681. repaired

Rant of the day: MORE work!

Yes! My laptop is repaired. Everything seems fine... for now. Think the entire motherboard was replaced. It's fused. Maybe it's time for me to buy a laptop cooler for home usage. Else, I'm not sure what will burn out next.

Since Comex is coming in August, need to get ready the following to buy:

1) Laptop cooler
2) Thumb drive
3) Laptop keyboard protector?
4) Laptop screen protector?

Not sure if I should get the last two since they are not necessity... yet... Perhaps just to check out the prices and KIV the items. Get it if they are cheap.

Anyway, next Tuesday will be the deadline for my media pitch. Shit. It's not ready. Must work on it asap.

680. first hd

Rant of the day: Think I'm getting heaty again... Shit!

Happy... Happy... Happy... I'd finally got my first HD!!! But it was a marginal score. Got prolly dragged down by the paper. Couldn't remember the last chapter and that had a super high mark allocation.

Whatever the case, congrats to the whole team as this means ALL the member got HD! Nice...

679. saved

Rant of the day: My eyes are tired and itchy...

Thanks to Weiming, my personal stuff inside my laptop is saved! Phew~~ Thanks to those who tried to help me too.

Apparently, it's due to a fault in my graphics card. Advise from Weiming was to connect my office LCD to my laptop and view the stuff from there temporarily while I do my backing up. This is necessary just in case Dell support staff decided to re-format my laptop.

Their experts are coming to my place tomorrow to replace the damaged part.

Hopefully no re-formatting required.

The laptop must be up and ready asap, else, I'll be really screwed for my assignments. Not forgetting losing all my previous assignments...

678. foul mood

Rant of the day: Stupid web help that doesn't help...

I'm in foul mood now. All the electronics seem to have something against me.

After the issues with my mobile, I'd lost my thumbdrive last week. To add on with the headache, my office mouse gave me a whole lot of problem where it start moving by itself and NOT moving when I wanted it to.

Guess what, my laptop failed on me last night... It REFUSE TO BOOT UP! Worse thing is, I had yet to backup my stuff into my portable harddisk! What the fuck!

Started last night when I switched on my laptop. Barely less than 10min during my chat with dear online, the screen flicked. Then it turned green. Then it hanged. Then it auto-restarted. Some sort of auto recovery system ran with "successful" message but apparently, nothing good came out of it. It simply refuse to even boot up after that. Not even when I wanted to go to safe mode!

FUCK!

And seriously, it doesn't help to think this laptop had only been with me for less than a year! This model is not exactly the cheap cheap kinda of series! Ladies and gentlemen, guess the brand of the laptop... DELL...

I'm screwed...

Foul mood. Don't piss me!

677. the restricted artistic branch

Name of the day: Seriously Interested in Money...

The funny thing about working in a large organisation is that peeps will put the fault on you even if you don't know them and the problem lies in themselves.

Someone from Restricted Artistic Branch actually feedback to 最紧“江”奖 that 最多话要“奖”and I were sometimes quite noisy. Right... This is what we call -- 贼喊抓贼 (robber screams to catch robber)!!!

Seriously, they are NOT in the right position to pass such comments. In fact, they are the NOSIEST bunch of peeps in the level. From which branch did the mobile NOT set silent and let it ring endlessly like a fire alarm? From which branch did their staff talks over the phone like screaming for a discount? From which branch did their staff group frequently together just to gossip loudly?

Ridiculous!

All they know is their yada yada... and talk without "cents". And by nature they are noisy, they will try to also find fault with other branches.

Whatever the case is, I assume that those who "feedback" are a bunch of nutcase.

So now, I have to "whisper" in office liao. What about the helpline? Maybe I need to work in pantry insteaad.

676. you've been warned

Rant of the day: I'm so sleepy...

Don't click on the button at the bottom left hand bar that says "Don't click here".

You've been warned!!!

Muahahahahaha.................................

*evil laughter*

Anyway, office is exceptionally peaceful today because 最佳乱乱“奖” is not in office! So happy. No one to piss me off.

Can't wait for my Movenpick ice-cream that I'd purchased through dear. It's cheap but now, have to start finding space in the fridge. Shit... No space...

675. i'm blessed too

Rant of the day: I need a miracle...

It's good to be rich. A lil housewarming gathering at Hans' place left my jaws dropped. His new place is HUGE! When will I ever have such a place for my own? Think not in this lifetime I guess. No matter how hard I work, it will still never happen.

But I am happy with what I have now. Prolly the simplest thing in life but it's good enough. A loving mum who will cook dinner everytime I have lessons till late. A loving girl whom I love alot too. A gigantic younger brother that I can shaft those heavy sacks of rice to if he's around. A stable job that can still sustain my daily needs. An on-going education that prolly can get me else where after I graduate.

And of course, a healthy body that still functions daily (but it does malfunction once a while during flu season). A healthy diet that can still enjoy wonders of sour, sweet, bitter and spice. A functional arse hole that can still FART loudly (I just did!).

I should also say what Hans' mum said -- I'm blessed with all these.

It's great to see my best pals back in Singapore. We are all so busy and haven't got the time to really meet up until today. Three people from totally different background, coming together as friends. Hans with the totally ang moh pai accent and the extremely cheem English. Xuan with the full mixture of strong English and Chinese and is of course, definitely smart. And me, totally opposite of Hans but I'm more rojak.

Different life. Different practise. But one common thing -- friendship. Oh well... Am sure we'll find time to meet again.

And even though I'm blessed too, I don't mind that spacious bedroom. And lotsa mirrors in my bedroom. And a personal toilet. And a potential dance studio. And beautiful kitchen. And a soundproof cinema-like entertainment room. And a huge balcony.

Haha...

674. 无法归类

Rant of the day: I'm so sleepy...

等了两年,第一届《绝对Superstar》的Derrick何维健终于要发首张个人专辑了。第一届《绝对Superstar》的参赛者目前的成绩为一下:

Kelly潘嘉丽 - 两张专辑
Kelvin陈伟联 - 两张专辑
Sing石欣卉 - 一张专辑
洪俊扬 - 一张专辑

Derrick的首张专辑名称为《无法归类》。主打快歌《无法归类》听起来似乎有一点Hins张敬轩《吻得太逼真》的感觉。不过,Derrick唱得还满有味道的。这次还有跳舞哦!

样貌似乎没什么大变化。仍然长得清秀可爱。可是,这样可爱的脸孔会不会已没什么卖点?唱片市场已经蛮saturated了。随随便便的一位新人都长得蛮可爱的。不过还是期待Derrick的发片。始终是新加坡的艺人……

要加油!

673. i wish...

Today's headline: 最佳乱乱“奖”don't know how to use powerpoint.

Seminar today was a lil haywire but still manageable. Just a couple of questions I can't answer but luckily TY was around to save the day. Phew! It's good to have backend peeps during the seminars.

Crossing my fingers for the 500-600 participants seminar. Think that might really freak me out. Haha...

I miss my dear so much. Haven't seen her only for a couple of days but it felt like forever.

I know dear is under alot of stress as she has yet to get accustom to the full time worker and part time student sort of life. Tired. Stress. Lost. I had been there... Though I can't help much except listening to her frustration, I wish I could be there for her 24hrs. I wish I can hug her tight when she needed some comfort. I wish I can massage her shoulder when she's feeling tired.

I hope this can make my dear smile and just forget about her stress for just a single second.

Cute? Haha... I love rock 'n' roll! And NO, I don't have that ugly chest hair... Cheers!!! Dear, you got smile?

672. doing fine

Rant of the day: No dress down for me on Friday. Sob sob...

Thanks to the treacherous rain, my leather shoes are soaked. My business pants are wet. My socks are drenched. My bag is damp. And guess what, my handphone and dear's NDS is inside. But heng ah, they are perfectly fine and dry. Phew~~

The sudden downpour is seriously unwelcome. It's so sudden that most of us were not mentally prepared to step into the rain, even though we had umbrellas.

But the rain halted the IPT. We merely went for a super short run and prior to that misery run, we were sitting in shelter, hoping that the rain will not stop. I had company with me today. Saw my secondary school BEST FRIEND, Lihao! But we haven't contact each other for like a year plus except our birthdays (prolly reminded by Friendster). Haha...

Most of the time were spent on reminiscing the good old days and catching up on our current. Nice to know that he is doing his final year in NTU. Yes, a course that I will NEVER EVER wanna do again in my life -- Physics! But of course, he's good in this stuff. Never my cup of tea...

Knowing that he is doing well now makes me do a lil self reflection. Am I doing as well? What have I achieved?

I suppose I'm not too bad. Self sustaining even though I'm paying my own school fees out of my pocket now and still have enough to get by my daily needs. Conducted many seminars and somehow, the best speaker in office so far (self-declared). Able to find and commit myself to a gal that I really really love deeply. Met many extraordinary peeps (all my friends) along the way. Done not too badly in studies even though I'm full time worker and still running a seriously bad sleep debt.

On the not so good side, getting a lil fat though but still presentable. Eyebags getting bigger but still ok. Wallet getting smaller but still manageable. So, for those who really care about me...

YES, I'M STILL DOING FINE NOW!!!

Thank you... Thank you... Thank you... Thanks to those who had been there for me. Thanks to those who cared. Thanks to those who walked me through my darkest days. Thank to those who are still by my side.

Apology to all that I had accidentally hurt. Limited to those that I seriously hurt ACCIDENTALLY! You get what I mean laa.

And not forgetting to thank that idiotic rain too! Grrrr...

Seminar tomorrow. How shitty it can be... Hate to do seminars on Friday. No dress down day for me. So sad...

671. oops i did it again

Today's headline: 最佳乱乱“奖”did it again!

She seriously need to piss everybody off EVERYDAY! What is wrong with her?

Remembered somewhere in my earlier modules, we talk about "othered" being "othered". In the case of 最佳乱乱“奖”, we didn't "othered" her out on purpose. Rather, she "othered" herself out. In every conversation with her, she MUST add some extra words that is unnecessary.

Her highly discussed phrases or words includes,

  1. 你做了这么久,应该会啦…… (You had worked so long, should know how to...)
  2. 你不喜欢捐钱huh?(You don't like to donate money huh?)
  3. 你很忙吗?打扰你一下hor…… (Are you busy? Interrupt you for a while...)
  4. 跟你confirm多一次…… (Confirm one more time with you...)
  5. 我好像明白了……………………我又不明白了…… (I think I understand....... I don't understand again...)
  6. 你不用man helpline meh?(You don't need to man helpline meh?)

If you think the above sounds like any other phrases, think again... See below for the respective explanation (in order of the above list):

  1. Totally ridiculous assumption. If it's not your daily job scope, you wouldn't know right?
  2. Donation is out of goodwill. It doesn't requires any criticism.
  3. Obviously I am busy! Since you are already interrupting, ya, go ahead and continue.
  4. I seriously think that we have CONFIRM ENOUGH. We can confirm the same thing like 3 - 4 times and this bimbotic lady still "catch no ball".
  5. Contradicting. So you understand or not?
  6. It looks like a normal phrase. But it sounds totally unacceptable if you say it sarcastically.

Life just get tougher with these kinda people around. Imagine this where she finally got confirmed after 6 months and become my boss because she got a degree.

SHIT!

I can see my life is indeed tougher!!!

670. potentially and realistically

Question of the day: Why is G-String named "G" string?

Wonders of email circulation. Haha. Enjoy your laugh...

*************************************************************************************

A young boy went up to his father and asked him, "Dad, what is the difference between potentially and realistically?"

The father thought for a moment, then answered, "Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars. Then ask your sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars, and then, ask your brother if he'd sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars. Come back and tell me what you learn from that."

So the boy went to his mother and asked, "Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?"
The mother replied, "Of course I would! We could really use that money to fix up the house and send you kids to a great University!"

The boy then went to his sister and asked, "Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?" The girl replied, "Oh my God! I LOVE Brad Pitt! I would sleep with him in a heartbeat, are you nuts?"

The boy then went to his brother and asked, "Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?"

"Of course," the brother replied. "Do you know how much a million bucks would buy?"

The boy pondered the answers for a few days and then went back to his dad. His father asked him, "Did you find out the difference between potentially and realistically?"

The boy replied, "Yes. Potentially, you and I are sitting on three million dollars, but Realistically, we're living with two hookers and a homo."

*************************************************************************************

Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?

669. 红星大奖

Rant of the day: I think I'm getting fat again... Shit...

The 2.4km run was a killer just now. My legs are still aching like crazy and running felt tedious. I'm practically trying not to "wobble" like jelly while running.

Yeap, my first IPT. Quite tiring actually cause it will end pretty late. Again no familiar faces but it doesn't really matter as long as I get it over and done with. Hate obligations like this. Basically, being oblige means NO CHOICE... SUCK THUMB... MUST DO...

Then again, mean-deaf will have a total way of interpreting such requirements. "You can do your own training outside on your free time and just need to complete your IPPT..." When will I have FREE TIME? If fail IPPT, then still obligated to do RT right? And IPPT is a mandatory shit to do in the first place.

Hate such obligations...

Back to office, we have our very own 红星大奖! The winners for the various categories are as follows:

最佳乱乱“奖”: The ridiculously bimbotic lady in office and I don't wanna mention her name.
最多话要“奖”: Joanne walked away with this title without much competition.
最常被人“奖”: This is ME! The “人”here is Joanne. Haha...
最紧“江”奖: Cheng claimed this title without much difficulties.

I'm sure there will be more “奖”to give away. Haha... Open for discussion in office. =P

最佳乱乱“奖”seriously needs to piss someone off EVERYDAY! 最多话要“奖”got so mad after 最佳乱乱“奖”asked her stupid things early in the morning. Seriously, if a varsity graduate turns stupid like 最佳乱乱“奖”after graduating, I'll kill myself after I graduate.

There's always news in office everyday with 最佳乱乱“奖”around.

Today's headline: 最佳乱乱“奖”don't know how to search for information via Google!

Nice... Maybe NUS might wanna consider teaching their students how to use search engines to look for really really simple information. Haha.

668. explanations why women are single or lesbians

Rant of the day: My IPT starts today. So sad...

This is hilarious. Got it from my email. Somehow "explains" why more girls are either single or lesbians.

*************************************************************************************

Top reasons why ladies today are still SINGLE !!

1. The nice men are ugly.

2. The handsome men are not nice.

3. The handsome and nice men are gay.

4. The handsome, nice and heterosexual men are married.

5. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men, have no money.

6. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men with money think we are only after their money.

7. The handsome men without money are after our money.

8. The handsome men, who are not so nice and somewhat heterosexual, don't think we are beautiful enough.

9. The men who think we are beautiful, that are heterosexual, somewhat nice and have money, are cowards.

10. The men who are somewhat handsome, somewhat nice and have some money and thank God are heterosexual, are shy and NEVER MAKE THE FIRST MOVE!!!!

11. The men who never make the first move, automatically lose interest in us when we take the initiative.

*************************************************************************************

Hope you have a good laugh. Dear, I'm not found on the above right? Haha...

667. turn it in now

Rant of the day: IPT starts tomorrow... So sad...

I seriously couldn't believe my eyes when I saw my turn it in profile for the latest report submission, a nice and sexy 5% plagiarised! My personal best so far!

So, till date, all my submission seems perfectly fine on the server. Quality of academic work integrity is somewhat not too bad. I tried my very best to write everything in my own words. Like what I'd said, I tried... So it's not exactly perfect.

Now that I had lift off the burden of Phil's module, I'm left with the current module to think. Somehow, I had target the person to interview and she had gave me her consent. Time to start thinking the direction and the "news-worthiness" to pitch.

Sometimes, I just couldn't understand why some people must piss people off EVERYDAY. 最佳乱乱“奖”said the wrong things again and pisses off Cheng. Just a donation card also can say wrong things. When will she start to say the right thing at the right time? Donation comes purely out of goodwill. You can try to convince or persuade but don't overdo it. Don't be an ass...

666. night cycling

Rant of the day: Hate Sunday evenings... Pre-Monday Blues...

Haha... The evil numbered post -- post number "666".

My ass hurts! It's not what you are thinking ok!!! You sicko! Now I understand why most female who cycles alot lost their virginity to their bicycle.

Anyway, congrats to all cyclist who completed the IRRC night cycling this morning. Yes, my thighs and calves still aches. Heard that the total distance covered was about 60km but somehow, I felt that it's only a maximum of about 50km.

We started off last night from East Coast around 10pm and slowly made our way towards Changi Village. Passed by Changi Airport along the way. Enjoyed the chilling sea breeze. Screamed with those planes taking off along the runway. Passed by SAF Ferry Terminal. Those were the days...

Had the first supper at Changi Village. Haven't been there for so long.

Next resting point was the bus stop after Old Tampines Road. Passed White Sands and Ikea. The journey got tough from here cause we were hitting the road and no longer the cyclist track. On Old Tampines Road, my face got hit by something flying, prolly a flying moth or crockroach. Ouch! Luckily it didn't went into my mouth. Phew!

From then, was literally the toughest route, lotsa up-riding slope towards Lavendar. Passed through Bendemeer and stopped at Balestier for the second supper. But was too full to eat. My brain wasn't thinking cause it was already the usual time for me to sleep.

Saw alot of ba-po (transvestite) while cycling through Balestier. The new place for such transactions? Gross!

And finally, set off back East Coast, passing through National Stadium. Reached the end point at about 6am.

Seriously tiring but hell lotsa fun!

Weather is too warm these few days. So I got a hair cut!

Look at this. Messy... Out of shape... A total disaster... That explains my bad hair days.

And now, nice? Not cheap hor! Not those from your EC House hor! At least it's short and neat. My roof-top feels so much cooler now. Haha...

The hair stylist says my hair is not dry like what I'd always thought. It looks dry because my hair is naturally wavy and frisky, thus, it gives an impression that it's dry. The only way to make it "not dry" is to rebond. Expensive lehz. Somemore guy do rebonding... weird right?

I hate to think it's Monday now. Gotta work... My body still aches. Can I take a day leave just to recover? But who's gonna work in my absence? Damn...

665. in school now

Rant of the day: The weather does't looks good to me.

Believe it or not, I'm in school now. Not that I have no place to go, but rather to accompany dear to school because she's driving alone. So, not wasting time, I'm actually squeezing my brain juice out for the 2000 words report.

I'm close to 1500 words but I'm literally brain dead now. My mind is not thinking. This is driving me nuts!

Type... type... type... backspace... backspace... backspace... type... type... backspace... backspace... type... backspace... type... backspace...

I'm tired... But at least I'm more than the 50% mark and closing to 75% completion. That gives me some sense of accomplishment.

It's quite tough to do my report now actually. A huge distraction in front of me. A couple lovey-dovey actions and JIGGLES! Want to come school then do your homework. Want to action action touch touch and study each other then do it behind close doors at your bedroom la. Irritating lehz...

School compound lehz. Not everywhere is your bedroom ok...

I'm a lover for oldies. Some old songs are just simply unforgettable. Love this song by Aaron Kwok, 唯一色彩 (The Only Colour). So touching... Just like dear is my 唯一色彩. Haha... I sense some peeps rolling their eyes and says mushy. Bleah!

I've still got my night cycling with IRAS later, spanning from 9.30pm till tomorrow 6am. Gosh! Excited but worried. What if I cannot finish my report? Have to get it done by tonight. Grrrrr...

664. 快发疯了

Rant of the day: I'm feeling exactly what dear felt when I started my studies -- neglected.

“不要为你夜夜泪水洗脸……不要哭泣的脸让你看见……”

梁泳琪的《洗脸》对我现状来说似乎很贴切。

2000个字的专研报告,现在有另一个1800-2500个字的feature需要准备与起稿。我不用泪水来洗脸才怪!!!可能还需要用铁锤来“按摩”我的头!!!

我快发疯了……

663. 起伏不定

Quote of the day: I am in shape. Round is a shape.

我很累……对周遭的一切都感觉乏味。可能是我想得太多。可能是我想得不够。

我很累……对自己的期待都失去知觉。可能是我做得太多。可能是我做得不够。

安排和定好的计划却都不记得了。见面的时间越来越少,但一个晚上真正相拥的次数却少之又少。我的位置在哪儿里?“珍惜”是否是个遥不可及的欲望?可能是我眷恋着最初的感觉。别理睬我的胡思乱想与胡说八道。

我的心情就是偶尔会起伏不定。有时会不知觉的“mel”一下。可是我不是多愁善感hor。

明天又开学了。很累……专研报告都还没赶完又要开始下一个科目。真希望我有三头六臂或是绝世天才。

夜已深。该是时候干我的专研报告了……

662. pre-monday blues

Quote of the day: Groom my roof...

Finally sent my phone down for servicing. Only get to collect back on Tuesday.

It's been a short day. Time passes so fast and it's Monday in less than 45min.

*pre-Monday blues*

I'm seriously not looking forward for tomorrow to come. Can't imagine so many work to do. Websites to edit. Calls to answer. Emails to reply. Queries to attend. Meetings, meetings and more meetings. Work stress just keep piling and building up but I'm not actively looking for a new job. No time for such and moreover, this company pays me reasonably well. But if another company happens to offer a much higher pay with relatively not so much work like now, I might just leave.

I'm just pragmatic but this is how the society moves too.

Too engaged in my work and study that I had barely time left to meet up my pals. Just for a drink or simply chill. A couple of hours out during the weekend will be great but I'm not even sure if I have the time. Too many commitment beyond just work.

Perhaps a clone of me will be perfect. Haha... Yes, I need a CLONE!

Just my yada-yada... please ignore...

Anyway, I'm really glad that dear is seriously putting in effort for her studies. She's more anxious about her studies than me. Haha... But that's good attitude. I mean, we all pays for our own fees and it make logical sense to work hard and complete the course to our best effort. Not everyone is born smart. So people like dear and I have to work damn hard.

And yes, not everyone is born talented. Definitely not like this young girl here, Connie Talbot. 6 years old and she can sing till your tears drop. People like me have to keep practising and practising and yet still sings like shit. I'm not a music person so can someone confirm if she's what Simon Cowell says, pitch perfect?

661. phone woes

Rant of the day: Shit. I haven't start on my research assignment.

Around 3.45am to 4.00am.

The door slammed loudly.

I woke up, thinking what the heck happened.

Mum woke up and rushed to the door while I continued to try going back to my lalaland 'cuz I knew it's my brother back home.

Puking... puking and more puking noises. Not my brother though...

Bedroom lights on. Bedroom lights off. Bedroom lights on. Bedroom lights off.

More puking.

I can't get back to sleep. Time check, around 4.30am.

What a way to enjoy my night. And so, didn't get enough rest but couldn't feel my body to urge for more sleep. Can't meet dear early 'cuz she need to bring her dog to the beach with her dad. Am thinking now if I should just send my phone for repair without dear first 'cuz it just hanged again for the fifth time in merely 3 days! Moreover, this phone had been giving me alot of problems with my network. Full reception on display but I cannot get any calls or smses!

What the fuck!

This W910i is giving me so much problem that I seriously had the thought of just throwing it away. But I can't of cause. can't upgrade my phone 'cuz my contract is barely 6 months. Yes, this phone had been with me for only 6 months and it's already giving me so much problem!

Can't trust any brands now. Nokia gave me alot of problems. Samsung gave me problems. And now, Sony Ericsson is giving me problems. What brand should I buy next? Dear says Motorola also have problems with their battery life. It's only LG I haven't try. Shall get some feedbacks from Joanne when she starts her usage on Viewty.

Think I should go ahead with the phone servicing first before meeting dear. But perhaps after the NDS is fully charged.

Oh yes, have to remember to bring my spare phone. Don't think the service centre is smart enough to provide me with a spare phone right?

660. 10 promises to my dog

Rant of the day: My eyes are closing...

How should I put it? The interview today was terrible. Sort of not pinning too much hope on it. But my intention initially was just to try out. So, no hard feelings. Just find that sometimes interviewer(s) get carried away with their own ego.

And yes, I HATE to put on make-up! If not for this "branded" company, I'll never put on make up. Took me quite long to figure out how to spread evenly just the base powder! And then loose powder. And after all the yada yada, still need to remove them. Then, toner and moisturiser. Too much work.

Grrrrrrrr... Don't understand why some women adores those cosmetics and diligently wear them EVERYDAY! It's these chemicals that make them even uglier. Trust me. Get them to remove their make-up. They prolly look worse then vampires. Plus, these chemicals will damage the skin quality, and to cover them up, more powder...

Vicious cycle.

Recorded the second song for company DnD musical. Nice... Much better than the opening song but sadly, I'd got no solo part again for this song. How shitty...


(Image taken from: http://asianmediawiki.com/images/7/79/10promisestomydog.jpg, 12 July 2007)

Just caught "10 Promises to My Dog" and I seriously wanna complain the writer and director for making me cry! The movie is sweet, touching and yet meaningful. I started crying, thinking how badly I had been neglecting my mum.

Story revolves around a gal who finds loneliness surrounding her, especially after her mother passed away. Before her mother died, she secretly planned for a golden retriever pup to "sneak" into their house as a surprise present for the gal. And that's when the story leads to the mother setting 10 promises for the gal to keep for the pup.

So, did the gal fulfiled all the promises? How did the movie concluded that made almost everyone in the theatre cried?

The Japanese are damn good in making touching movies and horror movies. Sort of sadistic aren't they? Either make you cry like the World's ending or make you shit your pants.


Love the closing song. "Be With You" by BoA. Nice...

You should watch this movie too. Or at least, own the DVD. Seriously good!

659. lotsa thanks

Quote of the day: Time past so fast that you can barely recall what you done a minute ago.

The presentation was finally over. But not exactly an enjoyable one. In fact, it's my worse ever presentation conducted so far. Not that the speakers were unprepared and on the contrary, we were so ready to present. Somehow, the class just went out of time and we only managed to do a 5min presentation without any visual aids.

Right...

Felt that the whole class presentation thingy was very unorganised and unprepared. All the "unforeseen circumstances" were REALLY unforeseen. By 10.10pm, there's still 5 more groups yet to present their work, and yes, my team is one of the 5 groups. And, we were the LAST group in fact!

Dear was waiting for me but I'd decided that she leave first. No point waiting endlessly for the presentation to end. I rather she go home early to rest. And I was quite right that we ended super late, 10min to 11.00pm!

Because of the time, we have to cut our presentation short... damn short! Cut from a generous 12min to a mere 5min! Can you believe it?!?! All our hard work in preparing our slides and speeches gone wasted! So demoralised...

But, I'll still like to thank all those who had purposely stayed back to give us moral support even though it's like damn late and all have a day job. That's really touching. A big THANK YOU! This class rocks! Though studying is indeed tiring, especially I have to hold onto a crazy job, knowing you peeps is a bonus to keep me going.

And of course, a big THANK YOU to the team! Dinah, Felicia and Gabrielle! You gals rocks too. Impressive teamwork in fact! One of the best team I'd worked with so far. Of course, my brothers are still the best! Haha...

The following is gonna be mushy... So please, close the window if you can't take it...

And to my dear, THANK YOU for all the support you had gave. I know you felt neglected when I'm so tied up with both work and study, especially when all my projects crashed. But I want you to know, I felt miserable for not able to be with you all the time. I felt so sad when I can't see your smiles anymore. But I wanna let you know that I love you... Muacks!

658. sad blog

Rant of the day: I'm so busy that I can barely breathe!

Thanks Joey for for making me cry with this link. Read this.

What if I pass away one day suddenly without any warning? Will you peeps miss me? Or am I just a passing wind that you can barely recall?

Shit. Why am I feeling so melanchoy all of a sudden?

Just cherish everyone around you because you don't know what will happen next...

Anyway, caught that pink hair girl coming out from the only male toilet in office just before I knocked off AGAIN! This is the THIRD time I caught her! What's her problem? The only right given to her using the male toilet is when she has a dick. Or maybe she really has???

Got so pissed off that I phoned their in-charge to riase the issue. Hope that she don't do it again else, I'm gonna sia suay her on the spot.
