Well, the title is self-explanatory...told jh i confirm will blog this so i came online specially to blog it...hee
What happened was i was studyin with jh in SOB GSR2.25 and "happily" doin tax qn when this stupid woman and a stupid guy came to say "sorry, we booked the room". Jh and i were simply awestruck la...week 2 oni and got pple book room alr. If it were somebody else with a little bit more grey matter in the brain, i am sure they will jus settle in another empty GSR nearby and save the people from packing and walkin to another room jus steps away to unpack all over again. Aniwae, at that point in time, we quite bobian so we packed and left. And the one thing that pissed the hell out of me (it pissed jh too, obviously) is that within 20 steps of the room we got booted out, was another empty room.
I stress...stupid woman and stupid guy!!
The tot of it still pisses me off...dun ever let me see either the ger or the guy in a room i book in future. I will make sure that I personally will boot them out.
Mark my words.
Ok, done with bitchin, time for bed.

Well, it's the end of week one of school...in a blink blink of my eyes...but i wun say the week passed damn fast cos alot of stuff happened this week. First and foremost, i got irritated by my grumpy-and-never-in-a-good-mood AIS prof so much so that i was contemplating droppin his class to bid for another one until jiahui told me he dominates the AIS arena in SMU...darn!! Then it dawned on me that i am pretty fren-less in smu...if u are a fren from SMU, i am not sayin that i dun regard u as my fren or wat, i am jus sayin that i dun hang out with pple as often and the pple i see are oni those few pple becos our timetables are like that and the freaking school is so freaking big that it's so hard to see pple. Even when i see pple whom i haven talked to for a long time, it's hard to exchange more cos either they are rushing for class or i am rushing to class...this is not good. We are all reduced to hi-bye frens alr, and i am feeling sad. Very sad.
It's also this sem that i first stepped into verts, still veri scared of crowds but not too bad, the buyin queue always quite short when i am there and i managed to buy MPW text from verts at $28, not ex but not cheap oso...hiaz. And chris reallie my saviour, he told me abt the smu forum thingy and i got my finance text for $20, so i am pretty happie with my buy...ha!!
Almost got all my text for this sem except for AIS textbook...jiahui bought it from the temp booklink at noon todat but when i go back at 1345, it was sold out!! Was temporarily in shock cos less than 2 hrs ago got stock but when i purposely go back to get it, it mus be sold out...reallie jinxed. What can i say?
Gotta start muggin real hard for this sem, need a good start. I feel like i am running a mobile verts, doin virtual matchin bet freshies whu want text and seniors whu wanna sell...jus that i dun get commission...haha!! just help one guy buy his stats text...well, smu is all abt contacts...
gonna wring a lunch from my freshie...since food in smu is so ex...*evil grinz*
alritey, gtg...time for bed!!

I am so scared...at the rate i am using my good luck, i am so scared i will run out of it soon...
Went to sch yesterdae to configure my lappie and i met alot of my saviours...jus wanna thank pple like Macrus, Desheng, Keli and a yr 3 ger whom i dunno her name...starts with "C" i guess...Let me recap wat happened when i stepped into Accountancy block Networked Seminar room 1.1. It was a room packed with people and i dunno wat to do except to sign up with the counter. That's when i saw the long list of names ahead of me who are waitin for the cd to configure their com. And then....i saw Ying wen and marcus and the first thing Macrus said was "Come, I help u". *Ding Ding Ding* I am a lucky ger!! Cos i dun need to wait for dunno-how-long to get the cd to configure...ultimate cut queue. Stage 1 cleared.
And so i was happily downloading SP2 when the screen pop-up says "This installation requires you to be on AC power". Bam...best, i din bring the charger for my Acer lappie and one glance across the room dun look too good...only managed to find one guy with a red acer lappie but he oso never bring his adaptor...I was left with no choice but to try my luck in other rooms. That's when i went into the seminar room next door and guess whu i saw...I saw Keli...and he got the exact model as me but the bext thing was he brough his adaptor...hurray!!! So i started jumping and making alot of noise and ade (she uses Acer too!!) saw me...so i gathered i am a lucky ger as i have 2 sources of adaptor jus next door!!! haha. Stage 2 cleared.
So i continued to download SP2 and the configuration needed and the 3rd bombshell came...I am not logged into SMU domain cos i reformatted my com. Then the 3rd lucky star appeared--Desheng. He helped me log into SMU domain without any sweat and hence, Stage 3 cleared to0. even then i could only log into WLan-student, i had prob downloading the eTrust and Virtual Canvas cos my sch acct is not an administrator and the 4th saviour, the girl whom i dunno wat her name is came with a halo and a wand...I was saved a 4th time...and i lived happily ever after with my lappie...i hope. Computer stuff is reallie not my forte huh!!
After the adventures at PC logistics clinic, i moved on to meet the bookfair peeps for dinner and ktv. Had a great nite singing and learning new songs from Meiting...she is reallie a pro cos she can rem almost all the song beginnin while i am the Ms. Chorus. I recomment Marina Kbox next time cos everything there is new and the staff there told us the rooms there all have different designs. Cool! Hope we can have another one next week with more pple.
I will load the photos below when i rec it from Meiting :)

Reallie enjoyed tis weekend...been so long since i never stay at home on both sat and sunday...had a 02s45 class gatherin at settlers cafe...it turned out great cos we could play board games there after dinner and there were alot of laughter...reminds me of thge good old days when we played bridge in the reading rooms...and i must blog this, i was the 8-yr old heroine who defeated the zombie lord (lousy jingzhong) in this horror game called Battle in the House of Horror that we played...haha, no kick man!! It is a reallie cool game which has 50 endings in total so we can jus keep playing until we use up all the 50 endings...anyway it's cool cos u never noe the ending and it's quite excitin when u get items that sound useful...haha Halfway thru the game, it became a game of the sexes cos crushie got "killed" by the zombie lord and it was the 2 of them against me and bain...jz tried to kill me but i was jus too powerful for him la...killed him using my spear...haha
After leaving Settlers Cafe, we walked aimlessly at clark quay again...as usual...we are jus damn good at walkin aimlessly lors...haha aniwae, in the end wein drove me, jz, yr and ed to Swenson's at Crown Prince hotel where crushie left while i was in the toilet...so unfriendly, never wait for me to say bye...hiaz aniwae, we ate and drank and chatted until 3 plus b4 heading home...thanx wein for sendin us home...i reallie appreciate it :)
Jus had a 17 gatherin at jian hong's condo...damn shit la, missed one bus stop so he had to come and pick me...well, it's not my fault wat, whu ask the bus to skip one bus stop then i tot that one not part of the route so i din count that...so ended up one bus stop away from his condo...as usual la, keep chutin stunts for the freshies to suan me...sighz...it's reallie nice to see them again and play those forfeit games jus that this time instead of water, we get alcohol...drink until i sey and turned totally red...then poor ling zhen oso the same case...and she is my direct junior from vj oso...so qiao!! Saw fireworks from his rooftop as well...damn pretty!! Not bad, no need to squeeze with pple and still get to see the fireworks...haha

Saw the above title on the back of a green honda this morning on my way to Ubi. Then i find it quite apt so i used it as my msn nick as well...cos Ubi jus allowed a Goddess to be on the loose...by bestowin upon me the best thing that has happened this hols...a highly coveted driving license...cant wait to get my hands on the steering wheel and take my "reigning" drive at balestier...haha. Should be fun!!!
But seriously, i tot i was goin to fail cos i happened to see jingzhong while i was on my way up to the tester's office and he told me i was reallie pale when he saw me. I dun deny cos i was reallie damn scared and worried...on one hand i dun wanna fail but on the other i have this feeling that i am goin to buang it again. And the first thing the tester asked me was "What do you tink of your driving?", and i was like er...frankly, i tot it was horrendous...cos i strike kerb in crank course and that's like 10 points gone and then on my way into the drivin centre, i failed to give way to the woman with the right-of-way when she suddenly started movin...then lucky i zam break and let her go lor...so i reallie reallie tot i was goin to fail. If this were my first test, he sure fail me one, so i reallie consider myself lucky todae...i will drive veri veri safely when i manage to get my hands on a car...hahahaha
Saw a super ultra extremely unfriendly driver during my test. Think that ass did it purposely one lor cos any blind person can see the double "L" plate and that ass must purposely honk me and i mean honk me several times. The story was like this...i was stuck in a traffic jam (as usual) and i was behind a super long yellow box and so i stopped behind the yellow box and the ass was obviously behind me. He suddenly honked so i looked into front mirror to check it out then i see him looking at my direction. Initially i was puzzled as in i wasn't movin at all la, honk me for wat?? and then he honked a second time then i noe wat was wrong...He honked at me cos he wanted me to move up as i was blocking his way...tink he wanted to turn left into some building and i was blockin him. But pls la, i am in a test can...wait a while wun kill lor so i jus ignored him and continue to wait behind the yellow line...i tried looking at my tester to see how he reacted but his face super black (it turned black after i strike kerb and that was partly the reason y i tot i would fail) so i jus had to trust my own judgement. Tink the ass who honked me reallie deserve to be burned la...super unfriendly lors...
Anyways, i got wat i wanted and nothin else matters...jus wait patiently for my highly coveted license bah...haha so HAPPIE!! btw, thanks jz for the treat today...let's go ikea some day ya :)

Been reallie lazy to blog...somehow the feelin is not there. But seein jh and ray's taggy, i decided to add a post today. Had wanted to blog abt orientation but due to the lag in gettin the pictures, i tink it's quite fei to blog now la...well, next sun my og goin to have a gatherin at a freshie's place. At paya lebar, so i am not complainin..haha!!
SMUve was on sun and again, the guys never fail to be late. Comin first place is Jian Hong followed by Cadet Ngoh and in 3rd place...Louis. What is the world comin to??? My gers were all on time and the last to come came at 1040. I am absolutely speechless!! Then i missed the procession cos of these 'kids' whu cant come on time...sighz! Not that i missed alot but the tot of missin both the EIC performance on sat nite and the release of balloons on sun kinda created this imbalance in me. Well, i reallie like og group...at least they still made the effort to meet on sun after vivace to go for lunch. 17 rox!!
This friday will be my last day of work at uob...gotta miss the people there, especially shoppin with Long yu during lunch time and the frequent crazy jokes made by shy ching. They got me a Cow bookmark as a pre-leaving gift. Makes me feel kinda sad that i am leaving. I will definitely miss the people there...and i will never forget the scene when i saw Sharon in the same office. Sharon is this ger i got to know when i worked at novena card centre and if weilin and pk happen to read tis, yes, that Sharon.
One last update. My drivin test is this sat and today is the first time i go into the circuit after my last test. Totally put me into red alert mode, cos i gabra for parallel parking and i must say i reallie dislike the parking lots beside the slope (if u have been to ubi circuit, u will noe wat i mean), stupid potholes, make me tink that i strike kerb lor...and it's so irritating when the car go-stan into the potholes when u want it to get out of the freakin hole...No, no, i dun wanna kenna that on sat man! I want my license, I want it, I want it!!!
Wish me luck peeps!!
