SELLING SKiE CALENDARS
Today, I didn't have lessons at all but I am occupied with my special projects. I did calendar selling with Weishan, Shun Deng and Huiling. Spent about 2hrs and we managed to sell a total of 41! I'm real very happy about that... Got $259 and $44 is purely donation. And at 12pm, I was real tired and we still have about 6 calendars. I cannot stand it already and began to knock every room, and gave a short presentation, hoping they will buy. Ha... Quite fun. I have made some conclusions out of the selling of calendars.
1. Those MIC (Made in China) are really a bunch of snobs. They feel that they are very busy people and they stink! They offices are very messy and very smelly. Didnt switch on the aircon!! And most of them rejected the offer of buying... Somemore, we have given them the job in Singapore and they simply don't wanna help... So ungrateful.... (WoA!)
2. The Westerners (eg Ca...
The day pass so fast!!
Really loved Maroon 5!! They are so talented!! A brief history about them.
They heard on the radio of a rock song and the lead singer is very curious about how they write and produce it. To his amazement, he cannot believe that songs are so easy to be written plus some simple rock music. So there he is now, forming Maroon 5, mixing rock and jazz together. Amazing stuff man!
Today, did my nano revision and need to do up my project. Oh well.
Gave my presentation today at the English lesson today and once I stepped out, I actually forgotten the title of my speech. My mind went blank and everyone laughed. Oh well, then, I looked at the paper and there is the title! MISPLACED MODIFIERS! And I gave 2 examples and ended my speech. Got one of my friend told me that I sounded like a teacher. Oh well, I must keep my level of modesty! ;)
I slept straight after lunch because I was really very tired after the History tutorial. Next week is the fina...
Woa!! Yesterday is certainly a jam pack day for me and certainly, I feel that I have fully utitlised it... WHY!? I didn't study that much, merely attended one lecture and didn't do any revision. But I am very happy and not regretful for not revising. WHY?
Straight after my lecture, which is a complete waste of time, I went to Ghim Moh Secondary School and went for the Amazing Race conducted by Clementi Student Care Service (SCS). It's very fun as we are judges and follow with the Secondary Two Normal Tech Students. They are very quick in their thinking and I am sure that they love the game too. Below are some of the observations:
1. They are very smart people but they just do not like studying. Why? Because they do not put priority in their studies. And from today's outing, I feel that they are very close to one another as they are able to criticise one another. This is simply unlike my time. I was in Express stream and the people weren't that clos...
Hi all
I am beginning to feel that NUS, uni life, doesn't really prepare us for the working life at all. Especially with what I am doing today... WHY??
Coz i've attended my lectures, regarding inorganic chemistry, life science module. I know that these modules are critical for the CAP score in my uni life, but am I going to use it??! THe application part is totally zero.
Seriously, I find that Singapore's education system should be revamped! REVAMPED for good. I know that they want us to be knowledgeable, but think about this, acquiring too much knowledge will turn out to be useless if not used. Why not we learn the knowledge and practise them? This will make knowledge useful. However, the problem is that there IS NO ROOM FOR PRACTISING for the knowledge at all! That totally suck.
I have been talking to my friends and looking at the general outlook of the university students. Yes, they are very hardworking. Yes, they score near perfect scores. I would...
Singapore Idol
Utterly disappointed with Singapore IDOL! Kns!! Simply turns me off. The performers are really very skewed and Singapore Idol is not a competition about the quality.... it's the quantity of the votes.... THAT'S ALL! Leandra didn't perform her best that day and many of my friends felt it too... And you know what? She is in the top 3 positions. Can't believe it... -_-!! This reminds me of the Rhapsody Concert which I attended last month. It's simply popularity vote... I'm not going to watch Singapore Idol anymore... Woa!! I was simply so fired up, the engine in my head!! The Vitamin B really works!! I did 2 maths tutorial in one go! Ha... Till 2am... I am so happy today because I get to watch 'CELLULAR', a movie starring Kim Bahsinger. And it's about a kidnap story and the entire movie actually brought me to the edge of the seat! Very exciting and very original.... Feel that technology, the handphone, is an amazing tool and they reall...
Today, did alot of admin stuff for my projects, mainly Grant-A-Wish and Exam Tea. I have created flyers and they are quite small! Need to re-size again! Oh man...
Oh yes, I finally got back my Nanotest result. Got 58/100. The mean of the students got 60 plus loz... Never mind man, still got the next test to catch up! Yeah...
I did my Chem pract today and it's quite xiong... It's abt crystallization and my crystals attained are very small!! Ah!! I think for the next week's practical, I'll need to alter the results bah! ;)
Ok... ate my dinner and now at SK'ie meeting... BYE!

And the feeling that I feel for you is more then strong girl
Take it from me
If you give a little more ...
Today, I took a nap and was real tired eversince this morning's 8am english lesson. Took my test and got 10/20. Ha... Really thankful for my tutor and the whole class actually waited for me to finish the test because my tutor, Nina, cannot discuss the test while I'm taking it mah!
Watched Singapore Idol and there are quite a few good ones like Maia Lee, Slyvester Sim and Blinda Cho. AMazing performance they have got and really hope that make it to the finals!! They have their own unique personality and wow. And you are listening to a person who seldom watch Singapore idol! ;) Tml awaiting for the results.
Am revising my maths today. ;)
Can't believe that I asked 4 people for dinner and 3 of them can't make it. The other one, Shaun, didnt even reply my sms! Then, unexpectedly, I met Mujahid and we ate together. Ha... So heng ah?! ;) Oh well, had sweet sour chicken claypot rice for dinner... Not bad though.

It's way past October! Can't believe it!
Anyway, I'm real excited with what I am doing currently and I am actually trying to be positive as possible in my thinking! ;)
Well, I have come to realise that next week, there are 3 tests for me. They are
1. English Mock Exam
2. Maths Mock Exam
3. Life science online test
Woa!! Seriously there are alot of things to prepare for it and I must really work towards them! I am also currently in the midst of preparing exam tea for Community Service Club. Exam tea is providing free snacks, drinks so that studying in NUS before and during the study week will be much comfortable. :)
Really feel that I have became much fairer and I really do not have the time to go to Sentosa for sun-tanning. Probably after I come back from India. Coz I feel that I don't look healthy if I carry on to be fairer and fairer!
Oh yes, I am currently taking Vitamin B pills and certainly feels that they make me energetic and can...
Worse!
Today, I woke up late for my english lesson and I was supposed to have a test also!! I quickly smsed my tutor and telling her that i'm sick!! Ha!! And she is able to arrange this thursday for me to do the test!
Then, I met alot of my english tutormates and from them, I'm the only one who didn't attend today's lesson! Oh man!! So paiseh and worse is that they saw me with the badminton rackets!! Ha!! Oh well, but i've told them that I overslept!
Played badminton with Zhiwei, Angel and her gang. Not bad and it's really been awhile eversince I have played this game!! Had fun sweating it all out and enjoy lo... ;)
Today, went to get the toothpaste (Glister) and the mouth spray. I also ate Vitamin B pills for energy. Really feel good after eating!! :@) That motivated me to brush my teeth. I can feel my teeth whiter!! Yeah!! Feel good about the new product!! ;)
You know what?? My tap is still not repaired!! Argh!! The administration really suck...
I'm FIRED UP !!
WOOHOO!
Not feeling angry but I can't wait to do something which I have never done before!! EXCITED MAN! Anyway, I'm going to try out new products for myself!!
These are the products:
1. Glister ( a toothpaste)
2. Bio-C (A vitamin C pill, gd for skin and eyes)
3. Vitamin B (Gd for energy and concentration)
4. Glister mouth spray (freshens your breath!!)
Yeah!! Will tell u guys about the effects after I use them!!
Anyway, I have went out with Jianbang and Ray yesterday and tried out 3 different types of pizza at the Pizzaplace (Raffles City).
The flavours are:
1. 3-cheese Pizza (YUMMY)
2. Beef Pizza (DELICIOUS)
3. Seafood Pizza (DRIVE ME NUTS!!!!!!!)
I wasn't full after it, probably they are too delicious that I can't have enough of it. But I didn't tell them that la. So if you guys are free, go and try lo. Each person around $10, including drinks. So not bad!!!!!

My Prerogative (Britney Spears) [Spoken:] People can take everything away from you But they can never take away your truth But the question is.. Can you handle mine? They say I'm crazy I really don't care That's my prerogative They say I'm nasty But I don't give a damn Getting boys is how I live Some ask me questions Why am I so real? But they don't undersand me I really don't know the deal about my sister Trying hard to make it right Not long ago Before I won this fight [Chorus:] Everybody's talking all this stuff about me Why don't they just let me live?

NUS
Today, it's quite tiring for me... Did my english test, and all of us require a re-test as most of us got a single digit number... Oh manz... For maths, today, I did alot of questions. Can't believe it. And I do until I wanna faint. Alot dunno how to do... gotta revise on maths already! Gan Jiong liao. Well, Weiming smsed me asking me to quickly hand up my Abalone project to Alvin by Saturday. Actually, I know about this coming by and it's quite strange as in Alvin dun wanna msg me directly. Oh well. After I shifted the planks to the Community Service Clubroom, I went back to my PGP and worked on my Abalone project.

It's been a long time eversince I have written this blog of mine...
Anyway, I have been rushing for a few things these days.
1. History essay
2. Chemistry Practical
3. Amazing Race
4. Maths Tutorial
Practically fully booked for these timings and I have forced myself not to log on to Msn that frequent already. Last time, I was really anti-MSN, and now, I'm trying to get this feeling back again. The simple addiction simply is vice to me!!
Oh yes, I have received the 'funny.exe' file from my friend and luckily, yesterday, I managed to find the website that has the antivirus for it. Ha!! Heng.
A group of friends and I are planning for Amazing race which is installed mainly for sec 1NT and 2NT as part of their excursion. All the places will be at Clementi and Buona Vista and went to recce today. There are alot of places which I am not sure about this part of the Singapore. And came to realise today that Holland V is actually very very near to Buo...
Today, I went to NTU. Somewhat feel that it's another airport in existence!! The place is very big and full of Halls. I went there because I need to promote JamX and get the rock band wannabes to sign up for the competition. We planned to find those who have the rock band look, but at the canteen, very few has the look! Ha... but managed to give a handful la.
We are quite lucky in the sense that we are able to get the cultural head of a Hall, who in turns has other contacts of the other cultural heads of the other Halls! Which means, the idea of JamX will be passed and spread! Hope it works!!
I met quite a few friends there in a short span of 3hours. Met Valerie, Parry, Huijuan, Ridzwan, Paul, John and Mingjian! Amazing ah! And it's like another place to spot your friends!
Really feel very tired after the keeping of the stuff! Ziping and I carried the heavy tables to the wrong building and wasted our energy. Upon returning the key, we also went to the wrong bui...
CHAINS (sung by Tina Arena)
Your arms are warm but they make me feel
As if they're made of cold, cold steel
A simple kiss like a turnin' key
A little click and the lock's on me
Can't move my arms, can't lift my hands
I won't admit to where I am
But I know baby,
I'm in chains
I'm in chains
I pretend I can always leave
Free to go whenever I please
But then the sound of my desperate calls
Echo off these dungeon walls
I've crossed the line from mad to sane
A thousand times and back again
I love you baby,
I'm in chains
I'm in chains
I'm in chains
I'm in chains
Should have known passing through the gate
That once inside I could not escape
I never thought this could happen to me
Never thought this is where I'd be
But baby, baby, baby, look at me
Baby, baby, look at me,
I'm in chains
I'm in chains
I never thought this is where I'd be
Never thought this could ha...
I am now starting my life a new, with things and hopes which I am working towards...
I feel that in life, one should be critical to urself, and the best is to know yourself. You should be concentrating in improving your own with life experiences and with that, make u a better person (I hope).
Have attended Zehe's birthday yesterday and it was a day filled with bbq chicken wings. Met my C5 people also and was quite happy. I was feeling quite tired and the weather made it even better to rest! A few of us shared and wrote some wishes on the birthday card for him. Well, after that, I went back straight to my hostel.
I feel that life is much more than studies and seriously, if you are one whom keeps on studying and neglect other aspects of your life, please think twice again. Maybe it's good because you get very very good result, but for your own personal development? What about them? It may be a short term benefit, but what about long term?! When you go out and ...
Yesterday, didn't have time to go and type the blog. Anyway, I've attended another SkIe meeting again. It was fun, as we get to know that we should have to set goals before going to India this year end. The teaching assistant, Lynn, talked to us that when we act, we must know why we act, and how it affects us. After having this mental thinking, we should know how to apply it... learn it as a life skill... amazing stuff!
I was quite shocked to hear that only Crystal, Chee Kian and I formed a group to go and sell the calendars to the department. I thought that we are very late in forming the group because we told Mika about it only one week after she has sent out the email. But at today's meeting, I then realize that only our group has volunteered. Oh man, can't believe it's like the army again. I mean, we should be involved in the project together mah! We merely spent an hour from our schedule to sell 21 calendars for this project. I thought that it was ...
I feel that life is really in equilibrium. Whenever you have solved a problem, which leaves you to zero, another will crop up. It happened to me quite a few times along the my whole journey in life. Well, to come to think of it, it is good because it keeps you occupied. But the bane of it is that it is sometimes time-consuming and hard to solve.
Will like to share with you this song... ;)
SHOW ME HEAVEN ( sung by Tina Arena)
There you go
Flashing fever from your eyes
Hey babe
Come over here and shut them tight
I'm not denying
We're flying above it all
Hold my hand
Don't let me fall
You've such amazing grace
I've never felt this way
Oh, show me heaven, cover me
Leave me breathless
Oh, show me heaven please
Here I go
I'm shaking just like the breeze
Hey babe
I need your hand to steady me
I'm not denying
I'm frightened as much as you
Though I'm barely touching you
I've shivers down my spi...
