it's chinese new year day 2.
and I LOVE MY PARENTS!!!!
i realised i'm such an unfilial daughter and my parents treats me damn good. damn damn damn^infinity good.

today was supposed to be a boring chu er for me. nothing planned except goin to my dad's bro's hse (which i didn't go...yea!) and to go praying (which i didn't go too...bad).
so in the afternoon,
i was asking my dad, "today only go to blah blah's hse arh?! can i dun go? can go other places too?!"
my dad replied, "don't want to go, don't go lor. where else u want to go, i'll bring you anywhere u want."
i then said, cheekily, "australia!"
my dad said, "let's go!"

in the end, we never go aussie. haha. it was ridiculous anyway.
but my parents brought me and my bro to the place where i sort of wanted to go rather badly.
river hong bao to see fireworks.

we went to river hong bao the 2nd time right after our dinner @ 8pm. yes! the 2nd time straight...this time JUST to see the fireworks coz i wanted to.
ahhhhhhhhhh........i feel tt i'm such a unfilial daughter!!!
yesterday we missed the fireworks as we were already walking to the bus stop after dinner. saw the fireworks via the reflections on the windows of the buildings. i think i had a great disappointment shown on my face...arghhh...stupid face of mine!
anyway, the fireworks were spectacular, even though we were not very near to the place where they had fireworks...but it's really very very very very good enough for me.
missed recording the nicest part of the fireworks! i shall not be so kae kiang nxt time! switch from video mode to pic mode...den to video mode....boo!!!

ahhhhhhhhh....I LOVE MY PARENTS LOADSSSS!!!
i promise to bring them to wherever they want next time when i have the money and the time to bring them...

maybe, i really seek perfection.
maybe, the headache gonna be there till tt day...
maybe, it means sth for me?
maybe, i should take things easy.
it's just a friends gathering.

happy chinese new year~

very little people in office now. zzz.
most went out.
kl nv come. =( tt slacker. hahahaha.
she missed out the fun...today my colleagues were funny! lol.
amy gave me ba gua and 2 kams...very nice of her. =)
i shall continue with my work now.
i'm good. =P
or perhaps i'm bribed. =S
my eyes are blurrified...by tallying stuff...bOo! =X

i guess i'm still quite insensitive towards money.
received my pay yesterday. for a sec, i was, i would say quite delighted when i saw it? but the next second, my delighted feeling died. life was normal again. i'm insensitive right? kinda i guess.
maybe because it's just a check. definitely not because how much i got my pay (shan't divluge the amount i received)
hmm...maybe, i need to get my pay in real notes..then the feeling will last longer?! lol. crap crap.
was quite looking forward to getting my pay cause janice was quite excited when she got hers, so i supposed mine will be ard the same. haha. i'm wrong. oh well.

anway, offered to give part of my salary to my parents. they rejected me. and they said i was a stubborn little kid! boo! so, my salary shall go to my future education expenses. i still feel like givin my parents some money!! oh well.
my mum said, "don't need give me. i don't need it. when you really start to work, then give me."
my dad said, "i still got earn money. next time i stop earning le, then u give me lah."
how to insist? gEez. i'm a stubborn little kid who don't know how to enforce my stand. =(

sleeping rather late these few days. 2am...3am...3.30am...
and i'm like working the next day?! haha. it's quite miracle that i'm still not yet a walking zombie.
talking with janice rocks! i mean it k! no sarcasm intended. didn't know we had so much to talk about. =Pp let's have some typing game again...soon. rmb to lend me your books! esp the "it" book!

headache now. sort of organising 1st feb dinner for the class peeps. i think venue will be at marina. i can't think of anywhere else. =X
need to find cheap places. need to think of wat time to meet. worry that it won't be like fun or enjoyable. worry that not much will turn up in the end....argh! the last pt, not so much actually. coz, i dun like forcing people to do things they don't want to. but i really hope many will turn up...and it will turn out fun.

from the bottom of my heart..organising things sucks! things is referring to anything.
from planning and all the crap. then the response/outcome... sometimes might give sense of achievement..but sometimes it doesn't.
i stopped organising things for quite sometime coz i'm a person who thinks too much. hahahhahaa. ignore all this bottom of my heart thingy. it's crap. lazy to delete.

anway, 1st feb@ marina most likely...time...still thinking of the right moment. LOL! shall inform all LATEST by monday. LATEST.

fave song at the moment....Schnappi by a 4 year old german girl.

wishing all,
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!! LOL.

Memoirs of a Geisha.
NICE! GO WATCH! =)

i don't mind watchin it 2nd time...if i got the $$$. lol. if any kind soul would like to treat me?? sponser half of the cost of a movie tix oso can....hehez. =Pp

a new year, a new teacher, a new style, a new beginning.
i've discovered a new sense of achievement from guitar.
in the past, it was the no. of songs i learn how to play that gave me that sense of achievement.
i could juz anyhow play the songs...i know i really didn't understood how to play. (my silent reading according to the new teacher, was quite lihai)
it was the quantity tt matters then.
now, it is the quality. hehez. i've spent 3 weeks on the 1st page of a song. 1st page!! i tell u, it's not hard ok. but sumhow, just keep repeating. 1hr of lesson, 10-15min i was doin scales. den practise the song. sometimes the lesson "overruns". my previous tr ends @ 8pm sharp, or earlier. haha. slack right. but anyway, i think i am improving. the teacher was like pushing me to play louder. but i'm not confident lah. so play softer...hehez. played a bit louder after he forced.
i think this new one is a better teacher, though i sort of like my previous tr more.
unknowingly, i've learnt guitar for like 6 years...but it's until now, that somehow, i think i can play in front of people...just give me perhaps, another year. maybe, i'll play a song in front of u ppl. maybe.

keeping this short. wanna zzz soon, coz later watchin memoirs of the geisha~ =)

some photos from the past 3 days...HERE

my life seems to be more and more happening these few weeks. lol.

when we filled the waterbombs, it was ard 1140am...gEez..we were supposed to meet dingy and yinmei @ 1130am den proceed to kel's hse.
our plan was almost disrupted when kel said he was goin to his friend's hse den go westmall to meet us. so, had to tell him we are going to his hse....
waited at the shelter below his hse...

then he came. our belated bday celebration for tt botak boy started...
as planned, we blindfolded him...then me and xx just brought him to a little walk ard his void deck. lol. he had no idea of where he was going. he was scared stiff. then we brought him to the "well" in the shelter...and i left him there for a very short while...as we got ready the waterbombs...
we then told him to remove his blindfold...den whacked him wif waterbombs and i "applied" sum whipped cream on his face...think the whipped cream went bad...oOps~. in the end only, me and xx juz whacked him wif the waterbombs..while dingy, ym and connie looked. it was fun~. haha. we shld play more water bombs with more ppl! =D

after "celebration" @ his void deck, we went to westmall.
i met monz and weisheng on my way! haha. shocked~
anyway, we waited @ kfc for 1hr++ for darling janice who was terribly late. haha. while waiting, me & xx went to get "bday cake" for kel...haha. bought a cheese cake @ breadtalk, den we went uncle tidbits for "decorations" for the cake. went pizza hut to makan after janice arrived. then nick joined us. ate and talked...den we decorated the cake with the "decorations"...super full~ haha. went home after tt...

when i got home...within 5min i was out of the hse again! haha. went jp with my parents and brother. shopped till nearly 9pm...my dad and mum bought clothes and my bro got a wallet and contact lens! his volleyball coach wants him to get contact lens...lol. now feeling quite tired...but have to wait till my hair is dry...my hair got very little whipped cream on it..haha..but sumhow felt a bit yucky...so washed it...=Pp

anyway, shall think of a better idea to celebrate nick's bday~. he's like jealous...lol.
the macdonalds idea seems pretty good..hmm...maybe...=P

all the photos for sunday and today...HERE

are we all suckers for looks? maybe.
but looks aren't forever.
we'll all get old and ugly.
don't we?

a joke it wasn't.
sad it is.

perhaps he has his reasons for holding on.
hope he will overcome it.
and revert back to the person i remembered him to be.

PROM. 30th december 2005
in short. an event of taking photos and eatting. although it's like more about the former.
went to my aunt's hse for makeup and hair. tho, she ain't a pro, i would say, an okay job.

wore a dress plus not-so-high-heels. haha. feels awkward...i so prefer wearing pants, like sharon. but i don't have her smart look yar! i think i looked decent.

sat with the odacians. when the food came, we ate. then we went off after every dish to take photos with class, friends and teachers. our table was the most empty one i guess. lol.

prom king was yihao, prom queen was valerie. they each had to do sth that is embarassing that they mentioned.
yihao's was to dance with a teacher on stage. he danced with miss loon. actually, miss loon just stood there, while yihao "danced".
valerie's one was to do the chicken dance. in the end, everyone had to do the chicken dance....
during orientation, we did chicken dance...during our prom, we did it again. you shi you zhong?

after the crowning of the prom king and queen, it was video from the CTs to students...i want that video!!! i think it's nicer than the one in the vcd given.

haha. lol. i sound like unexcited about the prom. coz, i was looking foward to POST PROM.

POST PROM.
initial plan with janice and a few others was to go pub-bing, and try to be back home by 1am.
in the end, went DXO with our class peeps. drank, didn't dance cause i paiseh and i left super early...around 1am++++ reached home 2am+++++
we reached DXO @ 1am. lol. ordered drinks, went up and out. looked at the sky. it was beautiful~. the stars...B-E-A-UTIFUL~ talked a bit, then the guys decided to play games. ZHONG JI MI MA..hehez.
i was the gamemaster for zhong ji mi ma(fyi, i like being the gamemaster and more imptly, i cannot have any smell of alcohol on me, or else, i've to say sayOnaRa to this world)
the "punishment" was the complimentary drinks...vodkas sprite, vodka orange etc..
the winner was chechang when i was the gamemaster still, coz he drank the most. got more than his money worth?! haha.
me left early wif xx and dingy...wanted to like stay longer, but family orders.
stay and die! leave and "longevity" will be urs! lame lame lame...

reached home and removed my makeup. bathe and slept.

felt handicap during prom. coz i didn't have my "paparazzi" camera with me. boO! so, have to ask people for prom photos. send me prom photos~....=X

at the meantime, see the prom photos under "::photos++" dropdown on the left...under "tina@shutterfly"

shall stop here. happy new year! lol.
