bt aniwae had a real nice and long chat wif fiona (frm xcess nt myth).. its been so long since i last worked with her and we still can chat from heaven til hell~ hahas.. had lots of catching up to do and more gossips to hear..

Poly Life

Life in poly is starting to get better.. made more friends than the last week, guess most of the people has started to open up including me.. bt of cuz there are still some which i haven talk to, think we still need time!

study wise, hmm a week juz past.. overall the subjects are all ok bt the teachings are kinda boring at times especially macroeconomics, i wonder its the tutor n lecturer or the subject puts me to sleep.. hais.. have to try real hard to concentrate each time..

favourite module for the time-being is biz stats.. kinda interesting cuz during lectures we can do some work instead of juz sitting there and listening to the lecturers blabbering away~

found out tat i have to learn to be real independant.. the details they give aint clear enuff.. everytime i open up my tutoral notes, there will be a BIG HUH?? on top of my head.. hais.. ive to really work hard~~ =~~ isnt easy at all.. esp when i cum from a slacking ite~~ sobs sobs~

abit weird cuz suddenly im working in another shop, everyone was like huh? hw cum u are there today? and i was like.. eh.. dunno wat to say..

cuz fiona is a veri sensitive person and from wat im starting to know.. she's abit paranoid.. thing she gt psychological prob.. she's always thinks tat everyone wants to copy wat she's selling.. she dun believe tat her sales will be bad thinking tat it would be able to hit target everyday and its our fault if we cant hit.. hais.. so im abit scared helping her..

as i only noe wat a person she's like until today, i sort of regretted agreeing to help her.. hais.. tml go work still muz face her... dunno wat's her reaction gonna be for sales to be so bad on a SATURDAY! gosh.. im gonna hide in my hole (Green Petals) the whole day tml.. poor valerie has to put up with her tml.. cross fingers for the best! *i wonder if she would start hating me after this which a high possibility!*

dumb poly
Thursday, April 13, 2006

woke up early in the morning, having only 5 hours of beauty sleep cuz i need to pop down uob and dbs bank for the dumb poly admission thingy~ luckily the queue wasnt tat long, if nt dad would be nagging like mad!

rush down nyp afterwards, their staffs there really sux lor.. cuz i already submit my online application and they kept saying tat i havent confirm! sent me to the engineering block to do my confirmation again.. bt the prob is ive already done tat earlier at home and there's nothing i can click at when they ask me to confirm again~ wats more irritating was tat, there's no one there to help us with it~ dad gt so fed up tat he continue his nagging marathon! imagine me getting nagged at since i woke up til the end of the poly application thingy and its nt even my fault~

dad gt so furious, he hopped down the student recruitment center again and he &^%% at the lady.. finally she said tat maybe we juz made payment so muz wait til 12.30 then my application will be confirmed.. fugs! say so earlier la then we wont be like 2 mad person crawling up and down asking for help!

gt home.. waited til 12.30++.. check the dumb online thingy~ finally its confirm~ called nyp again to confirm with them and u noe wat the person reply me? "i think so its confirm" -.-" gt think so want ar~ if think so i dun need to call u guys and ask~

as i didnt attend their orientation today, i'd called nyp up again to ask wat time sch starts on mon.. and guess wat? they say they hadn had my record yet! so ask me to wait for them to call me back or call them on mon 8.30 to ask! wtf!!!! wat stupid sch~ so troublesome~ kaos.. ite oso nt as troublesome as them lor!! cannot take it anymore!
Poly Admission

head down nanyang today to get my enrolment package, should have gone there earlier cuz there was a queue.. although not long, bt the people seems to have thousands of enquiries to make, especially those who have parents with them..

finally was my turn, heart was pumping when i get my package, was happy and at the same time sians cuz i saw the date of commencement which is on 17 april.. kaos~ so early, haven even relax enuff yet!

everything was really in a rush, cuz i need to have my medical check-up, head down uob to make payments, do online confirmation and submit everything the next day~ so wat i did 1st was to quickly head down jurong point to get my medical check up.. and as for the rest of the stuffs, dad will be taking leave tomorrow to do them wif me bt after tat he gt meeting, so muz get everything done early in the morning~ gosh~ there goes my beauty sleep!

hais~ abit sad cuz ivy gt rejected for her application.. somehow it seems like only me who gt confirmed by the poly while my other friends are still waiting! really pray hard for them cuz whenever each of them tell me they recieve the reject letter, my heart really sink.. hais..

i really pray for all of u.. pls.. do get in!
Just another day
Wednesday, April 12, 2006

woke up early in the morning, sians didn get enuff slp cuz as usual i was out til the wee hours and today i need to accompany mummy to chinatown point as she needs to get her eyeliner tattoo removed.. as she will be given anesthetic, she worried tat she would feel giddy after tat, so i decided to go with her..

while waiting for her, i had my pedi done.. did a classic french pedi.. simple and nice las.. and most importantly its mummy who pay for it.. hahas..

had lunch and we go home after tat.. was dead tired when i reach home bt i only haf 2 hours to rest cuz i need to crawl down dearie's place, so instead of sleeping, i surf the net looking for maple syrup accessories and found out tat yahoo auction has them bt their collection is not so large as the taiwan auction.. bt of cuz i rather buy from singaporeans cuz its so troublesome to get them imported! was so in love with their accessories.. definitely going to get some of them when i get my pay check.. lols..

crawl out of my house at 5pm.. guess wat? on my way their, i recieve a call from the poly saying tat i can collect my package between 9am-5.30pm tml.. was so happy.. bt when i hang up, i was.. errr.. is nanyang or ngee ann huh? faints.. called ivy up and ask she recieved any calls bt she hadn.. keeping my fingers cross for her!!

reached dearie's place finally, had a nappie there, woke up afterwards to check the tel no. which called me earlier to see which poly its from.. bt should be from nyp la, cuz the num starts wif 6451 while np one starts wif 6461.. so i guess its from nyp.. bt aniwae, tml b4 i leave my house, shall call and cfm again..

once again, after dearie finish his stuffs, we went down dam (punch card)! form our market group and down there chit chat from ups til downs, left til right! and the guys as usual talk about bikes (wonder they ever get tired!)

finally its time to go home, dearie sent me home 1st before joining the guys at jalan kayu.. as usual he sent me to the lift.. and when...

the lady in the lift kept signalling to us to go away.. tink it should be a dog.. so we decided to walk aside.. then we heard a scary tingling sound and loud barks.. wah.. the both of us run to the back like crazy~ then suey suey the dog oso walk tat way, its a police dog lor(dunno wats the breed), it kept barking and looks as if it wants to attack us, me and dearie ran again.. was so afraid tat its owner does not have enuff strength to pull its leash! ran inside the lift and my heart was pumping like mad!

who would want to keep such a crazy dog?! especially in a hdb apartment.. no wonder its owner can only walk it during such a wierd hour.. faints..
Driving Lesson - Parallel Parking
Monday, April 10, 2006

Today's another of my driving lesson after 2 weeks.. actually i should wait til i pass my ftt before booking anymore lessons.. bt wat the heck, juz felt like driving so went for the lesson, at the same time i oso made full payment for it!

instructor taught me how to do parallel parking today, was abit complicated cuz muz turn left turn right,turn right again then turn left.. til i always mix up which turn is which... hahas.. and its abit hard to gage whether im too close to the rear poles anot.. was twice tat i banged into the front and back poles.. lols.. haiya, 1st timer wat do u expect~ bt was fun la..

my instructor even praise me, cuz there was once i did a nice parallel parking! hahas.. bt sadly only once la, cuz after tat i sucks again..

countdown 10 more days to my ftt~ cross fingers!!!
treated like a tai tai~ lols..

made an appointment today, to pop down elynn's bf place to get my hair re-coloured.. actually it was really nice of him to re-colour my hair for free.. cuz the last time, the bottom part of my hair, the colour wasnt tat obvious, so he decided to re-do it for me.. and i waited 2 months later, til my black hair came out.. hahas..

chose a different colour.. bt the difference wasnt so big from the last one, actually wanna try red, bt wasnt brave enough to experiment it.. maybe later bahs.. oh ya, i oso became elynn's model today, cuz she need to do her portfolio for her make-up schools and she need models who she can have different looks..

asked me what kind of looks i wanted.. told her tat i wanted something different.. and she came up with a "black & wht" theme..i tout tat she was givin me those audrey hepburn kinda look, whereby i would look like the 80's with bee-hived hair, eye liner on my eyes and long lashes at the tip, bt i was wrong! was really treated like a tai tai in the process, cuz her bf was there doing my hair and she doing my face, juz tat sadly there's no one to do my nails.. hahas..

the outcome of my make up sort of shocked me.. cuz i look like a demoness.. told elynn tat she can find me a leopard suit and i would look like those "human-eating jungle woman" bt i was really satisfied with it too.. cuz although exaggerating, it was fantastic.. cuz i really look different..

would upload my jungle woman pics when she send them to me, cuz she took the pics using her camera.. i wonder wat she would ask me to do next time~ til then..
BBQ @ yishun dam
Sunday, April 09, 2006

bt as i expected there are loads of unfinish food and drinks left lying around, glenn had to ta-bao some of them home.. so poor thing~ bt oso muz thank him la, cuz he's the one who went to buy all the stuffs and carry them down.. and he oso made "ai-xin fried rice" for dearie.. lols.. how nice!

How Careless!
Friday, April 07, 2006

im so careless.. i forgot to take my key out from the door after unlocking it~ and guess how long its been there? since last night! and when it was found outside the door? this evening.. faints.. the key has been there more than 24 hrs! oh god!

and how blur am i not noticing it even when i left the house, luckily mum saw it when she opened the door during the evening.. and i was lucky tat she tout that i left the key there when i went out of the house if nt she will take a knife and chop me up!

growing up
Thursday, April 06, 2006

checked on my little hammies juz now.. they are really growing fast and well wor.. they furs are already out~ the same as their papa and mama and their little eyes are open and ears are obviously seen~ so cute.. saw the both cuddling together sleeping juz now and oh ya~ they had learn how to walk too..

its also obvious tat their mama had grown older.. she seems to half white eyebrows and parts of her furs had turned white.. suddenly she look like a old hamster.. wonder if her fur will turn back to its original state cuz some says winter whites fur will turn white when the weather is cold bt it seems tat only her fur turned white while the other 2 of my hammies are as normal as usual...

hope my bb hammies will grow up soon to be an adult~ and im now praying tat they would find homes.. cuz i really can afford to have too many hammies.. if i were to keep them, i will have to seperate the papa and mama in case they give birth again!!
still waiting
Wednesday, April 05, 2006

emerine called me this afternoon saying her friend had recieved the confirmation letter from nyp and asked if ive gt it too~ bt sadly before i left house i hadn seen any letters on my desk.. was hoping tat it would be there when i reach home.. hais~ bt sadly i didn see any letters..

june told me it depends on the district u stay and the course u chose as nt everyone recieve the letters on the same day..

am still abit confuse with my poly admission~ it seems tat half of me wanted to get in poly asap so tat i can finish my studies sooner as im nt getting any younger.. bt while another half of me wanted to take a year's break from study, maybe work a year more.. bt of cuz, it all depends on my confirmation letter, i would start sch even if its stated tomorrow!

bt 1st i must 'shou shi xing qing' cuz still on those holiday mood, nt prepared to start sch yet.. bt guess its time to pack all those fun and play up and get ready.... letter where are you?!!!
