hellos everyb0dy!I've got a new blog url now...
www.rhapsody-in-writing.blogspot.com
I initially created it becoz I thought that there was a problem in my old blog...which turned out to be juz a glitch in the blogger system.So ah wells...might as well.I'm pretty attached to my current(or rather,old) blog...But haha its time I break away from it coz its not good to be too attached to such things...^_^Plus,rhapsody-in-writing is much easier to type in that individualistically-different...Say that 10 time fast.Heeeheehee..

It's a world of leggings
A world of Crocs
It's a world of Bai Ling
And pants with frocks.
There's so much to abhor
Every day, there is more
It's a fug world after all.

OMG,look at those outfits.These outfits are not even fit for the upcoming halloween season.
wahaha,love reading this website..http://gofugyourself.typepad.com/. This critic scrutinizing the poor celebrities' dressing.Its seriously funny...perhaps alittle mean but oh geez,some of them really dress terribly.They wear clothes that do not flatter their skin tone and does nothing to their figure >.< eeps!its...horrifying!<>
I hate Crocs.No wait,I can't say that..becoz I have no reason to hate it.I juz don't understand WHY would people even want to wear them.Sure,they're comfortable..but they're also one of the most hideous shoes.Wad's alittle bit of comfort when you walk around looking like you raided Ronald Macdonald's shoe closet?There are plenty of other comfy shoes that don't look clownish.And the brightly coloured rubber!*shudders*Crocs are not cheap either...I must admit they look cute on little kids..But on adults,its juz...*twitchtwitch* ugly.

I'm tired of...
being sick and tired.
how nobody ever seems to stay.
how the past never seems to leave me.
being paranoid.
being left out.
feeling fat and ugly.
being not good enough.
how nobody seems to care.
how nobody even knows.

Today...is the last day of the holidays!sniffsniff,my beautiful 7 weeks of holidays is over!Sad,it was starting to grow on me.And I'm not looking forward to this coming semester's set of modules.
Inorganic Chem:BLEH!I'm gonna do very badly for this module...I remember in secondary 3,calculating of moles and wadevers were terrible.And unless I've suddenly sprouted extra brain cells devoted to chemistry problem solving(which I seriously doubt so),I am still going to fail miserably in this module(which I am not looking forward to).I think its even worse than organic chem..
Maths and Stats:Oh joy!And here I thought I didn't have to deal with maths ever again in poly.I've heard that this module includes A maths syllabus...which I DIDN'T take in secondary school either.Fabulous.Looking on the bright side,yay..I'll be learning something new!And erm oh...not gonna do well in it too.Bummer,was never any good in maths.
Microbio:Oooh,exciting!I love bio..but microbio would consist of alot of complicated words.And dawn's spelling isn't too good.In fact,she still strongly suspects that she's slightly dyslexic..juz that the doctors didn't detect it.But Mark(Ah Cheong) said that it was easy...so I'm taking his word for it.I love bio,and that's one of the modules that I AM looking forward to.
Physiology:I'm looking forward to it too...hopefully it wouldn't turn out to be a nightmare.Ah Cheong said that its alot of memory work..which is,not good>.<
Sports and Wellness:Oooh!!I hope I can get a dance sport or something.No tennis or badminton..can't play those for NUTS.Wouldn't mind swimming either.If they offer it.
CATS:Dunno wad it stands for...but its some very CME like module.Heehee,interesting.

I intended to spend my last day of the holidays well...so Diana accompanied me to Cineleisure and I bought my much looked for Mr X!He's a little figurine that can be hooked onto your handphone..and whenever you send or receive an sms,or call...his little dick will light up!Lols,its alittle obscene...but this little handphone charm is super cute!Those who know me will also know that I have a certain fascination with things that light up,or slowing changes colour...oh well.I found a sliver Mr X,which matches my phone..yay.^_^
I tried the Japanese Wasabi ice cream at the round floor of Cineleisure...it was interesting.And...erm,gross.I like my wasabi on my sushi and sashimi,but the weird mix of creaminess of ice cream and the sharpness of wasabi was juz...mismatched.When you first taste the icecream,its creamy and slightly sweet...but the aftertaste is...strongly wasabi.After awhile it was causing me more pain than pleasure...so after 3/4s of the icecream,I dished out the remaining wasabi icecream and disposed of it...and ate the waffle cone.Lols,diana said I got conned by the icecream guy.I remember being apprehensive on trying wasabi icecream..
Me:Which one is nicer,the azuki bean or wasabi?
The guy:the wasabi is interesting..its something different ba..
Me:Ok,izit nice?Is the wasabi taste strong?
The guy:Hmm,its 50% wasabi inside the icecream...but its not very strong lah...
Me:Have you tried it?Do you like it?As in,REALLY..(hey,I've worked before..there are pple who juz say it to make the sales.)
The guy:*confidently*Yeah,its nice!
Me:hmm..ok.I'll have one then.
Wahaha,it was an interesting but painful experience!Never will I eat it again.Although I tried not to show it,at times my face must have shown wad I thought becoz Diana was sniggering at me...-.-lols.So a word of caution.Unless you're absolutly LOVE wasabi,do NOT try wasabi ice cream.Seriously.Becoz I'm a person who loves strong tasting food myself(gimme onions,curry,garlic,ginger,spices and cheese!!)...but the wasabi ice cream was really,PAINFUL!!!!*cringes*
At Taka,there was a fashion show put up in celebration of Takashimaya's 13th anniversary..I think.So diana and I stopped to watch for awhile.But the clothes weren't that nice,and mostly of very plain design.Colours were very simple..so after awhile we got bored and went to Macs and talked.Shared a large ice lemon tea between us..and surprisingly we managed to finish it!

On tuesday Esther,Vivian,Adele and I went Kboxing!Lols,I've never been kboxing until I entered poly..and my fellow kantang Vivian(being in ACJC) was so excited coz it was her first time going kboxing!Haha,I don't mind kboxing...but normally i go there to stuff myself with the titbits and listen to pple croon in chinese.The english song collection in kbox is limited,and most of them don't have the music videos to the songs...so isn't so fun.But yeah,every since I entered poly,I've been exposed to more chinese songs than ever.Now,I know who's Lin Jun Jie and Wilber Pan Wei Po(or I guess that's his name) and some F.I.R girl(or isit a band?)...ooh,and S.H.E!Lols...Esther was so enthu about going kboxing,so Viv decided to call along pple to go kboxing with her. Heehee,Vivian looks alittle sunburned in that pic...
But don't get me wrong..the only chinese song I know how to sing is..."lao su ai da mi"(direct translation:mouse loves the big grain of rice).Its so cute!

the 5 things dawn loves about kbox.
1.the kbox titbits.DEFINATELY.heehee.
2.the kbox ice lemon tee(mymy,I'm very greedy am I?)
3.singing Skater Boy.
4.taking pictures!
5.did I mention,the titbits?haha.
Here's some of the pics we took during Viv's Pizza Hut dinner(it was her bday!)..

Bottom to top,left to right:Liwen,Jessi,Vivian,Esther,Deborah and I.
So good to see those pple again...Beatrice came later on.Deborah looks pretty without her glasses!! Beatrice at the very top...

William JinQuan,Beesim and I on the ferry ride to PULAU UBIN.
the ninjado chalet was so fun...^_^We went cycling,which was enjoyable!Haha,sadly..I wasn't too used to riding on a bicycle(also coz embarassingly,I had trouble reaching the pedals) so I skidded and fell!Got really bad scrapes on the elbow and palms.Had trouble sleeping at night(haha) coz couldn't find a comfortable posistion to rest without putting pressure on it.The one on my right palm was disgusting>.<..first night it was wet and pus filled.BLeh. We climbed up to the highest peak of Ubin..the view was so breathtaking!!Even the photos couldn't capture the wonderful view to such an extent.We were lucky coz at that time it was SUPER windy!I loved the wind!!It was so strong that it blew me back afew steps once...such nice wind,I didn't wanna come down!

The view down the cliff.So nice and peacful..heeheee,can imagine if someone FALLS?JinQuan said that the body wouldn't even hit the water...juz clash into the rocks below=(.

Candid shot!Most of us were caught unawared.

Yay,nice!Isn't the view behind really nice?

From left to right,top to bottom:William,Derrick,Mark Cheong,JinQuan,Joyce,Beesim and me!

Interesting flora and fauna in Pulau Ubin.

When we got back to the chalet..the birthday boys got bullied by us!That's jinQuan and Ah Cheong bundling Derrick up in a blanket.

Wahahaha,all of us squishing Derrick!!See the reddish brown hair and purple nails at the bottom..yeps,that's ME!

Derrick likes getting squished..

Next was William's turn!He's so kuai..Not like Derrick who struggled SO much.He juz docilely let us manhandle him=D.Took out Bee's eyeliner and started DRAWING!!
JinQuan is evil
Wahahha!(yes,that's my nivea lipgloss he's wearing...)
Derrick struggling away..we're terrible makeup artists...heehee..
And if you think their little surprises for the day was over...oh no,no,no,nooo...
JinQuan bought eggs and flour from Ubin village.Hahaha,William looks like a snowman!!
Derrick's hair is nicely styled with eggy goodness...lols,see the white splotch on his nose?So cute rite?Take a closer look!Teeheehee..

Ah wells,all in good fun...As we headed back to the chalet and washed up,they didn't know that we still had one more surprise...Earlier in the week,JinQuan told me to go get a cake for them!
Happy birthday Derrick and William!Got the cake with Mark Lim...

JinQuan cooking away and Joyce in the background

Derrick,Beesim and I.Dunno why derrick dozed off so early during the chalet...

Ah Cheong -_-"

I think it was Ah Cheong that said ths picture looked alittle wrong...lols.*mumbles something that sounds like,"who ask him never wear his shirt?"*

JinQuan!

Thanks for cooking all the food for us and planning this whole thing,JinQuan!All of us had a great time!Although I was terrified of the dark I enjoyed walking through Ubin at night..The air was nice and cool and I saw fireflies!^_^ Didn't see much animals though...was hoping to see some more wild boars(only spotted one racing across the road while we were cycling),ah well..maybe next time!
