busy busy

Been so busy with so many stuff recently.. There's just endless things to do: quiz, assignments, projects (hrm!!), and others. Sianz. I want a breather and just relax like 1st three years lol.. Not getting enuff sleep these few days; been sleeping only 4-5 hrs daily.. Haiz..

Just came back from drumzout meeting. This isn't an official meeting; just impromptu 1, just to get to know each other. Then after that, we went city harvest for supper, and now I'm back.

I wanna play some nice games, like the upcoming Fallout 3!! It's coming out on 28th oct, and I will almost definitely get it and play throughout the december holidays. I played fallout and fallout 2 before, a couple of times in fact. It's such a good game, it's the best game series in my life haha. Then there is Diablo 3 coming up, and though there isn't any official release date, but I'm guessing it will be either next year last quarter, or early 2010 ba haha. Such superbly designed graphics! I used to play this so much in my sec sch days, I won't give this a miss for sure haha. But I'm gonna need either a spanking new and fast pc, or a good graphics card before I can play this.. My pc's kinda old liao haha..

Sian, tmr got hrm meeting again. Every weekend also must meet. Sighz.

oh my gosh!

wa wa wa! I have not updated my bloggie for soooo long!! Die le haha. Sighz, been so busy lately ba.. I also not sure what to write, or how to begin now lol..

Hmmm, let's start from where I last left off =) My IA was pretty good. Learnt abit about web programming, but it's still so little, I think I'm a complete noob at web designing sighz. In any case, my sup n fellow colleagues treated me to northpoint's sakae sushi as a farewell lunch.. So good sia haha.. It was a pretty ex lunch, about $90 for 4 people. But of course I didn't pay lol. But I also got a chocolate gift from taka for my sup haha. And, last but not least, I'm glad I got A- for my IA haha. Wo0t!

Then after that, it was juz a busy week of preparing for my DrumZout event haha. Got so much stuff to settle, and to coordinate. Then came a crushing moment: my dad who had fever for a week, still didn't feel better after that previous week, and had difficulty breathing, and finally, I advised him to be hospitalized on a particular sunday, the sunday just before DrumZout. The diagnosis was that he had pneumonia, and on the 2nd day he was admitted, the nurse called and informed us that he had a severe case of pneumonia, and will be changed to icu if the condition doesn't improve over the next few days. We had originally thought it was dengue fever, but it wasn't. It must be due to his smoking!!! In any case, my mum was veri worried, and took about 2 weeks off, to visit him and accompany him everyday in hospital. Whenever my dad breathe, you could hear the very very noisy hissing watery sound emitting from his chest. He looked so weak and frail. I had to go visit my dad with my mum everyday as well, so that my mum wouldn't be so lonely; she needed the support from me and my bro. I had no choice, but to inform my committee that I might not be able to make it for drumzout, n might haf to quit, cos I don't haf that much time to commit with my dad still in hospital. But luckily, the more major stuff had been completed, and was left w a bit of loose details only.

After a few days, my dad condition improved, and I was relieved. In the end, I went for DrumZout yay haha. I was there on saturday night, for the setting up of the stage n other stuff. Then, jy n gincent n me stayed overnight to look after the stuff, n I went home to change a bathe on sunday morning about 7am. DrumZout was a great success eventually, with the immensely exciting atmosphere, n the overly enthusiastic crowd! Haha.

My dad was eventually discharged from hospital after about 8 days. I then had to go for reservist on thursday. We got to book out on fri night, so good haha. Then the following monday, it was outfield for us, which lasted 3 days 2 nights haha. And on thurs evening, we got to book out to go home and keep our belongings, but I didn't go home; instead I took a cab to ntu medical centre, to get an endorsement for change of halls haha. Stupid hall office give me hall 11, sooooooo sucky. The doctor was veri anal about it, n only after some twisting of words n persuasion by me, did he reluctantly help me w it. Then on fri, after my reservist had ended, I took a cab again back to ntu to submit my medical memo to the 2 offices. And, the next day (saturday), I flew off to thailand for my wonderful trip!

Wow, when I arrived at the airport, we first took buses to kanchanaburi, n had a late meal there, before settling down in a guest house. It only costs 150B per night, which translates to only about $6 per night haha. We went to the erawan waterfalls, open safari zoo, floating market, hellfire museum, death railway, jeath war museum, etc, in kanchanaburi. Then we went to ayutthaya, whereby we visited temples mainly. And then it was sukhothai, which were also temples. Next up was chiang mai, whereby we did half hr of elephant riding, whitewater rafting, n bamboo rafting. Wow, it was fun haha. We also walked the night market over there.. So interesting sia haha. Afterwards, we went to Pai, in mae hong son, which was high up in the hills. It was different from the rest of thailand, in the sense that it was much cooler, n it's so touristy that there are probably more Caucasians than locals lol. Previously, we were biking around the different states, getting much exercise. Now in Pai, we rented an automatic motorbike, which was way cooler haha. Over at Pai, the most interesting has got to be the natural hot spring, which was really so hot you can see the mist! Haha.. There was also a canyon there too. Finally, we went back down to Bangkok, whereby we visited the grand palace n emerald buddha foc, cos we acted as if we were locals instead of tourists haha! That place was really grand, with sooooo many tourists. We went to patpong night market, silom night market, platinum shopping centre, ma boon krong shopping centre, and chat tu chak market. We also went to a snake farm, and watched 2 movies haha. The food over in thailand was also pretty nice too! And not forgetting cheap haha.. After the trip, I spent quite some time uploading the nice pics into facebook lol..

After the trip, it was FOC again for me haha. This time, I am attached to Thyra, thereby the 4 gls were all from the previous year's pollia lol! It was another fun week of FOC for me again, and also the last, as this was my final yr le =( After the foc, I had a movie outing w them, whereby we watched The Mummy at JP. Then, I also had a JC class gathering at vivo's Modesto's before school opened. I moved into hall on the friday before sch started, and yay, i got what i wanted! haha.

Now that sch has started, its sooo busy for me.. with sooo many projects! fyp, hrm, prof comm, web application design, computer security assignment, and finally driving lessons. Sighz..

Never mind, things will work out eventually haha ;p

My Surprise!

Yesterday morning, I woke up as usual at 7am for my boring work. When I went into the kitchen, I saw my belated bdae letter on the table. I quickly took it into my room, and after rise and shine, I opened up the letter with eager excitement.

Voila! Apart from a handmade letter, there are 2 cross stitches! 1 is a squarish teddybear holding a big red heart, and another is a rectangular bookmark with my name and date on it. I felt so happy. No words can describe that feeling =) I then took it to work to admire it every now and then haha.

After work ytd, I had a movie appointment to watch Forbidden Kingdom. Calvin was late; he had something at work cropping up last minute. JJ came at 7.20pm. I had thought it would be awkward as we were still relatively strangers, but turns out that JJ was quite friendly and we kinda hit it off quite well and good. Then calvin finally came at around 7.40pm, and we got into the cinema at 7.50pm. Luckily the show hadn't started yet.

Wa, it was a very lame, but still fairly entertaining show haha. After the movie, calvin rushed back to work, while the 2 of us went home. Sian, never had dinner yet, went back to eat myself haha.

Today is another boring day at work again, which is why I can't think of better things to do than to blog haha. Soo super sian.

updates

sianz, i've finished my IA project already. now nothing to do.. boring.. going to ask my sup see got some things to do anot, else really sianz.

and i went with cal for a bbq last fri. his landlord's dog bdae party haha. there were some other dogs present as well. got a big and super friendly golden retriever haha. his landlord's a cocker spaniel. we then watched andy lau's new show, 3 kingdoms on saturday. i won't say its a very superb show, but still not bad. maggie Q looks so evil and fierce in the movie haha.

also been doing some of my cca stuff. argh, sometimes really headache lor.. haha. tmr going meet LIME magazine people for some kind of partnership. hope to watch forbiddenkingdom on wed, i think it's gonna be nice haha.

also went sls buy a 1gb toshiba thumbdrive for only $11. now all these thumbdrives and memorycards are getting cheaper and cheaper. i'm buying it cos my dad wants a thumbdrive with mp3 so that he can listen in his new taxi's hifi system haha.

crisis core

I'm currently playing ff7 crisis core on my psp. great game! Haha. and the cgi scenes are beautiful too! take a look at this scene, a fight between sephiroth angeal and genesis. so cool! all 3 of them are SOLDIER 1st Class, on same ranking. But sephiroth is sooo much stronger than the 2 of them. Angeal is the good guy, the main character's mentor. Genesis is the bad guy from the start. Sephiroth is a good guy initially, then went mad and became a 'bad' guy. He's the bad guy also in FF7, a 10 yo game. I didn't expect Sephiroth to be so strong haha. What a great fight!

Sorry for not updating for soo long haha. Hmm, let me recall what had happened. That day so paiseh, watched The Spiderwick Chronicles with k, then we went to Marina South, wanting to take bus to eat at the steamboat places there, but the bus driver told us that that place is demolished for a few months le. Lol. We didn't know sia haha. I know it will be demolished, but didn't know it's done already haha. Then we went to Bugis to eat at the Chong Qing steamboat lol. I liked the mushrooms and fish! Heee. Anyway spiderwick is a nice fairytale movie, I liked it. Seems that I liked all the fairytales haha.

And I also bought psp! Wahahaha. Been thinking about it since last year, but the feeling was on and off. Finally bought it. Now, I can look forward to playing it after my boring work. Currently playing FF7 Crisis Core. Nice game! Haha. I also downloaded and bought many games, those ISO games. Got about 50 inside my collection now haha. Cant finish playing de lol.

And so, another weekend has gone past. It is during IA period, that weekends to me, seem to pass so fast. Suddenly, it's all gone, and back to work again, whereby I shall not have enough sleep all the time.

I spent my weekend writing my logbook, playing games, going to the gym, going running, and using the computer and webcamming. In fact, I just ran finished, and had supper. Weekends just fly past so fast. How I wish I could have much more time for weekends.

I'm going to ITfair next week to get a 2.5" HDD, to backup all my files, music, videos, and pictures. And am also going to watch some movies, 10,000 BC among them, though I'm not sure when to watch it yet.

I feel sleepy now.

Tada

l.0.v.e.

If I had to live my life without you near me
The days would all be empty
The nights would seem so long
With you I see forever Oh so clearly
I might have been in love before
But it never felt this strong
Our dreams are young and we both know
They'll take us where we want to go
Hold me now
Touch me now
I don't want to live without you

Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought to know by now
how much I love you
One thing you can be sure of
I'll never ask for more than your love
Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought to know by now
how much I love you
The world may change my whole life through but
Nothing's gonna change my love for you


If the road ahead is not so easy
Our love will lead the way for us
Like a guiding star
I'll be there for you
If you should need me
You don't have to change a thing
I love you just the way you are
So come with me and share the view
I'll help you see forever too
Hold me now
Touch me now
I don't want to live without you

chinese new year

Today's the 1st day of cny. But I dont feel too happy. Abit sianz in fact. Every year's cny seems to be getting more and more boring with the years. Am now currently on ia, but very slack also. Just need to create a development server, and I haven done anything since start of ia. Still slacking haha. Recently read the news about edison chen and gilian chung and cecilia cheung scandals. I think edison is so screwed, he has ruined the lives and showbiz careers of the girls. Not only that, his own career is also ruined. Haiz. I think the person who distributed the pics are really evil. He/she shouldnt have done that. Anyway dont really feel like posting much nowadays. No mood also. Been typing lots of emails lately, so no need for blog le haha.

K lar, wish all my friends happy new year and a wonderful year ahead.
