Just kill me...

I heard that taiwanese actress xu wei lun passed away in a car crash today... I really found it hard to accept... it's not exactly something you expect of an asian celebrity...

I am spastic! OMG!
PerCom was a blast as usual. Oh, the stupid things i choose to talk about.

and i am not cheena...

Poor mr yap... so little people at lecture today... mrs nah was there to observe the lesson or something... got called down to read the passages... stumbled a little on the first few words but overall it was fine... only me, lillian and regina in lecture today from T01... wouldn't be there myself if mr yap hadn't raised my assignment grade from a C+ to a B... roughly a C+ average for my assignments so far... all because i failed the macro assignment... blah...
Anyway... I had a furious inner conversation scribbled in my notebook (or my scribbles) in chinese during lecture... imagine going for just two hours at school then going home again... i just had to find some distraction... and i found that i really have to brush up on my chinese! i forgot how to write so many words... oh well, CMM is filled with people who converse mainly in english (it's so tempting to say ang moh kia)... it was inevitable that my chinese has been weakened by this... thank god i'm into taiwanese dramas and variety shows... I NEED A MUSE! NOW! IMMEDIATELY! STRAIGHT AWAY! i can't get past the first paragraph for my percom journals and it's due in two days! *FREAKING OUT*

I'm freaking pissed i can't breathe... i was pretty cheerful... funny how emotions can change in a few minutes over some trivial matters... really irritated now...how some people can be so ignorant to the things that are more IMPORTANT... and fussing over the things that are so obviously NOT... And seriously speaking some things that you do really affects others and its unfair to those who actually try to do right by you... urgh... especially if you live in the same house... my life doesn't revolve around you... you'll know the effects once you're on your own... people aren't always going to wait around to give you answers or accept crap... i've got my own stuff to do...

And i've got a pretty good idea of who reads my blog... don't ask me how, although it's pretty obvious... and it's not technorati... it's not accurate... and i actually keep track once in a while...

Still no progress on the assignments front... let's call them asses for short... i need a muse urgently...
I try not to use agressive words... but you can't exactly replace F*** off with like... Freak off... or shit off... can you? i don't think it's grammatically sound...

i didn't really want to post so many times in a day... but it seems that blogger can't take too much at a time... konking out all the time...

you know, i am in desperate need of inspiration for the following:
percom journals
journalism ica3

i don't know what to write... help...

Shall do a review today of this idol drama i'm hooked on to... called Hana Kimi... Tracy will be thrilled over this... she thinks practically everyone in the show is cute... Starring ella SHE, wu zun Fahreheit and jiro Fahrenheit... it's based on this manga Hanazakari no Kimitachi e (花ざかりの君たちへ) by Hisaya Nakajo. now i want to read it...

It's about this girl who was inspired by a high jumper, so much so that she transferred to a boy's school just to be with him... then becomes his closest friend... the high jumper guy finds out her secret and subsequently falls in love with her... but doesn't tell her that he knows...

Lots of comedy and sweet stuff in this show... ella and jiro's rubber faces are cute and comedic... i expect jiro's fans will swoon over his cuteness... the storyline is pretty unique... wu zun's acting is pretty polished, considering that this is only his second lead role... or third acting stint... the mandarin diction has definitely improved... (he should have attended cds lessons with me... the teacher made us practice za zhi for the longest time... it made me tongue tied after... ) People may dismiss this show as just another idol drama that attracts only fans of the stars but the supporting cast does a roaring job as well... yang hao wei as girly boy yangyang is really endearing and convincing in his role... he is just so cute and just bitchy enough... da shu is really cute too... he is a psychic that keeps seeing ghosts and scares his mates...One more notable duo is Hao jiao xiang qi... they are absolutely hilarious... the cast's chemistry works for the story and so far it seems like its taiwan ratings are among the highest...

4 stars!

DISCLAIMER
By the way... when i make angry/irritated posts directed at no one in particular... please please please do not think too much into it... If i'm not happy with someone, i will either keep it in or direct it at them so they know who they are...more often than not i am irritated by my sister bossing me around or the stupid internet (especially the internet, freaking server...) or some idiotic clip/show i just watched... I don't want anymore feedback thinking i'm insulting/scolding/angry at someone... this has happened too many times for comfort...

Shooting for ads was pretty fun... We used the digital SLR... so no film! Finally!

We did our own modelling, as usual...






















Charmaine as a wallet spokesperson...

Lillian as a watch spokesperson...



























Irresistable Ipod ad... starring me and tracy...





























Lillian the modern career woman for laptops (actually belongs to GimSiong)...


























Tracy the cool Ipod campaign kid!

































I'm the Pop Ipod campaign spokesperson...



















































Love this shot!








































Abit of explanation for this shot...
Conman Perry was the photographer for this and the classmates goaded anthony into doing the dumb couple shot... He's so stiff la... There i am looking so enthusiastic and he looks like an egyptian vampire mummy... Apple, if you're interested in this concept for valentine's day, leave me a tag... Although it's highly unlikely...

Anyway, blogger was so slow uploading the photos that i could even go downstairs for cheese waffles and watermelon milk with aloe vera! It even konked out on me! Urgh! Should i go for photography lecture tomorrow?

Cebu city in a Jeepney

Cebu city is the second most important metropolitan center in the Philippines, yet its mix of Spanish Roman Catholic and local pagan culture is still eminent in the lives of the locals. Walking around in the shopping malls of Cebu City is just the modern part. A ride in a local jeepney brings you all the more closer to a day in the life of a Cebuano.


Travelling in the local jeepney is a squeeze at 7am in the morning. It is full of people going to school, to work and to the market. The jeepney is the equivalent of Singapore’s buses, only that it is a small jeep and you pay the equivalent of 20cents for an unlimited ride along the route you’re taking. What’s more, you don’t have to pay if you’re sitting on someone’s lap, or hanging by the entrance. There are no designated stops either, the driver stops when someone raps on the roof or calls “lugarlang!” Along the route, there are little kids selling drinks, sweets, towels or little trinkets for tourists. Stalls line the roads, with everything from drinks stalls, barbers, stone masons to barbequed pork called lechon manok.




This my J2 tutorial activity... cool huh...

"i know you are nice and everything... it's just that you have this inconsiderate habit... it can't happen all the time... all it takes is a little effort... "

everyone has a little irritating habit that someone else may not be able to tolerate... but the key is whether any effort is made to realise and change it...

in other words... STOP MAKING EXCUSES!

SCREW IT!

sorry... i'm feeling emo again... the mumsie will be back from phils in about 4 hours...

These are the sports shots i took two weeks ago for my assignment...

















The one going to spin's my sister...















Be careful! You could break your arm!


























Han Boon and my sister... Chao da rou bao vs da rou bao





















Now this is a funny shot... horizontal... Hahaha...
























You pull me? No use! Kinda looked like a dance though!
































Hai YAK!

I'm so dead... came back from work yesterday and fell asleep...till 5am today!!! Without taking out my contacts some more! Aiyo... i think its accumulated tiredness or something... anyway i had a pretty good day bantering/quarrelling with eng hong, chatting with aunties and uncle zainal(see, i'm just about the only one who doesn't call you auntie or kak)... Love to the aunties who helped me with transition, tsk to firman who should have checked his schedule properly and thus wouldn't have been late (resulting in me having to take over cafe, and the aunties having to help me prepare most of the stuff for said transition...)...

I'm having this itchy wheezy cough... Urgh...
Here's what i have to do for school (in no particular order):

1. CDS chinese cover letter(half-done) and resume(done)
2. PerCom reflective journals (one-third done)
3. Prep for PerCom individual speech (NOT DONE!)
4. IWA proposal (NOT DONE! NO IDEAS!)
5. PerCom/MMPrin business plan (No progress!)
6. Photography advertisement (In progress)
7. PerCom group presentation (Not done)

There's still others... but these are of higher import...

My life is getting mundane and lacklustre... i need a new direction... Hit me!

haha... photog tutorial today... supposed to do a photo essay for a food & travel magazine but we totally missed the point... did a plain normal photo essay instead... whatever... the boss of jupiter cafe were real nice... so i'm going to feature them... people, when you visit temasek poly, go to jupiter ok! I looked really awful too... cuz i didn't bother dressing up and am sick... I sound nasal now...









Let's go to Jupiter to do our photo essay!










I'm feeling a little peckish... I'll order something...










Uncle, fries and iced lemon tea please!










Here comes auntie with the fries! Wow, uncle gave us extra!










Must have chilli sauce... yum...











Let's eat! (actually already halfway through!)











Anthony, help to finish!










Tried to take photo with the uncle... couldn't see him... lol










There he is! Thanks uncle!

Am sick... down with the cold... darn weather...
Anyway, i did this this temp job down at katong mall over the weekend manning a sand art corner... measly pay... and there's no job satisfaction... except working with the cute kids... a lot of caucasians though... if you ever go there... it's the place with the inflatable castles...
Weather has been really wet and irritating cuz i need to go out... fine, rain when i'm indoors, not outdoors and freezing!
Whatever, feeling emo today... going to catch some Zs...

So i went to reshoot my sports and night shots... came out better the last ones... they better get me at least a B... but photog is such a subjective subject (sounds weird... but whatever...)... you never know for sure... what may fulfil your whatever 7 fundamentals may not cut it for the lecturer...

Anyway... i had a horrible time getting to school today in formals... my pants were wet... am going to wear a skirt next time it rains... so were my feet... yuck! And it was cold la... thought i looked pretty good today... had a reading in class... mrs nah said that there was lack of expression in my voice... that's cuz i was seriously bored to death listening to the others... Here's what i observed:

One person tended to fade to a certain note/tone at the end of her sentences.
One tried to be full of expression but seemed like he was just competing for volume/trying to hard/missing the point of the passage he was reading.
Some slurred in an attempt to enunciate.
Some came across as trying too hard to enunciate.

Anyway, there's this disgusting habit that old men tend to have that i have observed on countless occasions... SPITTING!
Saw this old indian uncle spit in the bus! Oh my goodness! So disgusting!

Finally feeling better after paying the bills... all while daddy's still asleep... Wahahaha... see... i can do if i want to... felt even better after a cappucino from mccafe and two cheese waffles from prima deli... not happy but contented...



And happy birthday to my january darlings...

I'm really tired taking all the shit for other people... the sister thinks she's the boss of me or something... telling me to do this and that and expect me to pay for her stuff... just because mummy's in the phils... whatever... you think poly is a breeze? i may not look busy... but i struggle to get my assignments in on time... balance that with the freaks (of course not all) at work and the sister's friggin shitty attitude... you can't really expect me to be all smiley... I admit, i have a pretty uncontrollable temper and i tend to shoot off... but please, just because you don't hear me complaining about any crap doesn't mean i don't get as much crap... in fact i get more crap... i just choose not to bother anyone... unlike the sister, who thinks her problems are the end of the world... been there, done that... don't say it's because i'm smarter... it's because you're not willing to think... your mind's inflexible... and i'm supposed to leave you alone and take all the blame for what you've done? hell no...

i'm sorry i can't get all the things you want done daddy... but i'm really tired and pissed and frustrated over all these things, and you nagging and scolding is just irritating me more and nothing gets done... cuz i'll just be compelled to rebel and you'll just be tired... i know you're tired after work... so am i... a piece of advice to you: if you want things done your way, do it YOURSELF... you know i always do things my way, at my own pace... so do take note... and don't think you know me... cuz you don't... you may know certain things i choose to let on and my temper and all... but its all a mask... i really want to try to please you... but i'm breaking down too... i'm not a robot... i'm no super daughter... it's not like i want to forget things that you ask but i'm really breaking down... there's too much in my head that sometimes i feel like i'm going to faint... that's why i can't remember things too well anymore...

please forgive me...

I'm freaking pissed over photography today... got a bloody F for macro... got to do well for the final two assignments or i'm dead meat... don't expect much from the quiz either but... you know... going to show mr yap the shots i chose for my final individual assignments... he better say they're good... tutorial was shitty too... the bitch...
Was late to school today too... the weather's getting too comfortable... didn't bring my pencil case and ended up with a pen with no ink... couldn't take notes... forgot to bring daddy's money to pay bills and the idiot sister refused to help me do it... will do it tomorrow morning before photog lecture...

an ass of a day really... am going to sleep it off... pfuit...

Nov 22 to Dec 01 - Ash tree

Ash tree: (the Ambition) - uncommonly attractive, vivacious, impulsive, demanding, does not care for criticism, ambitious, intelligent, talented, likes to play with fate, can be egoistic, very reliable and trustworthy, faithful and prudent lover, sometimes brains rule over the heart, but takes partnership very seriously.

That last part is VERY true.


Brownies: You are adventurous, love new ideas, are a champion of underdogs and a slayer of dragons. When tempers flare up, you whip out your saber. You are always the oddball with a unique sense of humor and direction. You tend to be very loyal.

Legs crossed.
She is an outgoing and self-confident woman, usually talkative and at ease in others' company. Depending on the case, some people may find such a person highly likable while others may find her a bit annoying. Her merits tend to be honesty, directness and loyalty, and her weakness probably explosiveness and lack of tact. She likes what she likes, and will stand little of what disgusts her.

1. Saw a cat lapping up someone's vomit... so pitiful...

2. An ah lian girl arguing with the bus driver on the way to school today... so embarassing... the girl probably doesn't realise what a fool she's making of herself...

3. Did a photo essay for photog make up tutorial... of me being late for presentation...

4. My shoes hurt a lot...

5. Daydreamed in the bus on the way home and missed a stop... so i had to walk home in painful shoes...

6. Went for cds' new year party... which was pretty fun... added bonus: no lesson tomorrow!

7. Can sleep in tomorrow and catch up on much needed sleep...

Am not feeling too well... feel weak in the knees... don't know how i managed to get through work... haven't felt too good since i came back from phils... no one knows and thinks i'm just being lazy... even got screamed at and threatened at... that i don't have respect...but whatever... they just don't know... am not planning to tell them anyway... not like they're going to be sympathetic or understanding... who wants to be nice to someone who is bloody rude anyway... am not going to bother... i'll just mind my own business and do whatever i can...

get out of my hair!!!

Yushan, don't laugh when you see this, cuz i know you definitely know who i'm talking about...

why... why don't i attract the ones i like (or maybe i do but something's gone wrong down the communication line), instead i get a butch... who isn't even remotely attractive in ANY way??? Not even Boy George-ly or Elton John-ish or Ellen DeGeneres-y?

Multiple YUCK!
Look i have respect for such people... but no means no... and being all emotion-y and whatever isn't going to change that fact that i said no... when it comes to matters like these, i am decisive and mean what i say... i care enough to even speak to you again ok...

I wasn't really in a hurry to find a real boyfriend... but now i think i better pick up the pace... Recommendations are welcome... Tag to apply... lol...

You know, my horoscope has predicted some stuff that came true... and it was only the first day of the year... I was prepared in a way for weird stuff... but not this weird... Gosh, i feel like i'm going to hurl... Argh... Help!

I got a new tagboard for the new year...
it's pitifully empty now...
the old one might be back anytime though...

Here are some thing i hope i can accomplish within the coming year asap...

Lose 10kg...
Get a perm (my mum vehemently objects to this)
Try not to procrastinate
Keep my room clean
Save more money
Read more books


That's it...

Oh and i think that Julian Hee sucks at singing and dancing...
