A good news and a bad.
Khoo revised my grade and i am happie abt it. He is the dream prof u wanna turn to beg fer grades, i am serious. But then again, i reallie hate to do this. I am the kind who takes the grades given to me as it is, but MA is a different story, i pinned so much hope on it and i buang-ed it...damn! But then again, i am glad i asked fer a review. Who will reject a betta GPA leh? haha
After gettin my grade, i went to gf's hse fer og gatherin. The turnout was not bad and we had fun. Esp the zong ji mi ma game...the forfeit was act stingray at one point in time, and i dun mind kenna-in lor...haha But it is the 7-8-9 game that killed me. Thanks to yw, i dunno drink how much la and considerin i am not a drinker, i was red and high. Kept laughin ( as usual la, and maybe that's y yw wanted to sabo me) and even the slightest thing could make me laugh non-stop. Next time cannot play that game with yw, bad fer my liver ya...haha
Now there's smth i wanna share with u pple readin my blog and that's is the quote of the day, coined by me and hy in food haven while waitin like love-sick gers fer Khoo's call. It goes like this:"There is a little bastard in every guy, it's jus how much they wanna show it."
I find an element of truth in that statement. Well, it's my point of view and it's up to u to have urs too :) Chew on it!

I am a lucky girl.
Feel reallie blessed at the yacht club todae. Except for the minor screw up with the dumb taxi driver whu insisted that the SAF Yacht club and Sea sports club are at the same place, then dropped me at the wrong place. But its ok, the shuttle was actually on his way to tanah merah (the place i took the cab from) and then back to SAFYC. So i ended up at the right place after a little detour. On the way, chatted with a staff from the SAFYC who happen to be teachin sailing at the Sea Sports Club. He is damn funny, actually asked me if i were a sailing instructor too...i was like, no, i am too fair to be one...haha
But the blessing in disguise is yet to come. Firdaus helped me check the timin for the shuttle bus to get me to tanah merah interchange but the dumb shuttle dun follow the timin at all, and told the reception that they dunno when they will return, best la!! And the receptionist wasn't the least helpful, she jus said, "Cab?" Damn!!
I called the cab operator and after waitin fer 2 rounds of music, no cabs wanted to come into the ulu pandan part of singapore to pick me. No choice, either i walk out to get a cab (abt 4 km from the mainroad i tink), or hitch a ride. I chose the latter, for obvious reasons. And my first attempt was successful, the uncle agreed readily and even joked, " Welcome to my mercedez (it's a toyota)" and we laughed if off. I was seriously veri happie abt and tot my luck couldn't have been betta. So the sayin that good things come after a misfortune is true! I can feel it comin...betta things on the way man!!
So i happily got a ride to expo and i conclude that i am a lucky ger! It was also great chattin to the uncle who said that he is lookin for an accountant after hearin that i am pursuing an acct degree. haha and I asked him whether he would prefer a SMU or NTU acct grad, he told me he prefers Malaysian grads. Ok, so to all out there, this is a siren man, our future rice bowls may well be snatched by our frens over on the other side of the causeway.

Shagged.
Only had 8 hours of sleep fer 2 days.
It's the only reason i could conjure for missing my bus stop on the way home from tampines. And the mistake cost me a ten min walk to where i could take my next bus home. Crap. Tired and walking jus dun mix. Gonna sleep early tonite to make up for the late nites. Hope nothing out of the blue deters me from my aim. And nothing will lessen my determination to sleep early tonite. Yeah!
Well, went down to Sun Dac for LTB part 2. Had a short interaction with the clients and I feel reallie good abt it. Been a month since the last time we went down. The feelin was jus great when i saw how excitied the clients were when they started nudging and calling out names when they saw familiar faces in the video we compiled for them.
The verdict: All the late nites were worth it. Rite, Luke? And i wanna thank Ray fer staying up to accompany me even though he oso veri shagged. Haha, thanks ya :)
Btw, if T.R.E happens to read this entry, rem our ubin trip is still on leh, dun gey siao gey siao forget ya...haha
Happie hols!!

So many things have been goin thru my mind...even after exams and the thoughts keep on comin and i seem to be goin nowhere...no conclusions and i see no light. The amount of thinkin i did this semester greatly exceeds what i could have thought through in a few years, so much so that i feel much happier when i was younger and life was so much simpler. Wonder if this was what jiahui termed "quarter-life crisis" or is it part and parcel of life that i was totally not prepared for.
Still totally un-enlightened despite all efforts to gain enlightenment. All along i tot i have some level of intelligence, but when it comes to relationships, i admit i am half as proficient as a sec sch kid...Still haunted by the past i cant help but be trapped...right now i dun need explanations, reasons or wat shit...all i need is time...yeah, that's wat i need...
The end of one marks the beginnin of another.
I beg to differ.

Yeah, that's wat khoo is. Professional Killer. I tot i was prepared to be shocked and stunned by his paper yesterdae but he still manages to shock and stun me more. It's quite funny to hear me and jiahui taking turns to sigh and there was once when the 2 of us were reading qn 3 and we both sighed at the same time so we laughed at our timely exasperation...and the invigilator immediately, i repeat, immediately walked over to our row on my left...but we jus go back to reading the question. Sian, quite demoralised by the darn paper, all the numbers i churned out all so weird but no choice, i have to write it down, i know somewhere somehow will get wrong one...jus hope it wun take my A away...if that happens, i noe i screwed up my paper BIG time!!
Finally down to my last paper. Had 2 tough papers alr so i hope and pray that the IBM retiree would be nice and set some easy paper, since we are not gettin some mcq paper, i jus hope he will make it up by givin us an easier paper so that i can crap correctly. Aniwae, tmr is the last day of school and my last day of being a freshie. Cant believe that 2 sems passed jus like that, even thou the process was...well, excruciating!! Lalala, 3 months plus of hols waitin fer me after tmr, but will it be pure bliss as i had hoped? It feels like the end of the semester is the start of another "sem" of busy life...But i tink it wun be as bad as this sem, at least no 10 page report to write, no learning journals to crap, no stats assignment to do, no MA tests to study fer...sounds good to me now...haha
But then again, this sem is still rather fruitful...I got closer to peeps like huiying, xinyan, jiahuan, sher and yiling...although i knew then since last sem, it is this sem that i feel that we all got closer...screw all the hyprocricy in smu, I am glad i have them :) And xinyan, rem our spinster house yeah!! Shld start recruitin alr, if not end up with the 2 of us then we got no monies to pay fer our hse leh...hee
okies, gonna start studyin fer TWC alr, left 2.5 more chapters, cant believe i oni read 0.5 chapters yesterdae...hiaz

First and foremost, i wanna thank sue ann fer invitin me to jz's commissionin parade...first time goin to one and its reallie quite an experience...jus realised how freakin big SAFTI can be when u are in a hurry...ended up sittin in the first row with the big TV in front of us. Was tryin to help sue locate jz but its reallie difficult when he is in the squad behind tha air force and i dun have bionic eyes ya...and the worst thing is they all look the same with the uniform and cap, was tryin to find the darkest guy ard but sadly, the guy whom i can make out to be darker happened to be an indian...hiaz, cheers!!
Well, so far so good, saw a few familar faces at the parade...got peeps like kin fei, crystal (I hope i rem the name correctly), ivy and jacklyn and another ger whom i found damn damn familar but i cant rem where i know her from so i jus smile at her and she jus smiled back...until now i still cant figure out how i know her and cos of wat oso...my memory is failin me ya :( Hmm, but the thing that i wan to bitch abt is wat happened after the parade when me and sue want to get back to boon lay mrt. Jz say got free shuttle bus that will bring us to boon lay mrt, and i was happie to hear that cos that would mean we could save on cab fare...haha went to the place where jz directed us to "u all walk that way, behind the red house" and so we went there and saw a small group of pple oso waitin fer the bus so we jus joined in the wait. One bus came and left, one cadet stod opp and left after the first bus left, the 2nd bus came and left and we are like fools waitin opp the road...we were like duh??? so instead of being passive, we deicided to wake towards the direction which the buses were comin from so that we could board the next bus. Once we started walkin, the rest also followed us cos they saw no point continuin their wait at the no bus "bus-stop". After abt 5 mins of walk, we reached carpark G where another 2 cadets were stationed so sue asked where can we get to the pick-up point for the shuttle bus out of SAFTI and they said "it's veri far leh", then we told him of wat happened and he said "ok, we will get the buses to change the pick-up point to here, give us FIVE minutes". Ok, great so they are gettin the buses over instead of us walkin to the correct pick-up point.
One bus came, stopped and left, the 2nd came and likewise, left. By then i was pissed alr, i was like come on, we can get up the bus, its full..yes, but there is the aisle fer us to stand my dear OCS trainees!!! I couldn't take the sight of more buses leavin without me so i told the 2 cadets that we can all stand, its better than us jus waitin there and more and more pple are gatherin by then. The next bus came and the guy tried to get us up and that's when i saw the bureaucracy and and inflexibility of the army...
Cadet A: Let them all go up the bus, they can stand.
Cadet on the bus: Who say one? All must seat, they cannot stand.
A: I say...there are many pple waitin, jus let them go up
Cadet on the bus: Warrant say cannot leh, say no matter wat nobody can stand...sorrie, reallie cannot
A: Jus let them go up, can one
Cadet on the bus: Cannot cannot...
Civilian A: Jus let us get up and leave this place, why are u so inflexible? how can u protect the country like that? (committin the fallacy of missing the point, but i dun care...)
There were alot more exchanges whereby the civilian was reprimandin the cadet on the bus...
Civilian B: (walked over in a fashionable way, wave to the cadet on the bus) Jus close the door and go...jus go...
So the bus went without us...AGAIN!!
Finally, an indian came and aparently he had some kinda rank la...the next bus that came, he say let us all go up the bus. He will answer...i was like, finally someone whu can tink properly...so yeap, after half an hr of turmoil, we all got up the bus...So much fer operational readiness when they are so inflexible...y follow blindly when u can react accordin to circumstance? Why...sometimes i wonder wat goes on in their grey matter...i wonder...
Well, enuff of the spoilers..i went down to town to have s45 class gatherin...was damn hungry when i reached but ended up takin photos and chattin with everyone at some walkway...haha sure am VERI VERI happie fer Wan Xin...congrats ger, fer finding ur guy...hmm, never tell me earlier...my nick reallie sound so busy that u dun dare to even drop me a msg meh?? but well, i am reallie happie fer ya, i wan to see his pictures okies :) I like happie stories, sad stories, pls go away...PLEASE!!!
hmm, reallie glad to see the class again, but bro, u look rather tired and off todae..u ok? apart from the lack of sleep i hope nothin is botherin ya :) Am lookin forward to the all gers trip in may...after that i can open travel agency alr...organise hols fer other pple...earn monies...hee okies time to go orh orh alr...nite
