i wanna know wat happens next
Who will finally catch Marlena red-handed??
you know what happens when you watch days of our lives for a few consecutive days? you get addicted! BAH!! i really want to know what happens next. i was so desperate that i went online to look for any synopsis regarding marlena's serial killing but america's wayyy ahead of australia. bahhh...when i checked the synopsis, marlena has already died. bahhh
i hate to kill the suspense for myself but watching soaps makes me unsatisfied because watching it for an hour is like reading a chapter a day. there's no kick and it makes me uneasy for the whole damn day...argh!!!
i wonder whether they have days of our lives story books. if there is, i wanna read them!!! at least i can go on and on without waiting for the next day to satisfy myself. aikz!

watched cinderella story. very predictable.
--> reasons not to catch the flick
- it's predictable: boy ends up with gal after emotional turmoil
- hillary duff can't act to save her life
- cheesy scenes like when they first meet and... when they made up
- unbelievable plot: how can austin (the main dude) not find out who's cinderella, after all he can use her "slipper" or phone to trace the user of the phone...DUH!!!
- the step sisters are friggin irritating!!!
--> reasons to watch the damn movie
- er....the soundtrack was not too bad??
- it's a feel-good movie and requires NO thinking
yeap yeapp...time to fly...maybe do some work....

Sex and the City star's lesbian lover named28/09/2004 - 15:59:40 http://breakingnews.iol.ie/entertainment/story.asp?j=118998418&p=yy8999yz4
Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon’s new lover is a mystery no more.Nixon, who it emerged last week was in a lesbian relationship, has been dating education activist Christine Marinoni, it was reported today.
According to the New York Daily News, Nixon and Marinoni fell in love while campaigning for better funding for city schools.Nixon, who played the red-head, marriage-wary lawyer Miranda Hobbes in Sex and the City, met Marinoni, the New York City director of the Alliance for Quality Education, in January.The Emmy-winner met Marinoni after splitting with the father of her two children Danny Mozes, whom she had been with for 15 years.Speaking last week, Nixon refused to confirm the romance, saying: “My private life is private.“But at the same time, I have nothing to hide. So what I will say is that I am very happy,” she added.
Nixon won her first Emmy earlier this month, in recognition of her Sex and the City role.She began her relationship with photographer Mozes at high school but the couple never wed.Nixon once said: “Marriage isn’t something that appeals to me.”
The couple split in 2003 and have joint custody of their children, who live in New York with their mother.Nixon’s life is a far cry from her character’s, who wed, had a baby and moved out of New York City to the suburbs.She met Sex and the City co-star Sarah Jessica-Parker as a child and started a career on Broadway.But it was her role as a cynical partner at a law firm which catapulted her to international stardom.
The actress recently agreed to play Eleanor Roosevelt in a TV film Warm Springs, alongside Kenneth Branagh who will play former president Franklin Roosevelt.

yesterday...all my troubles seem so far away..
hahah yesterday i went out to albert park for a nice BBQ with byron, janelle, kee, oaks, gerard, bryan, jiew, may, joey, SM, CS, charms and ywonne (dun tink i left anyone out)...
the weather looked ominous but thank God it became more sunny and it made everyone's mood better. when we arrived, byron, charms, CS and myself played soccer to warm ourselves up. by the time the rest arrived, it was time to tuck in. yummm. we had chicken wings, sausages, and pork. yuuumm...i ate so much (as usual) since it was after the ball and after that we started playing games. we played captain's ball, soccer, the relay game where each couple (which was given a tasK) had to run to a point, and back and peel open a mandarin before tapping another couple to do the next task. it was sooo funny and enjoyable. =) funny sight to see jiew, bryan and the rest stuff big chunks of mandarin without even peeling the mandarin properly.
ahhaha...we also played some sushi game before uninvited guests (ppl we dunno) came to occupy the pit. we ended up clearing up the place before taking a group photo. SM, CS, yvonne, charms and myself proceeded to st kilda's for dessert. =) i had a strawberry tart, bought one for alv and went back home.
hehehe
so here are some of the photos i took from that nice gathering we had. may even suggested that we should actually come back together in 2006 for another gatherin of this. interesting. hope by that time i can earn enough money to fly over. =) i would love that to happen.
preparing to eat...
chicken chicken and more chicken..
SM, charms and myself...
should have taken a nicer photo of him..heheheh but he smiled at least..heheh
come kitty kitty!! heheh
charms, myself and the little flowers..heheh

MUMSU ball =)
hahha MUMSU ball....let me summarise...
i guess it was effort put into the ball but i felt that...
1. the emcees were making a fool out of themselves. emcees should have a good command of english and not look THAT nervous. they seemed like they didn't know what they were talking about. there was no coordination among performers, emcees, and the sound crew. and i tink the MCs also seemed like they prepared the script the night before.
2. some of the performances like the lion dance and breakdancing were interesting but a tad too long. i was getting restless after a while...hehehe. the fourth performance (which involved two members singing and playin the guitar) wasn't tat good because we couldn't hear much of the gal singing. oh well.
3. didn't like the layout of the ballroom. dance floor was in the middle of the U layout of the ballroom. there were approx 20 tables surrounding the dance floor. it was pretty awkward because we were sitting at the end of the U-layout and i'm sure most of the people at our table and the table beside us couldn't see much of the performances. for some reason, many people had to stand up to watch the performances. we couldn't see much of the stage as well
4. there were a couple of looong awkward pauses i felt but maybe that was jus me.
5. the food was...er...according to some, bland.
6. the service sucks. we had to keep asking them to give us refills. tat's why i only drank a glass of wine.basket.
oh well....maybe i'm being too particular...hehehe but here are some photos that we took durin and after the ball...
ahh this is taken with rodney, the one in charge of perfromances i tink?
we were pretty bored so..hehehe...
this was taken after the ball with daryl (my make up hero) and josh. heheh i look pregnant OMG!
josh and danny...
the whole army who went for the mumsu ball
this was taken outside paul's place....

morning sickness...
hahaha feel like vomiting...but no no...me is not pregnant, aiks god forbid...tsk tsk...jus went for a ball yesterday. the mumsu ball the be exact, i shall leave out the details because i'm jus typin a short entry. i'm waiting for SM rite now, we're going for byron's farewell lunch? yeah..
had to attend two birthday parties yesterday. the first party was at paul's. second was...er...kee/WW/melissa's birthday bash.
hmm i shall not elaborate because i'll do that later. wait............tokin to byron now.....hahah....anyyyway as i was saying, yeah i'm feeling a little queasy because i had very little sleep. i always feel like crap if i dun have enough sleep. slept at about 6? after talkin to ken and woke up at 9+. ulgh...
=)
let me try to recall what else i did for the past few days. friday went out with the HUMs, renald and ryan. that very nite i dreamt of renald. erm...i shall not say wat the dream was, but it was pretty wierd. eeks *shivers*
then yesterday afternoon we went to watch catwoman. =)
okayzz..lazy to type in a proper entry for now so i'll leave it as that. time to head on out of here...SM is late..yawn...

dum dee dum...
well well...yeap...went out for breakfast with ivan and had quite a good chat with him. then well i'm kinda waiting for time to pass before i can go play tennis. frankly i can't play for nuts, but i'll see... i played once or twice in jc but i was a horrid player..hehehe i still tink i'm better at ball games...like big ball games...HAHAHAH argh! stupid me....sounds like i'm implying something. *ziiipppp* speak no evil.
speaking of which, this is MY personal opinion but i still tink well everyone has a right to say what they want. yes one has to be considerate and whatever but hey i'm just voicing out what others are saying, but who are not willing to say it out. like what i said, me is the bad guy. =) guess i haven't been the more direct person previously but ...well things change, people can change too.
and of course i can't say look at yourself before speaking about others because more often than not, they dun. i noe i dun sometimes and i'm sorry for that. and for those peeps whom i've offended and even actually dropped, (hope there are none) i'm sorry. =p
and just for the record, *** people talk. tat's a fact of life, so well for anyone whose ideals are that people shouldn't talk, bitch, screw minds, well wake up from ur lala land =)
enough said, i'll stop with that and not talk about it, for the time being ya =)
time to surf the net and maybe bitch or talk to myself...maybe i wun hurt anyone yeah?dumsss...

my entry for the day...
hmm let's see...i woke up feeling quite a bit of angst so i wrote that particular entry. someone read it and came to my house to clear up some 'misunderstandings'. oh well jus what alvina and myself have noticed so well yeah. i'll leave it as that for now.
and i guess i may have said a lot that may have hurt, or slandered anyone. if i have please accept my apologies. all i have to say is, if u have felt anything like that, dun read my blog. i tend to be quite blatent and hurtful... mind you it's my blog. i dun assume to be self-righteous and perfect but this is my blog after all and i'm entitled to bitch, complain, talk nonsense and even say things that are even unnecessary. AND as someone would aptly put it "i have the right to say whatever i want" so yeah i'm adopting that attitude, especially in my own terrain thank you very much =)
yeappers... i shall leave it as that.
guess wat i'm going for the MUMSU ball after all. i'm not mentally prepared. argh!!! oh well who asked me to say "if renald goes then i'll go" haahhaha and he actually is going, and is helping to promote for MUMSU.heheh my dear friend, did they pay you?? *raises eyebrow*
ok time to go... i need to wait for ken's call and sleep. i've got a long day tomorrow.

well well...to my dear friend
I see the light now (MY GOSH i"M ON A ROLL HERE).
well we used to hang out almost everyday. i used to call and scream at you for nothing, maybe even abuse you. (haha) we would do quite a bit together and i would tell you so much about myself (and mind you i don't do that often)
what happened now? ever since you got another friend, you just totally chucked me aside, completely dropped me. you don't call me you don't msg me.
thanks i really feel like a priced friend.
i heard stuff about you but i CHOSE to ignore them because you were my friend, and i must say a good friend, in fact one of my closest friends i've had in aus. i gave you the benefit of the doubt but well you really proved me wrong. you proved to be a person who would chuck friends aside once you have found someone else "new" who would make you look so much better and more "happening". sorry lor (correct me if i'm wrong...*note the sarcasm) sorry for not being as skinny, as smart, as talkative, as pretty, as whatever as your new found friend.
once you told me you had a confrontation with a few of your "old" friends and they mentioned why they don't hang out with you anymore. at that point of time i didn't see why, but now i really see the light. and i can truly understand how charms also feels (in her own predicament)
hahah i can't believe you did mention "hey next time when i go back, i don't tink you'll even bother to keep in contact with me" HA! look who's talking, see the irony, THE IRONY.
if you think you are in hot demand, good for you. i'm not that hard up for friendships. now
seriously i dun tink i'll call you out, because i've tried a few times. if i have any problems, i wun look for u, because u would prob feel obligated to come and visit me. if it's out of obligation, fuck you. i don't need your sympathy. i've tried i feel and if that didn't work then *shrug* maybe you're jus another person who came in and out of my life, an ordinary friend.
and if you tink that i dun ustand you enough, maybe that's the reason. but reflect. seriously. i'm sure you're old enough to do that. reflect and see why so many people have been unhappy with you. jus reflect on ur r/s with ur housemates.
well fr that particular friend he's been hanging out with, i'm happy for you (note the sarcasm)you may be lucky to get him now because he'll be going back soon anyway, so you wouldn't feel like u've been chucked.
smell the shit dude (u're 25), grow up.
~wish upon a star, ***renzi (it's 11.34am)
ps: kenneth told me not to bother and i'm starting to already.
pps: well i mean i still treat you like a friend, but maybe jus another friend. period.

i can't wait to go back..seriously
well i'll try to keep this short.
i can't wait for the 16th when i come back. wheee...even though it's only a short 3 mths, it still means alot to me. =)
i'm sorry to charms, alvina, SM and whoever i made a promise to you. i'm afraid i'd have to major DUA you because i really badly want to go back. guess there are things that have happened, which i jus want to chuck and leave it aside. =) and mind you i'm not escaping. heheh well least i dun tink i am. hahaha
yeappers....aussie jus jus far too temporal. i've to make new friends and find another social circle again. i'll miss you gals!!!!!!!! sniffles.
sigh... when i go back, hope to see you gals seeing me off, i noe i'll cry... =(

look!!! i'm the bad guy now!!! =)
well well... read sharon's blog about friends. first reaction i got was "HAHHAHHAHHAHAHA".
hmm "I guess i'm too tom-boyish to really talk or bitch about things." what are you trying to say? Haha..you're not tom-boyish. in fact among all the girls, you dress up more than us, you wear make-up a lot more than us, you tend to ur image in high regard, so what are you trying to drive at? ANDDDD hey when, and that is WHEN, we do meet up we don't bitch and tear down other people, we talk about life.
"circumstances that do not allow that to happen. I truly wanted to be in your group. To chit chat, have tea, go clubbing, go shopping.. etc... but like i said... circumstances dont allow that." well all i have to say for this is...for the record, we don't meet up that often. i only see charms less than once a week. if i do see her in the muiss lounge, all i do is say "hi" and "bye" andddd sometimes when either of us are too tired, we don't even bother to exchange formalities. and as for alvina, even though we're housemates, we don't talk to each other everyday.
moreover, we don't go clubbing. the other day when we wanted to go out to club, it was cancelled due to our respective heavy workload. and when you asked us to club, didn't it also occur to you that i may have something, or the rest may have something planned for that day. remember you asked us only 3 days prior to the event. it may be a little too rushed. dun ya tink? =)
and one more tthing...shopping? huh??? apa ini??? hahah i dun go shopping. i haven't shopped properly since i came over this semester. neither has alvina. the only crazy person who goes and wastes her money is charms. HAHHAHHA she goes out with SZE MIN to shop, not us.
so maybe you may like to reflect and not blame "circumstances" because circumstances are not necessarily the reason/excuse for not catching up with so-called friends. do not blame other ppl as well. maybe you may tink that we haven't tried hard enough but the people that you hang out with don't call us out also, so are we supposed to always make the first move? come on lor alvina, charms and myself dun even hang out regularly!
END NOTES: last thing is...well there was a period in time when charms and alvina were hanging out so much with keith and sam but did i say anything? no.. so..?
SO in summary, please check and not jump to conclusions so quickly. sorry for being so harsh (if i was) and since u wanted feedback, here's my 2 bucks worth =)

the things we do in aus...tsk
hahahah today alvina passed me one of her tampons and we dropped it into a cup of water. MANNN!! you should see the sight! the tampon expanded right in front of our eyes. ANNDD you should see the rate of the expansion. HAHAH sounds like some kinda science project but i kid you not! if u want to have such experiments (this is for the guys) and need a tampon, and am shy to get it off the shelf, ask me for one. hahahhahahahahha oh well, just suggesting *shrug*
anyywayy i hear danny walking downstairs, but anyyyway ermmzzz.... the weather forecast sayssss...melbourne's going to be quite comfortable tomorrow, (in terms of temp that is) and whooo! i shall wear my berms again. dun care whether i'm unglam, like i give a fuck..HAHAHA

feeling better
i'm so glad she replied. it put me in such a better mood.
anyway nothing much else to say for today. but well forgot all about the execs meeting, oops, was actually tryin on make-up with alvina. HAHAH we were being girly today. we decided to pamper ourselves and jus be gals for once. we even invited jon over to tok and chill with us. he had to leave soonafter for soccer.
went for my meeting. talked and kinda like subtly reprimanded some ppl among the execs and hope no one took offence, but I DID warn them that it was going to the harsh.
oh well... you can't please everyone, EVEN if u're a crowd pleaser because ultimately you can't satisfy everyone. in the end, you'll make yourself even more tired and unhappy. jus be urself and if someone isn't happy with you about something and he/she is being unreasonable, fuck it. if the friendship means so much to that particular person, he/she will understand in due time. sometimes all you need is time and all you need to do is nothing.
=)

Heheh tomorrow I shall try to be like charms. CHARMS YOU’RE MY AUSTRALIAN IDOL for now..hehehe speaking of which. There’s aussie idol today. I think ricki-lee will do well today. Damn! Too bad I can’t check the results because it’s live. Darn! I like to spoil the fun for myself. Today’s the sixties by the way and I just can’t wait. I tink I’m quite a sixties person. I watched inside idol a few days back and some of the contestants are going to sing some familiar songs, some of which have quite good tunes to it =) *excited*
Hmm read a few blogs today and some of the blog entries sounded soo…er…how should I put it, Angry?? Hmm relak ppl… hahha but I guess sometimes you would have to go through roller coasters of emotions. That’s life. I mean I had a hell of a ride this semester, actually this year but I’m glad somehow. I mean you can’t possibly be experiencing the same thing everyday, every year because that will not be anything, you’ll be living a boring life, and you’ll not have anything to tell your grandkids! (or kids!) *gasp* cannot cannot….live life to the fullest everyone. Dun tink you’ll have much chance when you graduate and start working. That’s why I think I’ll cut my hair and streak it purple. If I really do that….i’ll post the before n after photos =)
As I was talking about relationships. Well when is the right time to let go and when isit appropriate to ‘move on’. I guess most of the time, ppl expect one or two parties (both the parties tat is) to jus have time out after a break up but what I told a couple, when one is single, he/she is already entitled to do what he/she wants to do. So… well I dun see anything wrong with seeing another person a few weeks after a breakup, that’s why there’s such a thing called a break-up. It’s a clean BYE BYE to a person you may not wanna be with. Hmnm but….well ppl talk. That’s all I have to say =)
And I also agree with danny about living together with friends. I guess it does tke a toll on friendships and relationships but that’s what we have to psych ourselves even before we move in. that’s what I didn’t do =p but well moving in with friends allows you to see idiosyncrasies and bad peeves but it’s a matter of give and take. =) I’ve tried to give and I noe I’ve taken as well. Maybe just ren for a while more lor… hmm dunno whether I made sense there…but sigh..guess we’re the bad guys in this whole matter again eh?
Hmmm weird stuff… I put a counter in my personal blog and it keeps jumping…scary shit. But well as I said, in that blog, it’s personal and if a person can’t take it then fuck off =) hehhe same goes for this blog I guess. You may see some of my inner thoughts but well if u’re not up for reading it, don’t read it and start scolding me because I am free to say what I wanna say, and I’m free to express what and how I wanna say. =)
yeappers tat’s it for now…it’s time for it’s never too late…
Because we know it’s right
And for our own self respect.
Your heart will tell you when the time is right.
When it does, listen.
Then fight hard.
You will respect yourself.
So will others.

alot of angst... tsk relak lah ppl
heheh...well got this off karen's blog..
'ten things i hate about males:
1) they dont bloody (no pun) have to endure the cruel monthly cycle of emotional upheavals, spots, bloatedness and..mess. NOT TO MENTION THE CRAMPS.sometimes i really doubt why God made us this way..yes, it all equalize somehow since guys are supposedly the gender to work under the hot sun and bring home the bacon. BUT, that is nothing, lemme repeat, NOTHING compared to the suffering we have to endure month in month out. moreover, the trend of dual-income families implies that the females are working just as hard. so, guys should not have such exemption.
2) they are not the ones who worry when the period is not here when due. they can just happily scoot off leaving the poor girls worrying about everything. it's not their bodies at stake what..fuckers.
3) they love with their dicks..that's if u can call it love in the first place. seldom they invest their heart and soul in relationships..as long as their lower halves remain happy, they will stay 'in love'..*rolls eyes*
4) they can get pissed drunk and no one will say a shit about them. BUT if we girls get drunk in the public, we are deemed as 'loose', 'easy' or..'always drunk'..what the hell?!
5) when they are getting on in age and still unmarried, they are termed as bachelors, while us are very unflatteringly termed as 'spinsters' ..sighok having a slight mental block now, shall think of the last 5 after a good night's rest. of course as a disclaimer, not ALL guys are like this, just the majority lah.'
AND ANOTHER REPLY FROM HER FRIEND...long one...jus bear with her...some parts, i mean only some parts make sense...as what i would like to stress, in r/s and even friendships, it takes two to clap. remember my friends, one hand can't clap. er...maybe got wind sound...if that makes sense...HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHHAH....well.... yeah... so here goes..
"Filee Falee said...
For all the insensitive Males ...
When did it become okay for men to just walk over women, when it's us who fucking give birth to these dicks? HELLO, HELLO, HELLO. Wake up and smell the fucking rain. Us women have given all that we have to make you men happy. You guys wanna fuck, we fuck. You guys wanna watch footie and ignore us, we let you have your way. You guys wanna eat, we cook. You guys want kids, we split ourselves into halves and bear you brats. And where the hell is the appreciation?
Why is it when things go wrong, you guys start pointing fingers and saying we ask for too much and you need some space? Mind you, that's the oldest excuse in the book and it doesn't work anymore. What the fuck did us women do wrong, except to love you when you need us most then let you cast us aside when you're done with us (like you're done with your cheeseburger)? When you've finally grown out of love (do you even know what the word means?) you just flick us aside like we play no part in the relationship. It's all about you, you, you. Grow the fuck up.
Best of all, you guys do it so well (the dumping, rejecting, whatever), you make us feel like you're doing us a favour and we deserve it. Oh please! Do men really think they can get away with anything? What sort of sick person would wanna hurt another person just for fuck's sake? I've seen all sorts of men from all walks of life, but a man who can't face up to his deeds is the worst of the lot. Fucking wuss, wimp, loser. You name it, you are it.
Don't try to lure us into your game if there isn't even any game to begin with. At least when a girl sleep around (aka Samantha from Sex and the City), she's open about it. But you men just creep around bedding us women and feeding us all the same lies, not caring about consequences. Don't waste our fucking time. We're not some sort of score you can keep (i.e. how many women can you fuck). We're human and we have feelings too aight? If you have whatever issues, go deal with it first. Don't try to bed us then the very next day blurt out silly excuses that are lamer than your lousy pick-up lines. Think about it, for y'all to do this to us, who's the weaker sex? Only the weak will pick on others because they're too insecure to deal with their issues. Only the weak will hurt others and gain satisfaction from it. The truly sick and the weak.
People come and go, but feelings don't just fade and die. Stop taking advantage of how we're always giving you guys the benefit of the doubt and treating us like crap. Maybe it's time to rethink your actions and its consequences. I wish bad karma on all men who hurt women for the fun of it. We will survive and emerge as victors, because we don't mind-fuck people. We are not cheap sluts that fuck everything in sight. We have principles and we stick by them. All we ever did is love (something you're probably incapable of, except to love yourself) and that's why we deserve better."

hahaha...it's a gal thing
yeap...was jus talkin to derrick sim and he reminded me that once when we were in the train, i was complaining to him about running 2.4 because of my boops. and i actually used my hands to grab the two things. HAHAH he was shocked.. but it's true...i'm going to complain.
girls have boops and that is one heavy burden i tell you, especially when you RUN!!! (*#$#&*^ bahhh... er... i noe this sounds crude but i wonder whether er...when guys run, do their...ahem get in the way??
---
2nd thing i wanna complain about issss....periodsssss... TMD. it's such a hassle i tell you to keep going to the loo to change pads/tampons whatever. guys spend less because they don't have to buy anything of that sort?? tsk... i heard in one third world country, a packet of sanitary napkins cost about 20++ bucks. NO MEANING AH!!!! i mean ppl are struggling to earn maybe what 5-10 bucks a day and once a month, ladies have to fork out money to buy pads. tsk
oh galsss...just for your info... if u eat more heaty food, your period may be delayed. other factors that may cause a delay in your period is stress. i tell you. this month, i think i was quite stressed bcoz my period was late for almost 1++ week...tsk...and of course another factor that may cause a delay in your period- pregnancy. yes babes...protection is always necessary my ladies.
ANNNDDDDD.....IF you eat more liang or cooling food, you would get your period earlier. i've tried it. once i ate watermelon every day and occasionally i would eat those black jelly stuff...i got my period 2 weeks in advance. believe it or not =) heheh anyway food items under the liang category are watermelon, black jelly, sugarcane juice, barley water...
and for guys...eat watever u want...doesn't make a diff
---
let's see...bras...bras are always an investment. i always believe in that. when you wear something nice inside you feel nice outside. MAN i feel like some bimbo talking, but it's true. any gals out there willing to vouch for me? =) i always feel that hte underwear you wear reflects what you're feeling...hehehe =)
BRAS ARE EXPENSIVE BY THE WAY!!!!!!.... damn it... we waste moneyn on bras, pads, what next?? our dentures??
anyway advice for gals, especially ppl staying by themselves (meaning students studying overseas)...don't put your bras into your washing machine. yes you may be lazy BUTTTT it screws up the shape of your bra! trust me on that. heheh i wash my bras separately..bwahhahaha...

i have no idea why i'm saying all this but i am...argh! help meeeee...heheheh
well i'm in a terribly good mood. feeling bloated though...(yes and gals feel bloated more than guys..bahhh) heheh cooked with alvina today and watched ghost by myself. the main character is soo sweet. i can't take movies. it's too good to be true. i wish...

yes you made my fucking day.
well well i was supposed to go for virtual cultures lecture and tut but i decided to stay at home because i needed to do my assignment, which is due tomolo. i had to get out of my house to meet janelle and jiarong to settle some stuff in the bank. so when i was walking to sch, jiarong called and i knew i was slightly late so i said "oh coming coming".
not even half way to school it started to pour just my luck. guess wat?> when i reached the commonwealth bank, i was huffing and puffing, slightly drenched and guess wat?? guess wat???? jiarong said "oh we don't need you anymore". WHAT THE FUCK. you think you own the fucking world? just because you are president now of SAM that means you're big shit??? fuck man.
the worst thing. when i said or almost screamed at jiarong saying "i had to come out of the bloody house to come and meet you guys lor. i have an assignment due tomolo lor" he started laughing, no not him alone. sam too!!! fuck lor. you tink this is a joke. i hate to do things half way, and my essay's no fucking exception. you made me waste my time, you made me get drenched, and you have the balls to laugh at me.
you gave the excuse that i was supposed to be in class. you could have msged me or give me a missed call. that's common courtesy. i would really have appreciated that. screaming at u guys wouldn't help. you'd prob laugh at me. fuck man.
thanks for making my day.
thanks for making me come all the way to uni.
i'm sure quite glad that i didn't join you guys in the SAM exec comm man.

Vaporize Me!!! Is inhalable alcohol a good idea? By Amanda SchafferPosted Wednesday, Sept. 8, 2004, at 4:40 AM PT
Is AWOL a potentially dangerous form of alcohol delivery or merely an intriguing novelty item? And given the political outcry, are we likely to see it in bars or lounges anytime soon?
First, it's important to understand the way inhalation affects the body. Normally, when you drink a glass of wine, say, or a shot of vodka, alcohol is absorbed over time, through the lining of your stomach and small intestine (roughly 10 percent to 15 percent in the stomach, 85 percent to 90 percent in the small intestine). The presence of food, especially starchy food, can slow this process further. When a shot of vodka or whiskey is poured into an AWOL machine and inhaled, however, alcohol enters the lungs and diffuses directly into the bloodstream, causing a much more rapid and potentially more intense buzz.

i disagree!
hahah had to do online postings and well sometimes i disagree for fun and argue a little. guess wat one of my tutorial mates said about me:
"Mate, you're kidding yourself if you think that we only did 800 words total. I reckon some people would have been doing 600-800 words per posting. David and Christine are going to have fun marking them aren't they! I've already done my 2 compulsory postings by the way, so i'm just having fun with this one. That's been one of the problems with this medium, no one's having any fun with it. Except maybe Renee..... And i haven't started my essay either"

9 Things You Should Never Say in an Interview
Avoid the following interview pitfalls as part of a strategy that sells your strengths and assets.By Jennifer Rae Atkins, WetFeet
1. "What does your company do?"Ask questions that show you're well informed and eager to work at the company, not those to which you should already know the answers, or that can be easily gleaned from the company's website or annual report.
2. "My salary requirements are very flexible."Compensation is often the touchiest subject in an interview. Certainly you want to know what a company will pay, and interviewers want to know what you're willing to take. It's a negotiation, not a game. When push comes to shove, you should be willing at least to give a range, even if you have to be broad and say, for example, "I'm looking for something between $30,000 and $60,000."But don't pretend to be flexible when you aren't. If you're worried that your salary requirements are too high for the job, you may need to do some serious thinking about how low you're willing to go.
Don't sell yourself short, but ask yourself how much you honestly think you're worth. Do research about what similar jobs pay and what salaries are like in the region. If a company comes back with too low an offer, you can always try and negotiate up.
3. "It would be hella cool to get jiggy with this job."Maybe that is how all of your friends talk (and it's become a habit with you), but it's not the way you should speak during a job interview. Using slang is a serious turnoff for interviewers. You may be articulate, intelligent, and confident, but like, you sure won't sound that way.
4. "Bill Gates himself offered me a $100,000 bonus."Don't lie! You'll be found out, and you'll regret it. Someday when you least expect it, someone somewhere will discover that you didn't really increase sales by 999 percent in six months. Interviewers know you'll probably exaggerate a little to sell yourself; but don't cross the line between exaggeration and out-and-out lying.
5. "In five years, I see myself on a boat in the Caribbean."When interviewers ask you about long-term goals, they want an answer that relates to the company. Telling them that you really want to be living on a farm (unless you're applying for an agricultural job) isn't going to convince them that you're an ambitious professional in your chosen field.Even if you don't plan to stick around long, say something that reflects a commitment to the position and the company. This may seem to contradict the previous exhortation about lying, but try to think of it as a rhetorical question. You might still be at the same company in five years, right?
6. "Sorry, I don't know how to do that."Rather than admitting that you don't have a specific skill, stress that you're a fast learner and are excited about the possibility of acquiring new skills. Most companies would rather hire an enthusiastic, smart person who needs to be trained than someone who already has the required skills but isn't as eager to learn.
7. "You see, I just went through a painful divorce. . . ."Even if an interviewer starts getting personal, don't follow suit. You may think you're being open and honest, but you're really just coming across as unprofessional, unfocused, and disrespectful. Keep it businesslike and polite.
8. "What can your company do for me?"Interviewers hate arrogance and selfishness. They want to know why they should hire you. Stress the contributions you can make. Tell them about how your efforts helped previous employers. Don't start asking about raises, bonuses, and promotions right away.Remember, you're the one being interviewed, and while you should use the opportunity to get your questions answered, you shouldn't make it seem as if you'll be doing them a favor if they hire you.
9. "I left my last job because my boss was a real jerk."Bad-mouthing your previous employer is possibly the dumbest thing you can do during an interview. Even if your last company was a chaotic hellhole, your boss was a monster, your coworkers were Martians, and you got paid in tin cans, say that you left to look for more responsibility, you wanted greater opportunity for advancement, or you were just ready for a change.
---yeap this is for ppl who are graduating this year...not much of A HElp but..heheh sigh...dun go everyonee!!! not all at once!!! *sniffles*

9/11's Lingering Health EffectsRespiratory Difficulties, Mental Distress Continue
By Miranda Hitti
Reviewed By Brunilda Nazario, MD on Thursday, September 09, 2004WebMD Medical News
Sept. 9, 2004 -- Almost three years ago, nearly 3,000 people lost their lives in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the U.S. Along with those tragic losses came wide-ranging health problems for many survivors, say researchers.
At the time of the attacks, the main problems were "various injuries, respiratory conditions, and mental health effects," states a U.S. government report.
Shortly after the attacks, "the primary injuries were inhalation and musculoskeletal injuries," says the report, which comes from the Government Accountability Office (GAO), the investigative arm of Congress.
Workers cleaning up debris at the World Trade Center site reported few physical injuries that made them miss work. But respiratory problems were an issue, with reports of wheezing, shortness of breath, sinusitis, and asthma.
New Syndrome
In addition, a new syndrome, called "WTC cough," was seen. The condition consists of persistent cough with severe respiratory symptoms.
"Almost all the firefighters who responded to the attack experienced respiratory effects, and hundreds had to end their firefighting careers due to WTC-related respiratory illness," says the GAO report.
The problems likely stem from the dust, debris, smoke, and various chemicals released into New York's skies when the World Trade Centers collapsed. The site smoldered long after the initial attack, lacing the air with substances that could trouble breathing.
Mental Health Problems
"The most commonly reported mental health effects include symptoms associated with depression, stress, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder," says the GAO.
Posttraumatic stress disorder can arise after someone lives through or witnesses a traumatic event. Symptoms can include intrusive memories, distressing dreams, difficulty coping with daily life, and increased use of substances such as alcohol and tobacco.
Those mental health problems didn't just affect people who were near the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, or the Pennsylvania crash site.
"Unlike the physical health effects, the mental health effects were not limited to people in the WTC area but were also experienced nationwide," says the GAO.
Effects on Pregnant Women and Babies
Expectant mothers living or working near the World Trade Centers around the time of the attacks were also affected.
With colleagues, researcher Sally Ann Lederman, PhD, of Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health, studied 300 nonsmoking women in the New York metropolitan area who were pregnant around the time of the attacks.
About 44% of the women lived or worked within two miles of the World Trade Center site in the month after the attacks. Infants born to these mothers at the time of the attacks were smaller and weighed significantly less than infants born to other women.
Infants born to these mothers who were in their first three months of pregnancy during the attacks were born significantly earlier than infants whose mothers were at a later stage of pregnancy during the attacks.
The authors say the studies suggest that there may be health and developmental implications for children exposed to the World Trade Center attacks.
The study appears in the online edition of the journal Environmental Health Perspectives.

irritating people..JUST F***king SHUTUPPPP!!!
(*disclaimer: as an effort to swear less, i shall censor my vulgarities..HAHAHAHAH LIKE IT MAKES A DIFF *shrug*)
first incident
well today i went for lecture. finally found out that malcolm had, according to gary (the substitute), "one of his organs" removed so he wouldn't be coming into class for a while. throughout like 1/2 hour of the lecture, these two bitches from my tut were happily chatting, occasionally whispering (which is even more irritating...) directly behind me. i couldn't take it after a while so i turned and asked them to shut up politely. they blatently continued and talked, with frequent giggles. man for crying out loud, if you wanna talk fucking walk out of the class to talk. or either that wait till after the class. wat? you're going to give birth and it has to be so important???? FUCKING BITCHES.
then i couldn't take it so i walked down to the 2nd row. asked this innocent gal to put her bag somewhere and i went BANG BANG BANG.
- first bang: dropped my bag on the floor
- second bang: sat down
- third bang: put out the thing so i can write.
THINK they got the idea. well wanted them to anyway, i made it very obvious. after the lecture, after i finished fuming, i turned to the gal beside me and apologised if i was rude. and guess what those bitches apologised to me also. YOU BLOODY SHOULD.
well i mean in lectures i seldom talk, even if i do i try to keep the conversation VERY short. i mean it's not life and death what. ANDDD esp if i enjoy the lectures or classes or tut, i get VERY frustrated if someone around me makes noise because i get distracted (i get distracted VERY easily) and would not be able to listen and absorb.
=p stupid bitches..
Second incident (yesterday)
i went to watch a movie with ivan, alvina, jon and jan. (hahah guess i need to give myself a break..shouldn't be so uptight. anyway not going to spend much this weekend so..hehe)
i was sitting in between jan and another guy (with his gf sitting next to him) 15 minutes into the movie, the guy was still chatting with his gf. talking in chinese (i tink) i tink for every action or thing that happened, the guy had something to say. be a fucking critic then.... yeah so i couldn't take it because the show's supposed to be funny but it wasn't too enjoyable and funny for me. i turned to him because i was very distracted by him, glared at him and said "hey i'm watching a movie here, do you mind keeping it down?" then glared at him and turned back. short and sweet. think he got it. well i enjoyed the rest of my movie. fuckers all fuckers...
tsk... sorry that i'm easily distracted but there are sometimes when you should jus shut up or fuck off

it's my bro's b/d today!
hahah shall call him to wish him a happy birhday, not that he'll remember me calling him after 1 hour. =P
anyway hahah heard from a couple ppl that my blog didn't work or something. i checked it out. all's fine leh... =p
hmm got approached by someone and talked to someone. i will talk about this soon. now's not the right time i guess =)
i'll leave with this entry i got from yvonne's blog...funny...and interesting.
Just a random thought: If all the women in the world went through PMS at the same time, would that spell the end of mankind? No, I'm serious! Imagine approx 40% of the world's population at their worst - weepy, demanding, unreasonable, sensitive, volatile, crabby, depressed. And lots more. Whoa. Men, beware.
hahah yeap...shall get back to my work and hopefully...malcolm comes for lecture today. even if he doesn't *crosses finger* i shall keep doing my work. found quite a few good books in berwick. WHEE!
stupid me changed the essay topic yesterday because as i was looking for books for this particular topic, i realised i was going nowhere. better to change now than get a "P" or fail..i'll be damn disappointed.

anyway went to the gym after i did some work but i couldn't run for some reason. my body felt so heavy. =p so well i stopped... walked around..and started running but i couldn't get the momentum so i gave up for the day. hahaha
after gym i went out with byron. sigh..felt bad for letting him pay for dinner. i will treat you before you leave for china ok? =) thanks anyway
had quite a chat with byron and i said alot of things that i never said before. amazing. i never fail to amaze myself sometimes. =) well after laments and a bit of catching up, i wanted to go home because i felt tired.
right now i'm just relaxing in my room. tomorro will do more work. =p hahah may want to swim. we'll see...
wanted to write quite a bit but i forgot. damn it. thats why i need a journal everywhere i go. i have one but i keep forgetin to bring it out. no one to blame but myself. tomorro i must remember to... 1) do readings for my essay 2)finish up minutes 3)do one of my PR assignments 4)swim... heheh

my day
well what happened today? nothing much man. sheesh university life can be quite...boring esp when YOU HAVE NO MONEY!!! bahh.. i hate harping on it... oh well
guess what? once i stepped into my one and only class (this soci class)early in the morning, janne briefly mentioned that i have a cool blog. at that split instant i was horrified, embarrassed and shocked at once. MAN! turned out that her nephew locked her name into a search engine and found her name in my blog!!!! she even said something about the colour of my blog!!! argh! how embarrassing can that be??? hhahaha thank goodness i wasn't saying anything bad about her, *ponder* wait...did i?? argh! but i tried looking for her name in my blog using yahoo.com and i found an entry that said something to this extent " i like her and i think she likes me too" argh!!!! man!!!!
oh well...we watched mcLibel today. interesting to see the extent of how and what activists go through to see "justice" being served. some of the arguments that were put across were interesting and enlightening. one argument was that children were manupulated in advertisements to make ads appealing to the public. i mean i think advertisements like that have been overlooked and taken for granted. i sure didn't pick out anything from that, maybe i don't question the media enough.
however i didn't see the point in some of their arguments like cruelty to animals. if they were to fight the case properly and do more research on this, they would find out tat they'd have to prob take on court cases after court cases with many companies, not to mention MNCs.
enough said. think what dave and i-can't-rem-her-name did a good job. i applaud them for their effort, though i think it's like pointless. i wanna read up on this case soon...heheh
anyway we had two presentations today. one was good. i wouldn't have thought of taping 5 types of australian drama to show the class evidence because practically speaking, I HAVE NO BLOODY TAPE RECORDER! she was pretty concise but i think i can still do a better job.
second presentation was SO BAD. she was slouching, speaking to herself, shaking her legs, not showing evidence. it was so poorly presented that 3 thoughts came to mind. or well 3 possibilities. was she 1)nervous? 2)adopting i dn't give a two hoots attitude 3)so last minute that she gave up. think she'd better ask janne for another chance. =p i mean come on, leaving us hanging and going to the toilet to drink water??? hmmzz.. maybe i'm being harsh and critical.
anyway i got my results for my presentation. ern...thought i could do better but well for being so nervous and prob talking bulls, well guess i deserved it. HAHAHA yes kenneth. he has this saying that "you get what you deserve" but it doesn't always happen tat way. i shall argue about that later...or soon...
i got a HD-. my first HD this semester. janne's comment was "overall a strong presentation. very innovative and interactive. good use of a variety of materials" erm...so what does HD- mean... that i get 16/20? that is quite disappointing i feel. hahah last time for all my presentations, i got 9/10 lorrrr...man! i need to do well this sem man. i really need to. been doing quite a bit of thinking about everything. sigh.
okay...time to cook. was supposed to go for execs meeting, but wasn't feeling too well. i mean i came back at about 11ish. cooked my lunch (i'm really saving money heh heh) and watched dr phil with alv. then i tried to do work but i was so tired and distracted that i went over to alv's room to talk to her for a while. i dozed off as she was packing her room. when i woke up, i felt like shit so i went over to my room to sleep. kept waking up in my 3 hour sleep. man. i still feel like shit now....bleah!
okok..time to go...tok later!

it's too early..argh the sun!!!
hahaha... well it's 8.45am and i'm supposed to go to school. guess after writing this i'll make my way to the menzies building for my first lesson. BAH! well i've got quite a bit of work today and i'd better get them done. i think i got my rest yesterday already so....RENEE!!! BUCK UP!!! =p
sigh... it's too earlyyy... bahhh...well alv supposed to have classes at 9 so....i offered to wake up earlier to bathe. hahah no one to blame but myself.. but it's funny almost every week after i bathe and change, i hear alv's door open and i hear her scrambling to the toilet.. but today..? hmm tink she's tired.
another complaint now..well..ARGH!!! no money. damn it. i wanna work... anddd... sigh...looks like i'll be at home more often than i expect. shall invite ppl to come over instead of going out. er.. first i have to finish the whole pot of porridge...i put in too much rice...BAH!!!
okayzz..time to rush to class...

Streats - Cosmopolitan to return after 22 years
By Sharlene Tan on September 03, 2004
http://www.streats.com.sg/
AMERICAN lifestyle magazine Cosmopolitan will once again hit the newsstands in Singapore after being banned for 22 years. Observers see this as a sign that perhaps Singapore is becoming a little less strait-laced. After all, local magazines have been publishing equally racy, risque articles, and travelling Singaporeans have been able to get hold of Cosmopolitan, even just across the Causeway. Other signs that the custodians of public morals are becoming less stringent include the recent relaxation of rules which have allowed bar-top dancing. And HBO has started showing the TV series Sex And The City, albeit a somewhat cleaned-up version.
Mr Basskaran Nair, chairman of the Publications Consultative Panel, said: “We generally agreed that allowing the circulation of Cosmopolitan is a step in providing greater choice.” Of course, while the ban has been lifted, some measures have been taken to ensure that Cosmopolitan will not fall into the wrong hands. “The Media Development Authority has worked with magazine distributors to ensure that the public understands that it is an adult magazine not meant for children,” the authority said in a statement. “Hence the distributors have been asked to shrink-wrap the magazine (to prevent casual browsing) and to affix an advisory label on the cover with the words ‘Unsuitable for the young’.”
Cosmopolitan, the largest selling young women’s magazine in the world, and sold in 40 countries, was founded in 1886. It was revived in 1965 by editor Helen Gurley Brown, who pioneered its then-radical message to women: “Live big, go for it, be the best you can be in every area of your life”. The magazine’s liberal views on cohabitation and sex were radical for the Singapore of that time.

birthdates can tell who u are...
The number 1 energy suggests an increased measure of executive ability andleadership qualities than you path may have indicated. A birthday on day 1of any month gives greater will power and self-confidence, and very often arather original approach. This 1 energy may diminish your ability and desireto handle details, preferring instead to paint with a broad brush. You may be sensitive, but your feeling stay rather repressed.

~Couples~
it's not many times you fight, it's HOW you fight. yes couples do come into some sort of conflict from time to time but that's normal and perfectly healthy. BUT how you fight will let you see into the future- how you end up. If a conflict arises, get straight to the point, don't beat around the bush and get to the root of things.

hmm... i had quite a good day although i didn't do much work. i woke up, did my com2020 posting, then i slugged and listened to music before i heated up e bak kut teh and washed my clothes. did some readings before i started to print notes. i couldn't print the damn notes and was frustrated for almost 2 hours, meddling with it. i finally called jon and he came over to find out what was wrong with my printer. after trying out, and failing to print the notes, we both meddled with the printer until i found....my rubber band in my printer! no wonder the damn machine couldn't feed and take in the papers!! (#*&*(@^*&@# what a dumb ass renee...i tell you!!!
after tat we decided to drive to k-mart for a while ebcause i was feeling restless. i drove there and man...i tell u i HATE driving manual cars... bleah!
i watched aussie idol with jon for a while before i went home to bathe. i cooked jelly before going back to no7 to have curry with alvina and ivan. =p
nice day... =) wish everyday would be this relaxing... hehe

I STARTED A JOKE
I Started a Joke I started a joke, which started the whole world crying, but I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no.I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing, oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes, and I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.
Til I finally died, which started the whole world living, oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
