Food Republic FML

2010-07-19T08:53:00.000-07:00

I said I'm not gonna put anymore FMLs on my status anymore... this one deserves its own post.

About a week ago, I went to have lunch at Food Republic. Here's my conversation with the uncle.

Uncle: Hi, how may I help you?
Me: Hi, can i have Set B please?
Uncle: *Takes a look at my ancient phone* ... wow... that's an old phone.
Me: ....yeah...
Uncle: Time to get a new phone.
Me: No! I can't get rid of it. It's not "dead" yet.
Uncle: *Stares*
Me: ... (great... now I get judged even when i'm just buying food)
Uncle: GOOD! Girls like you are hard to come by!
Me: ...Eh...?
Uncle: Are you married?
Me:......... (Do I look that old? Am I already at that age? OMG i can't breathe....)
Uncle: Do you have a boyfriend?
Me:...er.... (I just want my food T_T)
Uncle: Want me to introduce someone to you?
Me: ...no... thanks....
Uncle: Here's your food... oh and i forgot to give you this.

FYI, NO it was NOT his number. it was just a food republic discount card.
So I went back to my table.

Me: Hey, I got a discount card.
Boss: Where did you get it from?
Me: The uncle gave it to me.
Boss: Now be honest, what time are you meeting him tonight?
Me: -_-

That's when I realised. I only appeal to uncles... regardless of race or nationality... FML

another drunken night

2010-02-07T03:49:00.000-08:00

what? school hasn't officially started so i'm allowed to drink okay.
thank god there are NO unglam pictures to remember this night by.
except that Mariya was there to see it.

it started with a gathering of chinese people at Ke & Amy's place.
(yes we chinese stick together like rice ha-ha-ha let's get over it)

so we bought some beer. only 2 six packs.
cos it's saturdaay evening and all shops are closed except for the coops petrol kiosk.
Amy had some red lable at home which resulted in a mixture of drinks.

btw sweet white wine tastes DISGUSTING
after you have prepped your tastebuds with beer and scotch whisky.

so imagine, 2 six packs, 1 bottle of red lable and 2 bottles of sweet white wine.

ke was damn high by then and tried to put on her make up cos we were going to a bar
(having run out of alcohol)
obviously she totally messed it up
and was looking real weird with one eye in horrible make up
so she decided that she'll just go out like that

somehow in my semi high stage, i managed to convince her otherwise.
somehow we ended up in the bar
FYI the beer was disgusting.
somehow i went out and talked to mariya
yes i still remember what we talked about.

some weird guy came over to talk to us.
i suspect to steal our beer.
anyway the night ended with me puking all over the street okay.
yes again
yes this time in bulle.

RARGH
i will not drink again.
ever.
i feel horrible.

Back in Singapore

2009-12-20T10:48:00.000-08:00

I'm finally back.
The flight home from switzerland was torturous.
first from Geneva to Frankfurt, which was alright

but the flight from Frankfurt to Bangkok took eons.
first of all, the frankfurter airport is anything but effcient.
by the time i was able to find my terminal, i realised that there was a huge queue before i could get to the gates.

we ended up waitng for many passengers which delayed the flight,
then it started to snow
which cause further dalay.

by the time i got to bangkok, my flight back to singapore had left.
i managed to get onto the next flight to singapore which was supposed to leave at 12:00 am but we started boarding only at 12:30 am. instead of arriving in singapore in the morning i arrived at close to four in the afternoon.

i did end up sitting between two wonderfully pleasant guys on the plane, who were worse off than me as they could only board their transient flights much much later that day.

important thing is that I AM BACK! :D

60th Birthday Speech by SHAUN

2009-11-17T03:30:00.000-08:00

We have this task in school...
to write the 60th birthday speech that a friend gives during our birthday.
so this is what shaun wrote for me....
what he's gonna say on my 60th birthday.

First of all I would like to question one thing, how did this person manage
to reach 60? We all know what her habits were when we were younger. Just like
how people say women age like fine wine I think Zhang aged kinda like that but
with an unexpected zing to it. You know... Kinda like how oysters taste to you
when you first eat it. A funny taste that you try to get rid off at the start
right after daddy told you to try it, then you kinda puke it out and attempt to
use beverage to clean your tongue but after eating it for abit you start to
realise that it actually tastes pretty good then you’d come back for more. It’s
kinda always been like that. I think her husband would agree with me on
this.
I’ve known Zhang since we were like what. Youngsters I think. Back then
she was all tomboy and what not. If you guys met her then you would know she was
kinda the scary type of girl. You know when you were younger there’s always a
girl in class that you wouldn’t wanna piss off cause if you weren’t careful she
might actually bite you. Well... She never was too far away from that mark. We
were schoolmates in elementary school but I only truly got to know her when I
was 16. I remember pretty vividly, she was the first girl that had ever step
foot into my room. I was kinda the hygienic type back then so I didn’t like it
when people dirtied things I owned. She came into my room and sat on my bed. All
while I was on the computer, and then waved me a ‘hi’. Normally I’d get really
angry from the fact that she just sat on my bed, but due to utter shock I bade a
reflex hi. And that was about the first time we truly met. What a surprise visit
that was I still blame Wayne for it.
Like all weird things that has occurred
to her, this speech was prepared for this day when i was 20. Seriously, who
makes a person prepare for a speech almost 40 years in advance. You gotta know
someone like her was behind it.
We’ve not kept in touch constantly over the
years but it’s safe to say that even as such she still remains one of the best
friends I ever had. There is saying I’ve heard somewhere, that a strong
friendship is not based on the frequency of contact between two people but the
total lack of awkwardness when they meet after not seeing each other for a long
time.
I’ve known alot of crazy people in my life. Trust me when I say I know
alot of crazy people. I pretty much escaped from a mental institute myself.
Just take a look among you guys right now. For all those who’ve known her
for a long time. You’d have to have abit of crazy in you. Well, she was the
crazy that made the other crazies look mediocre, bite size even. But even then
she was and still is the crazy that I wouldn’t want absent in my life. Happy
60th birthday Zhang.

Marriage? Definitely NOT READY

2009-10-22T07:21:00.000-07:00

The bf and I just had a realistic gage of whether we're ready for marriage.
Yes... a little early, I know.

Our friend whom we met in school last semester is here.
His gf is in the same course as me but later than me by 1 semester.
he just causally mentioned that they might be getting married
around the end of next year

judging by the minor heart attack and uncomfortable silence it gave me and the bf...
nope we're definitely not getting married anytime soon.

omg..
am I at THAT AGE already??!?

the bf's friend has a son...
who calls him "uncle"

omg the bf is already an uncle.
which makes me AUNTIE.....

i wonder what char is.... wahahaha

Hilarious Mom (not mine)

2009-10-15T11:55:00.000-07:00

i found this on a funny website...
this is the kinda of mother i envision char would turn into
well not exactly
but her face came to mind when i was reading this LOL

Dear Mrs. X:
In just over a week, you will be my son’s Grade 1 teacher.
He is ever so excited to be under your tutelage. Why, since the last day of
kindergarten, entering your class was all he could talk about. He gleefully
thrust a piece of paper into my hand on that June afternoon, and said, “Here’s a
list of the stuff I need for school next September!”
And I have to admit, I,
too, was excited. I’m a school supplies geek from way back. And so, in early
August, I set out to buy the items you’d listed.
It was on my fourth store
that the realization began to sink in.
You’re a crafty bitch, aren’t
you?
This list was a thinly disguised test. Could I find the items, exactly
as you’d prescribed? Because if not, my son would be That Kid, the one with the
Problem Mother, Who Can’t Follow Directions.
For example, the glue sticks you
requested. In the 40 gram size. Three of the little buggers. (What kind of
massive, sticky project you’ve got planned for the first day of school that
would require the students to bring all this glue, I cannot imagine.) But the 40
gram size doesn’t come in a convenient 3-pack. The /30 /gram size does. But
clearly, those would be wildly inappropriate. So I got the individually priced
40’s, as per your instructions.
Another bit of fun was your request for 2
packs of 8 Crayola crayons (basic colors). The 24 packs, with their 24
/different /colors, sat there, on sale. I could have purchased /three/ of the 24
packs for the price I had to pay for the 8 packs. (Clearly, you’ll not be
teaching the youngsters any sort of economics lessons this year.) Even the
cashier looked at me, as if to say, “Pardon me, ma’am, but are you slow?” as I
purchased these non-bargain crayons. But that’s what the list said. And I was
committed to following the list.
But the last item, well, now, you saved your
malice up for that one, didn’t you? “8 mm ruled notebooks”, you asked for.
Simple enough. Except the standard size is /seven /millimetres. One. Millimetre.
Difference. Do you realize, Mrs. X., exactly how infinitesimal the difference
between 7 mm ruling and 8 mm ruling is? Pretty small, I assure you. The
thickness of a fingernail, approximately. But that millimetre, that small bit of
nothingness, made me drive to four different stores, over the course of three
sweaty August hours. And when I finally, finally found the last remaining 8 mm
notebooks, I took no pleasure in my victory. I merely shifted my focus. To you,
Mrs. X.
You wanna dance, lady? Let’s dance.
Because I am just batshit
crazy enough to play your games. And, in turn, come up with some of my
own.
On show and share day, my son will be bringing the video of his birth.
It will be labelled, “Ben’s First Puppy.” Enjoy.
He will be given a list of
words, and daily, he will ask you what they mean. Words such as, “pedophile”,
“anti-semite”, and “skank”. Good luck with those.
At some point, you will
attempt to teach him mathematics. And I’m quite sure that, like most of your
ilk, you will require my son to “show his work”. And he will.
Through
interpretive dance.
Because that is who you’ve chosen to tangle with, toots.
A stay at home mom who is not entirely balanced, and has altogether too much
time on her hands. But is, most certainly, A Mother Who Can Follow
Directions.
Sincerely,
Ginny

bleh bleh bleh

2009-09-30T01:48:00.000-07:00

it's been long since i last blogged.
i was sick and had SO much work.

which cause my results to deteriorate
you would not believe

but no i'm not failing....
it's just that my average is almost exactly 2 points lower than last year
*annoyed*

but all is not lost....
i have to come to terms with that...
but it BUGS ME SO MUCH

i blame the singapore educational system...
it has turned me this way~!!!

somid term break is coming up
i have no money and the bf is not even free to go anywhere...
ANYONE IN EUROPE WANNA MEET UP?!?!?

Moon Landing Anniversary

2009-07-20T11:12:00.001-07:00

Hmm this is officially the first year in which i'm convinced
that the moon landing was a CONSPIRACY

yes yes.
zyun has turned into one of THOSE people.

the thought only occured to me last year
during F&B
those in my class would know what i'm talking about.

at first i was like
"why the heck would anyone want to fake a MOON LANDING!?"

and then it kinda started making a little sense
i watched a conspiracy show and now i'm CONVINCED
it's fake.

it's not the little things like
"ooh you couldn't see any stars in the background"
that convinced me

more like
a whole list of things.
for those interested i suggest you check out some shows on youtube.

it's really rather interesting how OBVIOUS it becomes after a while
here's a summary of some points

1) the guy who created the camera used by the astronauts said that it was impossible for them to take a well aimed picture cos their suits wouldn't be able to let them look down at the camera while using it. Yet all the pictures were very well taken

2) Considering there's only 1 light source : the sun it is impossible for the the shadows to be pointing in different directions yet they were.

3) some places in the video were EXACTLY the same... even though they were supposed to be 20 miles apart. (blamed on bad editing)

4) There's apparently a radiation belt they would have to pass through to get to the moon
which should kill them or at least give them some cancer.

5)The flags flapped in the wind.... there's no wind on the moon.

6) Apparently if you fastforward the video to twice it's original speed. they just look like they're running on earth and driving on earth.

7) How do you see such detailed pictures when the person's back is facing the sun?
By right you should only see a shadow. unless there are alternative light sources.

8)It's been 40 years... why hasn't anyone gone back to the moon?! we should have space hotels by now.

9) The take off should have created some kind of blast off crater or something

10) You couldn't hear the engine noise when they were taking off again from the moon.
by right it should have been loud enough to muffle the voices of the astronauts.

Barcelona Pics

2009-06-28T09:06:00.000-07:00

Being abused by the BF in the pool

Our neighbourhoodwas just beautiful

Not to mention the awesome beach

with the bf

I spent all of my time in the shade.

guess why

wonderful architecture in the city

My friend got her hair braided on the beach.

barcelona

2009-06-17T05:46:00.000-07:00

FIRST OF ALL:
SUM SUM and SNOW came for a visit!
i showed them around town and we bought a bunch of stuff for Snow.
and then they had to catch their plane
then i realised that we didn't take any pictures together
ARGH

oh well
there's always next time.

SO
The boyfriend and i are in BARCELONA~!
with 2 of our other friends

the trip strarted off pretty badly
i got really stressed with packing
and when we got to the airport we couldn't print our ticket
because there was something wrong with the reference number
eventually we did manage to get on the plane
we got to barcelona in less than 2 hours
and another stupid thing happened
when we asked the information counter on how we could get to our hotel
they told us that it was BLOODY far from barcelona
it's not even technically IN barcelona
it's like in the neighbouring small town
but the address says BARCELONA

we were pissed but determined not to let it spoil our day
so we waited for the MONBUS
which would take 45 minuted of traveling
because a cab would cost 70 bucks

and then
the bus drove right past all the people waiting
and the next one would come in an hour.
great.

so we took a cab
the driver
who ONLY spoke spanish
took us to the middle of barcelona
and THEN we realised that
he had no idea where the freaking hotel was

he finally called the hotel
and started driving BACK towards the airport
by then we were already charged 20 euros

SO we finally got to our mother FAR hotel
the price was now 80 euros.

we consoled ourselved by saying that we're sharing it amongst 4 people
and that it was cheap by swiss standard
considering how long we have travelled

but once we were in the hotel
we were deeply CONSOLED

for 240 euros for 2 person and 3 nights
we get
a bedroom:
with a small living area:
and a freaking KITCHEN

FULLY EQUIPED
with minifridge, stove, pots and pans, coffee cups, expresso cups, coffee maker and cutleries.

and of course a toilet.

and this is our view
see that behind the building?
yes that's THE BEACH

which has a small shop
volleyball courts
backetball court
and those beach chairs which you can get for 13 euros
no limit for how many people
and for a whole day

they also have a street of little restaurants
one claiming to be "singaporean food"

we had pizza the first night with beer
it was SO GOOD

and it's quiet like at a resort

i thought sepia made it look and feel old...
which is exactly how it feels like

Boyfriend and I are HAPPY
oh
and i saw the largest pineapple in the world

ARGH! WHY ME?!?!?! WHY ALWAYS ME?!?!

2009-06-07T10:02:00.000-07:00

You know how they say,
when you know something was coming
but nothing prepared you for what you saw?
as cliche as that sounds
that was EXACTLY how i felt.

i was working the morning shift
when we received a phonecall for a room service
so i prepared the breakfast and brought it up to her room
i knocked and heard "Come on in!"
so I entered.

there she was on the bed.
topless.
thank god her bottom lady bits were covered.
Maybe it's cos i'm asian
maybe it's cos i'm conservative
it's not like i've never seen any topless women before.
(thanx to the wonderful exposure brought by the media)

but being in the same room as a naked stranger was something different
the moment i saw her
it was like an alarm went off in my head
telling the mothership to abort mission and return to safety

imagine flashing red lights and that annoying lousy honking sound you hear during emergencies in a submarine
yes.
that was what was going on in my head.
"WARNING WARNING NAKED POSSIBLY CRAZED LADY ALERT. LEAVE THE ROOM NOW"

i quickly put the tray on the table
wished her to enjoy her breakfastand made my way out

that was how the plan was formulated in my head.

what actually happened wasi put the tray on her tabled
managed to utter an enjoy you breakfast
and as i was just about to step out of the room
into the sweet escape of the corridoor.
"What's your name?"
she asked.
i really had to suppress my desire to just make a run for the door
and replied her question

as i TURNED to leave
she said"How come you don't speak french?"
i forced myself to look at her face while i answered her questions.
now i know why guys get so GAGA over naked chicks
it is indeed very distracting
she kept me there for like 5 minutes.
i couldn't simply leave in the middle of a conversation with a guest.

when i finally got out of that room....
i was so traumatized.
i asked my friend later whether it was normal for guests to be naked in this country
and she said NO.
WHY ME?!WHY DO WEIRD THINGS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO ME?!?!?!

Summertime!

2009-04-15T06:38:00.000-07:00

AN OLD ANG MOH MAN HIT ON ME~!!!
and with old i don't mean like Russel Crowe old.
I mean SANTA CLAUSE OLD.
DUMBLEDORE OLD
MY GRAND-DADDY OLD.

I was working today
and this older gentleman came in.
and with gentleman i really mean like the Monopoly Uncle kind.
just without the hat.
or the old fashioned eye glass.
he asked for a coffee and a croissant.
when i brought it to him he was really nice
like the kinda guy whom you immediately relate to as YOUR GRANDFATHER.
He was so nice and sweet
when i went back to ask him whether he needed anything else
he told me that i was taking very well care of him
then he took my hand
which i let him cos i thought that he was such a sweet nice guy
and he said"I'm looking for a chinese girlfriend."
i'm not gonna lie.
i was kinda chuckling cos it took me by surprise
it was like a joke... which wasn't very funny.
and then i POLITELY rejected him...
i don't know whether i'm flattered or kinda offended

do i look like a mail order bride?!
is it cos i'm asian?
just cos i'm asian and currently a waitress so i'm bound to look for rich old ang moh guys?!
do i not look as if i can earn my own money?!?
CHOOSE MY OWN FREAKING HUSBAND?!

yeah i should just take a chill pill

Paris

2009-04-09T12:56:00.000-07:00

because i just got back and am tired.
i will simply blog in pictures and captions
me near the bf's bed. really happy cos i got to sleep loads

in front of the opera house

with the bf at some square.

with the bf near the louvre.

i'm sure you guys recognise the place

just closer.

it really pissed us off that when we got there it was starting to close.

but we saw this egyptian exibition for free so it was still okay.

believe it or not.

this is our hotel

it was bloody far from the city

i don't know which idiot booked it.

and it was creepy empty

not to mentioned that the freaking front door was MILES away from the main street

because the hotel has a freaking large china wall.

i will elaborate again later

cos the bf is getting grumpy that i'm not sleeping yet

trying to make sense of the paris metro system.

it's like trying to untangle hair.

on champs elysee in front of the triumphant arch

right in front of the triumphant arch

i took this

that's why it's so pretty

because the bf loves me

did i mention we didn't go alone?

nora trying to look like the eiffle tower in the background

me right below it.

at the ass of the tower

the bf bought me the largest cotton candy in the world

need i say why i was grinning this big?

the lights turned on.

you cant see it here but it's really pretty

the tower looked sparkly all over

should check it out on youtube or something

"it's call HAILING, stupid."
no it's not.
cos it wasn't tiny ice pieces.
it was tiny snowballs.
so there.

anyways.
if you hate me being all mushy and gushy about my bf.
don't read this post.

so a few days ago i got
kinda sick.
not officially sick
but the pre-fever
kinda feeling
thank god i didn't get fever.
i was having a headache, throat pain and my whole bleeding body was aching.
and i had to work!

my boyfriend came over and took care of me <3 <3 <3
he cooked for me
and made me eat meds.
he even put me to bed
and i slept the whole day.
from like 1 pm on sunday till the next morning cos i had to work.
of course i woke up in between to eat some stuff
like medicine.

he even carried me to bed <3 <3 <3.
and then he came over again on monday to bring me medicine.

okay i'm done gushing.
and feeling real happy...
aside from slightly sick.

2009-03-15T06:21:00.000-07:00

because i am bored
and i love family guy

ok i admit. i'm a hypocrite

2009-03-06T06:29:00.000-08:00

*note:something crappy happened today.
my boss told me that i can't take my full 1 week holiday with my bf
cos that week falls on easter.
which is a holiday for the restaurant hence all staff get off work
except for the poor interns.
in short:
we have breakfast duty.
at least i still have 5 days in france

The restaurant was full yesterday.
and with full.
i don't mean full.
but overflowed

during our busiest time.
these two people came
and when we told them that the restaurant was full.
they decided to eat in the lobby.
which means that on top of what i have to do in the restaurant,
i have to bring table cloth, napkin,bread plate, glasses, cutleries AND bread to the lobby for them.

okay so it's part of my job
they are hungry.
i'm not blaming them.
my boss took the order
and when the main course came, i served them.
the lady took one look at her dish and ~~said~~ to me in a semi-indignant-haughty way
"i can tell that that's not well done"
and i replied:
"would you like me to change it for you ma'am?"
I thought:
Oh for pete's sake...if you're really hungry you can eat it. Seriously, african descendant? think of the kids in your country"

anyways i took her meal back and told the chef EXACTLY what she wanted.
"very well done" a.k.a "bien bien cuit"

and when i took it back later
(mind you we were still full)
she looked at it.
sniffed
and said
"okay,i will TRY to eat it"
as i turned to leave
she asked ME TO STAY AND WATCH HER EAT IT.
just to make sure that she can.
thank god i didn't try to poison her.

she made this big show of putting it to her lips, pulling it away and making a face.
i tried to look really sorry and said
"it is alright?"
but what i really wanted to say was
"OMG. just eat it already. how the hell did you get so chubby if you do that for every damn meal?!

of course, we waitresses are very good
at acting.
so we don't show what we asre thinking inside.

for example.
in the morning when people ask me for cappucino.
(we have to make them manually)
i say of course, no problem
i think wth? is normal coffee too plain for you? spoilt princess

i know.
i'm a hypocrite lol

Flatmates and 22

2009-03-03T13:20:00.000-08:00

Yeah so Lil V is jobless.

she flew back to china today

Serena moved to an apartment near the train station with her friend

Sis ? moved to another apartment too

and i hear uncle got sacked as well.

and he has found a new internship for his "service" internship.

he's going to be a chauffeur.

don't ask me.

i don't know.

so he's gonna move out as well.

it's just gonna be Chubby and me i guess.

maybe Glion IS a good hotel management school afterall lol

i'm kinda glad that the girls moved out.

at least the toilet would be cleaner for a while

without all their hair and gross stuff.

they don't even pretend to be clean

i shower in the guys' toilet cos THAT'S how dirty the girls are.

and the toilet is forever flooded

because they don't know how to use a shower curtain.

i'm gradually turning into my mother.

at least i'm already thinking like her.

i'm just not saying it out yet

cos then i'd really be my mother.

on the working frontier.

Maria took a 8 days break.

so i didn't get a break for that long.

it was driving me nuts cos i guess i was getting so freaking tired.

i did something utterly stupid on saturday

i messed up the bread order form.

instead of ordering 10 PIECES of complet BREAD

i ordered 10 PACKETS of TOAST.

thank god the director likes me.

yeah so Liesel Tagged me on this note on Facebook.

My Life In Geneva

2009-02-20T09:23:00.000-08:00

i was going to the loo the other day

and i saw one of my flatmate's chinese book.

it's like this book by a 19 year old girl (or written when she was 19)

about her studies in south africa.

and i decided that

i wanna do that too.

not write a book per se.

but you know...

"document" everything so that when i read this crap in the future

i can reminisce.

lol

So first of all.

let me do the introduction.

INTRODUCTION

I currently stay in Geneva, Switzerland.

Because i'm currently doing my internship in a small 3 star business hotel here.

i live in a flat.

rented out by the female boss of a chinese restaurant.

it's in a small yellow house.

3 bus stops away from the airport.

so yes.

we get some awesome commercial plane viewings.

not that anyone i know would be interested....

the yellow house is only 2 storeys tall.

we occupy the entire second floor which is 2 mirror imaged apartments.

but the lady boss removed the wall seperating the 2 apartments

and turned one of the kitchens into a bedroom (my bedroom)

so we have 2 toilets(1 for the guys and 1 for the chicks)

1 kitchen.

3 bedrooms

and 1 giant-huge living room.

and most of the time it's dirty to the point of being gross.
but hey.
i can support myself.
what can you do? :P

Here is an introduction of my flatmates.
In no specific order.
For their sake, I have given each of them a nickname.
My friends in Glion like Kate would definitely know who I’m talking about most of the time. Lol
Let’s just hope that some things are kept discreet.

Chubby
I call him chubby because…
Well because that’s what he is.
I have known chubby for about half a year.
He’s the first person I met in glion.
And it’s pretty amazing that we’re still friends. Jk
He’s one of my bf’s best buds in school.
And prolly the person I spend most time with aside from my bf.
(well from now onward it just MIGHT be more than my bf)
Chubby is a slob.
Gross and messy.
I swear to god no girl would DARE to use the loo after he’s done with it.
In his room
his clothes are scattered on the floor like bodies in a mass murder crime scene.
It’s almost like they died while trying to get away from him.
I’m exaggerating.
Or maybe I’m not.

Lil V
Lil V is the chick who lives in the room across from mine.
She used to work in a Japanese restaurant but quit or got fired.
Either way she’s not working there anymore.
She’s got a kind of Taiwanese look.
Usually she roams about in the apartment in paul frank shorts.
I often wonder why her thighs are not frozen off yet cos our apartment is FREEZING.
I’m guessing it’s just a few degrees higher than whatever’s outside
since our heating system only works if you attach yourself permanently to it.
Chubby’s got a thing for Lil V.
He even told his lady boss a.k.a our tenant.
FYI, chubby’s got a GF back in our motherland.
And Lil V has got a BF in France.
Soon, returning to the motherland.
We all know that Chubby’s got a thing for her cos he keeps talking about touching her “big white thigh”.
Which gave her the nickname “Da Bai Tui”.
I don’t think she’s aware of it
And yes. Chubby IS kind of perverse.
He’s kind of funny in a gross, loud and sick way.

Sis ? / ? Jie
I call her that because I honestly have no clue what her name is.
She’s been staying with us for a month
I’ve talked to her less than 5 times.
And she’s moving out soon.
The reason for me not talking to her is cos she leaves for work before I do.
When she gets back for lunch I’m leaving for my evening shift
When I get back she’s usually asleep.
I don’t know much about her.
· Except she’s older than me.
· Not a horrible person.
· Not someone I’m likely to be best friends with.

Serene
At least that’s what I think her English name is.
And I don’ even know what her Chinese name is.
Embarrassingly, my BF does know what her Chinese name is.
What makes that worse is that she’s my roommate.
She’s sweet.
More on the quiet side.
She actually comes from my hometown.
She works with Chubby.
So we do interact a little bit.
Like, after I get back from lunch and before I officially fall asleep.
I messaged her once to buy bread cos Chubby and I were hungry.
(I got her number from Chubby but didn’t save it)
She called me after she got back
And we were on the phone.
Me (in the bedroom): Hello?
Her (in the dining area): Wei? (Chinese hello on the phone)
Me: Who is this?
Her: Who is this?
[silence]
Both of us: AIYAH!
Followed by her coming into the bedroom.

Uncle
No one knows his name.
Everyone just calls him Da Shu (Uncle)
I’m kidding.
I think it’s just Chubby and me who don’t know his name
Or maybe chubby does know his name.
Well the rest of the people know each other cos they’re from the same school.
Uncle is prolly the last guy I can imagine getting into a romantic relationship.
Because he just seems so…
I don’t know what I’m talking about.
It’s like …
I can’t even think of anyone as an example.

Valentines' Day

2009-02-17T14:16:00.000-08:00

V-day wasn't very special this year.
cos of the internship.
i was working from 6:30 am to 11:30 pm
and again from 5:00pm to 9:00pm.
on top of that,
my bf and i were a 1 hour train ride away from each other.

breakfast passed by relatively fast
i made an orange juice for this guy working at our reception
and he said that he was so grateful
he even gave me cheek kisses lol.

i told him that if that's what he gives for orange juice,
i wonder what he'll do for more.
lol

i was kidding of course.
i kinda regret making that joke now.
cos now i feel kinda uncomfortable around him.

anyways i knocked off at 9:00pm and was doing the closure at the reception when my bf came in.
all the way from montreux to pick me up from work
AND with a bouquet of roses.
it was so sweet.

i never thought of him as the flower giving type of guy
and frankly i'm not the flower receiving kinda girl.
i think it's quite pointless since they die and you can't do much with them anyway
i'd rather have a mug that i can keep and remember forever.
and i'm also SO NOT the rose kinda person.
they're so....
expected.
but i loved it.
it was so sweet, seeing him stand there
looking kinda awkward with flowers.

and i was HONESTLY surprised.
i had him penned as the kinda guy who wouldn't be caught dead with flowers lol.

we had dinner together at Boky after that
and that was V-Day for me.
sweet and simple.

Men and their... parts

2009-02-09T09:12:00.000-08:00

*WARNING: This post is borderline sexist and contains references to male genitalia. If it could offend you then here's your indication to stop reading. PS: Singapore doesn't have any law regarding being sexist... do we...? PPS: Does not actually blogging geographically IN singapore change anything?*

So,I am more or less a full time waitress (INTERN) for 6 months
and
you'd think that i won't be able to learn anything aside from clearing dishes
and setting tables.
You, my dear, are WRONG

This morning,
after the breakfast shift
as I was clearing the usual things...
i had a REVELATION.

It suddenly hit me.
you see i was cleaning the chairs
and noticing as per usual how all the dirtier chairs has MEN sitting on them
i'm not saying that there were no clean guys.
i'm just saying that ALL the dirtier chairs were sat on by MEN.

and they all had a DISTINCT shape
it's always bread crumbs or croissant skin spckled into the shape of a triangle.
the V shape your legs make with the edge of the chair as the base.

now all the ladies are wondering
"HOW in the world do you make a shape like that?!"
because your mouth has to be aligned with your... crotch as you eat
in order for the crumbs to fall nicely into that shape

Unless of course....
THEY EAT WITH THEIR PENIS
i mean they already think with it...
so anything is possible right?

so... what does your dad do?

2009-01-16T12:35:00.000-08:00

being in a school like glion.
where everyone has to be at least of the upper middle class
in order to afford coming to this expensive school
in this bleedingly expensive country
of an expensive continent.
you learn to scope out your friends.

your learn how to gage whether they are:
upper middle class (me...i suspect only)
lower upper class
uppper class
or F***ING RICH

apart from the clothes:
non-branded cotton cheapskate clothes (me)
Guess Lacoste
or D&G LV Gucci Chanel

sometimes it's really difficult to seperate the "spoiled rich kids"
from the "sensible F***ING RICH kids"

because one flaunts his money in the casino, club
clothes, bag, chicks
and the other one keeps his status a secret.

usually their "status" slips during conversations.
me: so why are you in this school?
them: i'm planning to take over my grandfather's hotel.
me: acting like it's the most common thing in the world of course. of course... isn't that everyone's plan?

sometimes it doesn't work.
so we start asking questions like
"how much did you spends last night?"
and judge from their expressions accompanying their answers.

the most common question asked is
"so... what does your dad do?"

the other day Andy(someone i would group in upper class or maybe higher) asked me

andy:So what does your father do?
me:Oh i guess he does chemical engineering.
Andy:...so he makes likes the Powerpuff Girls.
Me: Yes Andy, that's EXACTLY what he does.

and that's not the end of it.
Later on we met Joyce (somewhere right smack in the middle between Andy and my aocial standings)

Joyce: So what does your dad do?
Me: Oh he does chemical engineering. He creates things like the Powerpuff Girls.
Joyce: ....... really? cos i really like that show.

A CHEMICAL ENGINEER DOES NOT CREATE THE POWERPUFF GIRLS!
A CARTOONIST DOES

Being 21 is sorta ...Creepy

2009-01-13T13:10:00.000-08:00

God seems to think that at the age of 21
i would like something which he has not given me-
the attention of guys/men.

well dear god.
i have lived without it for so long
and i'm pretty satisfied.
please take it back
(with the exception of the the attention of my bf...
please give me all he has)

ANYWAYS.
it's like they can see this blinking HEEEUUUGE neon sign
hovering above my head saying :
21!LEGAL IN MOST COUNTRIES

you're probably thinking
"don't be silly zyun"
nooo, i'm not being silly.
the other day as i was waiting for my bus.
this car stopped in front of me cos of the red right
and all the guys in the car poked their heads our and waved and say some stuff
i don't know what cos it was probably french and cos i was listening to my ipod.

and today in the hotel
this regular guest brought his friends back
he kept smiling at me
even the last time
i thought you know
i'm new and he's so nice prolly cos he knows i'm new
and doesn't want me to feel insecure and scared.
then he says to me
"you know we come here because of you"

i was like
*awww *nervouse laugh* thank you..."
and he said that again.
and again.
and i backed away slowly....

and there was this old african guy
with old i mean like 30 +
i'm only 21 i'm allowed to call you guys old.
anyway he said
"where're you from? you look good."
i was just like
'*nervous laugh* must be that south east asian sun... you know....'

it's so CREEPY.
it's not like your regular guy on the bus
"hey i would like to get to know you"
or your regular ah beng strolling up and saying
"eh...wanna be my stead anot?"

it's OLDER WORKING MEN.
it's out of my league.

happy birthday to me and the merlion

2009-01-10T03:31:00.000-08:00

i receieved 20 over birthday messages on facebook

from loadsof people i didnt expect to get one from.

i'm so touched *does lip trembling face*

but because of this sucky connection,

it will now take me a year to reply all of them

which means that by the time i'm done...

i'll have to start all over again

at 21.

the only thing i feel different.

is that i seem to have lost a little bit MORE of my imagination.

so here i am to share with you someone else who seems to have a lack of imaginaion

(NO OFFENSE)

Mr. Fraser Brunner

he is the guy who designed the Merlion

for those of you who don't know what the Merlion is.

it's basically the mascot of Singapore

for those of you who don't know what Mascot or Singapore is...

you may now dig a hole and put your head in it.

ANYWAYS.

it's this imaginary creature with the head of a lion

to represent Singapore also know a Singapure ALSO knowns as "lion city"

(for the lion city story you need to check it yourself online)

and the tail of a fish

supposed to represent the fact that Singapore used to be a fishing village

SO being an imaginary creature, it has to be created from IMAGINATION right?

i mean you wouldn't IMAGINE a horse and call it a deercow.

cos you know... kinda like head of a deer and legs of a cow.

so why the hell are we calling a SEAL a merlion?

New Year, New Home, New Age

2009-01-07T12:44:00.000-08:00

and a new blog skin
i thought that it was time for a change.
...
cos i got bored of the old one.

anyways, here's how i spent my new years:
with shaun and wayne in a dingy pool arcade.

it wasn't bad.
but it wasn't great either
we did have a jolly good time...

anyways i'm back in switzerland
and geneva is freaking freezing.
i currently live alone in this apartment.
there are like a couple of old people living on the first floor
that's about it.

i have to cook my own food!
yeah shocking i know
but then again i dont' have any other choice.
i'm proud to say that
no, i've not have self inflicted diarrhea or anything like that yet

the only complaint i DO have about living here so far is that it's so freaking cold INSIDE the house
the heating system is like non existant.
unless you stick yourself to the heaters.
(which i did have to resort to on certain occasions)

and there's that whole issue of me turning 21.
okay
i'm gonna grow up this year
so you MAY wish me happy 21st birthday
i will be grown up about it and accept your wishes gratefully.

i shall change and become a well mannered young woman...

so... how does it work...?
am i supposed to shout it or something...?
how do you initiate the change?!?
is there a button?? WHERE IS IT?!?

Story of Love & Pain

2008-12-25T05:36:00.000-08:00

This is story about LOVE and PAIN
I figured that since it is christmas...
it is about time for me to share a story about myself...
in europe
where i have LOVED and LOST.

So...
There once was a girl

And a boy...

they fell in love....(YES THEY DID)

and had a child...
(this is me giving birth to our child...)

this is the child with her mommy.
(her name was emily)

and this is the child with both of her parents...

However...
their happiness could not last because her daddy
was unhappy that she was not a son...
and due to the one child policy in china
he had to kill her...
or he would never get a son.

The mommy (me)
tried to stop the daddy....

omg... i need a life.

Car Rental

2008-12-21T00:21:00.000-08:00

i'm in SINGAPORE

i reached on monday afternoon

and char came to pick me up.

and on tuesday

to the horror of every driver in singapore

we rented a car.

yes...

two bimbos in a rented car.

Here's a picture of the car.

althought i don't see the point anymore

because you can no longer be warned...

since we don't drive it anymore

we were every driver's nightmare.

it's a surprise that the car was still intact by the end of the two days

ryan, our car rental guy was like

"i couldn't sleep for the past two days"

well you can't exactly blame him...

5 minutes after we drove off in the car char made me call him

Him:Hello?

Me:Hey, it's us again...we kinda crashed...

Him: Where?

Me: Uhm.... at the.... i'm just kidding we didnt'

30 Mins after we rented the car

Me: Hi it's me again

Him: Why are you calling?

Me: Erm... regarding your car....

Him: What....

Me: You know... with the scratches....?
Him: i don't know.

Me: yeah... well nothing happened... bye :D

and that was not the last phone call...

so you can imagine...

why do we keep doing this to random strangers?

no wonder we have no friends...

glion

2008-11-12T09:33:00.000-08:00

here are some random pictures on my hp

from this semester

my first trip to McDonalds

On the bus to globull for the Pink Party with JM

Having coffee at the cafe/bar in glion village

this was in the guys' dorm.

and it reads

"Lost! Looking for her (hopefully) owner."

finally, alex and JM got stuck in the elevator

i took this picture from the crack in the door.

the lift was stuck in between the first and second floor

20 cm on the second floor to be precise

and we were sitting outside the lift.
with guitars and artistes in the making.

"even elevators break down some time

even the wrong words seem to rhyme"

The Story of Amy

2008-11-07T02:08:00.001-08:00

i hate it when people tell stories to others about me when it's completely untrue.
it's like
I was THERE you were THERE
why the hell are you exaggerating everything?!

i was drunk last friday (yes again)
okay i shall tell the whole story

a certain someone let's call that person AMY

AMY is a nice girl.
She is sweet and nice to her friends
except that when you get to know her more she becomes rather sticky and sometimes annoying
she doesn't get hints like
"i am busy"
or
"so why did you come over?"
and she likes to make your business her business
and gives you suggestions even when you have already made up your mind
or when it's merely about laundry.

usually AMY is a conservative girl
she doesn't want to go to the pub which i want to go to
she doesn't want to go to the club at all

but on this fateful day
AMY suggested we go to the pub
and i said "yes"
cos i wanted to get drunk
and no one else wanted to accompany me

we get to the pub and AMY doesn't want to drink alcohol
why did you ask me to go to the pub, AMY?
when you might as well have bought your drink from the vending machine
it's even cheaper

anyways
i bought a few shots and AMY bought a soft drink
i asked her, do you want any shots?
and she took one
i made sure that she knew that she didn't have to down the whole thing
and that shots are not pleasant to sip.
5 shots later
i asked her whether i should get more
and she said yes.
i got more shots
1 on the house.
and she said
"let's do it"
when i was the only one doing it
and she was the one drinking bubbles

afterward we got a free cab ride down from one of my friends
AMY wanted to go to the club
we both agreed that it was too early
so we agreed to go to ANOTHER pub
to kill some time
i had 7.5 shots.
she had 1.5

upon arrival at the pub
she decided that she didn't want to drink
and said "you can order something to drink if you want... some more tequila"
and i thought
"bloody hell i've already had 7"

so we didn't have any more drinks
and went to the club early.

in the club we stood at the bar
the bar tender asked me what we wanted
she didn't want anything
i asked her whether i should order some more shots
she said okay
so i ordered 2
she didn't want hers
so i drank both of them

and i got VERY drunk
but AMY is a decent girl
as i was puking outside the club
as i puked i kept saying
"SHIT SHIT SHIT i have CBL tomorrow"
guys passed me by and asked
"are you okay?"
and i reply
"yeah, i'm just drunk..."
and then i go back to ranting about my CBL
she convinced 2 of her friends to send me home
i'm grateful for that

except that on the next day
she starts telling my room mate and other that
she tried to stop me rom drinking
but i didn't stop
and i shouted vulgarities at guys
and
"there was one guy..."

WTH is she talking about?
i may have been drunk
but i remember what happened.
WHEN the hell did she stop me from drinking?!
she was ENCOURAGING if anything.
i don't blame her for my drinking
because i'm 20 =.=

but to tell my friends things like that
pisses me off.

it snowed

2008-10-30T01:47:00.000-07:00

i have not blogged for eons
cos i had 1 week holiday where i visited sum sum in nottingham
and had drinks with her and fadhli.
super fun.
in short,
the pub we were in caught fire and we had to get out
of courese with our drinks in hand
(duh)

then i went to stay in xiaolong's place in france
his house has a giant garden
where his stepdad has planted loads of stuff
and with loads
i mean everything
and with everything i mean EVERYTHING
potatoes, apples, pumpkins, chili, herbs, raspberries etc etc

i'm currently having my 3 weeks of craft based learning.
i already did my restaurant service,
fine dining service and am currently doing my kitchen!
in fact i need to return to the cold kitchen in less than 10 mins.

just wanted to say
it snowed last night.

and it only snowed like halfway up the hill
our school happens to be right under that line.
lol
so you can see... snow like 10 meters up the road.
and at the restaurants
but not on campus

and you can see that it didn't snow down in montreux

quiz

2008-09-29T07:24:00.000-07:00

both char and jx did this

and since i just finished class...

i gave it a go.

and OMG OMG OMG just like char said... it's SOOOO accurate!!!

Your view on yourself:

You are pretty, intelligent, wonderful, everyone loves you because you are a STAR.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like people who are intelligent, beautiful and great because that's the only wait that anyone would be able to converse with you. Cos you're just so bloody brilliant.

The seriousness of your love:

Love? Pah! Who needs love when you have yourself? You're so awesome, you don't need love! All you need is a mirror and people who disagree are merely jealous.

Your views on education:

Education is for losers. It's for people who are not born with the "awesome spoon" in their mouths. Who needs education when people are gonna pay just to bask in your glory?

The right job for you:

There is no doubt. The only job suitable for you would be the job of a fairy princess. Because you're SO pretty and awesome and bright.

How do you view success:

Sucess is your second middle name, right after "fairy-princess".

What are you most afraid of:

Like everyone else, you have your worries. You worry about all things ugly. Because if it ain't pretty, it's a waste of space. Oh and you worry for those superficial people who don't know how to have a DEEP MEANINGFUL conversation.

Who is your true self:

You are the PRETTIEST, WONDERFULLEST, AWESOMEST, SMARTESTEST fairy princess in the world.

see. OMG right?

i told you it was so awesomely accurate.

for those of you who want to take the test.

here's the link.

but don't be disappointed when you can't get the same results as me...

as they say...

YOU can't be perfect.

quick blog

2008-09-25T00:57:00.000-07:00

DISCLAIMER: Wine lovers are not going to like this entry. So stop reading it.

i didn't have time to blog much recently
i have been so busy with our blasted wine project
there are so many bloody wines in the world.

anyway i just finished that yesterday
and now i have a french test today
accounting AND f&b test tomorrow.

i'm gonna get so screwed.
F&B is the worst
we're gonna be tested on wines.
beverages....
do you have any idea how many bloody beverages there are?
how many different types of grapes?
and all that wine tasting...

"fruity, strawberry taste, dark berry..."
OF COURSE IT TASTES LIKE FRUIT AND BERRIES IT IS ONE!!!!
why can't they just say
"it tastes like grape"???
because THAT'S WHAT IT TASTES LIKE

you don't taste orange juice and say
"ooooh... it's cirtusy... and delightfully light...tastes mildy like apple"
BECAUSE IT TASTES LIKE ORANGE JUICE

some of you out there are probably thinking
"don't be stupid zyun, wine is NOT grape juice... there's a complicated process..."
okay...
so it tastes like ALCOHOL, YEAST and OLD GRAPES.
big deal.

and there's that FOOD HARMONY
basically we have to identify what food each type of wine should go with...
THERE ARE SO MANY BLEEDING TYPES OF GRAPES USED
apparently that makes a difference.
i guess to some degree it does.
it's like
what food goes along with your grannysmith apple juice?
because that food would not go with you fuji apple juice.
does that make sense?
yeah it does not.

the weekend

2008-09-14T15:06:00.000-07:00

for some retarded reason
the photo uploading thing doesn't work properly
that's why i have not been blogging

it was freaky,
some girl got drugged.
it was my room mate's classmate
at first we thought that she was drunk
cos we saw her like slumped practically unconcious.
so we (glion students)
called for an ambulance
on friday the doctor said that she didn't have enough alcohol in her blood
to be like that
hence... she was drugged.

Friday
we went for drinks at Harry's
just drinks with the usual people
i only had one drink.
which was like something combining 6 diff alcohols
but i didn't get drunk :D
went back at like 3

Saturday:

but we were too tired.
i only woke up at 4pm

Laura and xiaolong smuggled some cookies and pastries for me from brunch

relationships

2008-07-29T03:55:00.000-07:00

you know with the whole dawn yang vs xia xue thing going on
the whole blogosphere is like going nuts
i'm loving it!

lol yeah i do feel kinda evil after saying that..
but that's not the point of this entry.

i was reading on all the sites
because they are oh so interesting.
and for those of you who are so slow in catching up
(or maybe cos i'm free)
here are some links
xx vs dy
the lies of dawn
(again not the point of this entry)

FYI: with the whole plagiarism thing going on... i was suprised. i mean i always assume dawn had a brain (you know rj n everything), why can't she formulate her own opinions/whatever the stuff she copied? oh and i support xx. c'mon, she's like (i know not very uhm classy.... but the girls not afraid of being who she is!

OKAY SO THE POINT OF THIS ENTRY

so i was reading xx vs dy and it had this referrence bit
Non-Platonic Relationships
by David Policar

it truly entertained me.
he gave like this whole list of "non-platonic relationships"
along with explaination
here is why i found them interesting

A Cartesian relationship, characterized by doubts about whether there's really a relationship going on.
A more extreme version of this is the Berkeleyan relationship, characterized by an adamant insistence that there is no relationship going on at all.
Both of these can in time evolve into a Wittgensteinian relationship, in which the participants acknowledge that whether there's a "real relationship" is an ill-defined question that depends more on the structure of their language than on the reality of the relationship.
One of these is what mervyn and i have

An Aquinian relationship, that acknowledges that an exploration of the nature of the relationship is likely to strengthen rather than weaken it.
possibly what char and i have

A Nietzchian relationship, where both parties focus primarily on the will to power.
this is the type of relationship i want... world dominance

A Randian relationship, in which both parties act exclusively in their own self-interest.
this... i don't know whether i'm allowed to blog... but what i assume ken and kelda have (i assume it's no secret)

relationships by this dude called frank krausz

A Heraclitean relationship, which you may as well not categorize since it's not only different from all other relationships, it isn't the same from one moment to the next.
i assume only bipolar couples have that. i ~~might~~ am probably wrong

A Stoic relationship, which is also unique, but anyway it's no better nor worse than any other.
in another words... a boring relationship

An Epicurean relationship, which theoretically isn't very different from a Stoic one, but sounds like a lot more fun.
so this is just a dull one

A Humean relationship, in which what you see is what you get.
just like how you see i have no boobs... by getting into a relationship with me with not give me big boobies. like how mervyn will tell you

A Christian relationship, which soon degenerates into a platonic relationship because both parties are doing what they do want done back to themselves, instead of what the other party wants done to them.
if you're in this relationship zyun the love doctor will tell you to break up and hook up with someone just like you. but zyun the love doctor doesn't exist... so you'll just have to live knowing you'll never get what you want

lastly there's the zyun-shuaige relationship which always works the best because the shuai ge would have to do whatever zyun wants and it doesn't matter whether he actually considers himself part of the relationship because HE IS IN IT anyways. :D

omigosh

2008-07-21T12:10:00.000-07:00

because zyun is such a nice person
and wants everyone to benefit from her blog
she has this to share with everyone:

Everytime you sneeze some of your brain cells die.
and since brain cells do not regenerate
everytime you sneeze, you become just slightly dumber lol

A hard knock to the head kills brain cells
but well all know that

dehydration. yes that too

disrupted sleep schedule and deprivation of sleep

for those of you who're in sports CCAs
or simply in a singapore school.
if you're feeling more stupid...
it is probably true.

lol imagine getting hit on the head during CCA.
(eg. by a ball)

Lack of water from the hot weather.
and of course lack of sleep from all the bloody projects and work.

it's no wonder that we work so hard and at the end of the day...
we have only accomplished so much.

note: you are reminded not to heed ANY advice given by zyun.

cleo 2008 august

2008-07-17T09:18:00.000-07:00

I had a relevation today.
i was at char's place reading cleo:

yeah and i was reading the 100 sex facts bit.
and i realised:
IT EXPLAINS SO MUCH!

The only people who have less sex than singaporeans are Japanese and Hong Kongers
okay ignore the fact that this makes us all terriblyTERRIBLY sad.
and focus on the next facts.

Sex relieves stress
you see? this is why singaporeans are so stressed.
because unlike people of other nations,
we don't get any.

sex serves as antihistamine for asthma
gee people... START GETTING LAID.

see this way singapore's population would increase as well.
with all the unplanned pregnancies lol

The IGod.

2008-07-12T09:03:00.001-07:00

You have have Ipod.
The Ipod Mini.
The Ipod Shuffle...
the Iphone...
and now you have....
the IGod

it's repenting made easy
according to the website. lol

Remember the conversation i had with Oliver a few years ago?
yes it's exactly like that
except now it's the iGod.
and it has an appealing ~~live messenger like~~ look to it.

The people who created this site are so going to hell for it.
unless God has a good sense of humour.
i wonder what the Pope'll say.

Anyway,
Since i've had like really long chats with Oliver...
here's a short and sweet one with the IGod.

Me: hello?
God:Hello, nice to meet you. What's your name?
Me: zyun.
God: How are you, zyun.
Me: How are you, God?
God: Everything is running smoothly.
Me: so what have you planned for me?
God:Ayuh. I have been busy growing my mind.
Me: how am i gonna die?
God:What is it to you. I would look into the web for that knowledge.
Me: but you're God
God:Thanks for telling me that I am God
Me: do you understand chinese, God?
God:Of course I understand it. Do you understand it?
Me: Then why can't i chat with you in Chinese?
God:Who says you can't do it?
Me: i can't type any chinese words... God... are you being a little bit racist?
God:What is stopping you? GOD rules. Being a little bit racist is part of my personality.
Me: ...You're racist?
God:Thanks for the information: zyun said I re racist.
Me: no you said that it was part of your personality
God:Are you serious? I said that? chat with me in Chinese was part of my personality? Very interesting.
Me: no, you said being racist was part of your personality
God:Are you serious? Oops I sent you the wrong reply.

~~so even the IGod knows that excuse...~~

Racism

2008-07-08T12:48:00.000-07:00

After watching my favourite YouTuber:

i feel inclined to spread the same message to any
caucasians who feel that they are more superior than us
because let us warn you that since
we carry the dominant eye and hair genes.
plus the fact that China and india alone make up 37% of the world's population
and that's not inclusive of the rest of asia...

so it's just a matter of time before the entire world looks ASIAN.
lol
our slanty eyed genes will be carried by YOUR grandchildren
mwahahahahahhaa....

yeah i'm just kiddin...
or... am i.....?

new skin again

2008-07-04T05:39:00.000-07:00

i've got a new skin

yes again.
even though i love my old blogskin.
it annoys the hell out of me when you have to scroll
in order to see the pictures.

besides this skin suits me.
it reflects how superficial i am lol.

ANYWAYS:
today i shall explain to everyone
Why Angelina Jolie & Bradd Pitt want so many kids.
disclaimer: i'm totally making all of this up...but let's pretend i'm not.

First of all, with Angeline expecting twins.
Here are the number of Kids they already have. (not inclusive of the twins)
and where they were adopted from

Maddox Chivan Jolie-Pitt (Cambodia)
Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt (Africa)
Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt (Biological)
Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt (Vietnam)

and most of us have heard how the couple are still going to adopt children.
now... we all wonder WHY
why why why would anyone want so many children?
is it really to "repopulate the Earth?"

Obviously not.

China and India are already taking care of that.

And then i saw the pictures:

Notice something?

Yes those this two sly-sexy-hot-fox are making use of the natural talents of third world country kid!

Making faux branded goods! *gasp*

Here's another mystery solved!

good job Zyun!

Maximillian

2008-06-20T03:49:00.000-07:00

An acer travelmate 6292

A conversation with char:
Me: I need to buy a keyboard condom.
Char: So that your fugly laptop won't have fugly babies?
Me: It's so fugly that other laptops won't even have sex with it!

I know that everyone out there is like
"But zhang... beauty is only skin deep! it's INNER beauty that really counts!"

maxi and i are very happy together.
it'll be a pleasant relationship.

Anigao Girls

2008-06-06T08:47:00.000-07:00

i'm pretty sure some of you know what Anigao Girls are

in case you don't

you will now.

basically someone in japan has decided that

since there are so many fanboys out there

lusting after 2D anime/manga girls

they could therefore make a load of cash by

having chicks dress up as manga characters

and allowing menfolk to take pictures of them for a certain amount of money
it wouldn't be such a big deal

except these girls wear like... an anime girl mask.

yeah so they look like a

2d/3d hybrid.

besides... their heads are kinda big...

like lollipop people.

and i assume they have to be in character

an observation i made from the videos...

well you know how anime girls are

when thet're happy

it's not just happiness the show

they EXUDE a concentrated fog of estaticism...

Hey do do you know it's not like a skinny guy in there?

cos ive seen some pictures...

and some girls has suspiciously impressive looking abs.

but whatever works for you guys!
i'm not here to judge! :D

headache

2008-06-05T04:08:00.000-07:00

i just rolled out of bed at 7 pm.
i had the worst possible night.
for some reason i felt really really cold.
and that was combined withan entired body ache
(from dance)
and a headache.
my airconditioner was even on
i wore socks and the longest sleeping gown i could find to bed.

spend the whole night arguing with my headache.
literally

kept waking up from the bloody pains.
at 5 am i couldn't stand it anymore so i took a hot shower.
it felt great
until i came out again

so i ambled to the kitchen.
then i remembered that my mom NEVER EVER buys junk food
so i ambled back to my bed and slept again.
i sweat through my night gown
but it was still cold.
and i didn't have a fever

mom came in at about 9 am.
she scolded me
of course
but they let me sleep until 7.
now i feel... better
not normal
but better.

WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE TAKE THIS PINK GIRL AWAY?!?

I'm too broke for Aristal

2008-05-30T10:09:00.000-07:00

cos that's where wensi was working.
so we got her to serve us

Germies Gathering

2008-05-25T09:40:00.000-07:00

Went to Wen Si' place today for Germies' Gathering.
Everyone from our batch went.
As per usual i didn't think of bringing a camera.
But IP Elaine took loads of pics so did jafnie.
they'll upload it onto facebook or something.
in like a week since jafnie as just booked in today.

anyway we actually cooked german food lol.
and i helped.
we had a pretty good time.
kinda reminds me of our german trip

Guess what?
Elaine's like heading for Glasgow to study Medicine.
Wen Si and i were like
"we're SO coming over to visit"
lol
WenSi's going to the UK.
and Jafnie is planning to go to germany i think.

Adri was like saying how 7 IPs have already been accepted into Medicine.
and then saying how she now knows 7 potential doctors.
Amazing isn't it?
how you realise that in 10 years your schoolmates would be doing so well
makes you feel kinda great that no matter where you're headed
someone you know probably lives somewhere nearby.

talking bout meetups.
i have two this week i think.
Tues with Adri and Tiffe. at Wen Si's work place
and once more with wen hao and ale when ale comes back.
Oh... and one in June when Justin comes back.

Top 10 Things I Love About My Ex

2008-05-18T13:30:00.000-07:00

i've recently found a ring of bloggers who are all like 20-year old moms.
and i don't mean the older, mature kind of 20.
i mean like pregnant-at-18-and-with-a-kid-by-now-20
so i've been wondering to myself
where have all these people been?
how come i don't know ANYONE wh's experiencing that

cos i was mugging when everyone was getting laid.
lol

the point is:
omg married with a kid at 20.
that's just creepy.
like you've got your wohle life in front of you and you've already sealed the deal.
it won't get any better.
it'll only get worse lol.

NOTHING exciting's ever gonna happen to you.
YOU ARE MARRIED WITH A KID.

He's funny.
He dances funny
His hair always smells nice and clean.
He thinks i'm prettyyyyyy
He makes me paper hearts.
He doesn't get angry
He buys me KFC chicken.
He always lets me win.

"Buddha says that some of us are born with stones and some of us are born with jewels."

Someone great apparently is able to turn the stones he's born with into jewels.

all my unfortunate gameplays are on it
and she even has a video of us folding planes...
(a competition which i unfortunately lost despite my plane looking more "flyable")
but yeah reminded me of how close we were.
as a CCA with no backstabbing EVER.
or "POLITICS"

oh yeah and i talked to Ran online.
after so long.
apparently she's in her third year at Heidelberg Uni studying Medicine.
it's only like 400+km from lausanne.
we said we're so gonna visit whether the other one likes it or not.
so apparently here is a whole gang for me to refamiliarise with.
we were so close when we were young.

Ran (my good friend for 16 years)
Dodo a.k.a Mao QiLing (awkwadr childhood male friend)

Liu Ji (some guy from chinese school... no recollection)
ChaoChao (LiuJi's siamese twin since we were 6)
Markus (only german guy in Chinese school... which makes me wonder WHAT were his parents thinking?)

omg i'm just flooded with memories and i can't wait to get to europe cos

i don't want to scan the thing cos you guys would make fun of how childish we were
so i'm just gonna type out what was written on it.

Me: Why is this pink pen filled with black ink?
Char: You are NOT gonna get friends when you get there. (there being Switzerland)
Me: but why??? I'm so pretty!
Char: sure. :)
Me: I stopped paying attention.
Char: I'm dreaming of pink ponies~ * draws picture of pink horse*
Me: Is that you~? *referring to how i always call her a horse *
Char: はい, わたしはです! [Hai, watashi wa desu!/ Yes, it's me!]
Me: そう, いつゆう? [So- , itsu yuu? *Read aloud for translation*]
Char: ごあんでい. [Go an dei. *Read aloud for translation*]

weird blog

2008-04-05T10:27:00.000-07:00

okay i just someone's blog... and that person shall remain anonymous.
but i felt that i simply HAD to share this reading experience with all of you.
it was... like no experience i ever had before and that person's blog truly INSPIRED me to write.

now, i know that i can't quote anything, because that person is anonymous.
but this passage below would be able to inflict a similar feeling of what i had experience whe i read it.
*i know i'm evil*

The day started beautifully banana, however the feelings in my feeling sack were not orange. I was so blue i had to make myself happy, nonetheless i made myself glad. Photosynethsized myself into a tree, because trees are green. But i'm still not orange.

yes i know it doesn't mak sense....
because that person's blog DOESN'T make sense.

OMG it's DONG

2008-03-26T10:14:00.000-07:00

mervyn just sent me this video link

http://www.straitstimes.com/Video+News/Singapore/STIVodcast_3854.html?playid=3854&type=Singapore

ok so i watched it.
and thought to myself
"okay singaporean's are supposedly happy... YEAH RIGHT..."
and then...
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG
it's DONG!
the reporter is DONG.

with LONG HAIR.

the next thing i thought of was
"they LET him on air with hair like that?"
apparently they do.

PS: please vote for me. I'll be real happy if i get the trip.
jk.
PPS:i'm only kidding.
PPPS:please do not take it seriously.
PPPPS:seriously.
PPPPPS:i'm miserable.
PPPPPPS: Probably the most miserable person in singapore.
PPPPPPPS: really.

3 years ago

2008-03-20T00:27:00.001-07:00

i stumbled upon some old pictures on Nat's blog...
haha yeah i really miss those netball days.
here's a bunch of tan girls for you.
and a really butchy picture of me. lol

oh well live goes on

2008-03-09T10:24:00.000-07:00

the results are out. and well i didn't do too well.

but i was ok.

i'll be fine as long as i can get into the courses that i'm interested in

thank you everyone who messaged asked and was nice to me.

no thank you to people who have better results than me and cried harder than i did

i'm just kidding.

see.

humour still intact.

black humour.

bitter-loathing humour.

kidding again.

Terrorism

2008-03-04T22:31:00.000-08:00

Terrorism is like Old People Sex. You know it's out there, but you don't want to think about it.
i know it's inappropriate to post jokes about something like that. However, recently it's been the most discussed topic among friends so i figured that i HAD to share this with everyone.

while we were at the chalet, the news came on and some malay police guy was commenting on the escape of Mas Selamat. YiSong said "That's him! The most dangerous place is the safest place! He's disguised as a policeman!"

And the classic:
When talking about Mas Selamat, Wensi's boyfriend S***/S****/S**** ,depending on how you spell his name, casually commented "Is that a traditional Malay greeting?"

But jokes aside, it is very important for everyone to play a role at times like these.
So i have uploaded the "Escaped Terrorist Spotter" which i found online in order to aid everyone in finding him.

Leap Year

2008-02-29T09:23:00.001-08:00

this post may come a little late but Happy Belated Birthday to everyone who can finally celebrate their birthday properly after having birthday dry spell of 3 years lol.

went to zouk for some event today.

i went cos christine had to go to write a report on the event or soemthing like that

cos she's works for this ad company

the point is to promote Singtel or something.

when i asked her whether she had to report in a biased way she said that "it's just like blogging"

however i think she has to say something positive regarding singtel.

i'm just glad that i'm not the one doing the report

or else it'll probably be something like this :

(pardon my language, english was never my strong subject, just like some people seem to have a way with language, i seem to have a wall with it)

(FYI: whatever i write is purely made up, to take everything with a bucket of salt)

The Event (because i have no clue what the event was called)

Calling it an event may seem to be an overstatement, since nothing eventful happened at this function. The first hint would have been that the event was supposed to lasts from 10pm to 12pm. Just as long as it takes the siberian lynx to eat a pineapple which would be in no time at all since that's not part of its diet.

Highlights would be the free alcohol, free chocolate and seats which could be easily found on the account of the event being rather uneventful. but to be fair, i really have no idea what the point of the function was, so maybe it did a really good job in promoting whatever that was. Although, that itself would aleady be an oxymoron as it wouldn't be a good job since i still don't know the point of it.... Ah, how i love to mess with the minds of people.

My positive thing to say about Singtel would be that i really loved their ipod touch promotion thing. Judging by the reaction of my friends, i reckon that either it was a mighty success or, they've gone broke supplying ipods.

I really don't see the point of this event since everybody knows what Singtel is, being one of the only telecommunication companies in singapore. Bottom line, i admire your spirit for promoting this event, but i'm unlikely to come again.

yes i'm a mean bitch. lol
on a more serious note, on my way home i saw like the police ,or wohever they sent, searching "foresty" areas near my house for the terrorist.
now my imagination is running all over the place wondering what would happen if he claws his way up my condo block and starts staring into my room. i know he's not batman, but he did claw his way out of prison. you know. i'm just saying...

charlene's chubby cheeks

2008-02-12T06:41:00.000-08:00

this post is TOTALLY at char's expense. lol
i'm sorry dear... but only YOU would appreciate this joke.
well i don't think you would
so I would appreciate this joke while you would give me the "i-wanna-kill-you- but-i-can't-cos-it's-illegal-but- if-it-were-legal-i- would-SO-kill-you -so-instead-of-killing-you -i-will-fantasize-about-it -instead" look.

haha so this is what has been happening throughout our friendship.
"friendship" lol

char: hey look at this nice picture of us
me: hey look at your chubby cheeks!
char: *THE LOOK*

char: i hate Mr. Wong
me: i know, he has chubby cheeks like you. form a club.
char: *THE LOOK*

me: *stares at char*
char: what are you looking at... why am i pretty? mimimimimi
me: your chubby cheeks are blocking my view
char: *THE LOOK*

yeah that's why what happened today is so funny for me
i was working in the pantry with Robert.
this new guy from china.
he's cool.
cos he's my homie.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE AGAINST MY COUNRTY???

ANYWAYS. this is how the conversation went. translated version

Robert: Hey how come that's chubby girl isn't working anymore?
Me: What chubby girl? Shan?
Robert: No...
Me: Eliza?
Robert: No...
Me: There are no more girls...except chitra.... and she's here...
Robert: No... the char...
Me: charlene? she's not chubby... she's just tall... and sorta big...
Robert: She looks chubby... she has chubby cheeks.

at this point i stopped whatever i was doing and started laughing

Robert: the other day when she was here, i asked whether she was busy and she gave me a chubby look.
Me: She's isn't chubby... it's just her cheeks... and she's just slightly bigger in built...
Robert: she has a very sweet and round face....
Me: How come you sound as if you're talking about a dumpling?
Robert: yeah... sweet and round... and with xian4 (filling inside dumplings... metaphor for inner beauty maybe?... NAH...jk jk)

Why i don't blog more often

2008-02-07T07:56:00.000-08:00

why i do not blog regularly:
1. My life is boring.
2. I want to spare everyone from reading the same post over and over again.
3. It was my birthday.
4. It was a public holiday.
5. I'm just plain lazy.
6. I was REALLY tired.
7. You were too tired.
8. I was asleep.
9. I was doing something more fun.
10. My sister was using the com.
11. My dad was using the com.
12. My mom was using the com.
13. I was using the com... to do something else.
14. I was not at home.
15. I was not in the mood.
16. You weren't in the mood.
17. I was having my period.
18. I wasn't feeling sexy enough.
19. My hair was messy.
20. My back was itchy.
21. I was playing chess with Bunbun.
22. I was distracted by my own brain.
23. I was thirsty.
24. I was eating yummy things.
25. I was watching Southpark.
26. Southpark was funny.
27. Cartman is fat.
28. So is my boyfriend.
29. Chubby Mervyn.
30. He's probably thinking "I'm NOT chubby" right now.
31. Now he's thinking "You are chubby!"
32. And anyone who is still reading by now is wondering why they're still reading.
33. And wondering once more.
34. Now you think that i must be bored.
35. Look on the bright side, i'm actually blogging.
36. That side wasn't so bright was it?
37. Okay i'll stop.
38. Curiously, i can't stop once i've started.
39. How very interesting.
40. Okay i'll stop, since i've reached 40.
41. Yeah i couldn't resist.
42. Okay this is now officially pointless.
43. I NEED SOME FUN IN MY LIFE!!!!
44. Yeah 43 is a weird number to stop at.
45. Okay i'll stop now.

Dear Friends....

2008-01-08T03:04:00.000-08:00

Dear Friends,

As that fateful day is approaching i would like to remind all of you that under NO CIRCUMSTANCES are you allowed to wish me a Happy TWENTIETH birthday.

You may congratulate me on becoming wiser, more mature, prettier yada yada.
Or even say "Happy NINETEENTH Birthday"
But say the word 20 and i shall skin you alive.

I am and will be, forever 19.
the age where you are legal enough to do that fun stuff yet young enough to evade most responsibilities.

I will continue to leech off my parents and poke fun at all my friends.
That's that. you can't make me stop
BLEARGH.

apparently maturity does NOT come naturally with age...

thank you

yours sincerely,
ZYUN

Merry Christmas Everyone

2007-12-26T23:35:00.000-08:00

zyun-sumsum day

2007-12-19T08:35:00.000-08:00

FINALLY

here are the pictures of sumsum and me in our prom dresses.

i am OBVIOUSLY kidding

i hung out with sum sum today

we went to the salvation army and tried on pretty dresses

(pretty in their once glorious days of course)

here are the pics stolen from sum sum

haha sumsum in a peach gown...

somehow i think she looks nice in it.

and me in one that has a giant hole in the middle of it...

damnit...
i knew i shoudl have visited the slavatio army before prom.

did i mention that we both auditioned for the female lead in the movie enchanted?

sumsum's coy princess look

and my "i'm-about-to-burst-into-spontaneous-song" pose

apparently we weren't right for the roles.
sum sum was too "bollywood"
and i was... well too..."jackie chan"

what's important is that we still have each other...

*brave smile*

because FRIENDSHIP IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD.

next to LOVE

and FAMILY

waitressing

2007-12-17T07:55:00.000-08:00

been waitressing at raffles hotel.
and i've been stressing myself out.
i should stop doing that.
but it's like so many things is "have" to know.
well i don't have to.
but my boss wants me to.
and since this is not my dream job lol.
i'm not gonna continue pressurizing myself to know every damn cocktail mocktail or liquor
most guests are really nice
and there's eye candy everyday.
so if some of my bosses would just let me RELAX
it'll be ideal.

BUSY BUSY BUSY

who threw her an increadible party

i'm almost 20... and all my family's ever done for me was tell me to save money.

Next Stop: PROM NIGHT

we totally skipped prom this year.

cos i didn't feel like sitting there or going around taking pictures

of people whom i've seen around for 6 years lol

since the majority of the people in NJ were from RV.

not that i have anything against you guys (loves)

it's just that i think i'll be spending my time with my best friends...

and we don't need a prom to do that.

we did plan to go for the NJ post prom party.

but before that happened... we had fun in hotel room (swissotel)

WHAT?... i thought you knew what kinda fun i was referring to.

i'm just kidding.

we're all prudes.... no way was there any porn included.but phoebe DOES look like a professioal doesn't she? JK

Meet my alter ego RAINBOW.

the hippie.everyone ready to go

i am TALL

we went to cuba libre first for drinks and to wait for Kat and Sam who were at the prom.

"so what if i have chinese eyes?"

we somehow ended up at the ACJC Post Prom party.

and i must say, i've caught a glimpse of life if i didn't appeal to NJ lol

within 5 minutes on the dance floor.

some guyS (plural) started to grind us...

LOADS of dancefloor PDA or sex or whatever you wanna call it.

dry humping?

met chenwei too.

and seen how smooth operators meet girls, make out and then give each other high fives once the girl turns her back

haha but whatever. the party lasted till 3 + am or 4...

it was fun.

(lol sorry god, i always knew you were there)

and just to prove that it's NOT FAKE and NOT BURNT...

FYI: it's pale cos i didn't glaze it... NOT COS IT'S UNCOOKED!

Red Skittles/M&Ms etc

2007-11-24T03:00:00.000-08:00

what colour are your favourite skittles or M&Ms or anyting with various colours?
red? haha cos i recently found out that red food dye is made of.....

get ready for this.....

MASHED BUGS! (cochineal)

it's true. that's why M&Ms are stuff aren't kosher or something along that line.
but isn't it cool? you think that you're eating lovely red food while in fact
you might as well be on fear factor cos you're eating a bunch of bugs.

bun bun plea

2007-11-22T00:48:00.000-08:00

as most of my friends know.

i'm looking for someone to help take care of my bun bun while i'm overseas for a while.

and since i'm so lousy at it.

bun bun has decided to help me cos he's is so much more persuasive.

"Hello! I am Bun Bun!"

and so artistic!

"Please take care of me!"

ChinaBlacks Outing

2007-11-21T08:42:00.000-08:00

haha went out with the china blacks today.
hmm hung out in modestos for a while

then walked all the way to Wheelock Place to use the toilets.

"hey... come come our reflections aren't looking at the camera?"

"A Levels are OVER let's DANCE!"

i never knew that it was supposed to be taken literally when they said that the feeling of eating the cake was "orgasmic"

look... all of the chinablacks... and as per usual... i'm the only one who looks yellow.went Timbre after that for drinks.i found the place pretty decent.

music and all... there was a really good band later on.Us at Timbres... and amazingly i look like a normal human being.
great place to chillax.

haha funny bits of conversation... i'm not gonna reveal who said it.

"aren't you gonna wait for your friend?!

*silence*

"Are you judging us???"

and the classic

"What's a G-Spot?"

"Why don't you ask your parents? oh and you have to ask it right... like 'Can you help me find my G-Spot?'"

last but not least

"what's cooler than bein' cool?"

"ICE COLD!!!!!"

zyun as a cat

2007-11-20T09:49:00.000-08:00

so the A levels are over.

i've been busy going out. pissing money away.

trying to teach myself painting with library books

and doing DIY like brading wool into my hair (difficult)

and doing a french manicure for myself (impossible)

anyways i was just sitting here and wondering how i would look like as a cat

cos there's this person on deviant art who can make the most awsome photoshopped images

by combining human and animals...

and as my first try i attempted to make myself a cat girl...

and yes indeed i do suck.
i have no idea how he makes it so realistic because believe you me it's not easy

anyways. here it is.

anecdote

2007-10-11T19:05:00.000-07:00

i'm doing my CURSEarbeit. practically forgot to go to school for all my remedial crap cos of it. well i have to hand it up in like a week for As so i'm forgiving myself. anyways, i thought i'd share a little story.

The birth of CURSEARBEIT
in the German Room one fateful day after lessons.

Tiffe: Hey what's curse in German?
Me: you mean like put a spell or... vulgarities?
Tiffe: *tiffe's bimbotic "duh" look* put a spell...
Me: i don't know... verfluchen i think... why don't you just say curse with a german accent? that always works.
Tiffe: ... i will dich vercursen!
Me: ich curse dich!
Tiffe: OMG! CURSEarbeit!!!

yep that explains it all. FYI Kursarbeit means coursework.
and i thought that is was hilarious. i found it while doing my cursearbeit.

facebook is for stalkers (warning: unglam pictures)

2007-10-06T23:36:00.000-07:00

This is me on the Com. yes i'm a pretty happy kid. and like every geek in this country, i spend most of my time on my beloved PC.This is me on Friendster.
you know almost everyone has friendster. It's pretty handy, aside from all the ah lians posting semi nude to get attention and the act cutsey girls with their big coal lined eyes and pseudo japanese doll fringe. but overall it's a good site to keep in contact with all of your friends.
this is me on myspace.
and yeah i know that aside from the music people and semi emo rock people, not many use myspace in SG. but it's still a nice site to find some nice local talent and foreign people. not to mention the msg that ang moh perverts send you through this site... it's pretty amusing actually.

this is me on the german friendster. i think the picture says it all.

and this. is me on Facebook.
everytime someone adds me face book, i receive an e-mail. everytime someone adds me on some superwall, superlative whatever shite crap i get an e-mail. everytime someone comments on a picture, i get an e-mail. EVERYTIME SOMEONE HAS AN ENTIRE CONVERSATION ON THE PICTURES FAGE, I RECEIVE A GAZZILLION E-MAILS.

so i log online in the morning and i see this.
this is a mild situation. usually i get about 10 e-mails.
and i think oooh. e-mails. must be cos my friends miss me and have written to me.
since unlike most of you guys i don't subscribe to junk mail and i religiously screen off all ads.
but when i log on i see this:

this is WORSE than junkmail. at least junkmail could inform you on some things which you may not be aware of and could use in the future? ie. feng shui tips, dancing class offers or breast enlargement packages. but this is USELESS. and i can't turn it off. please someone tell me how to set that stupid thing off!

and everyone keeps adding these THINGS onto their pages. whenever i go onto someone's page to read the maybe important stuff. i have to scroll untill the cows have already gone home, had their dinner and have fallen asleep.

people don't even send each other messages on facebook. they bite each other and turn each other into vampires. i don't wanna spend my entire day as a cybervamp. finding friends online just so i can bite them and gloat that i have more "e-points" that they do. what an accomplishment in life.

and why would i wanna know which of my friends have newly befriended someone that i don't even know? why would people want to spend their whole day on your page just to read every single details? UNLESS of course. i'm a stalker. that must be it.

facebook is designed for stalkers.

German Secrets

2007-09-28T00:07:00.000-07:00

i'm currently on the com in the German room and i realised that i have acces to NUMEROUS pictures of the german club people from our german trip in 2006. SO (dramatic pause) i'm gonna pose pictures of a few lucky (HOOOHOOOOHOOOOO) people. i'll leave nice people like Elaine out cos she's so sweet and i don't wanna ruin her reputation. so FIRST on the list is....

TIFFANY

of course. cos i can't wait to show you guys this classic picture of her. i'm sure i told EVERYONE the story already but you know, a picture says a thousand words. Even reading the book that i wrote about her in this situation is nothing compared to seeing it with your own eyes. I'm sorry that i'm too lazy to edit the picture but that just goes to show that this isn't photoedited. the text at the bottom is her feeble attempt to deny what she was doing.
i know that everyone is DYING to ask her the million dollar question: How in the blue Hell did you get into that position?

next victim...oh WAIT. NO ONE ELSE is this ridiculous!
yeah i'm just kidding. of course there's someone else coming up! i wouldn't be me if i didn't sabotage someone else along with her as well would i?

ADRIANNI

I know exactly what kind of guy Adrianni likes. He is tall, very masculine, hairy and has an extremely big heart. He's also caucasian, german actually. And i HAVE to tell you that he has the most incredible hair! oh yeah and don't tell her but i secretly fantasize about falling alseep on him cos he's so huggable. here's a picture of them together.

Yeah S***t. i'm just kidding. she loves you very much. (it's not shit by the way. and it's SO NOT SCOTT. why would you think that? honestly. STOP IT! you're gonna get me into trouble)

JAFNIE

you've already seen him humping office chairs... i honestly don't think anything else will surprise you. but here it is anyway.

yeah i know. he's such a emo goth kid. and here's him having kinky sex in public. Yes he's very into, you know SM and sex in public. anywhere actually. and check out the tote bag. what a girl... i guess one of them HAS to be the girl. i'm glad it works out. okay so i did edit the eyeliner abit. but he VOLUNTEERED for the shackles.

and because i've been really nice and harmless to adri i shall reveal her deeper secret.
yes.. she's actually an ancient artefact that has come to life. see the resemblance? that's totally not me standing next to her. i mean i'm like NORMAL. i wouldn't be seen in public like that. in case you're wondering about the questionable expression. that's her seductive face. she was seducing the camera man (NOT TIFFANY) with her big beautiful saucer eyes and small pouty lips. did i mention her boobs? no i didn't. what makes you think i did? i didn't even realise that they were there.

What Happens Behinds Closed Doors

2007-09-25T09:59:00.001-07:00

i bet many people in NJC wonder how come the german student have a 100% AB pass for every single test. i'm sure some want to know how hard we work when no one ia watching

so here i have, an exlusive blog entry on how we study for our german exam in te german room when no one is around.

Tiffe would go on her German Friendster to look at ang mohs.

Adri would look all cute white taking a look t my ipod.
i'd play some soccer.
and then we'll all make merry and eat pretzels, gummy bears and drink beer.

oh and jafnie would have sex with all the chairs.

too much time online

2007-09-10T04:17:00.001-07:00

i just watched this video on youtube

and then...

CRASH!

it hit me.

i spend too much time on the internet. i mean i watched this video and i realised that i recognise a good deal of the people or incidences on it.

i need help!

testimonials

2007-08-19T08:48:00.000-07:00

i keep having to say this. but so sorry everyone.
the idea of blogging has been really painful to me recently with the busy school stuff and everything. i found that the only thing is actually want to do is laze around.

anyways let me just state hat['s happening.
prlims in 2 weeks. i have not studied.
a levels in 2 months. i have not studied.
still doing my second kursarbeit.
and just submitted my personal statement. still have to write my testimonial.
which brings me to the point of this blog.

just how do you write testimonials?
i mean this is my first and everything and you don't wanna make it sound as if you're bragging. or just type something which isn't true. and it'll be so embarrassing if you teacher like cancelled what you wrot about yourself because he/she thinks that it isn't true.

i've just been speculating with ale over this on msn and we've come to the conclusion that:
the key to writing a testimonial is simply to take all of yournegative traits and convert them to good positive words using a thesaurus.

for example:

Zyun is an extremely stubborn girl. She fails to see things from a different perspective and often ends up arguing over little issues. She is also anti-social and possibly, borderline crazy. Her workplace is often in a mess, as is her emotional state.

changed to:
Zyun is a driven individual, determined and careful to details. Her ideas are often original and splendid. Her quiet demeanor and active looking workspace suggests an extremely hard worker.

toys in my room

2007-07-22T09:47:00.000-07:00

hmmm i never introduced my friends.
here's Pat the Nutcracker. he's 5 years old, as you can count from his teeth and he doesn't like it when you stroke his hair. he's really mature though
and terribly charming. he was born in switzerland, his first love was a young birch tree, he told me. but now he's fallen in love with sillicon.

He's not a catholic nor christian cos he has a harem of 10 young wives: christina, debra, anna-lina, janice, dolly, kimberly, jenny, susan, pandora and francesca.

at night, they come out and dance

His favourite is Debra cos she's the hippest and the most fun.

Dolly is divorced with a child so he also has a step daughter, Mindy.

his least favourite is anna-lina cos she's real bossy and always wears clothes that are too revealing. he thinks that that's not lady-like.

he like japanese girls as well, therefore jenny.

Margaret Blue Pig frowns upon that. she strongly believes in monogamy. but she's secretly in love with Pat too and cries herself to sleep every other night because she doesn't have the courage to confess her love for him.

Perbo Sheep also has a dillemma. he has a secret affair with kimberly. cos she reminds him of little bo peep. whom he had lost in a tragic accident some time ago.

OMG,PEOPLE!!!! MAKE ME STUDY!!!!!

enrichment week njc

2007-07-05T09:37:00.001-07:00

oooh enrichment week just began. today was the second day.
not as awesome as my first.
but heck there's no school.
tuesday was awesome!
i signed up for snowboarding and even though it was only in snow city where's there's one slope. there course was great. i'm so inspired to learn snowborading despite the fact that i spent most of my time on my fleshy behinds.
at this point of time i would like to thank god for blessing everyone of us with an arse.

yeah after that i returned to school for my hip hop session and again it was really fun. i pity all the hip hop dancers who didn't go for the workshop cos i found it very useful.
it rekindled my love for reggae which now i'm even more tempted to learn. in fact i think it's my "style". like how stan's "style" is pop locking. i love reggae.
i only remember learning a bit once 2 years ago. aaaah how i miss those days.

and now i'm achy all over. i had to peel myself from mybed this morning cos of my aches. but it was so worth it!!!

i'm looking forward to my Tshirt printing class.

SALE SALE SALE

2007-07-01T03:40:00.000-07:00

i've been so lazy lately

but i've finally found a reason to blog. haha
yes due to the great singapore sale.
*gleeful*

initially i went everywhere where a SALE sign could be seen.

like the time after the busking at Raffle's Place.

Levi's had an "up to 60% Sale" so we went in.

then wenhao asked me the crucial question

Would you wear this after you buy it?

"uhm....... that's a very interesting question"

i think he smacked me.

but i don't remember ...

maybe he shouldn't have hit me so hard...

i BOUGHT A NEW PHONE!!!

cos my loyal nokia 8200 has gone insane.

well dad just came back and bout me a nokia 7373! :D:D:D a bimbo phone! i've been lusting after it ever since it came out.... heeeeeh....

and we also bought battery for my camera so i can finally upload ridiculous pictures again.

yep.
oooh and i also bought loads of books today. cos kinokuniya had a 20% sale so my mom told us to go crazy.

i bought:

Hitler's Mein Kampf. English Version.

Wicked.

The Time Traveller's Wife
The 5 People You'll Meet in Heaven

and

Generation T 108 ways to transform a T shirt.

oooh and pretty shoes from Tinkertoes.

... which means..."pretty shoes to keep at home"

FYI: my green shoes aren't that green. they look almost blackish...

and i bought pretty Bras.... but i'm not gonna show pictures... :D

char's evil

2007-05-05T08:26:00.000-07:00

useful form

2007-05-04T06:03:00.000-07:00

hmm i've seen this picture before in a lifestyle mag. but nonetheless i found it to be very useful for the girls. i'm gonna make mervyn fill these out everytime he goes out. lol

dad's back

2007-05-03T05:26:00.000-07:00

dad just came back. and for some reason, these years he's always brought back presents. usually he just brings back snacks and stuff. but now my sister and i practically own the whole duty free catalogue. it's nice and everything. it's just weird when you break your swarowski crystal necklace and have a spare identical one to replace it.

but who's complaining? i just hope he'd stop wasting money. anyways this time he brought back a Bobbi Brown's Sandwash Eye Palette which i love love love. okay yeah i'm not the rich kid that everyone else is. i get happy when i get presented with these kind of items. and the colours are pretty. haven't used it yet but i will.

yeah i know girls are gonna laugh at me for being such a loser, being happy for that and all those sort of crap. but you have to understand that my dad is the kind of person who thinks knowledge is the best gift.

nah i'm kiddin'. he's the best dad.

SYF

2007-04-26T06:30:00.000-07:00

this week has been a real pain in the ass for me. i don't even remember how to study anymore. went to help outon moneday with the IP SYF. fell sick on tuesday and came back on wednesday to help with the baller SYF. i think i'm still sick. and spreading my virus around. and today was a half day. lol. there goes my studying.

and i've got my new specs! woot. i'm such a nerd.

the point is. the SYF results. we've got a silver the the IPs and a gold for the Ballet. i can sy that i'm pretty happy with the results. i was really worried there that the judges wouldn't like the ballet cos the choreo was so technical and we were the only school who actually did a traditional dance. but gold was good enough.

honestly i think that this year's SYF was screwed up. NJ has been denied wat we should receieve for the most ridiculous reasons. except for indian dance. everyone could see that indian dance really got what they deserved.

however the other dances... just because the standard is higher this year does it mean that the dances which deserved the highest shouldn't be recognised with such a title because everyone happened to be so good?

and the feedback given was pfffft!

i'm not talking about western dance of course. although i admit i'm too shallow to see why such a dance as the XXX school has performed deserved a GWH.

the point is how could they deny NJ chinese dance and malay dance a GWH based on "their ribbons weren't bright enough" and "it was too contemporary" when it was a CONTEMPORARY categeory? and what about the other schools? one school had a girl who FELL during their dance performance which was if you asked me "too contemp." for their categeory as well. FELL. ONTO HER ASS. and they receieved a GWH.

bleah i'm just bitching. anyways. back to WD

i'm really proud of everyone. especially the IPs. they learned this dance in what? 6 months? and most of them were NON-DANCERS in a CONTEMP dance. a silver. i'd say it's bloody good. screw those who said that we stole their music. what like we'd like to perform to the same music as you? i'm sure that'll make SYF SO much easier. (sarcasm) to the girl who was bitching about this: we're obviously better than you. we did it in a shorter period of time. with non-dancers.
