try waking up at 7am making your way down to boon lay at 9am for project meeting then going down to ulupok tuas area at 11am for project interview and interviewing nonstop till 530pm with like half an hour break only then making your way to someone's house by 730pm and film an video for the project and then edit the video for the project by the time the whole nightmare was over, it was 1230am the next day and then you are suddenly wide awake because you have been going nonstop for more than 12 hours without even a proper wink of sleep but you know you have to get some sleep because you cannot waste the day away and waking up at 9am to find that you are not feeling tired

i had my remaining share of rest and fun before the recess week finally starts i rided on hindsight that recess week is going to be filled with projects, project AND MORE PROJECTS and turns out that i am right
met up with shuting at vivocity on friday! the highlight of the night was when shuting said "i want to get a tattoo on my lower back because when i am old and the tattoo is ugly, i cannnot see it" GOODNESS ME. i laughed like there was no tmr
my pose is inspired by dbsk's new mv. i am serious of course this is not inspired, this is pure unglamness
saturday night i went to lou's house to do IT project TORTUROUS and the highlight of the night was the power trip can you imagine we were drawing the disgusting IT flowchart halfway and the power trip so the laptop went blank i was completely stunned that i went wtf luckily we saved our work so the re-drawing part wasnt that much my goodness me, really a lesson learnt to ALWAYS SAVE YOUR WORK we slept at 3am and we didnt complete drawing the flowchart super tired lou's mum gave me a lift home on sunday morning i reached home, had breakfast and went for a swim i am amazed i can still think of exercising when i am tired the afternoon was filled with more flowcharts finally finished drawing at night and i was really positively ditzy alr my reward was of course dbsk's showcase
my boys are hot. PERIOD changmin is getting so tall. haha cannnot wait to see more of their performances in korea and of course listen to all the songs of the new album and to lay my hands on their album

i am really perturbed and pertrified of the fact that recess week is just next week how can 7 weeks of school just fly past so silently i am really horrified of the things upcoming from the start of recess week till the end of this sem
anw, blog abt what happened so far since the last entry
1) 201 test no other word to describe but FUGLY i managed to balance the thing this time but it was done forcefully so ya, i guess there are errors here and there managed to write at the speed of light which my hand almost died after notes to accounts but hopefully the results wont turn out too bad
2) AB228A last lesson of career foundations! wooohooo. now i officially have 4 day work week. wheeeees loved my teacher he is super funny and he talks in the same kind of language as me like how rare is that!
3) 1st IT interview was completely horrible, i am too lazy to blog and let the memories flood back and torture me once again but i am really starting to realize how horrible the IT project is and WILL BE well, i think our group progress is decent and how all things turn out DECENT
4) early birthday celebration with my 2 sec sch besties at chinatown
i was like unusually high when i saw that the streets of chinatown was closed due to the mooncake festival couldn't resist the urge to take photos because the streets of chinatown are ususally bustling with heavy traffic and we did some shopping at chinatown and i must say that there are good stuff there!
5) TWEN-TEEN birthday i feel old but rest assure i know i am forever young in my heart! thanks to all who has wished me thru sms/msn/fb and those who made the effort to give me presents!!
joy was asking me whether i will throw a korean theme 21st birthday party next year and i was stunned by the idea because i have never thought of it before something to consider for next year. hahaha
upcoming in the recess week till before exams
1) IT Project 2) 202 Mid Term Quiz 3) 202 Board Meeting 4) 201 Term Project - they just released the instructions a few days ago, out to kill us lor 5) IT Quiz 6) IT Excel Quiz 7) 214 Group Presentation
and of course on top of that the endless readings that may just strangle me to death 201 readings are really no joke! my goodness me i just wish to stay sane in face of all the work ahead!
on a lighter tone, the triangle album that i ordered has arrived am looking forward to the 4th korean album, which the cover was released today!
OHMYGOSH. i really like the design of the cover and the colours from afar but when i did take a closer look why is junsu slapping changmin's head! @*$&*&*($)(#*()#*% ohwell. nonetheless, i am excited about their songs, mvs and all!
i am super looking forward to SM Town BKK! i will be super busy spying here and there!
anw this blog MAY be abandoned for some time seriously too much is happening i am realllly lazy to recount
ok, till the next post!

many horrible and nightmarish incidents this week
1) was supposed to book tickets to bangkok last sunday night. so me and joy were happily discussing online. so joy told me jetstar promotion is ending that night and she asked whether we want to wait until monday to see whether there is new promotion so being naive and ignorant, we both agreed that we should wait and take a gamble for new promotion so monday when i was on my way to school, i saw joy's sms that jetstar DID NOT HAVE A NEW PROMOTION rather, the price increased what a nice horror for the start of the week our airfare increased by like $29 for each person my conclusion is, airfares increases as the date draws near so next time you are in the same situation as me DO NOT TAKE THE GAMBLE, just buy the ticket
2) tuesday was a horrible trip to school i'm sure many university students, esp NTU students have heard of the incredibly long bus 179 queue to school well, having to travel this sem, i can see that the bus 179 queue is always long i was really wrong abt my perception of LONG until i experienced what i did on tuesday i left my house at 845am for my 1030 class normally it takes 1 and 1/2 hrs to travel to school from my house i reached boonlay mrt at 955am and the sight i saw was really PHENOMENAL i saw students queuing alr when i walked down the steps of the mrt station but i refused the believe the queue was so long so i decided to walk infront ABIT to see whether it is really that situation AND OHMYTIANS, IT INDEEED WAS so i faster walk back and started queuing i joined the queue at the fruit stalls there la, and that's the place where you alight if you take the 179 bus from school to interchange MY GOOODNESS ME i was still telling myself, shld be okay la, i am early, will reach school in time WRONG AGAIN i stood at the spot for like 5-10mins and the queue didnt even BUDGE AN INCH and to make matters worse, the jurong point smell kept wafting in the air like how nice it was seriously it took me half and hour to board the bus YES SO I WAS LATE boarded the bus at 1030am can you believe it, thats the time where i am suppose to have my lesson it took forever because there was no 179A and sbs decided to be a bitch by nt sending out 179s even if it did, it sent out a single deck like HAHA. SO CONSIDERATE OF YOU my conclusion for this is i will never arrange a 1030 class to be my first class. i went school at 1030 that day because i didnt have my 830 morning class
3) i mistook the wrong question for presentation HOW NICE RIGHT so over the weekend i HAPPILY chionged through all the readings for IT to do my presentation qn somemore my presentation qn was like DIFFICULT it killed alot of my brain cells while trying to do it IN THE END, on tuesday when we met up to compile my group realised we did the wrong question ok, partly my fault since i kept insisiting we are doing that question i guess i was punished for my efforts and ironically or however you want to see it, the real question we had to present was actually much easier we managed to settle it on tuesday afternoon, just in time for wednesday presentation
4) wednesday's IT lesson was suppose to end at 630pm but the teacher released us early at 545pm so me and lou was so excited we wanted to chiong home so we can go home early for dinner when we came out from the classroom, it was raining but that DIDN'T really dampen our spirits yet because i had an umbrella so we walked to the bus stop and that was where the real horror begins WHY? because the bus stop was exploding we couldnt even squeeze into the shelter of the bus stop so we were left standing outside the bus stop with my tiny umbrella being shared by the 2 of us and with mr rain deciding to pour even more heavily within minutes, our shoes became swimming pools and our clothes started to get soaked to make the matters even worse as if its not enough, bus 179s that came were all PACKED to the brim and none of them stopped only NTU students will understand this. during peak hours, bus 179 would be packed like siao at the canteen A bus stop norm it wont stop at the innovation bus stop which was where me and lou were at that day so we deicded maybe we shld flag a cab to end our agonies BUT, ALL THE CABS WERE EITHER HIRED OR ON CALL GOSH and luckily we were smart enough we decided to take the shuttle bus that came to hall 1 cos hall 1 is the first stop of 179, sure can board the bus so we alighted at hall 1 and a few seconds after alighting, we were given a welcome by this amazing waterfall created by this car zooming past the busstop it splashed all over my bottoms la! @#*%$*^#&#(*#% so we decided to stand behind the seats at the bus stop so the water wont splash onto us even when cars zoom by the reason why the water was splashing because at hall 1, there was some mini flood so its inevitable that cars will make water splash so the next car came and i was ABOUT to gloat over the fact that we wont get wet and that was when the car zoomed past and THIS TIME, the water splashed onto my top, a little bit splashed on my face HOW GREAT IS THIS there were also other people at the bus stop den they said "OPEN UMBRELLA!" haha, so we opened our umbrella the next time a car zoomed past finally 179 came and it was quite crowded but we managed to find ourselves seats we have never been so thankful for a seat on a bus before
by the time we got to the interchange, it was 1 hour later meaning 645pm, considering we were being let off at 545pm if it didnt rain, we would also have reached the interchange at 645pm and we were in a very cui state because almost 80% of our clothes are wet our shoes are COMPLETELY WET and filled partially with water we were super cold and hungry so we deicded to get some food first before we board the train we saw food stalls at the interchange so we got our food and lou is damn funny pls, she buy her pau alr she told me "how i wish i can just hold the pau in my hands and not eat it" TRYING TO BE FUNNY LA seriously. haha so we gobbled our food and boared the train we managed to find seats also when we sat down, lou said "i'm thankful that the previous person that sat on this seat has a warm butt" upon hearing, i think i laugh until my stomachpain la seriously
ok, so i guess you are curious what time i reached home 745pm, took a full 2 hours and at paya lebar it rained also but i cannnot be bothered since i was just one step away from being completely wet you know at times like this, i wish that how nice it would be if i had a car and i have my driving license so i can drive home in peace or there was someone nice enough that offered me a lift home but ya, its a horrible incident i feel the thrills just recounting this here
ok, so thats all the horrible incidents that happened of course there are the happy sides
1) friday i went to orchard for some shopping i finally got that y-mail wallet from ysl, birthday present from my mum :D my mum is reallly nice i got a black headaitch from crumpler because my red topshop bag broke on monday i was so sad so i decided i need a SUPER DURABLE BAG for school
2) got my july work pay too on friday comission for the 3 months would be $100+ but its not payable to me yet and rena was nice to give me a lift from tiong bahru to kallang so that i saved time travelling on the train and i could get home faster
3) overloads of youtube videos from suju and shinee that made me happy
SUJU Happy & SHINee perform miracle together!
loved this performance because it was the first time i heard minho sing and he has good vocals in my opinion and he was also super cute during the moments he had with eeteuk and eunhyuk. ALLL MY LOVES :D
Eunhyuk & Eeteuk reading english fan mail on SUKIRA
this video got me laughing nonstop. pls watch their english was incredibly funny i was amused to high heavens. hahaha
4)DBSK's 4th korean album to be released on 24th September! WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cannot wait and they also have a new jap single coming out EXCITING SEPTEMBER FOR ME! :D am deciding whether to pre-order the 4th album so as to get first press edition SHALL SEE HOW. :D
ok, a preview of what's up next week
1) tmr is 201 mid term test. in the previous post i mentioned the duration is 2 hours. nah i was wrong. only given 1 HOUR AND 40 MINS to complete a balance sheet, a statement of comprehensive income, a statement of changes in equity and notes to account my brain and hand MUST work at the speed of light
2) going down to the company for interview for IT project IT project is starting to reveal its true face i hope i can conquer it!
you know i am so numbed of school now that when i travel on the train to school and home, i no longer feel tired i have started to feel jaded of the endless readings that i am starting to STOP complaining about it and i no longer feel that i have to battle with the bed in the morning just to get up for school or to do my readings at least its a good sign i guess ahh, whatever
back to revision for 201 tmr

lucky me, i managed to survive the week despite being sick am almost fully recovered but i decided i need to or rather must stay and keep healthy till 21st Nov
202 presentation was SUPERB my teacher said if nothing goes wrong it would be an A+ grade :D teachers don't lie to you right, haha was super happy la and amazed at how well my team worked together despite the very first time working together i conclude as long as everyone puts in their effort for a project everything will go well hope we mainatin the same zest for our board meeting thingy!
am super lagging in my 201 because i forsaked it to do my 202 presentation i am really amazed by the amount of readings from 201 like FRS 1 has like freaking 78 pages and it's not some story book where you can read it leisurely and digest it well my goodness and the 201 mid-term will be another horror again i guess have to prepare adjusting journal entries, balance sheet, statement of comprehensive income, statement of retained earnings and notes to accounts in like 2 hours! not only must my brain work well, my hand must write at lightning speed! gosh, and i certainly don't welcome the fact of doing it in the lecture theatre because the tables are like so small i will feeel so confined by the space SIGH
IT readings is overwhelming, i just printed them and i was like rahhh but i think it will be okay to read them because i kind of enjoy IT this sem my next fave subj would be 202 but i think when we embark on the IT project, it would be totally another different story
4 weeks of school has just passed like that, seeeems duper fast and in like 3 weeks time recess week will come i can't help but think of the horros ahead time is travelling at the speed of light pls goodness me
ok la, school aside been infatuated with SHINee these days watched their reality show and i missed korea when they went to yongin everland and sat the t-express and all the lovely scenary secretly wishes i can just quit school and migrate to korea. haha eunhyukkie is still the same as always, my happy pill whenever and ever dbsk has been busying flying between japan and korea i am seriously worried for their health 4th korean album will be releasing soon am super happy they will release it in my birthday month i will be DELIRIOUSLY happy if the release date is my birthdate i will still be SUPER happy even if they release in sep cannnnnot wait loh, i am dying of anxiety actually it's been like almost 2 yrs since the 3rd korea album! sepaking of which SM Town Concert tickets is confirmed just that i dunnnoe where i will be sitting yet but its okay i will bring my binoculars cannnot wait seriously, will buy air tickets and book hotel soon :D
am super addicted to God Diva's dark chocolates now they are superb seriously cannnot wait to go to bkk again so i can get them at duty free price at the airport! will buy more this time! haha, very random
ok, shall go back to my endless pile of readings!

school hasn't been fun, like whats new but at least random and hilarious things happen and spice up my life
anw finally met up with the s46 girls after like zillion years or sth. it was good and we dined at the korean restaurant at fep! secretly wants to increase my korean vocabulary so that i can speak korean to the restaurant manager next time so as to get free flow of side dishes!
went to lou'c church drama play. was good watching the church members put up such a good drama considering the time limit and none of them are professional actors. was good also listening to the person preach, i felt more holy and peaceful
credit card fraud happened to me and all i can do was to curse at that person and wait for a new replacement card
met a die-hard boa fan in my class during the networking session. actually we are suppose to converse on the topic given by the instructor but dunnnoe what happen we ended up exposing our J&K pop madness. i was so proud and excited telling the boa fan that i went to dbsk's concert in thailand
fj: " yeah, i went to their concert, in thailand"
boa fan: "how come thailand?"
fj: " they held a concert there mah, so have u been to any of boa's concert?"
boa fan: "ya, in tokyo"
i felt totally thrashed and slapped. haha. to go japan/korea for concerts is like OMGOMGOMG ok i think its super random but i seriously found it amusing
the down part of this week, in addition to the fraud is that i have been sick TWICE. can you believe it. i was sick on tuesday and i had to endure through 2 positively disgusting seminars which i got a terrible headache after that. after school i even headed to ps in attempt to get some stuff that i need but guess what, couldnt find them at all. i went home with my head spinning and plunge into bed, luckily i recovered after a long 2hrs sleep and today i am sick again, at a larger magnitude den tuesday, flu and mild sore throat which i highly suspect is due to the random tantrums of mr. weather to be suddenly scorching hot and to suddenly rain cats and dogs and guess what i had to do, entertain guests that came to visit from abroad and compile my project presentation. i was like sneezing and blowing my nose while doing the ppt slides i alr ate medicine but i am still not feeling better! rah i need to recover at least by tmr! i got work to complete next week can! 2 major presentations and 1 minor one and on top of that, the endless readings!! sigh, seriously hate my body mechanism, it simply likes to shut down on me whenever i need it to stay strong!
alright, i shall go watch the olympics closing and probably rest early for the day i am so proud of Park Tae Hwan, the swimmer from korea. he's like amazing! (: hope he gets more gold medals next time!
i will do a proper update next time so sorry for this super random post
