Biker Gang Boys And Girl

I love tis short story, very heart warming... It reminded me so much of e innocent bliss i was surrounded by, during a very short few yrs of my life...

Everything was simpler then, e principal, e teachers, e sch, e homework, e studies contents, e classmates, e schmates, e friends, e neighbours, e kids fr e same neighbourhood, e environment, everything... Even my reservoir (aka my fav place), was much much simpler, cleaner, and quieter then...

My mum and sisters were simpler then as well, until we became broke... Money sure can change someone ya?

If only i could turn back time... How nice would it haf been...

Curry Fish Head

Guess wat, i cooked CURRY FISH HEAD for tonight's family dinner... Wahaha, dun believe arh? Its true man... And i love it!!! After a few more practices to perfect moi self imagined receipe (again), and i can open shop again...

I made 2 blunders though, my brinjal almost dissolved, coz i cooked them too long, coz my mum told me they take e longest time to cook... I shouldnt believe her, since i jus cooked one piece at seoul garden yest... E other blunder is, my mum bought a wrong curry powder... But its ok, my mum said its very nice... Heh... Lucky i insisted i cook...

So lesson learnt - Ladies finger take e longest among e veges...

Oh, SHuzhen told Aeron tt day tt if she ever win lottery, she will open up a shop and i'll be e cook and she'll be e washer... But i insisted hiring someone to wash and tt she be e cashier... Coz shes better at her maths... Gd gd, then we'll open a authentic cosy Cafe wif lovely tasty home cooked food... Yea...

But its impossible one lah, she never buy 4D leh... Nvm, make her buy fr now on...

My big sis and bro in law brought my mum, pappy and me to e dog run today... I think Pappy misses Bondie, coz he somewat look depressed today... And guess wat, Bondie felt e same way, he was moody thru out e day... Haha, think finally they made frenz... I took many pics of e dogs, unfortunately, coz Pappy is too jumpy, i couldnt get any gd 2 dogs pics... Bondie loves to take photos, so he actually pose, and look at e camera, will post them up soon...

Seein e pics i feel sad... For Bondie, even if i anyhow take, e pic will turn out very nice... But for Pappy, no matter how much effort i make, it will still look like a black mess...

Pappy vomitted again today during e car trip, but luckily tis time, we had a pail wif a plastic bag... He was very sick after tt, like me... And he didnt even run or walk, he jus sat down wif me, while e horny Bondie chases after a choi bu... Haha... Think they r going to neuter him soon, hes jus too horny...

I hope i dun haf to neuter Pappy though... I find it cruel somehow, and i dun wish him to go thru e risk n pain of e surgery... We'll see how he goes... Currently, hes still decent...

Bondie is so spoilt, he doesnt wan to eat unless i feed him... Wat a pampered dog, hmph!!! And Pappy grew jealousy in him, and Bondie passed some bad habits to him as well... BAD BONDIE!!! Nvm, will train Pappy again, meanwhile, hes back to sleepin in e play pen until i graduate him once more...

E Seoul Garden meal yest was very filing, n e final price was exactly how i estimated... Haha, amazing... But i was somewat disappointed at e outlet, coz e food is so limited, guess its coz of lunch, so they haf lesser range... Damn, they dun even haf salad!!!! I bought a pair of lovely earrings wif green crystals at causeway, my fav... I love it so much... And i saw a green oriental coin pouch tt i simply couldnt resist at sun plaza... I bought a green clock wif transparent display somemore... Wat a greeny fruitful day!!!

Cursed was not a gd show, i kept laughin at one part though... 2nd time i laugh so long at a movie, 1st was at Howl's Moving Castle... Haha, and i kept giggling while creekin e old shaky chairs... But there was tis old man, who slept thru e whole day, and snoring loudly... Damn, he shd be cursed!!!

Cursed was a disappointing show, i didnt knoe it was a werewolf show, if i did, i wouldnt be even scared at e beginnin, wondering wat is tt monster... I am not afraid of horror films, i am only freakingly traumaticed wif ghost films... Damn... Can watch lah, not very very jialat... But for b grade werewolf shows, i still find Ginger is still e best... Heh... Unfortunately, i didnt managed to catch e part 2 of e show... Too bad...

Which Singapore Blogger Am I?

Congratulations Celestine, you are...




Scarlett Ting of joewei.blogspot.com


You are independent, smart and beautiful. Its too bad you don't see that yourself because life's little difficulties brought down a lot of your self confidence. As a result, you talk cryptic and you don't trust people easily. You care a lot for your friends and your loved ones, sometimes even more than you care for yourself, although they don't always seem to appreciate it. Don't let that affect you. As the saying goes, you don't miss the water till the well runs dry. So hang in there, you're a star in the making.

Star Struck

We went PS Cafe Cartel some time ago... And then something happened there...



Shuzhen has such a cheeky smile, but tts becoz of something... E pic was taken wif an intention... I wasnt trying to capture her... Btw, in tis pic, i find Shuzhen look abit like Angela Zhang Shao Han... Heh, big eyes... Her singing voice resembles even more though...



Yea, now she's smiling... Actually, we were trying to take a pic of e 2 guys sitting at e far end...


E purple arrow guy is e ex 93.3 fm dj, media corp artiste, Xu Zhen Rong...

Actually, im not sure whether isit him or not, coz thru out e whole time, i never got to see his face... But Shuzhen spotted him, and said look alike... And then, he was very secretive, and so we concluded it shd be him...

But but but...

He is not e main issue... Main issue is, tt GREEN ARROW GUY, facing me, is damn bloody gorgeous and handsome... Great built, sharp features, nice tanned... He is finger licking gd... Wahahaha... He kept lookin in my direction, so i actually had to keep my eyes to myself... But i actually flustered!!! Haha...

When they left, they walked beside us, i actually kept my head down, coz i was too paiseh to maintain eye contact... And so, there goes my GREEN ARROW guy, and ive never managed to confirm e purple arrow guy's identity... Heh...

Wat a delicious and satisfyin dinner...

Excited Excited...

Yea, i wan to break e tone fr e last post, i somehow dun like negative posts to hang at e top of my blog...

Wah, Xiaxue is on e talkshow program, You Hua Jiu Shuo (Come On Shoot) channel U wor... SO funny, heh, i got watch e show one... Friday 830pm... Funny to see e real life her talkin, coz i haf never seen any one of e numerous appearances she made on tv, especially on CNA...

Yeah..... I am so excited about tmr... We'll be eating Student Price Seoul Garden lunch, only $8.99, so cheap... So after plus plus, shd be less than $15 bah... Wa, comparing dinner adult rate, theres such a big diff... And then, smelling steamy and stinky, we'll catch e movie, Cursed... I hope it doesnt scare me too much though... But lucky watch in e day... However, i haf to prepare myself fr being scareded by Shuzhen, hehe...

I mentioned tt Pappy sleep outside my rm door right... Then, he very funny one leh... My com is jus next to e door, so i can see parts of him, slippin under e bottom door slit... Then sometimes, he will put one tail in, or one leg in, or his nose in, or one ear in, and also at times, he purposes pushes his toy or bone in, so as to make me open e door... Buay tahan arh!!! So cute...



Pappy sleeps like a human, buay tahan, he like to sleep lyin down like a cat... I seriously think his soul mus be a cat trapped in a dog's skin...

I Dun Understand Y...

Ive got a feelin im going to regret posting tis... Somehow, i feel im not supposed to write negatvie things... Coz those ppl who knoe nuts about wats happening, will start tellin me tt im too negative, tt im thinkin too much, tt im shd do tis, tt i shd do tt... Well, if its as easy as u've said, i wouldnt even bother getting troubled over it... Hack anyways, i haf e right to rant at times too... I am, but jus a mere human...

I haf not been bloggin consistently, coz one thing i am trying to cut down electricity, coz of some ppl and some matters... But also, i haf been too vexed to even online, blog, check mails, or even play my neopets... But i took e opportunity to update some stuffs coz apparently many things haf happened along e way and i dun wish to missed noting them down... I haf some photos too, but think i'll post them another time...

To be honest, i am feelin extremely miserable recently, due to some probs and my insomia's kickin back again... Physically and mentally drained even though i haven been doin much, but i feel like ive aged 10 yrs... But i'll get over it, i always do, its jus a matter of time... I knoe... Coz my life never run out of probs... And its not jus minor issues, i believe Shuzhen can vouch for tt...

I am still stuck and lost, and i really need to get a full time job... But i haven been lookin, coz ive been too sicken to even look at e papers... Too many things haf been happenin... Aarrrhhh, i need some time... Pls let me haf some peace ya? Im hopin they will understand, but apparently, ppl dun... And to all, time is not a luxury...

In tt case, i'll jus apply for anythin tt come across, but i missed yest's recruit... So maybe another wk of solice i hope? Anything even if its lowly but not demeaning? Anything even if its lowly paid as long as its survivable? Anything tt has ridiculous long hrs so tt i can work till i die of fatigue or a young age? Watever... Wat can i do anyway, since insensitive, selfish, self centered evil ppl r all pushin me off e clift? Jus anything to tide me thru 1st, and then we'll see how it goes...

Anyway, will be meeting Shuzhen for Seoul Garden lunch tmr noon... Really lookin forward to tt... I wan to bbq alot alot, and i wan to eat till i puke... Well... I'll try... Sigh... I really wanted to bbq, but wif Zhimin's bz tis coming wk, we haf to do it some other time which may not even come... So e lunch tmr is to compensate alittle to my disappointment...

I haf so much pent up energy, but i jus cant let them out... I make myself so cheery and chatty wif new ppl i knoe, socialise wif e ppl whom i knoe i will never click wif, keep myself communicating wif others so as to not become a cooped up autistic person...

Try to make ppl happy, try to make boring outings interesting by keepin things goin, to so called lead and make decisions, think of where to eat ard indecisive ppl or rather those who haf absolutely no clue, all things done, all e efforts made when in e 1st place, ppl arent even into being genuine frenz... I guess most ppl jus wishes to haf activity partners tts all, and worst, those who befren u wif an intention or motive...

But i guess tts how it goes for all ya? For e rest of our lives especially in workin environment, we haf to entertain and maintain pointless social gatherings, even if we r uncomfortable, even if its meaningless, even if we hate e person, even if we were strangers, even if e person has a knife behind his back, even if hes up to something... So tt we can survive, so tt we can fit in, so tt work can be smoother, so tt politics can be reduced in ur favor, so tt we get more opportunities, so tt ppl will reduce makin things difficult, so tt u haf more allies than enemies, so tt u can seek help when needed... I can go on n on...

Its all part of living, u may say, ya? So y complain, ya?

I wonder when will be e day when i can truly relax when im out wif ppl, when ppl can jus take e lead for me while i truly take a break, when i dun haf to crack my brain, when i dun feel pressurized to keep thinkin of programs, ideas, conversations, when ppl can jus carry conversations themselves, while sometimes i can keep quiet to enjoy e moment wifout ppl askin y i so unfrendly, when ppl actually contributes to conversations instead of me having to make all e moves... When ppl can lead me into uncomfortable environment instead of me myself surviving e whole issue alone, when ppl can spice up intelligent banters wif me, when i feel secure wif them, when ppl actually ask me how i am when i am down instead of me starting e whole issue myself, etc...

I wonder, i wonder...

I wonder y do i haf to do all those things all e time... I wish to be vulnerable at times, too...

I wonder y i duno ppl who's inspiring, who knoes all e moves, who knoes how to talk, who knoes how to handle situations perfectly...

Worst of all, i dun understand y some ppl jus dun listen... And therefore, assuming all e wrong things... Or made all my efforts n conversations to waste...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can shake off contacts for yrs, and then suddenly call u up to borrow some stuffs and expect u to lend her as a matter of factly, and never contact u again after tt...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can shake off contacts for yrs, and then suddenly call u everyday to forcefully mus meet up to catch up when their intentions r actually to pitch to u their MLM job...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can shake off contacts when they r attached, and then suddenly call u after they had broken up n complain y u never keep in contact, n behave like as though we r best frenz...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can shake off contacts immediately after their graduation day as though they never knoe u or worst, after they were in a different class as u when they were extremely close wif u before tt...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can say tt im disgusting and tt they hate me when ive never even tok or done anything to them be4...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can be best frenz wif me for yrs, and then suddenly ignored me totally when they r attached...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can treat their frenz invisible when tis is someone in e grp they like and then complain u r sensitive...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can tell me frenz r meant to be made use of...

I dun undertstand y some ppl can tell mothers not to cook their sibling's share of food everyday, so tt she will go out and eat, and watch her die when she's broke...

I dun understand y some ppl abuse their child, and hit her even till shes 20 yrs old and threatens her out of e house...

I dun understand y some ppl forfeited her sis's right of applying for bursary and yet, do nothin to help to pay her sch fees...

I dun understand y some ppl purposely make her sister do lowly jobs so tt ownself can be more successful...

I dun understand y some ppl punch, slap their gf, and nearly strangle her to death...

I dun understand y some ppl lie, betray, deceit, backstab and make others miserable...

I dun understand alot of things, unfortunately, does tt make me sound STUPID???


Sigh... People...

Pet Sitting

Shuzhen's date wif Meihua was cancelled due to Meihua's condition... And she has failed to pass her e gift she bought at Genting... A beaded rice keychain... I haf 2, i made one, and Shuzhen made one more for me, coz i simply love it... I bought her chocs wif intricate packagin... Haha...

Anyways, thot we wanted to meet up but i cant coz i haf to do pet sitting... And so i suggested she come over to my place for dinner...

I will be pet sitting Bondie for 4 days, i may get $100 for it, but its not confirm, u know adults dun really mean their stuffs at times... Their family is going KL for a wedding celebration and will be back mon night...

Bondie came to my place at 2+pm... I think he knows im pet sitting him, coz he didnt seem to feel unfamiliar and didnt cry like last time, which kind of surprises me since hes so disgusted wif Pappy...

But 2 dogs is tough... Bondie has been markin my house wif his pee all over... I clean his pee, he will come over to pee, than i clean, than he'll come over again... Buay tahan... Hes not used to it...

But Bondie's damn noisy... He kept barkin at e door, while as i mentioned Pappy doesnt make any sound... Suddenly, i realised how tame my Pappy is... But Bondie is so cute, he looks like a bear... And his mouth n tongue r so small tt i feel ticklish... So cute, i think Pappy's jealous... But Pappy appeared kind of stupid wif a contrast to Bondie... But nevertheless, they r still cute...

Tis time Bondie cannot sleep wif me, coz it'll be unfair for Pappy... Sigh... But Pappy's being locked in his play pen though... Coz Bondie doesnt really like him... But they r ok wif each other now, im glad...

Oh, recent tis wk, i no longer keep Pappy in e play pen... I test run one night, he actually went back his play pen to poo n pee and then come out to walk, he sleeps outside my door, and so i graduated him wif a Toilet Trained certificate endorsed by myself... He so big liao, cant bear to keep him in e play pen... Hes growing bigger n fatter...

Bondie's super underwt, so poor thing, can feel all his bones, no meat at all... While Pappy is so fleshy... Very nice to slap his butt... Hes already fleshy when hes at e pet shop, even though its under unfavorable conditions, so my mum says he mus be born fat... Mus be tt kind easily fat, coz i dun feed him much but hes growing fat... Maybe like me lor, drink more water also will be fat kind lor... Jialat lah...

After dinner, me n Shuzhen went central's bubble tea restaurant to chat... Very nice music they were playing... Then we walked to YCK MRT to see e timing of e last train and then walked to a nearby HDB to chat... She left about 1215 am... I forgotten about Shaman King again, damn it...

Bondie is really cute, duno how to convey his cuteness, his mouth is squarish like a bear, feel like biting him... Haha, oops... But his breathe abit e smelly, not like Pappy... I can see Bondie's face clearly fr far, but cant see my Pappy's, no choice, who ask him black black... Cannot take picture somemore... Shuzhen wanted to take his pic, but will turn out one mess of black n white like cow, wat for...

But Bondie very fierce, kept scolding Pappy, i play wif Pappy, Bondie scold me, spoilt brat... My mum beat him, he scold her, not scared of cane... Buay tahan, and he peed on my sis's blanket, but we had decided to keep it fr her... Heh... Of not, she'll scream...

Oh, my mum cut Pappy's nails till he bled at one nail... He lost alot of blood, i nearly went white, so scary, he went to lick at his blood but soon stop, mus be horrible taste...

Angry Wif Myself!!!

Today, I bought Inuyasha's 2nd and 3rd last box, its nearing, finally... I finally got e 2nd box at 50% off due to e Great Sg Sale... But I was supposed to get 2 free Inu A3 posters (i found out another day) but e chap didnt give me any...

I also bought a whole set of Howl's Moving Castle characters n e castle mini figurines which were very cheap... But when e hell r they releasing e VCD here??? I dun wan dark dark pirated one...

I bought a 7 characters inuyasha set and bought another set for Shuzhen... I wan to buy Inuyasha poker cards but due to e fact tt theres too many sets, i couldnt decide which one i like jus by lookin at e cover...

I saw Qi Ling Wang special added episodes in jap version!!! But im on budget... I still dunno whether e Qi Ling Wang dvd series set is jap or mandarin...

I saw Shaman King's 1st box out of stock... And i saw rental on Shaman King, one box is $6, worth it?

But worst of all, i will kill myself for tis...

My Lord of e Ring Extended Trilogy Dvd set had rosed fr $190 to $240... God damn it!!! I knew i will never get it on my bday, nobody will buy it for me... And its seems even much more longer for me to haf it...

Sigh...

Wif e sianess, i went to ktv at my usual place wif Zhimin, Aeron (e new guy), n Shuzhen... Its very cheap coz i haf VIP card... And its one for one drink promo tis holiday... And then we went to cine's Cafe Cartel, i ate Beef Lagsane, it was so disappointing, i could cook it so much better, i shd haf ordered my initial option Grilled Chicken...

Zhimin left early to play pool, followed by Aeron who's going clubbin... Shuzhen and me went home to catch LOST... Shuzhen wasnt in a gd mood though...

E LOST show was nt bad, rathering interesting even though it was kind of slow... And i actually forgotten about my Shaman King... Damn...

Jue Dui SUPERSTAR & Eye for a Guy 2

After e idol hype, following it was Channel U's Superstar singing competition, which i had asked numerous times of Shuzhen to join... She didnt, of coz... Coz it was too large scale... I even told her if she wins and become a singer, i wan free CDs...

Anyways, i watched e 1st epi of e 1st audions jus now... E show was disappointing, it wasnt super funny like Sg idol... And e no. of talents were somewat lackin, but e 4 blind participants somewat left an impression, but it wasnt as moving as Sg idol, i actually weeped for some sad stories when i saw Sg idol then...

I was so confident Shuzhen will get in e semi at least...

But e show is more critical, e judges r less forgiving and less professional, where they haf many many different judges on different days... E show is clear cut, they had already put it on e table... They r not lookin for talents, they r lookin for stars...

U can sing like Zhang Hui Mei or Coco Lee, but if u look like Ru Hua, u can pack ur stuffs and go home... So bottom line is, Pretty/Handsome, Slim and can sing... So i guess after all these, i will be expecting alot more of e winner... If not, they r simply eating their own words...

I also watched Eye For A Guy 2 afterward... Its e 2nd last epi, again, its btween a really nice el speakin chinese guy, or a gd lookin, rich half german dude... Dennis has character n poise, and she is independant, sensible n more mature as well... Not like e one fr e prev season, i couldnt even remember her name, Rachel? I duno, i only knew she was voted sexiest female in fhm mag 2004... She displayed a totally shallow side of her on e show, but most say, shes like tt anyway in real life... Oh well...

So anyhow, tt really nice guy called Howard, has been extremely sweet, romantic but modest... He's a chatty guy... Able to crack up smooth conversations, but when he wanted to confess his feelings, he actually genuinely flustered... So he ended up recording a video of confession which actually moved me... Only set back for him is, hes abit shorter than e gal... Yup, basically, tts it...

And tis wk, they spent a full day date at my fav, Genting!!! He made a bk called a fairy tale, and he had a story, drawings, poems, etc... All done by himself... I am so impressed, even though e drawings n colorings werent fantastic, but it certainly blew me away... And she was, indeed... He had such a magical date wif her... It was so fairy tale like and i was moved to tears...

Oh well, results out next wk anyways... We'll see...

Mum's Bday

Its my mum's bday today...

Unfortunately, Jul msged me to meet up wif her but i cant... She seemed so sian though... Bad timing lah, bad timing... I wanted to return back her bks as well...

Shuzhen (my mum's god daughter), was invited together wif my almost complete family... But at e last minute, my grand ma couldnt come out fr malaysia... And my big sis actually forgotten to ask another fren down, who was quite close to my mum...

And so e whole gathering ended up wif, Mum, Me, Shuzhen, Mum's bf, Big Sis, Bro in law, 2nd sis, 2nd sis bf, and of coz not forgettin Pappy and Bondie...

Me and Shuzhen started e dinner 1st coz i was hungry... Mum cooked alot, got lotus soup, chicken curry, green vege wif abalone, another vege wif abalone, sambal prawns, steamed super ex fish, Gong Bao Ji Ding and i cannot remember liao...

Oh, anyways, me and Shuzhen gave my mum a crystal bracelet bought at Fu Lu Shou complex at bugis... She like it... Its a bracelet of black crystal (to block off evil spirits), green stones (for gd health), pink stones (gd relationship wif ppl) and yellow stones (for gd fortune)... Nice... And its doesnt cost much as well...

Next, came my 2nd sis and her bf, then they started eating... Then i think y mum joined in... Then came my big sis and Bondie and e cake and desserts... Yum!!! Then later came my bro in law and lastly my mum's bf... Lucky we dun eat together, if not things would haf gotten quite awkward, especially for Shuzhen...

I told my big sis to buy durian cake coz its my mum's fav, and lucky she did... She actually praised me for makin a gd choice... Its Emicakes' D24 durian cake, my fav cake shop... My mum actually didnt wan to see so many candles so ended up puttin one, but i added one more, coz somehow i feel one is so pathetic, then i said nvm lah, every yr 20 yr old lor... Haha...

My mum soon went to bed after tt, while e rest of us watched Extreme Makeover together... We actually luff and made fun of e show so much tt made me giggled like hell...

"It was an interesting experience."
- Feedback i got fr Shuzhen after she went home...

Satellite in Heaven

Shuzhen and me were out last sunday wif a new guy she introduced to me, called Aeron, same age...

We went for ktv, and then dinner at taka's breeks and then we headed to esplanade, and returned home 4+am, coz Aeron drove... Woohoo... He didnt drive initially, coz... I duno... But soon regretted his actions after our dinner when we went to take e mrt... Guess he jus prefer driving to public transports...

And then meanwhile, Shuzhen was having gastrics, coz my stubborn SHuzhen had been skippin lunches... but her stubborness refused to get any medication... So Aeron took e mrt home, get medicine (coz his dad's a doc anyway), and drove his car to meet us, meanwhile me n Shuzhen took e mrt to city hall...

We sat at e gigantic Cuppa Chups balls sitting area... Lazy to take pics though i wanted to... Meanwhile, she recovered fr her gastric after takin fruits, which is a pear and an orange tt her mum made her carry out... We actually went to e Esplanade for straight 2-3 nights... Haha, but nvm lah, my fav sittin spot anyway...

After e trip home, as usual, i felt miserable... My idiotic motion sickness... Wat else...

Anyways, Shuzhen told us a funny thing... She has been giving tuition to young kids, so she usually encounteered funny qns fr them... Among them, i found tis especially funny...

She was explaining about satellites in e sky and wat they do... And then e kid actually asked her, "Wun e satellite bump into god?"... Wahahahah... Well, e kid's christian obviously, and has been told tt his God lives up in e sky... And then he asked, "So e satellite can see heaven lor?"....

Wahahahahahahah... Buay tahan... Kids... But a smart one, at least, he bothered to think and related his religion wif science...

A Beautiful Mind

I watched A Beautiful Mind for e 1st time tt night on tv i think about 2 weeks ago on a sunday night...

At first i was kind of worried i'll fall asleep coz i was very tired... I figured tt these films r better watched at e theatres than at home due to e heavy dialogue content... But i decided to watch it still, coz i didnt wan to miss it for e 2nd time, coz i missed it at e theatres...

To my surprise, e show is tt gd... Tt it caught my attention fr right e beginning... Russel Crowe is sooo gd... He really live his characters... I enjoy all his recent series of films...

In e fact, e westerners at Prinston Uni actually plays chinese Wei Qi, tts so amazing... I had always wanted to learn it after watching Qi Ling Wang... But i figured tt i'll be surrounded by old mans at e Wei Qi centre... But i jus got Shuzhen to join me, coz she said she wanted to learn as well, maybe one day we'll go take a look at e fees... Singapore seems to haf only one Wei Qi centre...

Which was y i asked her to lend me Qi Ling Wang again... Haha, to relive e moment... Wei Qi is a type of chinese chess, where theres a huge wooden box, which sometimes comes wif legs... E chess pieces come in black and white and look small small pebbles which r stored in 2 rounded containers... I saw a lousy version at popular, e board is jus a piece of paper, and e game cost about $12...

I saw a mini version of e whole actual thing at causeway, i think its about 30+... Im hopin to buy it though...

Back to e show...

E show touches me coz its a real life story of a Nobel Prize winner who suffers fr havings illusions... In his entire life, he created 3 imaginery characters and he couldnt separate them fr imaginery or reality... For a long time, he thought he was a secret agent for breaking confidential codes to locate e atomic bombs for wars in a high tech advanced organisation... When in actual fact, none of wat e initially story showed were true... It was all his own imagination... But he couldnt tell e diff...

But to his strong will and his deep love for his wife... He refused to go under observations and medications, where he'll be placed in a asylum like place so tt he will not endanger others... He will also haf to be forced to take medications and treatments which will zonk him till he couldnt work or think properly or even be a husband or man...

By himself, his determination overcomed his condition and managed to keep it under control... He continues a normal life while ignorin his 3 imaginery frenz, of which one was his best fren when he was studyin... E 3 frenz however, continues to follow him even till his hair has turned all white, hopin one day tt he will speak to them again...

He received his Nobel Prize at a old age... And e makeup is excellent tt i can already see how Russel Crowe look like in his 70s...

Its a great show... Watch it if u haven...

Smelly Peas

A trip to Genting actually made me realise Shuzhen and me haf a common liking for a particular strange food called Smelly Peas, literally translated fr mandarin... Actually in fact, i realised alot of common grds btween e 2 of us, only recently... Maybe coz i had always assumed we r vastly different, who happened to be best frenz... Haha...

Back to e peas... Tis peas is particularly smelly, it doesnt taste sweet, its jus plain bitter and smelly like bitter gourd but worst coz its smelly... Thus, not many Singaporeans take it... But tis vege is known for its nutritious value and its amazing medical effects for curing diabetic probs, urinary probs etc... And thus, its actually quite expensive...

My mum has diabetes... And thus when she heard about tis smelly peas last yr, she bought it and tried cookin it... E best way to eat it is actually by raw, but its so bitter n smelly tt its disgusting... Initially, i couldnt take it, coz its extremely smelly... But later on, after my mum improved her recipe after numerous trials, i tried it again, and tis time, my opinion totally changed...

Its so gd tt its simply addictive... But then, after eating it, ur urine will haf e smell too, but only for a day, i think... Coz e peas is driving out e toxics thru ur urine and therefore, a so called gd tonic for diabetic patients and ppl suffering fr urinary probs... Its jus a hearsay, so dun say i say one... Heard tt if u eat e peas by raw every morning, ur diabetes may actually be cured or at least kept under control, of coz together wif a prper diet lah...

My mum will cook it wif minced meat, sliced onions and lots of chilli... Her chilli kills me every time, but it never stop me fr eating e peas... Usually she will buy a packet of peas fr e wet market, but not every time coz its rare... Then, one day, she actually saw e whole fruit... And its alot cheaper coz e peas werent taken out fr e pod yet... Excitedly, she showed it to me...



Wa, like, her, tis is also e 1st time i see e real thing... I showed it to Shuzhen as well, when i met her tt day... I didnt knoe they r in pods like these... Amazing, but e pods dun smell though, which is a gd thing...


When i was at genting, Shuzhen went to buy white porridge and smelly peas, and i was so shocked to see tt she bought tt... Later, i realised fr her tt her mum cooks it as well and she loves it too... Both our mums seem to cook quite e same but different fr e rest... Like how they used to cook red bean soup for dessert after fried bee hoon, till today i still dun understand y e 2 comes together...

So ppl, tis is SMELLY PEAS aka CHOU DOU!!!

Shaman King

I lent Shuzhen e lovers at dolphin bay drama... Haha, like me, she kept crying too and told me buay tahan, which was exactly wat i told her when i 1st saw e show... Wahahah... Its so nice to share my interests wif others...

I recently started to watch Wed to Fri's Shaman King again, coz i actually find e anime rather funny... Even though e story's not as complicated as Hellsing, etc... E anime is still rather entertaining... E characters r all still small kids, like pokemon... Who possess special powers when they train to be a Shaman, though i duno wat e hell it means... Coz i didnt watch e earlier episodes... Yah yah, dun ask me to check my jap dictionary...

Theres a grp of boys who takes part in e Shaman King fight and e winner will be e Shaman King... I saw one episode when e main lead had his 1st match wif his closest fren... And e both of them were so troubled by e idea and felt they they r so unlucky to fight each other for their 1st fight... But then eventually they will still haf to fight each other in e competition...

I laughed n laughed over e episode, its so cute n funny, e way they talk n react... I stopped after tt, and only started after 20 over episodes were shown... I kind of like e show, its funny and heart warming and excitin at e same time... E show has a fair bit of everything and every aspect u know... And i am extremely touched by their friendship, unity, and chemistry... Cool...

I actually wanted to buy it... But now, Inu is still my priority... So i shall control myself... I saw big big posters at e vcd shops, so i figured it shd be a popular series as well... Heh... Shuzhen is downloadin le... Hope to get fr her too...

Updates

I like tis yr's American Idol's single, Inside my heaven (Or isit inside ur heaven, our heaven, aiyah, watever) , i like it better than last yr's I Believe... But, i cant download anything anymore, coz of my firewalls set up to protect my com fr e viruses tt i encountered about a mth plus ago... Viruses or no downloads? I think i choose e latter...

Anyways, i missed so many many days of bloggin, coz i hardly haf time to online tis few days... And so, i will once again change e post day to e exact, so as to document for my ownself to note... For dun get mixed up over tis posts n e previous... I wrote tis 1st, followed by e sat post...

Been out tis 3 days and i am extremely tired... But poor Shuzhen still needs to be out tis 2 days while i haf a break before meeting her again on tis thurs n fri... U r strong gal, my legs r suffering...

Ive been lazy to post pics as well, so i figured i shd do it again... There r some things i would love to show... In fact, i haven even sorted out my genting pics... Wahahah... So many things to do, So little time...

Great Singapore Sale

E sale is so qua zhang tt Wisma actually extended shopping hrs to 1 am... Tts crazy...

I feel like getting a pair of jeans after seeing Shuzhen getting a new one... Should i? But i seldom wear jeans or pants one leh... Coz u all shd knoe im a skirt wearer... But i dun haf any jeans at all leh... In fact i dun even haf shorts for going out... Home shorts haf... But outdoor shorts dun haf...

Nvm la, see how bah...

Btw, tis is a pic of e Inuyasha sweets tt i bought before i went Genting... I ate half of them liao...


E blue clip is Sesshomaru, red one is Inuyasha, so cute right? Never seen them like tt before... E characters fr e bottom is as follows... E blur wrapper is Sesshomaru, then Shippo (e baby fox always reminds me of Jul), Inuyasha , Shippo, Kikyo, Miroku and lastly Sango...


I met up wif Shuzhen to go town in e noon... Then she gave me tis...


I will keep tis forever man, untouched... E hp thingy will light up when e phone rings... Nice... E characters r Miroku and Sango... Not my fav characters but i still love it... If only i can find another one tt is Inuyasha and Kagome then it'll be completed...

So nice, i love it sooooo much.... I was so delighted at e gift... But its e last one le... No more liao... Cannot find le also... So sad... SHuzhen love it as well... I wanted to give her back but she said nvm...

So if anyone see it or wif other characters pls let me knoe yah? Thks a zillion...

We went Orchard, its extremely crowded and extremely hot, i nearly fainted... We walked fr taka to PS then back to taka again... She bought a pink cap at e stalls outside Meridien and a jeans... I bought 2 tops... Funny thing is, we didnt get any items tt were on sales... Damn it... All e things we like r non sales items and e boutiques i patronise r non sales too... Purposely one leh...

While she was trying her cap, some indians boys walked past and said, "Wah, like Hong Kong stars!!!" Haha, so funny...

We walked till feet so pain... Scary... Meanwhile we got 2 free bottles of ice cold coke outside mandarin... Coz they were giving it away for free...

Guess wat, after drinking tt, Shuzhen actually said in her whole life, she may never wan to drink coke again... haha, coz she seldom take soft drinks, so tt bottle was way too much for her... And e funny thing is tt, e insignificant amt of caffeine in e coke actually coz her not to sleep well tt night... Haha...

1st time in my life, somebody actually cannot sleep coz of coke she drank in e noon... Wahahahah...

AI 2005: Carrie Underwood

Ooo, i watched e 3pm direct off satelite bullshit on channel 5 yest... Wasnt crazy enuff to get up and watch e live show at 8am... Country beats rock... Wanted to blog about it yest, but i continued watching Qi Ling Wang anime, so no time to spare to online... In fact, i didnt online whole day yest...

My personal favs haf all been eliminated in earlier parts of e show... Sad... But, finally after chasing e show for nearly half a yr, it has come to en end...

E show is less elaborate as last yr, maybe they had cut down on their budget. But e talents, e finalists had been e best in AI history...

I would prefer Bo Bice to win, coz hes different and already has e star quality and maturity in him... But on e fair side, even though Bo did better than Carrie thru out e season, Carrie certainly did won over Bo's performance tis wk... She did great, Bo was somewat half hearted, i duno y...

So judging on tt night's performance, Carrie deserves to win, but judging on e whole season, Bo is still e winner... And famous producers r already anticipating to work wif him on his record... Of coz, who e hell managed to make e whole audience and judges stood on their feet after their performance but Bo...

Funny thing is, my preference over e 2 finalist never seem to win... AI2, i prefer Clay and i still do... AI3, i prefer Diana, but she failed in one of her songs, sad... AI4, i prefer Bo, but he lost it... Damn... Haha, so now i knoe which fella will win next yr... E one i dun prefer... However, having said tt, even though i prefered Bo to win, i knew America's going to vote for Carrie coz she really did very well on e last night...

My sis kept complaining about Carrie though, saying tt shes fat and has a large butt and tt she looks weird... Haha, well, she said Diana look like Miss Piglet and Fantasia look like Donald Duck last yr as well... Tts my sis... She likes Constantine tis yr... Even though she didnt watch e show... I like Jessica Sierra (Yah, dun haf to tell me shes fat or wat, she has e best voice in e season and i admire tt)...

Maybe tts y my sis voted for Sylvester while i voted for Taufik, she played cheat, she even voted twice to challenge me, but i cheap skate, i didnt wan to spend another 50 cents on Taufik... But e final moment nearly gave me a heart attack, i watched in my living rm wif her and Shuzhen, i told them to off e TV at tt moment coz i couldnt take e tension anymore... Then on it again after e winner had been annoucned... Haha, but they didnt of coz...

I onlined coz ive finally finished watching Qi Ling Wang after so many days, so sad... Now i feel so lost again... It happens all e time after i finish watching one series... And also, coz its not mine, i haf to return, i feel even sadder... I truly hope to buy e DVD set, only $90, cheaper than e VCDs... But i hope its fully Jap...

Tok more about it another time, i go eat dinner le...

Also, i still haf 2 Dan Brown books to read... Luckily Shuzhen wrapped her book wif clear plastics, so i dun haf to worry dirtying or messing up her books or my Pappy biting it... Heh...
