas on me. I dun freaking care.

Hello?

Listen to me can??

Arbo dun disturb me can???

*I seriously hope this yr can end faster..*

Good BYE~ Spoilt Brat!

RED CARD to the BRAWLING Rooney!

Orrbii

Who ask u stupidly scrambled and stomped onto someone's balls (*ouch* that's a pig that landed on u) and shove C. Ronaldo away. Perhaps u could have jus gotten a YELLOW.

Out goes England on penalties.

They dun really have the mental capability to win a game can they.

Owen is out, Becks barefooted hobbling ard the pitch (at least he and Cole still sticks ard, jersey and everything on, Shrek vanished), Rooney with his stupid red card, Cole substituted, Crouchy the Giraffe with his flappy arms, Lampard keeps shooting UFOs (or the goalie), Gerrard was on the verge of tears when he's taking his penalty, Carragher was nvr a great penalty taker.

AND RONALDO WINS THE GAME~

Hello, u all need EQ to win big games. Being England doesnt mean u can be proud and arrogant and win by ur fame. And crumble when n millions of ppl are watching u battle the goalie alone.

N Lampard, is the goal post in Germany too small??

There once was this Becks with his temper, now Rooney Shrek.

England needs some anger management course.

The only calm and cool ppl I see in England's squad r perhaps Owen and Gerrard. They dun even look harmful/malicious/fierce when they scream at the referee. Such tame fellas.

Sidenote: They have "good" wives too. Good as in they dun follow the WAGs

England needs more of them.

At least Becks had been tamed by heat, illness and age. N overshadowed by his headlines-making Victoria the Queen WAG.

Someone pls try to explain wat Eriksson is doing with his subs. Joe Cole out for Crouchy, when Cole is like the few better target scorer in the team. Y not Lampard? Then Lennon out for Carragher? If its for defensive tactics, ok fine enuff. If for penalty, ermm, Carragher doesnt have the kind of strong mentality to take the kick. Perhaps Lennon is better. At least he's fearless in front of goal. I dunno wat the hell he brought Walcott to Germany for when he is so reluctant to use him.

N Crouchy needs to do some weight training on his arms. He looks very inproportionate.

In fact, he looks like these hand drums when he runs and turns.


Credits to I forgot who.

His arms resemble those strings. Pity all those who got slapped by him in the face. He cant head, he cant dribble, he cant shoot, he's perhaps only useful for stopping passes with his long legs.

So, GOODBYE Brats. Hello Portugal (with a not very famous squad), for diminishing England for the 3rd time consecutively.

N I finally got the trick to watching TV.ants. I'm supposed to be choosing the channel with the most ppl to get smooth shows. HAHA. P2PTV is great. Fuzziness can be tolerated than some underhanded trick used by some service provider to get subscribers.

But I cannot fanthom that BRAZIL LOST!?!??!?

I was still predicting that Portugal will bow out the next match against Brazil, when Brazil's match was scheduled after England. I thot they'll win France.

Like what was always said, The Ball is ROUND. No one is CONFIRMED WINNER.

Germany Italy, France Portugal up next.

I'm Freaking Weak

I nvr imagined I'm so weak.

I ALMOST FAINTED IN MRT.

For no apparent reason. AT ALL.

WAH RAOZ.. To think that I WAS a basketball player. Retired one that is.

Most prob its my low bloody pressure that's messing me up.

I was happily taking the mrt home from City Hall, with yet another Gundam model kit in tow, standing at the joint of the mrt. It wasnt very crowded, and I started reading my manga.

A few stations later, my back started aching. At Dover, I looked up from my manga. Somehow I felt that I shld alight. I din.

Bad decision.

From Dover to Clementi, it was a terribly long journey. I felt like puking. My view started losing its color. Like I said, for no reason AT ALL.

For a terrible few long seconds (cant be minutes when the journey from Dover to Clementi isnt very long), I thot I gonna black out n faint. Like so malu like dat. My view deterioted to only patches of light. I'm too weak to even alight at Clementi. My ears felt like there's something blocking. I was breaking out in cold sweat.

I fumbled ard my bag for tissues, while my ears still feel blocked. Its so bad that I had to close my eyes while leaning on the wall of the train. It slowly got better n the color came back. For a few seconds only. N it started again.

By this time, the train was approaching JE. Thankfully I got a seat where I closed my eyes n went to sleep for 2 stations. And I was perspiring profusely when I alight. The back of my shirt was wet, my forehead was covered in beads of perspiration.

At least I felt good enuff to alight and walk home.

I wonder if I had vertigo (the blocked ears) or something.

Haiz.

I'm damn weak.

When All Else Fails, Kick Up A Ruckus

After a truly long phonecall to the class administrator...

Well it was a 顺便 ask kinda thing since I was in SIM on my part, but they managed to tweak the system even though class is full. (which means the class is not exactly full, but they're trying to extend the studying yrs for students??)

Thus I could squeeze all my modules for next yr.

PROVIDED I pass all my modules for 1st yr. *pass pass pass x 1247121246397 times*

BUT I NEEDA GO CLASS ON SATURDAYS!!

& Fridays for the record.

Nvm. Starting class next monday. Mktg. My fav. *grins*

Some Rotating Tower, Luge, Skyride, and Cold Bug

I have a persistent flu/cold bug that persistently doesnt wanna go away.

Dun tell me its trying to apply for a PR.

NOOoooOOoOOoooo...

Anyway, I went Sentosa to waste the 4 Carlsberg promotion tickets for the Sky Tower.


Carlsberg Sky Tower

Its supposed to bring u up 100m+ to view the scenery. It had been a rainy morning (which I reluctantly drag my wormy body out from the nuahing state I'm usually in on weekends) so the view was very dark and foggy.


Cable Cars, Superstar Virgo and Superstar Gemini which was hidden


World's(??) busiest port with CBD in the background


Containers at the port. Reminds me of my art FYP


All the barges and bunkers waiting for their turn to be brought in


I din took this at the peak. It was when we're descending.

After the boring (and dizzy) Sky Tower once-in-a-lifetime-is-enuff experience, we went for some excitement. (Not b4 contributing to be 1 of the 4 million smiles to welcome the IMF delegates)


Luge and Skyride Tickets. $8 only.


Queing up for Luge-ing

Ok this Luge thing is not the one where u lie flat and control with ropes. Its jus like a scooter kinda thing where u control by pulling the handlebars.


N this is obviously not me.

Its seriously FUN! Dun miss it if u're in Sentosa. It beats ALL the so-called theme-parks in SG. There's a track with some obstacles to add the fun and dodge all the slow drivers and hazards who e. brake in front of u. Me and RR were InitialD-ing all the way, overtaking each other at corners, hearing the "engine"(its jus the base or wheels going clok clok clok), and avoiding the little kids all jammed up at one pt.

For 8 bucks, its serious fun and entertaining. Other than being fiercely told off by the fella at the ending line to keep my leg in the cart.

Ok I was trying to brake AT THE FINISH LINE, with my legs that is, cos the cart is still moving when u pull the handle bar back. Think I sped to fast to overtake. Hehhehhee.

Sorry lah, no license yet.

N I thot that finish line means, END LIAO MAHHH..


Thats the finish line that I kana scolding.

We're still supposed to continue driving to park the carts at the que some distance away.

So fun~

But I think I'll be a dangerous driver out on the roads.

Speed speed speed.... whooshhh

Hohohoohoo

Actually this skyride thing was the one that we wanted to take initially. It's only supposed to bring those that had Luged down back up the hill. N we thot its a transportation to the beach. Ahhahha..


On the skyride floorless chairs.


View of CBD from Skyride


Other ppl Luge-ing.

After a long walk from Siloso beach to Palawan beach, we went Tiong Bahru for dinner.


Beef Paper Pot.

Its at least better than the made-RR-and-Meow-Meow-sniff spicy ramen. Ahhahhaha.. Kana conned by Birdy.

N I'm still sniffing like mad after posting this + drinking Nin Jiom Cold Remedy.

*stuffs tissue paper up nose*

Victim of Communication Dysfunction

Thanks to the confusing emails and the super duper confusing letters with so many dates, and I dunno which batch shld I belong to,(N one letter which I only received half an hr ago telling me TODAY is the deadline of eCR) that SIM sent, I'm officially announcing that I've been added another yr to my academic life.

Cant they jus send an email with the subject as, LAUNCH of eCR. Or eCR starts today. Its so much clearer!

Anyway, story goes, I got an email notification in my hotmail, saying there's a new notice in the SIM student portal. It read something like TODAY IS THE DEADLINE OF ECR.

I was shocked. I DIN EVEN NOE IT STARTED!!

All the emails and notices I received b4 this was all the FAQs and subject offered and stuff like dat.

NOT ONE ON THE LAUNCH DATE.

N naturally I got frantic. I've 5 modules to chiong next yr initially, ending my course at the original timing.

I cracked my head, clicked here and there b4 I knew wat the abbreviations mean and wat the course is abt, made my 5 selections (OT, CF, ICP, MACRO, MKTG) and clicked NEXT.

I saw the timetable.

!$#@^!@$%#@@!$%$#@

OT ONLY HAD ONE CLASS!! IN TERM 2!! AND ITS FULL!!! AND TO THINK THAT ITS A FOUNDATION UNIT!! SHLDNT THEY HAVE MORE CLASSES!?!?!??!??!?!

AND MACRO TERM 2 FULL. I HAD TO CHOOSE TERM 1, FORGOING CF, WHICH THE CLASS FOR TERM 2 IS FULL!!

%^*&*^)%#$@#

Means I can only take 3 modules next yr bcos class is full, n class is full bcos of those confusing notices that I received.

ARGH!

Now I'm wishing those dat take OT and CF in Term 2 had to do resit for previous papers. Or drop out. Mwahahahaha.

I is evil.

With dat, I felt rotten, doing nothing much for the whole afternoon, while the bosses go for meetings here n there.

Then my boss hinted/indirectly ask me to come back tmr n help him do biz plan.

There goes my beauty sleep.

With all these nonsense, I ran off work early to spend $$ release stress. Well, not exactly earlier than knockoff time, but earlier than the time I usually walk out of office.

I wanna get my Diesel.

So I went Orchard, happily thinking that Tangs would have my size. The Barrow is still there when I got there but somehow I got attracted by the brown threadings of Parker. I wanna try both.

Ends up, Parker only has size 9 and 10. Barrow, 5 and 7 onwards. 7 is rather big for me. I needa 6 or 6.5. OUTTA STOCK!!

This is not a good day for me.

So I asked the fella, if he noes any Diesel stores ard. He directed me to RSH next door as they carry Diesels oso. So with that I assume Diesel has no concept stores in Singapore.

I was wrong.

I jus checked. There's one in Paragon.

And to think that I walked/bus-ed from Tangs to Suntec for RSH hunting for the Diesels, there's one Diesel STORE jus A FEW BUILDINGS DOWN.

ARGH!!

I've already said. Today wasnt my day.

But I got a Billabong leather bag. Nah, I jus had the urge to swipe my card and carry something big in my hand.

And YES I needed a bag for my kana-stuffed-laptop-until-seams-breaking Ripcurl bag.

Now I needa shop for more clothes. N shoes.

Top 10 Boys to Watch of World Cup (Baleked)

1) Saviola Javier - Argentina 7 F (Right)


He's too lethal. If not, how can 1 photo bring him up to the top of my chart? I dun even noe who he is! SO cute~

2) Joe Cole - England 11 M


Hmm. He looks like Robbie Williams? Or Joey from Friends? Anyway, PRETTY BOY~ N he's got the skills to boot! For scoring 1 goal and assisting the other in ENG - SWE match


Pretty boy~

3) Miroslav Klose - Germany 11 F


Having the most goals (4 currently) and pretty good looks, Germany is a hot contender for this yr's World Cup.

4) Hidetoshi Nakata - Japan 7 M


POSTER BOY~~ But Japan is going out of the competition soon. Too soon.

5) Arne Friedrich - Germany 3 D


He looks like Overmars.

6) Junichi Inamoto - Japan 17 M


Such chubby cheeks!

7) Bernd Schneider - Germany 19 M


The 3rd German. Footballers look quite good when they groom up.

8) Steven Gerrard - England 4 M


Steady skills, not trying to be flashy, and down-to-earth lad like Owen.

9) Yoshikatsu Kawaguchi - Japan 23 GK


Thou not the number 1 man of Japan, he's marvellous goalkeeping skills at rejecting a penalty earns him a spot. N another female fan.

10) Pavel Nedved - Czech Republic 11 M


'nuff said. His locks looks good flying ard.

Some funny names from WC.

1) Paulo Wanchope (Costa Rica)
For the whole of Germany vs Costa Rica game (apparently that's the only game I watched from start till end), the commentary was going,"Wanchope.. Wanchope.. Wanchope.." Pork Chop, Lamb Chop, Chicken Chop, Chop Chop Chop!

2) Sabrosa Simao (Portugal)
40 cents?? 4 fur?? 4 hats?? 4 cats??

3) Frank Lampard (England)
The last name sounds very vulgar. But watch for him to start striking goals

4) Peter Crouch (England)
His name and his height, dun they complement each other? PETER!! CROUCH! *ball sails over his head for Owen in the open* MWAHHAHHAHA


Sometimes u wonder wat a giraffe is doing in front of goal.


26 cm difference. Crouch at 198, Owen at 172.

& I hate Rodney. JINX!!



*ok if anyone noticed, Sweden & England had the SAME jersey design from Umbro.

The Temporary Boon Lay Interchange

Is Freaking @#$%^@#$%#$#$!!!!

Y is my 179 situated so far away!?!?!?!?!

Its so irrational to walk 4/5 of a circle to know that u can walk THE OTHER WAY! Jus cross a few small bus lanes and abt a hundred meters away, dats it.

They shld have put a sign on THE OTHER SIDE.

I must have walked like 400m to Berth 8 from the MRT station, passing by ques that snaked way out of its premises. Its freaking messy.

Note to SBS: No use drawing yellow lines on the floor. People in Singapore have eyes that look straight. Or up waiting for money to drop from the sky. They dun look for money on the floor. Dun thrift on more metal barriers bcos, DATS THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE THEM QUE!!! Otherwise, they'll jus stupidly que ACROSS and then AROUND the interchange, not ALONG the yellow lines!

This is not without research, pls see my earlier post.


I took-ed the picture

SBS shld pay for my Diesel (transportation fee).

Quest for New Shoes

When Librans are faced with more than 1 choice, they encounter technical breakdowns.


Diesel Barrow Off-White, going for $149 @ Tangs. 10% or not, not sure.


Some Nike shoe which looks like this, but its white, with maroon tick and black soles. Going for $91 at some football shop at Lucky Plaza. Din get the name as we were too distracted by the $110 England jersey and I din get any pictures even after clicking 100+++ times on yahoo searches.

I'm leaning towards the Barrow, jus that the sole doesnt look as durable. But it looks so rugged~

Yup I'll get dat, next week, if I dun see any other distractions.

I Have Extreme Palms

I went to a palmist today.


My Palms

Those were the railway tracks/stitches/ladders the palmist drew.

Quite accurate.

But a lot of questions I dunno how to answer.

1) How's ur temper? Err.. Like no temper leh..
2) What u do when u're very angry? Huh? *silence* *silence VERY LONG* Cannot remember when was the last time I was angry. Nvr?

He saw that I am/shld be a short-tempered person. Ya, USED to be. And I cannot remember when my short-temperedness lost its way back to me. My dad went for a reading when I was very young and the person oso said I'm the "qia zha bor" kind. Hohoho.

I is dangerous. *Ahohoho*

I is very fussy oso. *Ahohohohohoho* I'm a practical analytical meticulous perfectionist.

And I can rise to be one of the top mgmt. 0.0 woahhh..

N cannot work for small companies. Ahahhahha.

Mid 24 to 25 is a good cycle for me. Job-wise n study-wise. Hehehhhehe. 1 more yr. N I shld be studying systematically/consistently, i.e. cannot last-min. Ah!

N I'm supposed to be good in maths and figures. -.-" N dabble in arts. (music consider?)

Love-wise, 3 more yrs for a stable one. Mid-24 (again!) will start attracting ppl. MWAHHAHA. *bzzz bzzbzbbbzz (electric-transmitting)*

Puppy-(woof)love in 16-18. Hmm...... true true.

N I'm the bo kui type. As in, no energy, not robust. Hehe. Simply put, WEAK. yeah. Need to jiak bor.

N I shld learn yoga or taichi or medication. I'm seriously considering this.

N my energy lvl disappears rapidly after 1.30am. No late nites for me.

Possible to travel but only short vacations. No bagpackings for me cos not robust la.

He advised I arrange my teeth. (Dentist I'm throwing $$ to u again) N remove the small tiny mole spot on my left wrist. He actually say I can scrape it off with a sharp knife after numbing it.. MYSELF! ermm.. so risky. WRIST leh.

N my left hand doesnt agree with my right hand! Extreme contrast. Mwehhehehhehe.
1) I can save $$, but doesnt mind spending big oso.
2) Ambitious but doesnt have the energy to match. 心有余而力不足.
3) My right hand shows that I can concentrate for 2-3 hrs but my left hand says I'll be brain dead after short periods of concentration oso. (n I think the palmist caught me zoning off oso. HAhahhhaa)

I is contradicting fella.

The "Non-Existent" Yellow Line


Taken at crowded City Hall MRT station


Taken at not crowded Lakeside (or Boon Lay) MRT station
(Line's a bit crooked..)

See.. Crowded not crowded oso liddat.

Perhaps we need new technology to conform these ppl and instill a bit of considerateness that u're supposed to stand at the OTHER SIDE of the yellow line.

Maybe something like this..


Smoke Screen.

AHHAHAHA..

X-Men III



I think I'm addicted to Cathay seats. So comfy. Watched X-Men III there, in The Grand Cathay. Its freaking huge. Rows A to V, 9 seats each on the side aisles, 16 in the centre, per row. But bcos its so huge, the screen looks small, and the sound effects seems diffused.

Seriously, I cannot recall anything abt X-Men and X-Men II althou I'm pretty sure I watched X-Men. This X-Men III leh, the plot is not as strong as the previous ones. N Y ALL THE X-MEN SO USELESS?? N Cyclops died so early bcos he got a role in Superman Returns? N Rouge is no more mutant?? Mystic too? Angel is a vase that saves his father n convince him that mutants r good bcos he saved his life? Duplicator jus reminds me of Naruto (Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!). Hahahha..

N pls.. no more part IV if the X-Men r jus gonna get more useless. N III is Final Stand already! Dun Dun. Dun be like Star Wars..

Ya I got the liquid paper offence.


Liquid Paper Offence


Enlarged

N I did badly for ME. I was totally blank when I flipped the exam paper. Seriously blank. I dun see any 25 marks theory questions I can smoke thru in Section B. There's totally no pure theory questions compared to 2005's paper. Monopsony, MRP=ME=W, all comes to zero. -.-" Supposed to be like dat?

Anyway its a killer, I did the 6 questions required, after stoning for like 20 min flipping the paper over n over, applying all the MR=MC rule which doesnt really work out, but I din complete all parts. Very tricky. N my lecturer's important parts all nvr come out. The language is super chim. Y Zone A's past yr paper looks so direct and Zone B one so complicated!??!??!

Its an either u noe it or u dun paper. N I dun. I'll be happy with 34 marks again. Serious. Jus 34. Very happy.

I conclude I'm not good in maths. N those + - x / signs doesnt treat me as their good fren.

*prays hard hard*
