20th September 2008

:)


PS: Juz a reminder of this date

I have nothing to talk about

hey guess wad... i hav nothing special in my life right now... hahaha
lets talk bout my incidents with cluster gate!!!

1st incident: Locked out of my own cluster
The story goes like this.....
It was late at night n cindy requested me to pass her smt that i dun remember now....
well she was on the 6th storey while i was on the 5th...i think....
as usual we delivered our stuff thru the staircase.... so.... she was already waiting for me behind the door of my staircase....
i happily walked out of my room... without my key, without hp, without locking....
then.... i walked out of my cluster n alas, i cant catch the closing door...
i was shocked but i still passed the stuff to cindy ...
then... i started to think how to go back in...
thanx goodness some kind soul heard my cries n opened the door for me...

2nd accident: No battery
obviously, from the tittle ... my key had no more power... n cant open my cluster... during that time... i got to wait outside my cluster gate for about 5 mins each time i wanted to enter... until i realised that it was the batt fault.... n i got it changed... then things got back to normal..

3rd accident: Lost my key in the cab
Somewhen in last semester, i dropped my key in the cab.... of coz... i hav no idea that it was where i lost it... cuase i searched for it everywhere... n i finally called taxi comfort main office for help... they did locate the driver..... he thought it was some toy that he was going to throw into the dustbin.... he was partially nice n sarcastic.... well he was nice enuf to make the trip to pgp to return my key but he was sarcastically unwilling to at first.... i did give him some tip for saving me from being locked out of my cluster.....

4th accident: most dumb n recent
I juz changed from type a to b this semester.... well i used to stay on the 5th floor @ block 6... on usual basis... once i stepped out of the lift, i would turn left then left again to go into my cluster... this semester i need to turn left n RIGHT.... as u can guess.... i turn to the wrong side.... if that is not embarrassing enuf, i was actually trying to open the gate with my key.... for 2 mins i was cursing that my key was out of batt.... then i realised....oooopppsssss.... lucky there was no one there to watch my embarrassment.... :)

thats all.... i m bored.... one cluster gate tells many stories!!

I m Officially an Aunt

She comes as a surprise...
2 weeks premature....
but everyone loves a surprise gift... don't u?
I wasn't able to listen in class....
i got the frequent stare from my prof ....
i dun care... i was juz too excited for my niece....
time comes n i fly to the hospital...
She is so adorable....
Red-faced .....
Super circular head.....
I think if i wan to find a radius for it ... i can...(pardon my maths genes)
2.95 kg..... much lighter than me n my sis then....
i love her mouth... hav no idea why ...
maybe she has that line across her lower lip like mine n my sis... :) family trait is hard to rid off
she cries n sleeps.... she cries again n she sleeps again...
what a wonder-baby....
Danielle ... muach muach muach!!!!

Boo!

OH HAPPY DAY!!!

Ous slogan here: S/u!!! Pass can Liao....

hahahha super singlish.....

ps: *Ismy bored while reading her STAT331 notes*

I go here, I go there, I go EVERyWHERE.

I know it has been super duper long since i last post an entry... Sorry... It was partly of my heavy school work, partly because of the many trips i went for the past weeks and partly because of my laziness... hahhaa... :P It seems to get more difficult to just sit down in front of my laptop just to upload photos and write words and words like now... oooopppsss... I can predict that my blog future is very bleak...

For the past weeks, i have been continuosly bombarded with lots and lots of assignments and mid terms... Not that it is over... I still have 3 assignments and a project to do before my finals. Just yesterday, my friends and I rushed out a 36-page long assignment!!! it is crazy on how much work they actually give to the students.

4 more weeks to go... AND *drumroll* I AM BROKE.... hahhaha... not really totally without $$ but i dun really wan to spend it... call me kiam siap or wadever... i juz dun wan to spend more.... SO i am determined to cook most of my meals for the last 4 weeks....Plus, i have a problem here... i dunno if my stuff can fit my currently *broken* luggage!!! headache !!!!

Talking bout acad stuff reminds me of CORS aka bidding for mods... i still dunno if i should take a level 4000 mod.... cause i m thingking of graduating in 3 yrs. I start to feel less interested to take honours. My worry is just that i dun really have internship experience if i grad in 3 yrs... THATS ANOTHER BIG PROBLEM OF MY LIFE!!!

I heard a super duper surprising n sweet news today!!! well... i cant really say what it is... but CONGRATS to *******.... I am happy for u!! :) I am gonna bug u for more info once i return!!!

Another update is weiling and sam have left for their respective *place*. SAM to France and Weiling to Shanghai... so sad that i wun see them for the year ahead... well i wish them the best over there :)

I mentioned that i have lots of trips recently.... First place is NIAGARA FALLS. Then i went to vancouver for 6 days and MOntreal for another 3 days. It was indeed an extremely draining experience...The stroy goes like this......................................

NIAGARA FALLS

2 buses from CLV South head for Niagara falls on ....*dun remember*....Once we reach there, we are free to do whatever we want and come back to the exact location by 5. Of course, obviously, undeniably, we wanted to see the falls. There are 2 choices; take the maids aka ship or walk behind the falls. We decided to take the maids. Photos are below!!! The falls look fabulous from afar... with the horse shoe shape falls all that.... but nearing the falls is another awesome sight. The shades of colour of the water from green to white is really fantastic. We got slightly wet even though we are wearing raincoats. But it was an experience not to be missed !!! After the falls, we went to tour the shopping area. There are some entertainment plcs. We just stroll lazily along the street before proceeding back to the bus.

VANCOUVER & VANCOUVER ISLAND


This will be a long trip...6 days 5 nights....In comparison to the New York group, it is really long....and tiring as well... I was partially half conscious by the 5th day....

First day:
We reached the airport in the afternoon. We decided to take a cab down to the ferry terminal and proceed to the vancouver island. We are going to stay there for the next 3 days 2 nights. The taxi driver!!! He is IRRITATING. He keeps on talking unnecesarry stuff... He even sneered at us Chinese... We feel like just strangling him but lucky he is still useful to us. Just because he is INDIAN.... he doesnt understand other race but it is stupid to criticise ... DUMBO!!!

Anyway, the ferry we took was coolz.... the upper level are for those like us aka no car. The lower level actually can fit in buses and cars. I looked at the vehicles loading the ferry... It is so convenient!!! The ferry was really nice.... comfortable to *nua* (we refer this as slacking) ....It took us another hour to reach the island. On the way, we really saw lots of isolated houses within thick vegetation. It was nice.... We took an hour bus journey to our hotel. The hotel is really small but the service was really great. They really help us lots. We took a quick rest and went out for dinner. Since we cant go anywhere already, we rested for the rest of the night.

Second day:
We woke up really early for breakfast (not appetizing with just breads and .........more breads). Then, sweetly, the staff there offered to help us make a booking for whale watching the next morning. Whale watching was wad we really wanted to do when we were in the island. Really looked forward for it :).

That being settled, we proceed to walk down to downtown. On the way, we see lots of nice things. We walked past Chinatown and spotted more chinese!!! hahhaha and i found a Mahjong set but it costs a BOMB... though we miss playing it... dun really wan to spend the $$ on it though... we can 忍..... skipping forward, we went to the miniature world. We got lucky as they charge us youth price when all of us are over 21 already ... hahhahah..... Miniature world is really cute... The world is really small inside... but i am amazed at how detailed the figurines are. My best favourite work is the classic fantasy world... with snow white all that....

After the mineature world, we take a quick lunch and go all the way up the island to Butchard garden. This is the best Garden i have been. The flowers are really BIG and beautiful. There are lots of new flowers that i saw. I have lots of nice photos at this plc. These pictures seemed like those on calendar... They look fake but they are real !!! I cant decribe the scenery.... photos will say it all... :) After Butchard garden, we went back to the shopping centre near our hotel and *nua* at the starbuck to end the day!!!

Third Day:
As mentioned, we went for WHALE WATCHING!!! we got a bit lost looking for the plc though.... hehhe.... but juz on time to reach the office. It cost 100 bucks !!!! We got dressed in super ugly orange thick life jacket!!! When we move together, we look like a herd of penguins.... unable to move our limbs.... hahahhaha.... Then we board the zodiac which is this short little life boat that can fit 12 ppl only..... I CANT SWIM!!! of coz i am slightly scared. :( then the RIDE!!!! WAH!!!! WAH WAH WAH WAH..... Heart attack at the beginning.... The ride wasnt smooth.... well it wsant to be... but i still got a shock..... Bumps all the way.... and the wind!!! piercing to the eyes... We were lucky that we got shades that day!!! if not... i cant believe how we are going to open our eyes then.....

Then comes the best part.... we saw humpback whale!! it was a young one.... we cant really get withing 100 m near it.... so from afar we can randomly see him splurting water.... flipping.... It was cute.... but kind of sad that they spotted only one that day but there was supposed to be killer whales too but they were far beyond the boundary they can go.... sad cant see it.... We got to see other animals too ... like seals (lots of them), eagle and it's nest, fliiper which make really weird noises..... like snoring sound.... It was really big surprisingly ... and lazy... juz *nua*ing in a corner...... That basically too us the whole afternoon....

Then we went to collect our luggage from the hotel and proceed to the ferry and head to Vancouver main island..... Once we reach, we checked into our hotel and got us a Japanese dinner to end the day :)....The area where we stay was kind of a bit scary...ooppppsss

Fourth, Fifth and Last day:
Sorry.... i really forget the sequence from here... i was too tired so i cant register much things in my brain.....I will just mentioned what i can remember...

Grouse Mountain!!! We took an extra large cable car up to the mountain....Upon reaching, we walked around to see lots of outdoor shows.... There are flying fox and parachuting too. There are snow!!!They have not totally melted due to the height and summer was just beginning..... we saw a mountain bear too!!! sleeping.... hahahha... It was really tiring to walk the uneven roads.... but well it was an experience.....

UBC... I visited Carrine uni!!! hahhaha... It was really nice... better that UW act.... no wonder indonz like to stay there.... hehehe....

Downtown... honestly, the downtown was much better than the one in toronto... there more shops and lots of chinese seriously.... They dress better too... :) I remembered we ate at Guu(Jap restaurant) recommended by many frens.... nice but not the best Jap food i have eaten....

On the last day, we just wake up early to catch the morning flight back to Toronto and waterloo and school work!!

Oh i remember another plc... Stanley Park.... gd for cycling... we practicallly juz *nua* there... hahahhaha... It was freaking big though.... didnt manage to finish the walk....too tired....

Montreal

We took an 8-hour long bus journey to get to montreal for their Jazz festival!!!! We reached at night and go straight to the festival.... It was really like a huge music festival with many stages with different people sharing their music.... Not all music are jazz though.... there are very few asians there.... weirdly.... sometimes i feel that we got the stare from those ang mohs... hahhaha.... We stopped randomly at few stages and enjoyed the music... Overall.... we juz enjoy the festival mood.....

Since we were at montreal.... i forgot to mention that we stay at this really nice residence of mcgill uni..... nice plc..... Back..... we decided to travel abit too.... we went to the bio dome..... we feel home there... there is this part where u got to experience reainforest!!! hello.... hot and humid... where else SINGAPORE!!! hahahha.... then we got to different types of vegetation... saw lots of new animals... my best ones.... Penguins!!! first time i saw them up close.... they are cute really..... they can juz stand and sleep with different poses.... hahhahaha.... and they will wag their short tail before shitting.... hahahhaha....They are really an adorable community.....

Then we went up the "cable car" dunno... cant remember the name... to see montreall from up above.... Lastly, we made a visit to the Notre Dame church.... Seriously, it doesnt look appealing from outside.... just a normal church.... when u enter!!! MY MY MY..... It was really BEAUTIFUl.... The detailed structure was amazing... we cant really take photos during the day ....so we took the programme at night... where they will bring us thru the church's history... and explained each structure... then we can take a pic of it.... The photos are not as nice as what i have seen... I think the real thing was 3 times much more majestic than that... or should i say 'inspiring' as what the person said....

we made another trip to the festival on the last day before going back to waterloo...:)

Notre Dame!!!

PS: i will upload more photos on fcbk asap....:)

Now,...I believe it when u say.....

First thing first, patrick!!! i agree... i m juz plain lazy.... now i believe it when u say i will let my blog rot... ahahahaha i dunno why but i juz cant make myself blog... hehhehe... even now i m actually lazy.... so dun expect me to write long blog ppl... :P.... u can call me 'lazymy' if u wan ... i dun care.....

Anyway.... for these past lllllooooooooooonnnnnnggggggg weeks. ehem..... i dun really go to many places. As i have told you the academic commitment here is rather high . let me see, hmmm wad about i hav minimum 5 assignments or midterms every forthnightly??? I noe that these modules are supposed to be S/U... but u dun expect me to juz hand in crappy paper rite....I m also starting to get lazy to attend morning classes... i mean it was really exciting in the first weeks to attend... it is new experience , fresh .. wadeva u call it... now the NUS mindset settles back... hehehe... but i still attend my lectures mind u... except corporate finance which is quite boring n useless ....cause i studied the modules in NUS last sem so it is juz repetition of wad i have learned.

Oh yeah, result !!! that is another misery !!! it wasnt wad i expected!!! :( I declare that i am just so IN THE WRONG MAJOR n IN THE WRONG YEAR...... i believe i m not stupid but i juz dunno y that i cant score in exams..... n apparantly my other counterparts are juz smarter n more perfect than i am... so i decided y bother to struggle... juz do my best as long as i noe i m capable enough*wink*

Talking bout results makes me MAD!!! let's talk bout my trip to Toronto!!! we took a 2-hour bus trip "greyhound" to downtown Toronto on 23/5 evening ..... There are 6 of us: mich, lim hui, chingi, uncle, pei en, me. We went for only a day n came back on 24/5 nite.... Anyway Toronto is totally the opposite of Waterloo....It is very much alike Singapore... City... High-rise buildings...crowds... We took the subway from one plc to another. Surprisingly it was rather convenient .... but i muz say the nite life there is a bit scary.... those 'night walkers' will appear.... i dunno if i should say this in case my sis got worried... hahhaa... anw there are these 3 guys who juz came up to us n shouted or rather mumbled dunno wad .... luckily we were quite a big group so we juz ignored them n walked away.... n since then i m convinced not to go out late at nite in foreign city... HOWEVER!! i muz point out that waterloo is different ... it is juz a town n much much safer than Toronto.... ok... in Toronto we stayed at Sheraton Centre.... We went to 3 different plcs : Casa Loma, CN tower n Eaton Centre.

Casa Loma is this castle of Sir Henry. If u compare it to the word castle then i say it is small but if u compare it to the word house, it is really HUGE.... Each rooms has their own specific functions. I mean they even have a servings room for servants to look out for food servings time when their masters are having dinner( if u noe wad i mean). The furnitures are definitely of the finest quality. The garden they have is really beautiful. I think they hav really nice n big flowers around in CANADA.... at least there are colours in the GREEN city... heheh...we went up all the way to the top of the tower thru many many many stairs which are puny n smelly... but it was worth it... plus it wasnt as bad as climbing the great wall of CHina... hehehe.... Sadly, Sir Henry didnt manage to build his swimming pool.... From the picture, it was supposed to be graced with gold-plated figurines at the pool sides.... well... too bad.... That was my first time visiting a castle... looking forward for another... My fav was actually the piano... nice... pic below...:)

Then we went to visit CN tower thru this long underground... oh my my... i think my feet hurt cause of the walking on that day... We decided not to go up the tower ..... the scenery will be more or less similar as wad i heard from my fren... so yeah.....then we went to shop at Eaton centre... supposedly the largest shooping centre in Toronto.... n that was the day i had my first Japanese food after so long... hehhe... loving it.... :) thats all lar... i m tired....

The next weekend 31/5 i think, we went to Toronto Science Centre.... It is really big !!! big of spaces.... -_-... u have to walk lots from one plc to another.... the exhibiton there has more variety than that in Spore..... During the trip, we were like adults travelling back to childhood years... hahahhaha but it was fun..... dun really noe wad else to say bout that plc... i mean Sci Centre.... u noe... u noe....

kids---- power rangers

seriously... it tastes like cough medicine (no wonder DR pepper)

Anyway, in between, i attended small gatherings in my residence... like laundry party, BBQ , etc.... well it is free... n got food..... y not.....

I hav already planned on going Niagara falls next Saturday. 4 of us will be going to Vancouver on the 26/6 too while the other half are going NY... i cant go there since i dun hav the VISA..... :( Then on the 4/7 we are going to montreal for its Jazz festival... lots lots of fun coming!!! hehehhehe n probably my bro will be coming down for a visit...

PS: decided to learn how to cook next semester!!!
