IT guy got back to me..... the 1 gig is only for d/l... and they're supposed to change the system soon so i can keep track of my usage.... i hope it's soon tho.... and it's 62 cents per Mb overshot. >< evil... which wld be ard...80 cents sing? hm... see how much i'll exceed first la... maybe i shud conserve some time for the easter hols... or else i'll be stuck lugging my com over to the library for the wireless network there....

incidentally... where IS my $1000? i got to shake hands with someone impt, but i dun see any sign of my money anywhere. XDXDXD maybe it's deducted from hall fees? la di da......

dinner was good.... entre was sushi. sort of. they had the wrong type of rice, and they used a char siew on one, but other than that it was good... main course was roast beef that was very tough, must have been one healthy cow when it was alive. XDXD cldn't finish tho.... dessert was heaven. it was this really light thingy with caramel on top... i think the bottom was made of whipped egg whites? but it was really good, and a little too dsweet... ^_^" still. it had sugar. loads of it. and we each got chocs after that.... i think i drank a little too much white wine tho... cos my ears felt really hot... i only meant to have 1/2 glass, but the waitress came ard and topped it up to full when i was abt halfway thru it.... -_-" was gulping orange juice and water to offset it... but no, i'm not drunk. really. i can walk in a straight line with my heels on. XD

took the college photo after that... principal was cracking lame jokes and... eww.. i just looked at my arm and the swelling is gross..... ahem. yes, college photo. it was pretty fun, i almost fell off the chair tho, cos i wanted to sstep over but my heel ended up on the gap btwn the chairs.. scary ne... then i went to pester my 2 new frens (cos they dun drink and hate parties too) into paying the piano... the PRC is really good..... i think she can compete with bay. played this chinese piece that i think was re-arranged from the qin or watever it's called, cos it was really really complex..... it was really good.... and even tho she made a few mistakes, i couldn't tell... then she played a piece from debussy, and it was really nice too... was telling her that if she ever needs money, she shud go be a lounge pianist... she'll earn quite gd tips too.

bleh... sleepy... i think i shud slp.... actaully wanted to wait up for the ms wee, but monday's your late day right? maybe tmr then...... must conserve some bandwidht..... ya right. ahem. well, if i go to slp before you come online ms wee... halo and see ya tmr... i think. see first... maybe i'll have to do tutes for intro to clinical med? and mum and dad are flying tmr, so i might not be in the mood to come online.... haiz.... no more running off to them... but i think i'm adjusting pretty well.... my policy is to just ignore everyone else. XD

i hope that the current friendship and stuff i have with all the s'pore meddies will last throughout, and not just these few weeks cos we're all so green... it's nice to be able to suan each other (ok. i do most of the suaning) and to learn how to curse in various languages.... there's this really fun girl frm mauritius in our grp, and i hope we can stay gd frens.... i think the asians are all bonding according to country now... ah vell. there seems to be a lot of asaians tho.... there's loads of dark-haired pple in the lecture this morning... but i guess most are the ABCs etc.....

well, ntie nite pple..... bedtime for a sleepy en^2. then i shud utilise the next few days of freedom to tweaking out a bakakame layout, even tho i dun feel particularly inspired to do them... maybe after their pin-up goes onto my wall ne? XDXDXD

4:57 PM

help!!! i need to go to safeway!!! to buy myself a set of toothpicks!!!!! O.o

oh my gosh... lecture today was an utter waste of my time..... it was so BORING! and brain-damaging!!! mrs foo!!! where are you when i need you!!!!! but then again, not everyone did bio so... and this is just an overview.... but..... *head desk* it didn't help that i was up at 6.50 to get my ass over to med fac by 8am for a stupid blood test and the TB skin test..... heck, the TB thingy isn't swelling..... swell dammit swell.... i dun want to have to prove to the nurses that i wasn't lying abt the BCG scar on my butt.... cos she didn't check me but checked another girl's..... ><

ya. so i was up for the bloody blood test, then i had a super crappy lecture abt nothing... then i mooned ard for 2h, and bought my lab coat... can you believe that ME hath to wear a PETITE and the sleeves are still too long?!?!?!? are they all ah mengs here or wat??!?!?!?! ahem. yep. after that all those with packed lounches whipped out their sandwiches and waved them at tim before starting to eat. DXDXDXD poor tim.... he didn't pack his lunch cos he lives by himself. and of course, i was rubbing in the fact that i get my stuff packed by the cook whereas the others have to do it themselves. XDXDXD vbut my packet of apple juice spilt a little in my bag, so i guess that's sort of retribution..... ^_^"

had another lecture after that, before we went to sign ourselves up for some weekend med trip down great ocean road... i wanna see the 12 apostles again! and it'll be so cool to get to do suturing... at least, i think we get to play... or watch demonstrations? XD after which we all went down to lygon for ice chocolate, which wasn't as great as the guys said, but still pretty good cos it was so frigging HOT today.... bleh. thank goodness my room doesn't really catch the afternoon sun... altho it is glinting off the car windows outside into my face, and darn there's an insect in my room... ARGH!!!!!

i think i'm supposed to paint my nails??? *whistles and looks ard* don't think i brought the one coat nail polich tho..... argh. heck. hm... i wonder if i shud wear my handcuffs or a proper bangle to dinner. XDXDXD it'll be a pretty good conversation topic ne? but pple might get wrong idea. XDXDXD

oh ya, i ran into ning da on campus just now. i think i trauma-ed the pple ard us cos i flying glomped her and bounced ard madly. XDXDXDXD

hm... i sound like a bimbo in the post.... must be from the lack of blood. XDXDXD and erm... was i supposed to read up on mitochondria, golgi complex, vesicles and smthg else??? *pokes lecture notes* they suck big time.... i'm using my hwach notes to study these. >< but i feel very accomplished cos i was suaning the guys the whole day again. XDXDXD go me~!!! XD

for the benifit of pearll: me goeth by my chinese name here... only the slur it together so it sounds a little wierd... but if they called me my english name, i bet i wouldn't answer cos i'll be thinking that it's someone else... OCF = overseas chritian fellowship... didn't go for orientation cos i cldn't gobble dinner fast enuff to get away... i think next time i'll eat my packed lunch for dinner or smthg or dun eat dinner and hope there's supper served there? ^_^" watever. i'm doing some serious rambling here. XD did that answer all the qns? i hope so.... typing as fast as possible (henceforth known as AFAP. XDXDXDXD) to cut down on internet time. jsut e-mailed IT guy to ask loads of stupid qns, so hopefully he can help without me having to bring nimbus dearie all the way down the hall to get configured..... i dun like checking my uni account from the website, i want to route it into outlook express nya!

okie dokie... shall go cheong toilet now or smthg.... autumn had better start soon.... all my long sleeved shirts!!!

11:53 PM

hm.... don;t ask why i'm online at almost 12 when i've got a stupiid blood test at 8 am tmr.... ><

on a happier note, i'm nwo the proud owner of 3 new story books. XD bought 'the da vinci code' yesterday, and 'prey' by michael crichton and FIRE FROM HEAVEN today~!! XDXDXD the cover for persian boy was much nicer than mine cos it's a different publisher? dunno. they had 'funeral games' too.. but it looked boring. i think it's mostly abt bagoas? i'll try to find it at library... or else if i'm really bored, i'll buy it for myself for easter break. the price is abt the same as s'pore after exchange so... haiz.

bought a load of storage stuff today.... now i've to fix up my towel haging rack thingy over my door tmr, cos my hinges creak and i dun think my neighbours would appreciate it now ne? not that i appreaciate the brass instruments in the morning... ><

got to buy lab coat tmr... i can't remember where it's sold, i swear i saw it somewhere, but i dunno where... shall drag the other s'pore students off with me... oh yes, and must start ptting reminders into dairy every week to bring my headband and rubber bands along for prac lessons.... and i realised i still haven't marked my desk caleneder with pple's b'days too... ^_^"

formal dinner tmr... i'm wearing my prom dress and the pointy toes shoes sis gave me... i hope i don't end up overdressed, cos i intend to play with hte eyeshadow she gave me... but then again, i'm prize winner, plus we're taking college photo after dinner so... hopefully i'll remember to paint my nails tmr or smthg. busy busy busy.....

okie dokie. off to bed now so i can wake up tmr... today.... watever. nite nite minna-san~!!!!

11:35 PM

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMY~!!!!! first to turn hatachi (20) among us.... we'll be joining you soon, so hang in there!! well, all except ning. unfair. >< tee hee. have a happy happy birthday and God bless! see you in july where i'll (hopefully remember to buy and) pass you a prezzie of some sort....

feeling very accomplished today... really take my hat off to all those kiasu s'pore med students who actually KNOW what they're doing.... a bit unlike me... cos i'm still kinda lost.... *showers luff and respect on them*

spent last night with mum and dad actually... they have made it their mission to find the best nasi lemak in the city... and there''s one pretty good and relatively cheap place near uni... so if anyone wants to go there, i dun mind going one day when i get sick of hall food. but so far the food is pretty good... but then agin, i've only gone for less than 50% of the meals in the past week? ^_^" anyway, mum and dad came over to drop (more) stuff off after i figured that noone was going for trivianight (turns out that the guys went... but didn't tell me. evil.. ><) so now i've got a nice fluffy pink bathrobe that's a little too long for me, and a CD player so i can blast my evil music to unsuspecting passers-by. XD altho according to my hallmate, the ground floor is apparenty the social rejects place while the 2nd floor is THE place to be... which suits me fine on days when i don't feel particularly happy. XD oh dear, me digressed a lot.... -_-"

anyway, i sneaked out of hall for dinner with mum and dad, then went over to their place where i hogged the toilet in peace. it's nice to be a a bathroom that actually has the shower and great throne in the same plae, and even nicer when you get the whole thing to yourself for 40 min, and noone can tell you to get lost. XD yup. after that i watched TV with them, and the ning da called me~!! *showers luff on the ning da* i gave her some warning that parents wld like to pop by to see how the apartments look like, cos they're worried that i might need to move out of hall. but i think i'll stick to it for the year. cos they might just take away the scholarship thingy if i leave halfway thru... and i've decided that i shall just use the internet as much as i want, and then use the money to pay off my bills instead of buying clothes. sides, hte clothes here are kind of..... cough cough. not my style... or i haven't found anything that i really like for a decent price. so i'm laying off the shopping for the time being. i've calculated that if i can keep my usage down to about 1 gig a month, i'll pay abt $60+ a month for 3 months, cos the first month will be 'free', and i'll only be here for abt 4 months. ^_^" it's amazing... we were just saying how after we've come to aussieland, all we talk abt is money, and everything is in 'K' now... tsk tsk.

woke up at 7.3- to drag my butt over to uni for some topclass it session..... and turns out that it wasn't compulsory. -_-" cos yesterday when i went to hand in the forms with mag, the lady circled the time and said "go for the next class tmr at 9 am" and when we arrived there, there was nothing going on. just a bunch of pple playing ard with the macs. incidentally, the mac seems so... wierd? i dunno. not used to it i guess... altho it is much prettier than a standard PC.... *pats nimbus* me still wurves you very much, so dun think abt trying anything funny to get my attn ne? anyway, we screwed ard with the stupid mac which threatened to hang on us every 5 min... and realized that our lecturer has a thing for loads of notes. *faints* i d/led everything into my thumbdrive... total is 40+MB, but that's for a series of 12? lectures.... but still a LOT. brought them back to print them, cos it'd be too ex to print in the lab.... and i need to test out my rpinter anyway. i shud start soon while there're still strange noises coming from the music room, otherwise pple might be wondering why there's strange noises coming from MY room. and no, it's not the t&T songs i'm playing. printer-san makes very itneresting 'mechanical noises' to qoute the manual...

after playing with the com, we gathered a grp of s'pore students and went to get our police check forms. it' so silly. i mean, when you accept an international student, they're NOT supposed to have a record in the first place, so why must we pay another A$13 (after subsidy by the uni) fof smthg like that? and since they're alreayd earning so bloody much from us, can't they just subsidize it too??? ahem. yes. so we got the forms. then we walked across half the campus to get our money orders from the post office, as well as a package of papers/workbooks/watever which we had to cough up $50 for. >< after which we walked back to med fac for some orientation seminar. which was pretty interesting, except mag and i wee really hungry after all the exercise.

there was supposed to be free pizza after the seminar, but by the time i managed to get thru to the boxes after filling out indemnity forms, there was NONE left!!! argh!! and baka!HC senior was esating 2 pieces and complaining abt the olives!!! >< and he insisted on baiting me with it..... but then again, i'd be suan-ing him for the whole morning, so i guess it was his puny revenge... but it was nice to irritate him. i always get the last word. XDXDXD i rock. *peace sign* anyway, after getting cheated of my free pizza, we (grp of 7) walked back to student union where i bought 2 pieces of pizza for A$1 each. XD and dangled them in front of him. XD then we went on a tour of each other's homes so we cld all pick up our thumb drives to d/l the lecture notes. cos we all figured that since we got a 50MB/week rate from the uni, we might as well use it instead of doing it on our own accounts... esp my very sad one... i mean, even IH has 200 MB!!! >< ahem. sorry for the whining. i just think it's damn unfair. (so wat if i'm stingy abt paying 0.62 cents per MB after that)

yup, so went on a walk to college square, before going back to JCH while JW cheonged off to trinity to save time. then when we were walking back to uni, he asked exactly wh ywe were doing that... whereby we all laughed at him for tagging along blindly. but at least we helped him get stuff done ne? XD yup, so we went back to the med fac to get our forms witnessed, and the receipt lodged. then we walked BACK to the post office to get an envelope and stamps (i think someone hasn't paid me for the stamps yet....) before we walked to the 24h com lab to d/l all our stuff... all-in-all a very productive day, with sooooo much exercise that i feel very healthy now. XD gd thing it was cool tho... i doubt we'd have done so much if the sun was roasting.... but.. i wouldn't mind just a leetle bit warmer weather? or at least for less wind? i was trying to hide behind various pple to make them my wind barriers, but it didn't work. ^_^"

came back to hall and contemplated going for OCF... but then it kinda clashes with dinner, so in the end i spent too long eating, so idecided not to go.... maybe next time if my fridays are fre in the afternoon, i'll dash back for a heavy lunch, and eat my cut lunch as my dinner... or else i'll just find pple to eat dinner with me in uni to get to meetins on timme. i think otday' is just orientation... but i wldn't want to walk in halfway if they were having prayer meeting or smthg.... not very nice ne? so i decided to start my printing in time for mondays lectures, and then chat for a while. i'm typing this out on notepad to minimise time spent online... so i guess that from now on, i'll prob d/l all the fics i want to read, then disconnect the cable to cut my time. then on weekends or when i'm at uni, i'll chat a bit.... but i wonder if the uni will appreaciate me installing msger onthe com... altho if i do go on, noone will be there, cos i'm definietly not running off to the com lab after dark. i don't like walking back myself.

hm... i've been bloggign very long posts lately ne? ^_^" gomen ne.... maybe cos i haven't spammed bloggie dear for so long, so feeling a bit deprived. anyway. if i don't decide to go online later, i'll probably be watching the gokusen special, or ese working on m new wallpaper.... oh yes, and incase anyone doesn't know, ning da won't be online till march, cos her itnernet won't be connected till then... poor widdle ning da.... i'll prob be seeing her this weekend when we go check out her house tho... so maybe we can go a bit nuts and hopefully not scare parents. XDXDXD

okie dokie. off to start printing before pple start coming back from the party etc.... got to bathe too.. but it's too cold.... and the taps are nuts... sometimes when you turn up the hot water, it becomes even colder before becoming really hot. >< haiz.... ja then~! off to be chao mugger in preparations for lectures..... i think i'll read my biochem TB for fun. XD and also so i won't be swimmin in question marks on monday......

3:45 PM

la di da.. that was one long post ne? well, here's another long one to make up for all the time i spent away from compy darling.....

stayed over with mum and dad on tues... was feeling a little depressed and very culture shocked... but me is ok now. ^_^ cos someitmes i feel a little left out, like when they're all drinking beer like there's no tmr.... or sometimes when they're chatting abt stuff and i dun understand... but was talking with one of the tutors and 2 of my seniors from taiwan yesterday (all of them have been here very long/born here, so they have accents too) and they were saying that it takes getting used to. 3rd yr senior said that he was like taht too when he got here, and that if i need help i can kacheow him. turn out that the tutor is one of the few non-drinkers, so she is the 'core entertainment' for all the under-aged and and non-drinkers. she's very cute... cos she's very petite.. so she was telling me to go children's dept to buy clothes from the 14 yr old section if normal clothes are too big/long for me. XD tee hee...

last nite was the rubix cube party... we were supposed to wear clothes of 6 diff colours and then swap clothes throut the party to eventually end up in one colour... i choose red, but i didn't managed to get rid of my white pants, even tho i had the correct number of itmes in the end... cos one guy gave me a red belt and refused to take my yellow shirt in exchange... but it was pretty fun.... and a gd excuse to turn up badly dressed. wore white pants with 2 tops - one yello one red - and a green scarf as a belt, over which i put a purple belt and hung a blue skirt from the side.... tacky ne? but ah vell. who cares. ended the night with a pair of red socks, a red belt warpped ard my arm, a red tie, my red top, a red cardi, my stupid white pants and a red cheerleaders skirt.... was tempted to keep the skirtm but figure i've no use for it so wat for.... but i kept my red top, even tho it's 2nd hand.... after all, it's only a few dollars, and i can anyhow wear/wash it without feeling bad.

o-leaders woke us up at 7+ this morning... but with breakfast. XD they made us pancakes, and we got to eat them in bed, which was really sweet of them... i think i had trinity's sirens going off at 6am, followed by pple running and shouting/cheering/cursing. XD so now me forgive them o-leaders for pouring 2 buckets of water over us afte rour morning run on mon. XD got to sleep in till 9am. then cleared my room and cleaned the window sill before going for a hall talk. then came bac and cleared a bit more (tho my room still looks like i didn't touch anything.... -_-") before i went to the clubs and societies fair...

joined the OCF. the pple seem pretty nice. meeting are on friday nights, so hopefully i can meet more pple there and get pple to walk me back. it's scary walking back to hall after sunset... cos there's lots of trees, and the streetlights are further out from the sidewalks compared to s'pore... wanted to joing the anime club, but it's not as great as i expected it to be, so decided not to... thinking of whether to join any of the sporting clubs, but not sure if i've time for them in the first palce. after all, my goal is to be a chao mugger. XD speaking of which, i got a $1,000 scholarship from JCH for my "outstanding results in 2004" XD which is strange, cos i only remember slacking the year away in 2004. XDXDXD *smacks self* ahem. shopping anyone? xDXD

need to figure out how to use all the variuos thingy's on the uni site and fac site.... so confusing.. all those new things.... and apparently i've to go for a police check etc... dunno whehter must go for blood test, cos i already submutted my results from s'pore, so hopefully they will accept that one, cos much as i find having my blood drawn up a vacuum tube fascinating, i've no wish to donate more blood to a lab. after all, i'm alrady up for fac blood test and vaccination screening next week at 8 bloody am on monday morning. while all the other prac grps get theirs at a saner time. unfair.

anyway, shall go clear a few fics and then continue tidying room while waiting for nimbus to cool down so i can lock it into my luggage. yes, i lock my com into my luggage. cos apparently, there're professional thieves ard. one thing gd abt living on the ground floor is that there's chicken wire and a metal grill across my windows, so i can leave them open all day. and if i lock my com into my luggage, well, it's more conspicuous to lug a big bright blue luggage past the creaky planks than to carry a laptop bag out ne?

welcome back to melby ning da... looking forward to wreacking havoc with you. XD i need tram orietation tho... the only 2 times i took the tram was when i was on scavanger hunt, and i simply hopped onto the tram blindly. -_-"

la di da..... to join fencing/wushu for fun or not to join... i don't feel particularly active...... and wat if i realise later on that i dun have time for them??? maybe i shud just stick to ocf and volunteer for anything they've got on.... or maybe join one of the hakll activities... only i dunno wad activities there are, and i'm missing that talk tmr cos of stupid IT lessons for med fac forum... it's sounds complicated, and the classes are compulsory... so if i find out taht's it's a total waste of my time... gr.

8:30 PM

first off, let me just clarify the i changed the date of this entry cos i wrote it out longhand on monday. XD here goes.

finally~! my internet is up~!!!! *showers luff on it guy* it's been a week without internet... very unbelievable ne? i bet the last time this happened was during the A levels.... anyway, excuse the spelling msitakes and stuff... have to get used to the keyboard...

arigatou everyone for the send0off... i only realized that i forogt to take piccie on... erm.... some day this week? ^_^" but pity there were no banners and fainting fans ne? XDXD hahahaha....arigatou for all the sugar from chun, junz and the ms wee.. i'll start eating them hwen term starts... it'll be my motivation to study... cos my timetable is seriuosly slack. i mean.. hello? 15 contact hours a week????? i swear there's a problem, but my 2nd year senior says it's correct..... listening to the ms wee's cd now.... the snger has a nice vioce, but some of the songs sound more like a san ge... but it's nice... XD kiao gave me a pretty sparkly purple top... which i told her i'll wear once i'm confident enuff to do my kaundry without worrying that everything's gonna shrink. bay + chiken's and junz's other prezie gave me a shock when i was on the plane tho... cos the guys gave me chocs, and junz gave me a wooden box thingy... didn't occur to me until just before take-off that they might be confiscated at customs... stupid quarantine laws and all..... and cos it was too late to pass them to sis (not that she came in with us to the departure lounge) to save them. but good thing the customs pple let them thru, ptherwise it'd be very sad....

flight over was so-so... me is airlin-ist. I WANT SQ DAMMIT!!! NOT QANTAS!!!! (heck, even the crew are better looking on SQ!) but the food was good. cos it was prepared by SATS aka sis works there. but not in catering. they gave a mini bar of choc too, and a vanilla ice, so i forgive them for almsot everything else. XD movies and games were complete and utter crap. so i was planning to sleep... but there was this bakabakabaka!!!!! kid in front, who started throwing tnatrums at 1h intervals the minute the lights were turned off. >< and it didn't help much that we landed at 3am sing time.... grrr.....

spent the first day wandering and freezing after taking a short nap at hotel... after which i went back and crashed from 8pm to 9am. ^_^" next day was international studnets breifing, which was veyr unmemorable...... but they really do like paperwork ne.... i've done so much signing that i might just sign away my money to you if you brought me a nnother coloured form while i'm sleeping. fridaay was enrolment day, which meant sitting thru an entire morning or talks and stuff... slowly getting used to the twang, butit's irritating when they mumble... and i wonder if i'll end up with one after 6 years... -_-" but enrollment was basically sit in a holl, get loads of papers to sign, then Q for over an hour... at the end of which they take a crappy photo with a webcam, print it out on a balck and white laser jet, laminate it and there you go, your very own student card which thankfully is valid for only a year. lcuky NUS pple... at least you's is decent... i maintian that i look fat in mine, except everyone is convincing me that i don't. >< funny thing happened at the end... one of the guys was telling me to go buy a pail, cos he's staying in a college too... and all the girls were going ??? wat for??? then he said, "you mean you guys are going to use cups to transfer all the water over into you washing machine?" at which all of us started laughing our heads off.... the poor guy didn't know that there are taps connected to the back of the machine!!!! cos if his laundry is aything like mine, there's a sink as well as 2 extra hot/cold taps besides the ones set up with the machines. XDXDXDXD ahem. poor thing... he looked really pai seh after we told him that he just needs to on the connected taps to get the water into hte machine!

went chinatown on saturday. got a HP numbver, but no handset, cos all the sets were kinda ugly/not the ones i want. so i'm using my old phone still... going back to do trade-in during the hols. also bought kettle, hairdryer and printer... must go install the drivers etc some time soon so i can print notes... also need to print a sign for my room door... cos some idiot went to write 'angela's room' dunno how many years ago on it with a black marker on the corkboard. ><

moved into the hall on sunday.... turns out i was late for the o-games... in fact, i only relised that i received a letter abt o-week when i checked my mail in the afternoon. unpacked almost eveyrthing, dad also helped me to reshuffle the furniture. didn't realise that needed permission to do that until too late. ^_^" but lots of pple did it too so... heee.... put up photos and ffx2 posters.... j jrs will have to wait till next week... but i really dun feel like clearing up..... and the vacuum is mysteriously missing? or else i'll have to go lug the one form upstairs down.... but back to hall orienataion...

they had disco last nite.. and they spent the entire evening convincing me to dance.... so i siam-ed off at 10.30, then read thru my stuff until 12.30, only to be woken up and conned into a 7 am run at 6.15 am. >< why oh why did i get up to go toilet JUST as the o-leaders were banging up the doors along my hall!?!??!? i thot that they had left already!!!

had to go shopping for cheap 2nd hand clothes with them just now.... for some crazy party on wed. then we had inter-college games and fresher dance competition. incidentally, i'm the only 1st year meddie in the hall... and 1/2 asian freshies without a twang. the other is a prc who's getting there.. but imagine the prc accent combined with aussir twang and... well. there's another s'pore girl who shud be arriving soon... they say that she's crazy and hates guys, so i'm looking forward to emeting her... i think it'll be fun. XD but i wonder.. how will hte angmohs react if they come in and see the bakakame gracing ym wall? so far only one girl has come in, and that was just after i finished pinning yuna and family photos up....

baka college network.... it's 1 pathetic gig a sem!!!!! such evilness... it'll have to last me like 4 months????? maybe i'll do some e-mailing from the uni inbtwn lectures... and then save college bandwidth for chatting......

3:56 PM

1:29 AM

i err... got confused again..... is shun uchiyama or noda? i can't remember... *pats both* gomen ne, you sound good together but other than that, i can't tell who's who. ^_^"

12:00 AM

fullll....... just came back from dad's b'day (in advance) diner, cos i won't be ard to celebrate, it's on 2nd march, the day after they come back from melb... went to this chinese restaurant in chinatown to eat... food was ok... the service was.... well. they seemed like students who were there to da gong (like touya from CCS...) so they weren't very enthu abt the job? the teapot was leaky, so when the guy poured my tea, it spilt into my plate. -_-" and cos i happened to be facing their cutlery station, everytime we asked for extra spoon (one for serving the yu sheng, the other cos they cleared dad's spoon by mistake) he would go get it and on his way back, he'd be swinging and waving it ard happily. XD quite entertaining really. ^_^"

watched gokusen ep 2 and 3 this afternoon.... and i have only one sentence to say... *deep breath*

SAWADA-KUN~!!!! MARRY ME~!!!! SO I CAN WORSHIP YOUR ROYAL FLIPPY-HAIR-AND-DAO-LOOK-OF-DOOM-NESS!!!!!!♥♥♥♥~~~~

i ♥ mop ever so much in his role there... even tho he got his pretty face bashed in... *whacks baka gangsters who beat mop up* of course, i ♥ the bakakame too, but unfortunately, they can never replace the original flippy-hair-of-doom.... or sawada-kun for the matter. *goes starry eyed* but i've come up with an equation for how gokusen 2 works out with gokusen 1......
sawada = boss + anti-social + looks out for others
yabuki = boss;
odagiri = anti-social;
take(da? not sure wad his full name is) = looks out for others
therefore by my warped law of induction, yabuki + odagiri + take = OT3. XDXD no wait. *baps take on the head and stuffs him into closet* YABUGIRI LUFF~!!! WOOT WOOT WOOT~!!! *waves banners* incidentally, yabugiri also sounds edible. XDXD yabuki can 'eat' odagiri with his onagiri (however it's spelt)

but sawada is so kawaii.... when yankumi showed up in her 'class 3D operation blondie' outfit to catch the thief disguised as uchiyama, he went over to a tree and was laughing to himself before he said that she looked ok. XD *pinches and pokes cheek* K~A~W~A~I~I~~~~~!!!! *showers luff and peace on sawada*

d/ling the special now, then all my gokusen will hve finished d/ling. *peace sign* well, except for season 2, cos me no know where to find the site.... hm... must get sis to help me d/l all my gokusen and PoT ne? i'll bribe her with the LV guide for her b'day. XDXDXD

packing is almost done. just got to finalize my cough nail polish cough and stuff, add in my books into handcarry and i think i'm all set..... *thinks* i don't think i've missed anything..... right? i don't want to go and restuff my luggage.... oh yes, must remember my discman charger... otherwise i'll be stuck using AA batteries until july... final round tmr, and i better not have anything missing, cos dad will be supervising.... and it's very, well, you know, with dad ard, cos he keeps giving suggestions wihle i'm trying to think where i put what, and then he gets anxious abt my not having this or can't remember where i put that, and then everyone goes nuts etc. that's the one thing bad abt packing with dad.... otherwise, he's a really gd stuffer. XD

off to finish the next 2 ep of gokusen now... haven't decided whether or not to go online tonite... cos i dun want it to interfere with my d/l rate... at least, i'm not sure if it will, cos 30+ kbps for a 700MB file is a speed i've rarely seen.... must transfer the whole pile over my hard drive too..... oh yes, the eddie-dear-lookalike was msging me just now... cos he's leaving tmr... and he was asking wad fun stuff i was bringng, cos he's brining his CDs... and i said i was bringing my CDs, and some LAP dramas. *falls down* i hope he realised that i meant JAP, otherwise... ^_^" ahem. well. anyway, i just hope he's being friendly, cos if he's even thinking abt sticking to yours truly for the next 6 years for the sake of s'pore copmany... well... he reminds me too much of eddie dear for comfort.... hopefully he's nothing like eddie, otherwise... *shudder* ok, i must be nice. i shall not classify them both under the same species of insect. XD i will shove eddie dear back into his specimen case at the back of my mind for future tests, and not associate coursemate with him. *determined nod*

incidentally, i bought a glare filter yesterday... except i bought 15" instead of 14.1". -_-" i've been thinking that nimbus darling's screen is 15", turns out that it's not. so good thing psycho compy-sama's screen is 15", otherwise i'd have blown $50 on nothing. >< *prods PCS* i'm so nice to you, you get your own glare filter, so you better behave and not conk while i'm away you hear? you will d/l ALL my PoT and gokusen like a gd little compy and behave until i come back and back up all my clips. haiz. so now i've to go and buy another filter.... i think i shud measure nimbus first ne? otherwise i will.... *crosses fingers*

gokusen 1 is luff. XDXDXD SAWADA-KUN!!!!!!!!!!!!! KAKKOIKAKKOIKAKKOI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *sqees and showers luff on his flippy-hair-of-doomness* if i EVER have a classmate like you, i'll be his number 1 fangirl.... XDXDXD

packing luggage is fun but horrible and a big headache.... half the time, i only remember what i'm supposed to be looking for after i sit on the thingy to shut it. ><

erm.... gokusen is luff~!!!! *waves banners* i'm d/ling the 5th ep now.... maybe i'll d/l the special as well? XD

i need to slp now... but..... maybe i'll just watch a little bit of sawada-kun suaning yankumi ne? XD *is happy fangirl*

4:36 AM

presenting: heart-to-heart talk over ono's head.... starring kage on the left, tachibana on the right, and ono in the centre.... chef sandwhich anyone?

it all starts with a very stressed chef...


who literally has nowhere to turn...


so the only thing left to do is grin at the boss...


to make things worse, the cameras zoom in...


and amazingly enough, all this while, he is desperately mixing his cake.


tsk tsk tsk. and before anyone asks again, they were discussing kage's daughter. and ono just... happened to be in the way. XDXDXD

4:11 AM

becos antique is crack and i have nothing better to do..... presenting, the pictorial edition of the TAKKI GUIDE TO KISSING~! starring ero-jiji as himself, and poor poor master chef!ono yuusuke (wadever his real name is) from antique as the model...

step 1: put your arm ard the guy GIRL...


step 2: put your hand on his 'her' chin and turn 'her' to face you...


step 3: tilt her chin up...


step 4: smile at her...


step 5: go closer...

closer...

closer...


step 6: don't get caught by her parents.


or in this case, your boss...


and before anyone freaks, no takki didn't kiss him. and he was just demonstrating how a newbie shud kiss a girl... altho i mus say, i was going SQEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE and laughing my head off throughtout the whole thing. XDXDXDXDXD let me post this, and then i'll go do the 'heart-to-heart talk caps..... oh the wonders of asus dvd and photoshop... XD

7:43 PM

after going out with hte ning da and ms wee, i have concluded that whenever ms wee leaves, we have a sudden outburst of xw-ness that is very... well... warped. ^_^"

started off at heeren... ms wee went to check whether HMV had KK greatest hits... but no have..... shucks,. can't pinch ko-chan's audio cheeks. XD then we migrated downstairs to marche where we got kertoked by their stupif minimum purchase of $15 thingy. >< or rather, ning da got kertoked... mine was abt $1++ so not as bad... went up to mise after that and flushed our reputations down the drain. i swear that the SA recognises and fears our presence.....

this time, we dashed in cos they were playing t&t.... and then me and ms wee decided to start singing along. XDXDXD so there were 2 rabid fangirls singing 'ai shigatari' while flipping thru takki pics. XDXDXDXD i want harucon da ne..... *cries* ms wee went on a photo buying spree... and she bought me a picture of my darling toma in his presidential campaign pose. XDXXDXD and she bought me bakakame pencilboards too~!!!! ♥♥ the ning da slo gave me the bakakame pin-up of luff and UST. *glomps both and huggles* BAKAKAME LUFF~!!!!!! XDXD

ms wee had to go for class after that, so we migrated back downstairs where we were discussing the best way to get my attn at the airport... and somehow it grduated to raising an uchiwa in the airport and there being en-shaped holes in the glass door....... ^_^" ahem. not my fault that bakakame are more raburabu than tomapi... i mean, they're in the same group etc ne? XD

went over to taka to buy mags with ning da after that... i'm so proud of her, she boght all 3. XD so i was in fangirl heaven when we were flipping thru the mags at the counter. there was a nother girl there too with the exact same selection. so she's a rabid fangirl too ne? XDXDXDXD potato had takki on the cover and the pics were pretty... i think it also had a bakakame pull-out? or was that wink-up? anwyay, ning da bought the mags then we went down to the foodcourt so i could buy my kaya toast... then we sat in a corner and fangirled madly and scared away everyone else who sat on the same bench as us... well, all except a lovey dovey couple..... *shrug*

i think it was the kaya or else it was the cheesy french toast.... i was seriously high and warped... we were examining pple's shoes, and we noticed that the tokio-sempai for the hatachi ceremony thing was wearing white/silver shoes with his suit. *faints* so we concluded that he stole it off tsuyo's fantasti-???? costume. which of course, meant that tsuyo ws bringing pple home while ero-zachou was busy with shock and groping tsuba and ryo and the MA guy... tsk tsk.. ero-zachou.... look what happens when you neglect your oyher half. XD jin's clothes were kinda untiday so we figured that he probably overslept/was too tired from the night before to straighten his collar and tie... but it looks eerily similar to his gokusen get-up somehow?

then we were discussing who looks older where and how... bfore moving on to more pics and crack of luff and peace. XDXDXD erm... can't remember all that we said, but i definitely remember pointing to hasejun and saying that he wld be haha-chan, then both of us started laughing madly cos we both said pail wld be PAPA-chan, cos he's PA-il. XD whereby ning said that if we went based on that and MAtsujun, then he'd be MAMA-chan. XDXDXD but since pail wasn't suitably puppy material, he shud be called papa-sna, and mop would be mama-san. XDXDXDXD

gtg change for dinner now... more later when i come home and remember ne? XD

Thursday, February 10

11:27 PM

bleh... cny weather is EVIL da ne.... so hot... *melts into a puddle of liquified sugar* and it's smoky to boot... so now the smell of cust and ash is all over and it still refuses to rain!!!!! *glares at the sky* where's the proper water cycle when you want one??? it's supposed to RAIN when there's lots of evaporation thanks to the hot sun!!!!!!!

anyway, didn't come online yesterday cos i was packing my luggage... like at long last... and er.... cough... i have a lot of clothes. i wonder when on earth i decided i was bringing that much stuff??? and after going through the entire pile to get rid of stuff, i STILL have a lot of clothes. -_-" but my luggage was surprisingly light until i realised i hadn't put in my books and stationery yet.... it was abt 17kg per piece for 2 cases... so i doubt i'll have any weight problems... i hope...... oh, and spastic thing, tho i think it's the weighing scale being spastic... apparently i lost 2kg sitting ard doing nothing. *eyes machine dubiously* i hpoe it tells the truth ne? cos i dun want my luggage to end up lighter than it already is. and i also dun mind the part abt losing weight doing nothing. XDXDXDXD so after the whole night and morning of packing, i'm abt 75% done... just need to stuff in my stationery and various cough cough cough from mise ne? XDXD

watched gokusen 2 after packing this afternoon... and suddenlt. i decide that i just HAD to d/l gokusen sesaon 1... so now i'm d/ling the first ep. and i'm not even sure if it has subs? techinically it shud but... ah vell, at worst i will just stare at the screen and go ga-ga when sawada-kun comes on. XDXDXDXXDXDXD but the baka!yabuki!jin is growing prettier and prettier IMO each time i see his widdle baka face... while kame is... well.... getting to be less pretty than the jin somehow. so may jin not play uke to anyone soon, otherwise i might just start shipping kamejin in terms of uke-ness while shipping bakakame in terms of nice-sounding names. XD make sense? ^_^"

yesterdays' money-collecting bai nian-ing was fun.... started off at grandma's house... ate lunch there... fishcake porridge is yummy~! little cuzzies were all dressed in fox, so i took picture with them and everyone was joking that we should send that pic in to fox as an advert, cos i was all decked out in fox too. XD and yes, in the end i did wear my long-sleeved t-chirt for the sake of looking/acting cute. XD cuzzie was high as usual, babbling nonsense the whole way and being very hyper and crazy. i can't remember half the crap he said, but i know he was being surprisingly corny for a newly-6 year old... like a 'barbeque' is actually pple going to a 'barber' and 'queuing'. *falls down* then we all sat on the cough and stoned and ate and complained abt the waether before packing off to grandpa's house...

grandpa's house was dpwnright boring.... i mean, there's nothing to do there, except watch the repeat of the repeat telecast of the china countdown/. -_-" then youngest aunite came and we all stoned for a while more before going home.... and when opening ang poq, we realised that this our, our grandpa was STINGY! >< he cut our $$$ by $40!!!! evil grandpa...... *prods prods* so sis was saying that we shud break into his house at night at steal his XO and cognac and go sell. XDXDXDXD and we calculated that if he did the same to all the other grandkids, he'd saved $320 altogether. >< ah vell. at least i still have enuf $$ to spend at mise and buy more clothes in aussieland... no wait, better not buy too much. later my wardrobe overflow.... *eyes luggage* why do i have so much clothes?!?!?

came home and listened closely to la tormenta 2004... i can spot matsujun, aiba-chan and sho's names, but i can't catch nino or ono's..... so i still dunno who's rapping the verses after aiba's turn... tho techincally, it should be nino first, cos there's last part goes smthg like " 'the head?' no, insert-name-here". *is confused* ah vell. also listened VERY closely to lucky man but.... i STILL can't make out like 50% of the words in the opening english rap. *whacks sho* will you just stick to rapping in jap??? if it's even you rapping that part in the first place...... nvm, i shall just whack you for being a cracked pail. XDXDXDXD

i really can't think very coherently with all that smoky smell in the air... argh!!!! rain dammit!!!! shall go get ficcage and wait for ning to come back..... going out for dinner tmr so i doubt i'll e onlione again... cos i'll prob be pai-ing antique in the aftenroon... that or gokusen again. XDXD i'm halfway thru the 2nd ep for the 3rd time cos i wanna see the bakakame fight and all the UST and the♥♥♥♥♥♥~~~~~!!! XDXDXDXDX ahem. dememnted fangirl. ^_^" *poofs in a cloud of cny goodies*

8:12 PM

IMPORTANT ANNOUNECMENT!!!

me can't make it tmr.... lunch was changed to dinner cos sis didn't take leave. -_-" so i can only go out with you guys on sat.. but that's only after ard 4.15-4.30.... gomen ne! if u guys see this before i come online you can discuss ne? sorry sorry!

off to watch gokusen and antique on com cos sis is hogging the TV... >< i dun think mum would be very happy if i dug up the extra vcd player just to camp in her room which is strewn with all my stuff already. ^_^"

1:07 AM

HAPPY CNY EVE~!!!!!

went back to HCI today..... oh man, the sign is disgusting..... baka baka baka alumni.... i hate that name. >< but at least the PE t-shirts are nice. they're not totally red and yellow if anything. ^_^" gomen xx.

reached sch at 8am... wah, i haven't woken up that early for a long time man..... went to office first to verify my certs, and ran into ms ong... her back was to me, so i went 'gd morning ms ong.' and she did the nod thingy u do to your students before she did a double take when she realised i wasn't her student. XD then also saw mdm yeo and mrs tam, and i'm amazed that mdm yeo actually remembers me... *touched* then again, how often do you get crazy PROs who beg you to have the day off to watch a basketball match ne? ^_^" ahem. did n't see supermario tho... not that i'd want tos ee him... come to think of it, i dun recall seeing him at the celebration either... maybe cos he's too short. XDXDXD ahem.

went canteen to wait for ms wee after that, saw the dancers walk past in their costumes... i'm so glad they went to borrow costumes this year, so it's not variuos shades of green.... i have no idea why most of the costumes we own are green... and i'm not talking abt normal green, i mean bright lime green that looks better under spotlights than normal lightings. -_-" *stares pointedly at chuan ge costumes* they had nice tie-dye red pants, and they wore handkerchief tops with a black tube, and i think they either got new fans or they borrowed them, they were a very nice shade of red and they looked very... well, clean. dance lao shi actually remembered me too.. maybe cos my chinese sucked so bad i needed pple to translate for me, but ended up in a CCA that was totally in chinese? ^_^"

met up with the chun and ms wee then went to watch the celebrations... the cheng men was nice, but the performances were... so-so.... maybe it was the general atmosphere? very few seniors went back, and cldn't really feel much qi fen. went to say hi to the teachers after that.... first was mrs tam. she was telling us where to find part-time jobs. XD some enrichment tour cfacilitator or smthg... must go ask chun for the details... then was mr lee, chun was complaining to them both abt statics and stuff, and she asked mr lee to give her tuition. XDXDXD and he had a highly trauma-e look on his face and said he forgot loads of his stuff already. he majored in elec. engine. ^_^ wanted to talk to mrs foo, but she was rushing ard all over the place, so didn't really get teh cahnce. turns out that ms pwyong left last year. >< mou! she never tell us when we went back for MAF... or maybe she hadnn't decided yet...... ran into dr macgregor downstairs and spent almost 1/2h talking to him and mrs ho... gave him an update at teh whereabts of the class, and he was telling us abt chiken and his HUGE camera's, which started me off on chiken vs JH in the war of the camera, photos adn related stuff... and halfway thru i was thinking er... coughthey'retryingtomakeupforsmallerthingsthat'swhytheygotsuch-hugecamerasandlensescough. remember, i didn't say that. ^_~ but he and mrs ho forgot my name..... so when mrs ho finally turned up, me and chun were trying to confuse her by putting our faces next to each other while i took off my specs (chun wears lenses now).. only she rememebred chun's name but not mine. >< wierd ne, cos she always called my name while looking at chun and vice versa..... XD

wandered aimlessly ard after that, it was really hot in the central plaza... ms wee bought me a cup of corn in the hopes of corning me, then she bought a coconut... didn't walk ard much, was too hot, and the place was too messy.... ran into linky tho... she's putting on weight at last, which is gd... her sholder blades were sticking out more than mine when i used to be even skinnier... we were talking in front of this stall when the wind blew and the banner collasped onto us.... one of the times i'm glad i'm relatively short --> the bamboo pole hit linky on the head, but i only got clipped by the cloth. altho i think i got sprite on my shoe... >< but it was very smart of them in the firrt place. they tied the banner to bamboo poles, which weere tied to a bench, which was put on a table, and not angled away from the field. so when the wind blew, then entire thing billowed out like a sail and went kabaam onto us. ><

went home after that... i chased 67 from the top of the bridge cos 2 came at teh same time... ms wee was supposed to go on 66, but after i sat down, the bus stopped again and she appeared. -_-" she was ZSTALKING me!!!! XD nah.... so we craqpped all the way to little india before she left me to try to remember where i was supposed to get off the bus. ^_^" haven't taken bus from bukit timah for so long ma..... reached home, cooked lunch, painted nails and then KO'd, cos dad was watching china preperations for countdown, so felt bad abt asking him ot move over for me to watch antique...

woke up at ard 6.30 and followed mum ard the kitchen trying to steal pomelo from the lo hei XDXD sis forgot to drain the ingredients when she prepared it, so it was a little soggy.... but it still tasted pretty nice... maybe cos there were raisins inside. XD family reunion was steamboat this year... 3 kinds of mushrooms, chicken (dad says cannot eat chicken for the rest of the year cos he's born in year of chicken. -_-: he's ultra corny today) fish and abalone... didn't have space for the tang hoon and wom bok this year, but still had space for chocolate and cherry cake with vanilla ice crem. XDXD tis proof hat dessert goes to a different stomach ne? XDXDXD

i hope it rains tonite... or that it's cloudy tmr.... otherwise i'll probably end up stewing in grandma's hose. i've decided tow ear my long-sleeved foc t-shirt no matter wad the weather... of course, i might still change my mind and end up in a toga top if it really really really looks too hot....

yay... tmr can collect money~!!! *rubs hands* me off to get ficcage and go high on crack now... and maybe watch antique? 60% chance i'll screencap the cough cough scenes. ^_^ *peace sign*

Monday, February 7

11:27 PM

bleh... haze no baka... my nose has been running the whole day and my throat was sore most of yesterday and this afternoon... >< wad the heck is burning now?? isn't it a little too early for the indonesian farmers to start their forest fires??? >< grr....

went to cut hair today... as expected, hairstylist flipped over the state of my hair, but his reaction was surprisingly mild... maybe cos (qoute) "aiyoh, i was working the whole day yesterday, SOOO tired *cue wrist flick*" ahem. he was telling me wad brands of moisturizer are gd to buy and use in aussie land, cos he has "a fren in perth who helps me buy, then i'll stock up." me --> O.o he highly entertaining ne? i feel bad but.... tee hee. it was a nadhouse thee, everyone cheonging to get ready for CNY, and maybe becos they're only gong to raise their prices tmr but close until the 16th... ah vell. at least hair is settled and doth not look as untidy as before. ^_^

went shopping with mum after that... trying to find pomelo for our lo hei and chuppa chups for sis... came home t ard 4+ and then watced antique. XDXDXD

it's highly crack man!! and takki is soooo kawaii~~!!! while the chef (ono) is so bishie~!!! *sqees adn pinches cheeks* all the little mysteries are more or less solved, except for why the chef is scared of women, but that one will probably be settled in another ep or so... takki wa being kay poh as usual, and evyerone was suaning him. XDXDXD but the stupid subs are irritating.... the english is so horriby doe that i've to depend on the chinese.. and sometimes they flash too fast ne? but i dun like rewinding and forwarding and abusin the pause button, so i have to muddle along until i figure out wad's going on... but there was one really really funny scene.... the boss (tachibana) dragged the mysterious spying guy (kage, who eventually ends up working for antique) to the kitchen to ask him when on earth he got married and had a daughter... only tachiban's idea of a heart-to-heart talk took place over poor porr ono's head. literally. they sandwhiched ono btwn both of them while ono was trying to mix a cake, and then the camera was REAL close to their faces, and everytime ono turned to either side, it looked like they were going to ahem ahem ahem XDXDXDXD *fangirl brain rot overdrive* that part was really crack... and spas... poor poor ono.... and then the figurine that takki broke in the first ep kept getting broken, and he and kage were shoving it ard btwn them cos they both didn't want to repair it. XD in the end takki manged to glue it back, but tachibana's grandma broke it by accident the next time she went there. *rofl*

la di da... must go and watch more... maybe tmr if i get hoe early? got to return the set to lyd before she flies ne....

going back to hc (or shud i say, HI) tmr... at least, i'm abt 60% decided to go..... but i wanna go early to watch the performances, except that chun dearie has not replied my sms... >< we're supposed to go back early tmr cos she wants to... cough mass dance. -_-" i want to go back to watch the dances, but not TO dance.. and i also got to verify my certs, so i guess either way i'll ne dup back in school ne? prob going out with class after that, except i have no idea who's going yet.. *shrugs* ah vell, i can always pretend that i'm very busy and need to pack (which isn't entirely false) and poof home to watch antique. XD naughty me ne? hmmm.. i wonder if there's any way of copying the vid files into my compy? XDXDXD *smacks self*

shall go get ficcage and wait for pple to come online then... then i guess i shud slp early... bleh. >< ih,, and d/l more tsuba vids from the tsubahlic website. XDXD it's finally got back bandwidth, so must d/l whle it lasts. XDXDXD more tsuba no perky butt luff~!!!!! ♥♥

1:32 AM

back from reunion dinner, but not going online to chat cos got to wake up early tmr to go cut hair.... sides, i need to finish my books. ^_^" but i can already imagine the hair stylist screaeching and wriging his hands at the sight of hair.. i think a lot of it broke off after rebonding.... i wonder how short it'll end up this time *pats hair* you've been a gd fren... but i'm sorry, given he weather and stuff, you'll just have to go shorter.

transferring links from psycho compy-sama to nimbus is ma fan... haiz...

reunion was...... crazy. cuzzie dear was high as usual... one thing abt being the youngest kid where the next youngest (excluding your sister) is already 18... everyone gives in to you and treats you as the baby of the family, is highly ammused by your antics, and is willing to get pummeled/stepped on/climbed/etc. he was boxing my uncle, and then it degraded to throwing paper balls, an attempted thoring of a chusion which was stopped in time. -_-" my grandma's place is a 2 room apartment (or is it 3? is the kitchen counted as a room?) so if he DID throw the cushion and given his aim, it wld probably have ended up on another cousin's head or on the wall. or maybe in the potted plant in the corner? ^_^" never ceases to amaze me how on earth the entire family (16 adults, 2 kids) manages to squeeze into that space and eat our food without climbing over each other... used to be better in her old place, where there where 2 bedrooms with a verenda, and we used to chase each other round and round the wall btwn the 2 rooms..... i miss being a crazy kid. we'd play with sparklers and burn a hole in the wire mesh on the staircase. XD and get all sweaty and then get scolded by our parents for going too nuts. ^_^"

food was yum... mum did mushroom and bacon pasta... and forgot to bring the dried chilli. -_-" not that i mind, cos i dun eat chili. there was grilled chikcen wings, the lo hei, tofu, the yam cripsy noodles thingy that i have no idea what it is called, and popiah. XD my auntie makes nice popiah... and maybe it's just me and the sweet sauce. ^_^ but then again, it wasn't me bouncing off the walls ne? *pats cuzzie* kawaii ne, dun grow up so fast okie? hmm... i think i've a pic of him somewhere without the glasses... maybe i'll put it up for u guys to see... photo of cuzzies, taken sometime last year or the year before when my house still had a pond. and before he got glasses. kawaii ne? the very definition of motormouth. XD

la di da... can't remember what else i wanted to say, so i guess i'll stop here for the nite.... need to start packing soon ne... thursday i think. ne, if time flies, why do they call it father time? why not birdie time of duck time or chicken time? huhuhuhuh??? *prods person who came up with it*

ps: i dunno whether i mentioned this or not but er... cough cough. i copied kimi wa petto and gokusen into my portable hard drive. XDXD so i'll have my puppy and my baka and my turtle (collectively known as the baka turtle maybe?) to keep me copmany if and when i get bored. XD *peace sign*

pps: cuzzie was wearing a t-shirt that said love and peace today... i almost burst out singing "LOVE LUV LUFF LURVE ♥ AND PEACE~!!!!" but managed to restrain myself. feel proud of me man... XD

1:50 AM

*peace sign* feeling very accomplished now... nimbus-san is finally up and running just the wauy i want it too. and in case anyone's wondering, nimbus is (IMO) an androgynous name, therfore it hsall be referred to as an 'it'. like nataku, but i digress as usual. XDXDXD

everyone who walks past the study now is complaining of the blue lights shooting out of my mouse. XDXD cos i brought an extra table into the study, so now i face the door --> can see clearly if anyone's planning to surprise me/get rid of all the evidence on screen. but if my lights are really that cough cough cough... well, means that whoever sits across me if i ever bring nimbus out for a walk had better be wearing sunglasses. XDXD crap, now my laptop is turning into a puppy in my imagination.... ><

anyway, took the entire afternoon to instal all my programs, like PS7, ASUS DVD, digicam software etc.... then after dinner i was entering all my links and extracting all my fonts (making total in system 320, dun ask)and all my PS brushes...... *feels very accomplished* starting to get the hang of a new operating system.... but not very used to the start-up menu yet... ah vell.

must use other compy tmr.... left out some links that i want to add.... looks like i'll hve to e-mail myself another round... tsk tsk

important annoucenemnt: hasejun hath been added to my puppy list as puppy number 4. XDXD the bakakame are still on the list, cos one's a baka and the other is technically a turtle. XD but then.. if my other 3 puppies are called p-chan, toto-chan and momo-chan, wouldn't that make hasejun..... haha-chan??? O.o ahem. that's a very cough cough sad name... *pats hasejun and pinches his cheeks* i'm not exactly thinking very the straight now.... in fact, i think it's time for bed... but but but! my spammage from hte ning hasn't completed yet.... *prods spammage* i wanteth to see the crack arashi pv ne!!!!! ><

reunion dinner tmr, so won't be online at nite..... i shall start praying now that CNY day itself is sunny, but not hot and humid. so i can wear my 'superstar' t-shirt from fox... that is long-sleeved. >< haiz. the things i do for the sake of vanity. ^_^" off to play games and wait then... nite ntie minna~~~~

8:05 PM

YESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERYTHING IS WORKING FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *does the jig* to celebrate, i shall now proceed to surf the net for a nice name.... altho from wat i have in mind, it might end up rather morbid....... hm. ^_^"

btw, does win xp have a built in firewall or smthg? cos i just installed a free one just in case.....

oh crap, i realised i haven't installed everything i ened yet... argh.... need to do my asus dvd and PS7 and my digicam thingy... >< *pats laptop* looks like you'll have to go nameless for a while more ne?

*15 min later* i hereby dub former dell-chan 'nimbus'. at least, unless i can come up with something better.... or if i forget that laptop is now called nimbus? ^_^" or it can be nimbus aka dell-chan. XD

a little corny maybe, but me like clouds. (and ff7 cloud too. XD) nimbus = storm cloud, dark and rainy = dark grey in colour, which is abt the same as dellnimbus-chan's so.... *pats nimbus* you shall be my new best friend for teh next 5+-6 years okie? ^________^

5:10 PM

bleh.... winxp no baka........ was trying to install the win xp SP2 last nite... only the thingy hung halfway thru, so i had to restart my laptop... and then the baka thing refused to install!!! *hyperventilates* and then the system thingy tells me to uninstall wad was installed of SP2 becos the system was unstable, and i couldn't get any of my security updates to install. so i uninstalled it, and now i CAN'T CONNECT TO THE NET TO RE-D/L THE BAKA SP2!!!!!! *steam coming out of ears* so now i'm blogging on psycho-compy-sama while i wait for the thingy to d/l into PCS and then i'll transfer it over into laptop.. haiz.....

please work... i so do not want to call dad's fren and tell him that i screwed up my com barely 24 hours after getting my hands on it.... *wails and throws tantrum*

to watch antique while waiting or not? i think i shouldn't....... i bet i'd get sidetracked.... ^_^" argh... *prods d/l* faster le.......

4:27 AM

*pats laptop* ME GOT MY COMPY~!!!!! XDXDXD so excuse any typos while i get used to my keyboard ne? then again, i always have typos so, wad's new... ^_^" yuppo. anyway, me got my laptop today~!! * streamers and balloons* and it's much prettier than toshi-chan. XDXD haven't settled on a name for it yet... maybe i'll go surf for names later ne? ^_^ cos dell-chan is really... well.... cough cough cough... but there's a very high probability that i will end up calling compy dear dell-chan.... but imagine.... for the next 5+ years, i will be going dell-chan this and dell-chan that and pple who dunno wad i'm talking abt will prob think "OMG! SHE"S A ****ING LES!!!!!" ^_^" ahem. i need a name..... and i need to go get the chinese/jap language viewer thingy.... everything is showing up as sqaures and stuff again. ><

let me describe my compy since i doubt anyone's going to get to see it soon... it's a dark silvery-gray, not as shiny-silver as ning's apple-san, but not grey... at least i don't think so. kinda hard to tell when the glare is in my eyes and the lighting in the study isn't really good... screen is bigger than psychp-compy sama (which is now transferring data to removable hard disk, hence the blogging on this com, not enuff USB ports there without the extension which i'm using here) and yue is my wallpaper. ^_^ the one that was on reserve for bloggie layout, so guess i'll have to come up with another layout then.... tsk tsk.. but i've to try out PS on laptop, so just as well. ^_^ erm... wad else.... ah yes. my mouse is dark metallic blue... and it's got blue lights coming out of it. O.o didn't realise it was so... cough... blue until i plugged it in just now.... and to make things even more blue, my USB extension lights up BLUE as well when it's plugged in. * falls down* so if you ever see someone surrounded by blue lights tapping away at a DELL compy, it's probably me. ^_^" thanks goodness the hard drive light is red not blue... otherwise it's be seriously..... hehehehe. erm...wrist rest is blue for mouse, transparent green for keyboard. not like it's of any use/help now cos i'm sitting on the floor typing this out.... and i'm impressed by the number of non-typos i've made so far compared to toshi-san.... dell-chan!! we have affinity~!!!! *glomps compy repeatedly* ahem. ike i said before, i need a name... but i'm too lazy to go search and type bloggie entry too..... speaking of bloggie entry, maybe i shud start a titling system.... but wad if i can't come up with a title on some days? O.o

i digress, but i think that's all abt compy for the moment. until it gets named that is. ^_^

went out for dinner with the ms wee and da jie today.... we had coffee club... my lasagne was supposed to be mushroom and smthg but it came out as a whole mass of veg.... gd thing i love veg, otherwise i think i'd have given up... i mean seriuosly, it was over-green...... oh, and ms wee created history in coffee club... she asked for a pair of chopsticks to eat her fettucine. XDXD *rofl* and got ribbed by the waitress the whole time we were there after that. XD i like that waitress, she was funny... and reminded me vaguely of ms ong somehow... treated them to dessert there afterwards, strawberry shortcake for ms wee, cos she helped me buy so many things lately, and tiramisu for da jie, cos i've been owing her that for more than a year already i think. ate a brownie mudpie thingy that came with loads if irei dust... yummy~~ and the cappucino ice cream was nice~~ or maybe cos i haven't eatne coffee ice cream for a long time? *shrugs* but it was nice... and full of sugar.

went to ms wee's house after that to ask her dad to help me fic my hard drive... the baka thingy couldn't go in, kept getting stuck halfway... biggest joke, the minute he got his hands on it, it decided to fit. -_- ok. so maybe the memory part was trying to gek me cos i am THE computer cavewoman ne? but.... haiz, it was very sad. at least it got fixed in the end ne? hung ard a while after that cos mum was stuck in a trafic jam.... and ms wee was trying to bury me under all her cushions. -_- i think she was high on sugar but too sleepy... scary da ne...... *pats self*

came home and started fiddling with laptop again... been fiddling for abt an hour so far, nstalling updates etc.... now killing time while all my mp3s and vids transfer to harddrive, then i'll transfer them over to laptop.... la di da.... 40 min left.... argh..... shall go check my mail and surf to find names for laptop. and go do my bookmarking for both firefox and IE.... tsk tsk tsk.... oh ya, got to wrap my moore and guyton and write my name on them..... must start mugging but..... *eyes rusty gears in brain* *prances off to pretend to be hardworking*

for the ning da's reading pleasure: rikkai in the kitchen XDXD enjoy ^______^

12:56 AM

wow... 3 days since i was properly online.... miss me anyone? XDXDXD

tuesday: went down to NUS to check out textbooks..... was feeling very accomplished the whole day, cos i started off with.... SUANING THE DANIELLE~!!!! *rofl* so shiok. XD i haven't done it for... almost a year? *rubs hands* and pearll made the stunning discovery "oh you mean that THIS is THE danielle from your class? the one who's not a man?" to the med fac pple. *rofl* and i patted him on the head and called him a himbo at least 5 times. *oozes happy evil* tee hee..... lucky he's a gd sport, otherwise i long ago fly out the window. XD dun worry danielle.... (if you're even reading this, which you shouldn't... *pats head and pinches cheeks*) i won't walk into your clinic one day and sqeeee "DANIELLE!!!WAD HAPPENED TO YOUR AHIR?!?!? OMG YOU LOOK LIKE A HIMBO~!!!!" in front of your nurse/patients/future wife. at least. not unless i'm in evil bunny queen mode ne? XD

after that i had lunch with pearll and fren who were really helpful with rec-ing books... then they brought me to the co-op where i got to flip thru stuff, after which they gave me directions to get to central library.... i think i just MIGHT have gotten lost if i hadn't seen da jie at the bus stop waiting for me, cos she sms-ed me on the bus to ask where i was... and i was scaring her that i was 75% sur3e i'd get off at the wrong place. ^_^" anyway, so i bounced madly ard da jie before terror-ing the ms wee at the booth... gave her an ang pow for buying my compy stuff. XDXDXD wahahaha, u shud have seen your face ms wee... it was really delocalised cloud of qn marks. ^_______^ but then she spanked me for that. *sulks* erm... wad else... ah, wandered ard the bazaar and dragged da jie off to buy doughnuts. ^_^ which were probably spiked... cos while i was holding it, i suddenly had the urge to go and volunteer my kanjani 8 CD to the 'DJ'. XDXDXD which ended off with them ripping enak song + both remixes and blasting it. XDXDXD *waves K8 flag* kansai crack is luff~!!! but too bad we didn't stay long enuff to hear them blast it a second time round. ^_^" went to med lib after that to touch more books... ran into jess and ky and they were a big help too, jess esp. *sends telepathic msgs of thanks to them* hopefully that won't fry their brains. XDXDXD

migrated down to suntec for gelare waffles after all the intellecual (cough cough) work. too bad i was too full for the 1/2 price waffle.... but i somehow managed to shovel 3 scoops of ice cream for dinner... *raises eyebrow* ahem. was trying to convince the ms wee to buy tsuyo's album, and the ning da to buy kk concert for the sake of the backdancing and and wedding... but both failed.... haiz. then we said gdbye to the ms wee at city hall (and got told off by a baka lady for blocking the way just as we were moving out of the way. ><) and made our way down to main orchard road.... btw ms wee, next time if you value your saninty, do NOT leave the 2 of us alone either online or in the general area of mise. XDXDXDXDXD

first stop: hmv: where ning bought arashi concert VCD *showers luff and peace* mop mop mop!!!! then up to mise where we terror-ed the shoplady. XDXDXD i think she resognises us... or rather, will recognise us if i go in there anytime soon... i mean, well. we called the ms wee to ask if she wanted fine boys mag with takki on the cover.... and then cos the music was really looud and i ahppened to be looking at the kat-tun section which had a plastic folder with the nice red pic of jin, i more or less shouted into the phone "do you want a bakanishi folder?" ^_^" and i think she gave me a strange look. ^_^" ten i wqas sqee-ing to ning abt how i wld stick it on my door and throw darts and pen-knives at it. ^_^" after which i went thru all the photos in search of a nice toma one... and complained abt how the 4-tops pic was out of stock, and how p-chan whud be sharing the pic with toto-cahn, not koyama. *prods koyama* dun dian deng pao them da ne~!!!!! ahem. yup, so i bought pics of luff and peace. go figure. XDXDXD then both of us camped at her counter where we went thru all the photos in the boxes there, and fangirled over mop and pail right under the SA's nose ^_^" i hope she didn't udnerstand half of it... except maybe the mop part, which wld be pretty obvious if she looked at matsu's hair. XDXD ahem. after that we made a quick exit... *whistles innocently* at least this time we BOUGHT something ne? ^_~ and ning and i have made a deal that the next time we go back to nmise, we will both buy more pics... so that sooner or later we can get a piece of vanguard and make the ero family tree. XDXDXD (i hope the family tree part was figurative... wad if parents/sisters paid surprise visit and saw it!!!)

fangirl urges satisfied, we went over to taka to touch mags in kino... but nothing to buy, so we ended off at the basement where i bought the pancake thingy to bring home. then we had fruit juice and corn and cheese pancake (me) and pineapple (ning) for dinner.... the day was definitely full of strange meals.... we flipped thru the mag after 'dinner' and it was a little.... coughcoughcough it GREEN CHECKS in this season for guys or wad?????? and there wa smthg that definitely resembled toma's PJ-ensemble he wore to the concert rehearsal ne.... *faints* but there were nice boots and jeans....

that was tuesday, now for wednesday:

lyd came over... went to suntec for steamboat with her and mum. the food was not bad, but the dessert was yummy~! some water chestnut jelly thingy with condesned milk... and mini fried man tou that tasted like it had sugar in it. XDXDthen went to carrefourre to see if they had anything for cuzzies b'day... bought him a spongebob squarepants computer game... pretty cute... i want one myself!!!! *resists urge* then we ate yami yogurt before heading home, where i corrupted her with all the johnny's clips courtesy of ning da... and gokusen. XDXDXD she is now almost on the bakakame badnwagon. XDXDXD *feels please with self* oh, and she hath professed her undying luff for the yabu-chan, cos she saw the vid of toma laying claim to him. XDXDXD *pinches their cheeks* but toma must go lay claim to p-chan too ne? bejore the bakanishi gets any ideas..... *throws bakanishi into a sack and locks him in the clsoet with kame-chan* XD

and now for today: went textbook shopping... managed to get 5 books, still need 2 more... and i weighed the books for fun, total weight so far is abt 5kg already. -_-" went down to sim lim after that to buy webcam.... only we changed our minds at last minute and decided to scrap the whole webcam deal. -_-" so i bought mum a lollipop to console her. XDXD also bought myself a pretty USB port extension/multiplier/watever it's called, plus wrist rests for mouse and keyboard, and a set of headphones with the mic thingy (for fun... i also dunno why i want one. ^_^"). and i saw this pretty pretty mouse for $18. it's wine-red with the... smooth rubbery-feel(????) type of material... i dunno. it's pretty and it feels nice to grope. XDXDXD just got off the phone with dad's fren... dell-chan is ready for collection!!! altho there's no frontpage yet..... and it came with a free thumbdrive. ^_^" so now i have 2. XDXD maybe i'll sell it to sis. XDXD *rubs hands evilly* and it also comes with a dell mouse..... >< so i dun have a valid excuse to buy the pretty mouse.... but but but!!! *pokes the future mouse* may you be big and bluky so i can buy the nice small one. XD i'm supposed to use it and abuse it to make sure it's all in working order.... XDXDXDXD OS is win XP, but office is 2000... ah well, as long as it works i cldn't care less ne? XD

wow, super long post... imagine how it'd look like when i get to melby, cos i'll be internet-less for 5days on arrivaly before moving into hall. XDXDXD tee hee... la di da... so now books are settled... (must go bras basah and collect moore) compy is settled (i want that mouse dammit! i think i'll sponsor myself. XD get mum to drop me while i run up... i hope they still have the red one tho... the white isn't as pretty) clothes are settled... watch batteries settled... stuff toys settled... (mum is giving bruno the bear a bath... he hasn't bathed since i got him in 1996. ^_^" unless being steam vacuumed counts?) now i just need to learn how the heck i use a luandry bag, wad shud be washed how and erm.... i think i'm settled? time flies.... just last year i was mooning abt the fact that i had plenty of time more to slack... and now with less than 2 weeks, things are omoving so fast.... also cos of the CNY break, when all the shops close and stuff.... haiz... guess it's about time for me to grow up ne? *pats self*

yamapi's song is nice... nwo i regret burning that CD so soon... haiz... nvm nvm, i shall just play it repeatedly until i can remember it by heart..... but.. his singing is kinda uninspired..... may he turn out to be like tsuba, whose vocals suddenly became very gd (and very similar to ero-jiji's) after he got married to said jiji. XDXDXDXD
