Thursday, 29 May

Wow! as I was typing the date above, I noticed that the month of May passes so quickly while celebrating lots of people's birthday. I hereby wishing all the May babies a happy birthday again.

School wasn't nice and hence I don't want to talk about it. Left school around 1pm and went off to Dobby Ghaut to meet Tb and Mk. As usual, they were late again with each of them blaming each other for the lateness. While waiting for them, I took a really erotic photo of a couple having intimate actions.



Ya, they were kissing infront of me but I didn't managed to take the photo of it. What is more interesting is that the girl smack the guy's buttock as a way to bid goodbye. The smacking of buttock was a loud slap! Somehow from the photo, it seems like the girl is taller than the guy.

So we headed to PS for lunch and to shop around for gift to my sis. We were also looking out for wallets but couldn't find any. We were really hungry and we ate at kopitiam. These few days, I had been eating western food regularly. Below was yet another plate of collections in my stomach.



After lunch, we went meridien for Dota session. We play until 10pm+ and we eat dinner together before boarding MRT. We were very tired after the day and we were like jelly with wobbling arms and legs. I cab home from JE and it was F***ing $6 over a short distance. All thank to the Midnight charge and my tiredness or else I wouldn't have taken the taxi.

Today

Learn Flash Macromedia 8 in school and it was really fun. I was happily applying my skills at paint into Flash whereby designing the animated pictures that I drew. The pictures was able to move according to a predestined path that I wanted it to move.

After school, we met at W1 infront of the library. There were Sophia, Yuenky, Sherman, Marcus and me. Teresa can't make it because she was helping out with her friend's marriage thingy. She promised to treat Lester to a Mcdonald treat which was rather rare. Ya, you know? the student meal sort?

Although the people who are going became lesser, we were determined to go anyway. It marks the last day of school as well as the celebration for Lester's 'beearly' birthday. *Force myself to repeat many times* HAPPY BIRTHDAY LESTER!!!



Lester: I know you super happy right? This is your first time having your birthday celebrated by E35D. Your birthday always during the holidays and always get neglected right? Fear not, we are 'made of win' and we celebrated your birthday early in advance!

We actually wanted to go geylang for their Frog leg's porridge and durians. However, we change the venue to Esplanade and Singapore Flyers due to convenience sake. It's also the birthday boy's choice because he was the main dish of the day.

We took the train from Woodlands to City Hall while meeting Lester along the way. When we finally reach City Hall, I was tired from all the standings and laughing. I hope we can quickly reach the Singapore Flyer to have our dinner.

We walked pass Esplanade and went to Singapore Flyer to have Popeyes there. Lester believed that Popeyes had ships and he was so excited to meet popeyes the sailorman there.



Popeyes means eyes popping out.





That's what we gave Lester for his birthday present. He can order anything and we'll pay for his orders. Luckily, he didn't ordered alot and that saves us money, Teehehe. I thought the food was good and the price was reasonable. It sorts of remind me of KFC when we first step into popeyes with the strong fried chicken smell. However, the idea of popeyes can really attract us to have a look or taste at it.

After eating, we took photos of the observatory wheels. We were capturing the different colours that keep changing on the wheels.

After that we went to Kenko, the fish spa. Yuenky, Sophia, Sherman and me decides to play with the fish and let them bite off our dead cells. We were at first reluctant but couldn't resist the temptation of trying something so fun. As quoted from Sherman(20:21:49) "We are like paying to get pleasures, quite worth it..."



We took the 15 mins session and cost $19++. I had done it once before and this is the second time I'll be doing it but the sensation is still as wonderful as before. I was still excited when I put in my legs and yet again, receives the attention from the fishes.

WARNING*** DO NOT BRING SHERMAN ALONG FOR FISH SPA



Look! this is sherman's feet and look at how much fishes is attracted to his feet? Almost the full tank of fishes is feeding on it lah~ I tried to extend my feet over to get some fishes but they stayed closely to his feet. When asked about the reason why all the fishes are attracted to his feet, his answer was "because my leg handsome"

-_- I can make this face one thousand times until my face cramp. How can a leg be handsome to the fishes?

While on the other leg, which is opposite me and Sherman was Sophia and Yuenky. Sophia was like making alot of noise (as usual) and yuenky was wasting 2mins of her time refusing to put her legs in, fearing that the fishes will eat up the legs.





After awhile when they are away from their comfort zone



Yuenky's feet. The no business feet... (only 1 fish passes by)

I guess all of them enjoyed themselves during the fish spa as their face shows. We had some plans of coming back every one month or so because of the shiokness. We wanted to try the shoulder massage but guess we didn't have the time to do it.

After fish spa, we went up to the roof top of Esplanade for photo taking session. We are sure we had taken many photos without anyone's help. Although some of the photos might be blur, the fond memories of snatching a place in the views of the result's photos are really fun. The lightings, angles and blockages were irritating but we experience it using trial and error method to get the correct photo.



From left to right: Sherman, Marcus, Yuenky, Lester, Sophia and me!



Abit blurry but I like the expression on the faces...





This pictures shows that some people are so natural at making stupid faces







Whose leg is it at the top left hand side of the photo? Spooky. And don't act cool please? (Sherman and Lester)



Sophia and Yuenky



Lester and Sophia



Yuenky and me



Yuenky and lester

There were loads of other photos but due to the blur-ness and unglam, I think it's better not to show them. After that we went seperate ways and I went home together with Marcus.

To go or not to go?

Don't feel like going school tomorrow because I want to work.
It is especially so when I had a whole day out today and it makes going to school tomorrow moody.
Thursday is like the best day to not go to school because Friday I'll be having UT and hence I cannot skip.
School is ending in 2 days time and I can take a rest.
There will be a DA/DP talk tomorrow and if I don't go, I'll miss out.
Just read the comments for my daily grade, it isn't positive for tomorrow's module.

Above are the lists of things that acts as the push and pull factors of whether to go or not to go school. I had been a very good boy for only missing 2 days out of 7 weeks of school. At most, I will just leave after my talk and that's it.

Today

There is no school today but I still had to wake up at 8am. Give a morning call to Tb after my bath who accompany me to collect my passport. (Thx Tb) Meet him at about 9:30am and we headed to lavender. Luckily it didn't take a long time. In fact, I think they had speed up the process of passport collection. It took me 20mins to get the passport since I arrived earlier.



There is one different between the old and new passport. It adds/change a new hard cover page for your identity. It looks like your NRIC just that it is bigger in size. I also notice that the Passport number is no longer your NRIC number. It became two different number and makes life difficult. Well, don't take other's passport for own use because it's so difficult to forge now.

After collected passport, we went beach Rd or bridge Rd to eat. It sounds the same and located very near. Wonder how people differentiate it. We managed to pass by a building or flat that is very tall. (I counted it and it was 33 storeys!)



Sorry, very 'sua ku' but it looks like Twin tower because there is a bridge connecting the 2 buildings which acts like a crossover for convenience sake. I also heard that you can only take the lift up to the place where there is a bridge and you need to cross over to another building or flat to continue going up. There is no other way except this to get to the levels above the bridge or so, I heard.

I can already feel the pressure that those who are living the highest level, let say 33 storey? I had tried taking lifts up to 25 storey and above and I could already feel the uneasiness in the ears. Serious, it's really scary up there if I were to live at those.

Let's the bring the topic back to eating instead as I am really freaked out. I kept imagining neighbours throwing SOFA down from the living room window from 25 floor! I ate nasi lemak for breakfast and it's so cheap. $2.20 for 4 types of vegetables and meats. The auntie thought that I was a foreigner and kept introducing the combination to her $2.20 types of food.

After that, went Tb's house. Before going to his house, went Giant to buy tibits. We played till 3pm and went JP to meet my sis. We bought the tickets to watch The Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian.



The movie really had to depend on personal's liking. I, personally thinks it's nice because I really like the centaurs, magnataurs, dwarfs and other creatures in the movie. Besides, for Narnia, you always had to watch it in theatres or else you can never view the actions or scenes clearly. Sometimes when it is at the dark or night scene, you barely see anything if you were to watch it using pirated CDs.

Hope that tomorrow will be a fine day and it will fast forward.

A short one...

Tomorrow will be a short break for me. I suddenly feel like I haven't had any breaks for a long time. Although the present is even carefree than the past, I find myself getting more tired these days. Maybe as age increase, the tendency to play and sleep late became impossible at times.

A sad news to announce. Yesterday sis called and said Timothy was overweight. I know, all the people might be thinking that babies are supposed to be fat. It's okay to be overweight. They must look fat in order to be classified as cute. Well, I am not sure but if it does became dangerous because of obesity for babies, (which seems like all the babies are fat) then I am lost of words.



A fat double chin!

Well, tomorrow will be collecting passport. The passport just reminded me of the Genting outings which I am not eager to speak of. But a passport just need to be collected sooner or later. To think I was the only one in the world making passport, I wouldn't have expected the appointment for collection of passport to be full!

Like how difficult can it be? to get ready the passport for us to collect and just walk off? What else must they do to confirm whether you are the rightful owner of the passport? If all else fail, I might just need to slam the birth cert, IC or previous passport all lump together on the face.

But what about after collecting passport? What can I do at lavender? Ok I will leave it as that and continue my other ranting.

Recently tried the Black sesame soya bean and it was nice. For some reasons, I loves weird drinks/foods and the people out there are all out against me. Some common replies I get are "Where got nice?", "F***, so horrible, the taste" , "bluff people one sia". Ya I tio all of these and I still remain positive. I didn't change my preferences because these people say it is not nice.

Anyway, the colour of the drink is like cement colour.



For some reasons, as I was typing this, I got excited because I suddenly remembered that I just need to make past 3 more days and I will get my 2 weeks holiday. Isn't it great or great?

On the other hand, I think the holiday are supposed to be doing my Project and at least do 70% of it. Judging from my laziness and unwilling to give in, I think the project will be done at last minute time and content wise, isn't exciting and made the one marking it, sleeps...

Do you enjoy doing exercise in the morning?
Have you had a jog in the park?
Have you ever do warm-up during your start of jogging?
Did you do the warm up in public or at home when you are preparing to jog?
Did you see many aunties and uncles doing Tai ji and tuning in to some weird sounding old music?
Or aunties playing with bright red or pink fans or even swords?
Or or, line dance like wearing some weird costumes?

NA! your favourites...



I hate myself for not being able to take the full picture of it. He was doing some spiritual exercise and beside him was a pathetic followers who always seen around him. Before they begin their ritual, he will placed a sign infront of them for whoever who is interested to look at (Which nobody does anyway). The sign is also a license sort of thing to certify that he can do exercise there.

By the way, this photo is taken at void deck which means they are doing exercise at void deck. I couldn't understand why they didn't do it at the park which is nearby. Maybe they doing 'Fa lun gong'? haha!

Saturday, 24 May

Happy Belated birthday to two of my very good friends! Jin Jin and ShiYing. Both of their birthday falls on the 23rd of may. Sorry I didn't get any presents for you all because I am broke. But hope that both of you had a good birthday, be it with your family, friends or love ones...

25th of May sees the birthday of my elder sis. I think this birthday is the most significant for her because it's like when she is 21, she is expecting Timothy. At 22, Timothy is near to 2 months old. Last year of birthday, she is still a someone but now, she is a mother and has her own story to tell. Even like tips to tell her mother about how to take care of baby. How fast time flies.

Well for Saturday, I met Tb at JE, 7:15pm. Took a cab there because I thought my ez-link card is empty. The distance is so near that the meter only skip 2 times. The total is $3.40. $3 being the starting value and increment of $0.20 because it is peak hours.

Anyway, Hx will be late and we went to the coffee shop to have Aston's Speciality again! When we ordered our food, Hx came. To think about it, I felt that I am a robot or so. My routine is always same recently and follows a pattern. I kept eating Aston's Speciality at coffee shops and going to Kbox on Wednesday. Even my school's life is like that, same routine.

But I had the Black Pepper Grill fish instead, which is exceptional.



The side dish is Baked Potato covered with BUTTER! French fries is a must have because it's really nice. This fish is very smooth and soft. The Black pepper is not very overwhelming which I like because some other places just happily applied the whole bottle of it and call it a day.

After Aston's, we went IMM and bought a Titus watch for her. Forgotten to take photos! How could I? Anyway, after the watch, that is when I became broke. The watch is shared between 4 people being me, My mum, Hx and Mk. Although Mk still haven't confirm with us about whether is he sharing or not. (Please! share with us!)

After buying, we quickly went to my house for retreat. We wrote some texts on the covers itself and hid the present till it is 12mn. My sis and her husband came to my house at 10pm+ and we played dai dee. Before that, they went to Singapore flyers and Fish Spa. However, my sis reviews to the Singapore flyers wasn't that good.

At 12:05mn, (We forget the Time lol) we asked her to go to my other room to retrieve a bag. She complained that she is being a maid for doing so. She took the bag and seems happy it. Well, that's birthday and happy birthday!

On the bad side, we totally forgotten about Timothy? Ok here's some photos to commemorate his arrival at my house on Saturday!



Sleeping



Ok, getting ready for a workout.



The hand, The muscles and The Armpits



Opps, your sleeves drop...



LOL. He looked at me and cry!



I put him on my bed and I am nervous that he might vomit onto my bed.







Hi, Kon and Tim!

I call him to smile but he cried...

Highlights: Great Singapore Sales starts today!!!

Random points aside. The girls are all busy noting down their 'wants' list while the guys are busy avoiding the girls. Find some place like Egypt to hide where there are pyramids.

Ok! class was pretty fun today! We are given using the school's Canon EOS D350 camera. We are to take pictures and experiment with the functions and modes. Some examples of modes includes AV, TV and M. There are also Timer, ISO, shutters and Auto focus. Well that is all I can remember because I kept playing with the camera to take pictures of friends and not related to work.

I took like 110, (21+43+46) pictures altogether ok? If you want to be precise, I haven't counted those that I deleted. There are also some, that were testing shots. Overall I had a load of fun just taking pictures. I pick up things along the way too!

1st break pictures...



I focus on the first bottle of ketchup and tried to create the illusions that makes the behind bottles look blur.



Our previous science facilitator also joins in the fun!



This is what we eat during 1st break out.



Earthworm, centipede, millipede or worms... Choose one



We should take pictures in the most uncomfortable position because it's the best. Maybe we can try doing hand-stand while taking a shot! That would post some difficulty.

2nd Breaks

Yea, we took even more pictures in 2nd break. We even attempted the "jump-shot" pics. I swear our face looks retarded but the photo turns out nice. And also, thank sherman for taking the photos!



My head got cut off!



This one, Teresa's hair very nice.



This one is sooo funny! I was falling down from sky, Yuenky was playing skipping ropes and Teresa was carrying a heavy box.



Edited



This one totally CMI. I was showing off armpits and Teresa was acting Hip hop by doing the "yo yo yo" sign. Yuenky stills continued skipping.



erm... Constipation?



Finally done. At least all of us jump at the same time and were about the same distance away from the ground. (Just that my shirt flew up abit cause too 'ji dong' liao)



This were taken using Timer function. Was really hot and hence didn't adjust it properly. But as long as all of us fits into the picture, that's fine



This one was supposed to be Yuenky being the subject. (Yes, yuenky I know you are the subject. No need keep staring at the cam)

Sherman and Teresa was supposed to be the passerbys but they peek at the corner of the eye! So obvious...



Lastly, We took a photo together with the help of another person.

After school, went to meet Tb and Hx at JEC. They were late like 30mins and this must be because they wanted to finish a dota game before they come out. Although they didn't say, I knew it. I almost fainted because I was super hungry.

Had Aston's Speciality at Coffee shop. This time I tried the Black Pepper steak. Side dish of French fries and Potato Salad. I also requested for the Mushroom sauce which Sherman recommended. I ordered a medium done steak and you could still see a bit of blood strings coming out when I cut it. It was $10.50 and was really nice!



Then after dinner, meet up my sis and we went to watch Indiana Jones!



The movie is super nice and I will give it a 4.1/5. This is the first time I watched Indiana Jones related stuff. My mum did watch the previous movies and she said it was nice. I thought it was just some kind of adventure story of a particular someone and decides to brush it off. Luckily, I didn't or else I would have missed this great movie!

Despite the great scenes and action filled, the starting part can be quite draggy and boring. Towards the middle, the tension starts to build up as many exciting things happened! It was nice as it was a 2 hours film whereby half of it is so "actionalised" (no such word!) I love it. I will definitely catch the others series if I had the chance!
