Speaking abt the kitch in my previous entry, its now cured, all thanks to 6 hrs of kboxing yest with hs n xw. Singing in a small grp makes it so much less tiring to wait for ur song to play hah. We sang from like 4 plus to 10 plus, tho we were supposed to stop at 10. And before that we had hc's bdae treat at Kuishinbo, which was really gd btw. Chawanmushi, ebi tempuras, sashimi, teppanyaki, soft shell crab, jap desserts. I am so gonna get fat. Plus no hiphop lessons this wk to burn it off bleah, cos our instructor's overseas. Gd thing we skipped dinner cos of ktv. We had so much time to sing that the girls started to spam Farenheit songs to watch the cuties in the MTVs. o_O Even Jing Chen Wu n Edison Chen got chosen. And no they dunno how to sing their songs lol. But is was seriously fun la, hah.

Gah i cun go for FASS camp due to work. The new temp seems fine, albeit slow in completing work. I cun help but feel a lil worried leaving my position in someone else's hands when im only given 1 wk to teach her my entire jobscope, which is quite a big list of things to do. I guess after 4 mths ive begun to have a bit of attachment to my post in the coy, n the ppl arnd me, and the responsibilities im facing. Earlier my colleagues were all wishing i could stay, but there was really no way i could. Ppl arnd you inevitably come n go i guess, but ill make an effort to keep in touch wif them, probably even go back to help out if i have spare time in the hols. IF they want me that is haha.

Exposure to worklife was gd. If only bosses can be less irritating. And there could be more ppl of my age haha. Ive been hearing enuf best grocery deals n secret ingredients in recipes la. At least now i can better relate to my mum in that aspect, haha.


Oh, on a side note, Jordin Spark's 'this is my now' is a really nice song. She's the winner of this yr's american idol fyi.

Words cun express how happy i am. In fact, it comes tgr with mixed feelings of shock, confusion and a sense of relief. 2/3 days ago, i went online to check the status of my appeal, and i was kinda downhearted when i saw my appeal being rejected. I even went in twice to check, n was disappointed yet again. But i was prepared to accept computing, n move forward with an open minded, willing n ready to meet the challenges i have in front of me. If it is His will, then im sure greater things are sure to come. Then just yest, after hiphop lessons, which btw made my lower back, left thigh n neck muscles hurt rite now, i found i had 4 missed calls from home. So i called n my mum nagged at why i nvcr picked up the phone, n then told me i got into FASS. It took a while to sink in. Like WoaH, seriously serious seriousness. God really has His ways in making miracles n answering ur prayers. Praise the Lord, really.

So to all those whom i said abt me doin computing, im in FASS! Yay, no more worrying abt difficult programming n Java n html. So now ill nvr figure out how come i can only save drafts n not post on my desktop, n how i cun seem to add borders on my blogpics. Haha, not tt im complaining.

Oh then yest after hiphop we went to NUS graduate society to *attempt* to sing KTV for free. Turns out we only sang 4 songs, n spent 2 hrs waiting for the other tables to be done with their songs instead. Anw the place allows you to sing for free, just that u dun get ur private rm unless you book way in advance, n u have to take turns btw the tables, where each table only gets 2 songs. Plus if ur an NUS alumni member wif some special card, u get to sing 4 songs. So there was a whole grp of alumni members who are supposedly regulars who frequent the place, at the table beside us, thats why it took so long b4 we could sing. So i still have the kitch (karaoke-itch), n i nid to cure it soon before i start singing out loud like some pseudo wannabe psycho superstar on the bus while listening to my mp3 player. And dancing too, lol.

And speaking abt alumni, i just came back from another alumni gathering, this time a bbq at cheryl sim's place. With a whole big bag of uncooked stuff. I think it squared off the amt i paid for the bbq la, hah. And the place was a pain to find la. Not to mention i took the wrong bus, for some reason. But it was a really yummy bbq, all thanks to cheryl's mum n huever else marinated the food. The stingrays, the cauliflower wif campbell soup, the mushroom with cheddar cheese n campbell's, all were the super highlights of the nite man. Once come out ppl will snatch for it kind. Like come crazy 1for1 sale or smth haha. Esp the mushrooms la, there were only 9 of them. Mmm delicious.

Ok no photos from the BBQ cos no one sent me yet. So no stingray or chicken wings to drool at for this entry, sorry.

And Praise the Lord, again. My prayers are answered. =)

Another busy week. My life seems to fall quite nicely into place these days, without having me do much planning or organising. I like how He makes it all so smooth flowing and relaxing for me heh. Let's see, oh i went to try turkish food for the first time. The dessert was awesomelicious man, but the main course we had was vegetarian, so its too healthy to judge if its gd or bad. Hah.

Then on thurs i took a break from work to do the things i like, which is pretty much nth hah. No la, i did play squash n swim in the morn, following by casual swimming, aka after 2-3 laps we start talking crap n bathe in the sun. Oh and that nite we went to this super uber posh lobby bar place arnd bugis, called Divine Society. Like woah~ even the name is so high class. There was a proper dresscode for that place, n some of us happened to be in slippers n berms, so we had quite some difficulty trying to persuade the guy to let us in. Even flashing your platinum card wun help, btw. Haha n no im not the one wif that card. I tell you, the architecture of that place is fantastic, and v grand. Think moulin rouge hall with antique accessorizing.

Oh the main highlight of the week would be hiphop class. I joined together wif the choir juniors, and i must say i had a smacking gd time. Yea smackthat. Now everytime i hear a groovy tune i'll feel like jiving to its rhythm la! Bad, i might just subconsciously embarrass myself in public. And right now im aching all over like some old man, but that means im getting fitter by the day haha. Paying money to learn to be cool n hip, have fun, and get a six-pack all at the same time, wow tts so worth it. Haha.

And Fantastic 4 isnt that fantastic after all. But action scenes arent too bad la, a lil too short imo. Ended in less than 1.5hrs la. Jessica Alba doesnt look as hot as the first movie, too. Girls would probably dig human torch n silver surfer tho. Just rmb to wipe the drool off ur mouth before the credits roll n the lights turn back on ;P.

All in all, a great weekend. Tho there are still some regrets. Sigh.
I see another busy week ahead. I love to be naturally occupied with things =).

Last wk's highlight: Alumni outing at sentosa. Wad else do i nid to say man, we are a fun n happening bunch of old fogies haha. Ok but i reached like super late, thus i wasnt included in the picnic photo =(


So everyone's supposed to bring some food, either handmade or bought, there to share wif the rest. So bottomline there was ALOT of food, enuf to have leftovers to play 'guess the number' (aka zhong ji mi ma) wif. By the end of the day there was still sandwiches, cupcakes, donuts n tidbits left. Oh and we used the donuts for decorations in our pics lol. And i finally had a chance to wear my shades i bought during GSS, without looking like a poser, haha.

O for Oh My Goodness This Pic Is Hot. Haha.


And O for Oh This Pic Is Hotter.

And it was timmo's n michael's bdae that very same day! So cheryl bought him a green tea bdae cake which made the strawberries on top seem mouldy cos of the green tea flour haha. The cake was delicious anw. And we wrote him a card too. Aww so sweet of us huh. And so apt of him to inform us thru mail that day was his special day haha. Sadly, michael didnt n we nearly missed him out.

Tried and failed miserably at volleyball, switched to captain's ball which we got tired after 2 short rounds. Old fogies like us cun take strenuous exercise i tell ya. Then we played the games we would play during orientation, like polar bear n didididiu. Ok mature readers dun get disgusted. So we stayed and played till sunset, had some cam-whoring session, then went to change.

One Big happy family. Aww~


My batch + our senior seniors. Cun tell they look older rite?! Hee.

Then had dinner at vivo. Super irritating to find a restaurant without a long queue on Fridays la. Finally decided on white dog cafe, and ate pasta. And no, white dog cafe serves neither white-ish food nor dogs. The pasta was not bad i must say.

Had another round of games at the vivo rooftop, preventing the couples there from getting into the mood without our loud shrieks and excited screams hah. And finished off the rest of the food as penalties for huever loses. I suck at orientation games i tell u. And ppl sabo me half the time. o_O.

Looking forward to the next alumni outing. This is all an evil ploy to get me to go for carolling at the end of the year i tell ya. I can so foresee me singing again. And i said choir's so not for me. Guess ill have to take that back, soon.

Cheryl's BBQ, coming soon at a chalet near you.

Lotsa stuff happening this wk, with the highlight being Cantabile on Vesak Day, the day where our many days of practice finally pay off when we perform on the Victoria Theatre stage and show the audience that a choir alumni is alive n kicking major ass. Okkk, we din manage to steal the entire show, NJChoir was still the main winners that day, but we did sing quite well, so the ppl hu watched say. Either that or they're just nice hah. Dun say im sappy or emo, but i guess ill miss the company of the alumni ppl. Gosh i cun believe im saying this, i hope hc doesnt read this n use it on me to join carolling hah. But really, tho it was just a short time, every meetup n after-choir supper was truly enjoyable. Catching up wif the seniors, hearing their words of wisdom, singing tgr n having fun w my clique frens, being all hippy again wif the juniors, being spastic n lame, its like JC all over again. How i miss the old times.

Then there was my appeal on wed. NUS is so damn freaking huge la. I was in the sun going around in circles trying to find the library my fren was at, while waiting for another fren to go to the office tgr, since he had stuff to settle too. I spent quite along time in the office, writing an appeal letter, appealing online, and talking to the nice ppl there. They really made me feel alot better, and mayb even more assured. Well im still keeping my fingers crossed.

Went running yest, n today my legs hurt. My stamina is like crap now, n i can barely pass my pull ups. I fear for my IPPT n RT, oh no. Been skipping meals here n there recently cos of choir and the immense workload at work, even had gastric pain on wed nite, which i never ever get.

Church was good today. Have u been running away or hiding from something u didnt want to face? Reflection time.
