i'm finally back in schoOl, after a wonderful 2 weeks break & like many others, i've been dreading it. had CRM lecture today..another unfulfilling, waste-of-my-time kinda lecture. met up with beng for luncH. he made me walk from blk 80 aLL the way to bukit timah market! *yiKes* one day, shall make him walk to SIM to have lunch with me :D *rubs hands in glee* revenge will be sWEet.


got my CRM test results. :( yupz..it wasn't good. didn't expect much out of itty bitty studying. got 36/50. and beng kept telling me bout his 90% marks for his test. idiot! played sqsh today, but had to leave early to meet sis for dinner at hyatt hotel. beng left with me tOo. he wasn't playing his best today..wonder why. hahhaa, muz be lack of sleep! well, i know i did suffer from it..another late night conversation tt ended at 4, leaving me still in the throes of energy. couldn't sleep till much later!


dinner at mezza9 was fantastic! & i was sOoo stuffed, i can juz puKe. hahhaa.. had vietnamese paper rolls for appetizer along w wonderfully tasty baguette + sauce. then for main course, i had: baby octopus, bbqed prawn, crayfish, salmon & scallop. *buRp* and i had raspberry smoothie. needa train doubly hard tmr to work it all off! but the ambience was nice. except tt the guy at the next table kept peering over to look at our food. jeez. and the total bill for both of us was...... $165! yeah..my sis..has classy taste. she was the one who picked the seafood grill! & she was initially intending to select sashimi platter for appetizer. *faints* but well..this meal was paid by my mom--she was really shocKed toO! haha, think she's gonna think twice before letting my sis & i go out for a meaL. :P


after tt, window shopped at tangs. my sis spotted a louis vutton bag for $89 tt she's planning to get. wat can i say? expensive, classy taste. & she can bloody well afford it now. soOoo..why not?



i don't seem to know what i want. *argh* i don't want to be so fickLe! it's a simple equation really..

did more stupid stuff today. seriously dumb. totally not worth mentioning! had squasH friendly w tpjc today, & the girls are chio & sweet :) J1 players, all amateurs, so bz, serene, ven & i had really ez matches. weren't fair for them. guy players on the other hand...not too bad! j2 & j1s. 2 really funny players..1 of them looks like huisze's younger bro! but he's pretty goOd. & the other is this guy called howard..aka Top Shit. *grin*


after tt,had lunch.well..oh, i didn't! lost my appetite. refer to 1st line: stupid stuff. yupz..
8 of us went to watch twins effects 2: Ryan, Weizhong, Leslie, Stephen, Mike, Hansel, Venasssa & me. dumb show. lame plot, no climax, bad effects, mediocre acting, esp jaycee chan. total waste of 8.50. & air-con left me freezing up. went to marche at suntec aft tt..all 8 of us including trina. we had a rosti feast! well..which is great, coz rosti is one of my fav foods.


discovered even more flaws along with my anti-socialness, inability to converse & wallflower attitude---rude & crude. yup..& too darn sensitive for my own good. how much lower can i go? dumb qtn, coz i really don't want to know!


life was goOd.

don't treat me too good, coz i'm scared.

wow, the fever's gone!fast..thank goodness for plenty of paracetamol, lotsa drinking water & squash.

didn't join hq & becs for lunch, which is a real blessing, coz i puked up my milk & honey stars :X but i overslept & was late for studying with beng! hahaha...& eventually..hardly did any studying. muz be coz he's too talkative & full of crap! hahaha..played squash, lOUSy squash. couldn't concentrate, coz i was getting hot flushes..& giddy at the ending of 1 set of game. good thing was, i didn't puke up dinner.*phew*


went swimming w 2 babes (hq & becs) today. suppose to be in np, but it was closed for cleaning.instead, we sneaked over to swim at signature park :P hahaha..it was great!having a wonderful time discussing bout stuff, splashing ard, trying to do some exercises in water, splits & crunches. oh, & mentioned to get some tanning in as well. *grin* but we had to rush back to sch & grab some lunch, coz they had consultations at 4. darn. bad ending to good fun!


played squasH after tt. had trouble moving my fat ass, & my digesting tummy. didn't do mucH playing today. played w celest,but my strokes have deproved aLot. lost to her 7-9, 9-4,6-9. *argH* but her strokes are definTeLy better.without a doubt. left early w the bunch of them, had dinner w mike. haha..another super crapper.


forgot tt there's squash match versus tpjc on sat, so had to cancel cycling w hq. *groan*

body's all screwed uP. can feel the onslaught of fever, and it sucks! i've got pretty much all the symptoms of it...name it, i have it: fLu, body aches, diahorrea, vomitting, & constant tummy pains. anything i missed oUt?


meeting huiqing & becs for lunch at cine later--sushi buffet. doubt i can eat anything! & frankly speaking, too giddy to even want to step out of the house. so am i still going? absoLutely! no doubt about it at all. haven't met up with them for ages. guess i'll have to drag my fat ass out of my house. SouL is willing, but the body is weak! how applicabLe.


gonna also meet up with beng later to study & play squasH. squash is another major pull factor, and i'll be going ahead with it as well. hope i don't get even sicker!


really hate it when i get so sensitive.

I have passed the test, and I am now deemed worthy to be known as a ... ... Warlock. In the war between good and evil, your Wizardly self is rotten with the stench of EVIL.I am gifted with the elemental plane of Air. Find out what kind of Wizard/Wizardess you are at WizardSoul.com
These nasty wizards are always evil, no matter what. All good hearted humans detest the Warlockfast and the smart ones avoid them also. They carry scepters and staves (mostly scepters). They are users of the darkest sort of magic. Always wishing for revenge and a curse to those areound them. The Warlock specializes in the creation of undying minions and the summoning of extraplanar allies. Above all, this wizard craves power over others, reveling in the thrill of commanding obedient servants. The mindless undead, as unthinking and ever-faithful automatons, make perfect and unquestioning slaves that will shoulder even the most loathsome burdens without hesitation. The Undead Master enjoys dominating the feeble will of the living, subverting the dead, and controlling the fiendishly powerful. Find out what kind of Wizard/Wizardess you are at WizardSoul.com


Your powers are highly attuned to the elemental plane of air. Storms and the powers of the winds come at your beck and call. Sometimes a magic user tuned to the elemental plane of air has the power to fly at will, and infuse his living body with the powers of his element. Often mages of air will build their strongholds or magical dwellings in high places such as mountain tops or flying citadels high above the earth where they can be close to their element. Some of the more powerfull spells in your arsenal include Lightning Bolt, Desert Twister, and Divine Wind. Find out what kind of Wizard/Wizardess you are at WizardSoul.com

it's been a great trip to hk! & now that i'm bacK..hahaha..time to chronicle my lil trip. basically, hk has lotsa 7'11s, Watsons,McDonald's, Mannings(exactly like Guardian. only logo is slightly diff), alot of boutiques & lotsa mango franchised dessert stores. the layout of the shops and buildings are really messy, & they've got numerous small little roads with dangerous back alleys. another thing is tt their MTR stations have got lotsa shops! Maxim cakes, Okashi Land(jap tidbits), Beard Papa, etc. hmm..oh, & their guys are definitely better looking than singaporean guys. seriouzly! muz be the climate or smthg. but hell, i wish i had a camera fone, to snap all their pictures to share w the girLs! aww..dang! missed my family & frenz..hahaha, yeah, missed u too, hangloon~~hope u had a fab 19th birthday *grin* nice to know tt they missed me too by their msgs on squash trainings, proj meetings, movie outings & help for tutorials. but overall, the trip was not too bad. here's a short daily summary:


SaturdAy
flight was good, but in my opinion, too short! reached the hotel in midafternoOn.didn't do mucH at tsim sha tsui(kinda like orchard rd?), juz hung ard & explore that area.had wanton noodLes for dinner.*yuMmy*~


Sunday
had a short day trip to hk island, and seen the jumbo restaurant on the sea + many glistening yatcHes. feast for the eyes. the jumbo ship is truly magnificent! *kowtows before stanley ho*--filthy rich guy who has underground dealings & a sharp biz mind. hk pple like to show off their wealth, by dressing up & driving ard in flashy cars. in fact, it's numero uno when it comes to highest no. of imported sports cars in asia! think multiple porshes, ferraris & lambourghinis tt i've seen. *wink* met siu bunn (sis & terrence's fren) for dinner. he brought us to the peak, took photos, and we walked ard the entire mountain. A-mAzing view tt few gets because they don't venture ard the darker roads. pity pity *grin*
saw this interesting tower, tt tells the time, thru the different colours on the 4 panels. but...requires skill, coz u gotta know which colour represents what no. !


Monday
visited shenzhen(part of china) dangerous place w crafty pickpockers. highly skilled. went to Window of the World (Shi jie zi chuang), whereby they replicate every impt feature of every country in the world. of coz, s'pore is denoted by a merlion. summer weather is terrible. bloody hot! but it was fun, yeah.


Tuesday
slept in, & woke up late. ocean park was bustling by the time we arrived. scorching sun as usuaL... saw lotsa stuff, highlight was the aquarium. amazing man! 3 levels of a single aquarium. it's really great! sat some rides..*boring* it wasn't fun...so disappointing. in fact, the ride in NP's funfair was even more thrilling than those there! but the other side was good. planning to burn the photos into a cd. if u wanna take a look, lemme know!


Wednesday
went to Tai Koo, but didn't buy anything. in fact, hardly bought anything. mood was dampened..shan't say anymore bout it. pissed me off aLot! met siu bunn for lunch, ate jap food.*yuMz* then..hung ard, went to visit terrence's old place, then met up w siu bunn again for dinner and more shopping at Mong Kok, while my sis went to meet her Resmed HK colleague, & terrence w his old pri sch fren-Yian yi. hanging out with Siu Bunn was great! :P he's got an enigmatic charisma, combined with his height & gd looks...well, let's juz say he commands some att'n everywhere he goes. anyhow, i had the best time out of the 3. exciting dinner manz. fight broke out in the diner! even the police came. will release more details on request. hahaha.. yupz. he also brought me to the shadier areas & even saw a prostitute haggling :P
eventfuL day manz.. slept super late. the Da Vinci code was too enticing...only gave in to my tired eyes at 5am. can't wait to get my hands on the unveiling of the da vinci code. lotsa interesting facts bout the Mona Lisa tt's so fabulous! truly amazing guy with sly gimmicKs to push his ideas.


Thursday
woke up late again, checked out, had lunch at The Spaghetti hse. walked thru this whole stretch of higher class shops & boutiques at Park Lane, & proceeded to Mong Kok for more shopping. but again..mood was dampened. what the hell manz... didn't buy anything, and then had to rush back to catch the coach to the airport. my sis & terrence had trouble w their tickets..so they had to catch a diff flight tmr. me? well..i came back on my own. :) was almost late for the flight! once i passed the passport checkpoint, i ran all the way from Gate 1 to my gate--31..even dropped my earring from all the running. luckily, i managed to retreive it. was breathless by the time i reached. thank god i made it! but anyway, they can't leave w/o me, coz my luggage is on the plane. & they're suppose to leave w/o the passenger coz who knows, they might stash bombs on the plane & stuff like tt. flight was gd, lesser turbulence than b4. and woOoo..haagen daz ice-cream! & my parents surprised me by picKing me up at the airport. Life is good!


well...ttz the end of my lil hk trip. can't wait to get my hands back on the squash racket, and my brain juices working. needa badly lose off my fats! did i gain weight? ABsoLuteLy. no one diets on a vacation!
