You Know You Love Me.

 

i need a hug. ):

school is such a stressful place. its not even dance that's stressing me. i dance once a week and its what makes me happier when i'm away from my books.

its the fact that everything has coincidentally been scheduled to occur in week 6 of school. so much so that it week 5 has to be preparation week and it clashes with my dance production. all these professors, make me wanna kill them! plus some of the people in my management science class who make me wanna kill them too. why did they vote for a mid term in week 6?! wth?!

i'm looking forward to performing on friday and saturday but i'm not looking forward to the two mid-terms, one presentation, and one individual assignment due in week 6.

i need a huggggggggggggggg. ):

i reformatted my laptop today. i did it in forty minutes, not the one and a half hours the HP guy predicted. how much better can this get? i prepared myself for 3 weeks without a laptop. three weeks with a laggy small notebook that doesn't even have the real version of microsoft office. lucky for me i forgot my cable yesterday because then i would've learnt from another HP guy that i can actually reformat my com myself and spare myself the three weeks of agony. praise the lord.

speaking of reformatting, i hate my immune system. it's what needs a reboot. gastric flu last sunday that lasted til wednesday. since then, my appetite's dropped tremendously. and then on saturday i thought i was being clever by sharing an apple pie with my mom who had a soar throat. now i have a cough with disgusting phlegm and a nose that cannot stop running. i hope i don't fall sick for the rest of the year. i will be strong!

can't wait to get down to studying. been so busy with patron's day. and i hope i burn less holes in my wallet after paying for so much stuff in school. still considering if i should sell my financial calculator or keep it so i can calculate how much i need to save for my retirement. i can get a financial advisor to do that for me when i start work right? what that'll cost me more than my financial calculator in the long run. then again, it would make more sense to have a professional plan my retirement and children's education requirements cos i'm not cut out for finance. heh heh heh!


time to catch some sleep. i have an essay due on monday and i'm going for The Killer's concert this sunday. oh no, no time!


goodnight!




XOXO,

thank you, for everything, brother. we're gonna miss you when you leave! (:

 

gonna spend a little more time with jason too. leaving singapore for good in feb. love you tseng. (:

After a long hiatus (not really), I am back! Heh.

School is going to kill me very soon. And its only week 1!! I'm still in a holiday mood which is really, not a good sign. I'm not preparing for lessons. I'm not getting enough sleep. And I'm not finding the time to watch my husband on tv/youtube. :(

But I promise I will work so darn hard this semester. I must get my exchange. I'm competing with more than 500 people who attended the briefing yesterday. Chances are so slim but I'm still gonna try. Because I want it sooooo much. You never know until you try, right? Sighs...

I'm just gonna just enjoy school this week and next because after next week, its serious business. And I need to meet up with people too to catch up before I find myself with lesser time than now. Grrrrr.

Will update again soon! I'm going to cut my hair tomorrowwww!

In the mean time, stress reliever... for me. Hahaha. My husband can, OHAMGEE, dance! Choreography was done in New York. (:

Dance prac has been cancelled at 745am in the morning, while I was in the midst of putting on my concealer. Because I wear dailies, I am now walking around the house with contacts. And I cannot go back to sleep so why not update!


Gold Coast was nothing was awesome. It felt so darn good to leave for two weeks and just busk in the sun and everything Australian. But you have no idea how many Singaporeans we saw there. Its no surprise because we see tons of them there all the time anyway. What was annoying was how they were so bloody embarrassing. I have countless stories.

So my brother and I came to a point where if people asked where we were from, "OH WE'RE FROM MALAYSIA". Hahahaha. Just kidding. I know we ourselves are Singaporeans and that you shouldn't be embarrassed. But... you know how sometimes your own people behave in suuuch cheapskate & kiasi manners that you really just don't wanna be associated with them?

Take for example, Sea World. You take a log ride with the knowledge that you WILL GET WET. This Singaporean family took their umbrella out as they were coming down the slope and the huge waves were about to crash on them. Fine if you wanna avoid the huge waves. But to continue holding it all the way back to the exit as the boat makes its way there? No cool. So not cool.

And then there were two families at the Hard Rock Cafe store. Don't ask me why it was a coincidence that both sides of the counters were Singaporeans, and both sides were arguing over particular discounts and free gifts. One side kept telling the guy that a 10% discount is "not enough". I overheard because the Australian guy told them to hold on after he noticed me standing behind them with my shirt, waiting and waiting for the darn couple to be done being cheapskate. Needless to say, Singaporeans also talk very loudly, like they're the only ones on earth, and so we realized that the other Singaporean family was not happy with their free gift because the Australian girl attending to them had to tell them that she could only give them free gifts that the company had allocated. Again, not cool.

I have more stories. But I shall keep them to myself. I'd rather not embarrass our nationality any further.

On a happier note, the trip was goodgoodgood! There were more cute guys than pretty girls but we were there at the period where the Schoolies were on their graduation break before starting university. On most of the nights we spent at Surfers having dinner, we saw a lot rowdiness because groups were hopping from club to club, people were getting high and so many wanted to high-five us while they were on their way to club while we were on our way home. I also presumed this girl broke up with her boyfriend cos her friends were giggling at her while she was squatting in the middle of the path way at Surfers in her dress and heels and was screaming this at the ground, "YOU BITCHHHH! YOU BROKE UP WITH ME YOU M***** F*****!!" That was such a funny moment because EVERYONE was looking at her.

My parents also tried to convince my brother & I to move to Brisbane after I start work. Or at least let them move there when they retire. "You and Korkor invest in a house, then we can come here during the holidays and rent it out when we're not around". Lemme start work first. But it doesn't sound like a bad idea cos we visited so many property agents around the area and talked to them in detail. I have no clue why my dad is so keen. Maybe because Penang is now out of the question since there are always landslides. Landslides = unsafe for retirement.

Now that I'm back, I'm busying myself with meetups, dance prac, smu's patron's day meetings and obviously, catching up on my chinese shows and husbands. Forgive me glo, but 羅志祥... OH-AM-GEE. I CANNOT TAKE IT. Damn 帅. I really never ever fail to laugh. He's really such a natural host, actor and entertainer. Just give me high five, cos I know you agree. NOW!! If I count, I've been following him since that album with the long hair before he changed music companies 3 years ago. You know the album where he sang with 小S, 戀愛達人? OMG. I cannot take it. I must meet him! I must dance with him! Let's go for his concert when he comes to Singapore okay! We missed the previous one! Now I don't care if I sound like an ah lian (because I'm an inner ah lian), but 羅志祥 is my 唱跳天王老公! I don't careeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! OMG CANNOT TAKE IT.

Watch this:


Remember to look for Gold Coast photos on Facebook! Gtg! (:

Tomorrow will mark the end of my accounting nightmare. I can only hope the paper will be do-able. At least not like the tests where I didn't have time, didn't stay calm enough to apply what I knew, and basically didn't have proper functioning brains. But I'm working on it. I'm trying hard. I can do it!



I can't wait to leave for Gold Coast. I can't wait to be away from school and leave Singapore for two whole weeks. Leave the bloody stress behind before the next crazy term starts again and I have to think about exchange and internship.. 0_o

But you know, everytime I take a break and go on to tumblr, there are things that never fail to intrigue me. What I see also tells me that God's watching over me. So.. lemme share some of the too-cute-to-resist/ too-cute-not-to-share photos I've come across in the last 15 mins. (:

my nose is running, AGAIN, for the one millionth time. whywhywhywhywhy! i cannot afford to fall sick now. dammit.

this semester's exams are gonna be a killer. okay, one particular exam is going to be a killer. i hope i pull through. i'm gonna work ultra hard from next semester on. make sure i really do damn well. a promise to myself, my parents, my brother, and my grandma.

this is what i'm working for. my goal for the spring term of 2011:

Symptom: Sleepiness. The one and only symptom.

Cause: Notes, textbooks, powerpoint slides, word documents, my presentation script, exams

Result: Falling asleep, waking up to find nothing has been done and its time for evening mass.

Things that perpetrate the allergy: More attempts to complete reports, presentation scripts, and more attempts to even START studying.

Cure: Cancelling of exams, watching chinese shows and gossip girl all day, a holiday.

the end is near. the end is near. the end is near. the holidays are coming.

something about accounting during this term that makes me hate studying so much. i open my book and my brain shuts off immediately. i can't wait for next semester. everything will be more hectic, yet more interesting. and i can say bye bye to stressful nights deciding how much i should bid for my lessons once i declare my major. bidding is officially the bane of a smu student's existence. AND, my chinese shows are keeping me away from my books. new taiwan cutie alert! (: just like how i love many songs, i love all my husbands. how scandalous. (;

on another note, i'm itching to dance. itching to pirouette my way across the studio. can't wait for december because december equals family time, australia, dance, friends, and christmas. i should stop counting down. it only makes time crawl.


XOXO,
D

Sher said during lunch that for every five years of marriage, you change a metal. And the first five years of marriage are 'cotton'.  COTTON IS A METAL MEH?! Then I want my first five years of marriage to be called cotton candy cos my husband will be so sweet and sensitive and handsome and tall and caring and.. and...  Keep dreaming man! HAHAHA.

Anyway, I think we all look like taitais here. Beautiful ones to be exact.

 

I didn't even get to sleep last night. If I did it was prolly for a period so short it didn't feel like I slept at all. The toilet was my room for a night. Ran back and forth 4 times during the night to LS. What did I eat? Now my stomach and legs feel like jelly. Like there's nothing left. I might have excreted my brains as well cos I'm in no mood to study for my marketing test. I just feel like lying in bed, bugging my bolster and stoning. Can't wait for tmr, 6pm.
