Tuesday Morning (Tuesday, February 26, 2008 / 10:53 am)
Whoa, i woke up even before 10am this morning. How amazing. Less than 5hours of sleep and i finally spent the last hour redo-ing my links.
This morning, at 5:10am i think, i felt another earthquake! I could see the shadow of my block that was plastered on the opposite block in the wee hours and i swear that my block was oscillating at least 2 degrees. And since i stay on the 27th floor, the building must be shaking quite badly!
Oh, if anyone's kind and free enough to spot me online, please send me songs. English, please. My restocking of songs is going on really badly. There's only about a hundred plus or so in my music folder.
Well, in case u're wondering who's that on the layout.. It's Matthew Bellamy, the lead vocals, of the English band, Muse. While listening to their songs on their website last night/this morning, it really felt as if there were butterflies in my stomach. Their music is really...
intoxicating. (p/s: credit goes to piao for introducing them)
Now, i keep experiencing halluncinations. It feels like the building's shaking as i blog this entry. Tsk.

Starlight ( / 3:49 am)
Far away This ship has taken me far away Far away from the memories Of the people who care if I live or die Starlight I will be chasing a starlight Until the end of my life I don't know if it's worth it anymore---
It took great pains to finish up this layout. For starters, i actually forgot to save my initial coding so there goes my long list of links. Despite the surprisingly short one hour that i took to design the layout in psp/paintshoppro, i can't believe it took me three hours just to get the coding done. Am i degenerating or what?
No more layouts for me in a long time. This one really took me kind of long and amidst the coding, i actually felt the tremors again at around 2:10am. Sometimes, i really feel safe residing in this tornado-earthquake-wildfire-or in short-natural disaster free country. Nothing seems to be able to get to us except for terrorist attacks.
Alright, tomorrow's another long day. Hope i'll be able to wake up in the morning to hit the gym. Then, i must call the travel agent to clarify the bintan booking and fly off to tuition in the afternoon. Finally, i'll be meeting up with
KAKA at night to celebrate ali's bday at clarke quay! Gosh, this just lead me to the fact that i've gotta spend more money again!
Met up with the only army 'boy' available - Jerrold/Happyboy. He dressed like a terrorist! Lmao. Kinda reminded me of the time in J1 where he was donning the orange mickey tee and black vest and went for concert at VCH. But, oh well, that's mr happy fyi. Poor yizha was sick so he couldnt join the usual people (me,sw,yt,jer) for dinner. Hope he does well for his IPPT this week!
Dinner was really calories-loaded. Had a mushroom ham ovenbaked in NYDC and we headed off to Harry's at the esplanade for a drink. Yuting accidentally spilled half of her
cosmopolitan on me so there goes her $7.50 lol. Thereafter, we pigged out at Makansutra for stingray and chicken wings. Felt a little high BUT sane over there unlike the other three!!

Vulgar entry (Friday, February 22, 2008 / 8:11 pm)
FUCK LAH.
Today's the most pissifying day of 2008.
1. Before BTT, i accidentally deleted all my songs in my computer. Goodbye 1516 songs):
2. Fortunately, i passed BTT otherwise today's totally screwed.
3. We waited at CDC driving centre for 2 whooping hours, just to find out that we couldnt apply for ftt/pdl and so we just clarified a few simple questions.
4. I took a cab from eunos thinking i'll be on time. Unfortunately, the CAB DRIVER JUST STARTED DRIVING A FEW DAYS AGO ONLY. He doesnt even know where's PIE and if PIE leads to pasir ris and so i had to start calling people to find out how to go to my student's house. In the end, whatever instructions i told him, he said, "okok can i will look at the signs". SO i continued sitting without making noise for another 5mins or so (ps: having a bad jam cos it was during peak hr), then i asked again, "uncle, u know if this road leads to simei not?" then suddenly, he swerved left and according to my btt knowledge, he isnt supposed to turn left when he's at that lane! But he didnt really care apparently. Thereafter, i decided not to go for tuition since that uncle really pissed me ttm so i msg student and said i'll pop by another day. 50bucks gone and just threw away another 21bucks. Yes, that uncle is SUPER irritating he really doesnt know how to drive and act until he knows driving v well. Oh apparently he failed 4 times in 1969 lol. See, he really pissed me off really badly until im typing a whole chunk of words without any paragraphing. FUCK LA, that uncle, dont know how to drive in the east then dont come here la! BUAY TAHAN. 21bucks leh, just to come home. FUCK!
5. I choked on pad thai amidst my dinner cos i was complaining to my sis all about the horrid day lol.
6. Damn, i've never felt so vulgar in 2008.
7. To my dearest music files, i really miss u damn badly. I really cannot survive without your presence. Hurry return to momma.
Just binged and binged and now im feeling so tired. Hope i actually hit the gym at 9pm.
Taiwan - Kaohsiung, Taipei, Taichung, Tainan (Thursday, February 21, 2008 / 1:45 am)
Naruwan - Welcome to Taiwan!
The temples i visited plus travelling time exceeded my shopping time.
At some fisherman's wharf or something. Really nice but really really cold due to the strong wind.
I took about 6 photos and finally one succeeded cos my hair didnt fly up to expose my fulushou forehead.
Bin Tang Hu Lu - I love the strawberry one! Super sweet and nice, haha totally different from shuwei's.
Uber tall icecream which doesnt taste that great. Like those normal $1 ice cream u can have in sg but this is only abt 50cents which is more worth it.
Scenery nice right, see im not camwhoric anymore. I emphasize more on the background instead of myself.
Calories Galore~
Same size, same height whatever.
Dining at this really coolly designed restaurant.
The Toilet!
Focus : ME, not the brollys.
I look horrid with a beanie but u dont really care about looking good anymore when the wind's so strong and your internal organs begin to tremble.
Tour Bus.
Cool looking restaurant designed by a woman!
ALOHAAA!
Haha thats my dad. He looked so pleased when he got invited to join in and be some lead in this aboriginal performance.
Wu Zun. Haha im starting to have a better impression of him after watching gong zhu xiao mei (yes omg cant believe im watching that).
VERY VERY IMPORTANT FACT: Never visit taiwan especially their ye-shis during CNY. Look at the crowd. This was the crowd that managed to propel me forward without actually walking. Goodness!
Im amazed at the twitness of my sisters! hahahaha.
Finally, does this look FAMILIAR? If u did watch gong zhu xiao mei, this is the mansion they were filming at! OMG, cant believe i've been there and damn, i should have watched the drama before going to taiwan so i'd pay more attention to this mansion located in a horribly huge amusement park that is probably the size of bedok.
C for Chub; C for Camy ( / 1:38 am)
Camy has decided not to pangsei Chub and so they'll be enjoying a candle light dinner at the heartland tomorrow!(:
As for now, it's picture time again!
Ann's favourite geography teacher - Miss Wee Baba.
Korean student #1. Much cuter than this photo.
Korean student #2 - The violent abusive yet seemingly cute boy only in this picture. haha.
Caught the Kite Runner at the Cathay earlier on. It was a good movie, but i still prefer the book.
Caught up with the hot pigsy but only for a short while because that hot girl had to entertain customers buying laptops or something lol.
And so i was counting, i think i needa save about 400-500/mth for my trip to australia!! That's alot means i need to get more tuition assignmentsssss!!!
A for And, A for Alone. (Wednesday, February 20, 2008 / 10:32 am)
And finally, i finished reading my theory book in one go for the first time! To my surprise, i realised that i havent read about a lot of stuff in those chunky paragraphs which i thought wasnt important initially. Omg! Will be off for the final trial test later!
And sorry for neglecting you guys! Didnt mean to pangsei all the time; guess i just got too preoccupied with my own life.
And therefore, i think i really need to manage my time really really well cos my tuition timings are all over the place and i'm practically working everyday! Who said that being a tutor is an easy job lol.
And okay, off i go. Busy day ahead.
11-12: Workout!
1-2: Trial test
3-430: Tuition
5-7: Tuition
8-??:
Annual meet up with pigsy
Horoscopes (Sunday, February 17, 2008 / 11:43 pm)
I seriously do believe in my horoscope. Check this out.
Dear Wan,
Here is your horoscope
for Monday, February 18:
Travel is at least on your mind today, if not actually happening in your life. It's a good time to get ready for your next big trip, wherever it may lead you. If you haven't picked a place, do it today!
HAHA, so apt considering my previous entry.
There's no place in the world like Sydney ( / 8:10 pm)
Oh my god, I really feel like teleporting myself to Sydney now.
Holiday Plans in 20081. Taiwan - February (with family to avoid cny, like always)
2. Bintan - March (with baba and shuwei, booking tickets next tues!)
3. Hong Kong - April (if dawn allows us to go with her/if i can find people to go with me)
4. SYDNEY - June (with sister; tentative)
Alright, hope my holiday plans (2,3,4) work out. I'm busy earning money these days, taking up more and more tuition assignments and just a moment ago, i realised that i needa take THREE buses just to get to a student's house in hougang. Thereafter, i still have to travel to pasir ris so i'll probably spend at least 5bucks on sbs transit again. Oh boy, why isnt there concession for post A level graduates?
Sydney is just soooo mesmerizing.
Basically, i think im in love with bridges, buildings, architecture.
I've already planned out the
all american trip albeit the lack of funds to visit america in the near future.
Firstly, i'll stop at the east coast and visit the
Empire State Building in New York.
Then, i'll take a domestic flight to central America and stop by South Dakota to catch a glimpse of the breathtaking view -
Mt. Rushmore.
Next, i'll be flying to the west coast to find and snap millions of photo of my all time favourite bridge -
GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE(:
And finally, my last stop -
Seattle. There isnt really a significant landmark that draws me to seattle though, i guess its just the fact that grey's anatomy is filmed in seattle grace hospital which makes me really excited if i can go to see the real thing for myself haha. Other than that, it's probably because of the seattle centre which incoporates this really cool lighting showcase by a renowed designer which i did abit of research on for my h3. Plus, starbucks originated from Seattle! How cool would it be to visit the hometown of Starbucks(:
Doesnt this remind you of Grey's? haha.
Alright, enough scenic shots. Now, some taiwan photos. Shall upload the rest when my sis passes me the remaining photos.
Last but not least, artistic shot taken in the newly revamped bayshore lift.
Alright, off to gym. The fats are accumulating due to overconsumption of cny goodies.

Thank you for being so understanding.
