I really can't be bothered to please everyone now. I can never be nice all the time. Either way i appear to be, people would complain. Being silent, people say I never voice out my opinion. When i make some noise, people complain i'm always so sarcastic. Seriously i can be if i want to and i'm well aware of that. Blame it on selfishness or jealousy but i think if one's more comfortable doing it one's way.. fine.. don't complain. Loud and Expressive DOES NOT equate to u're right. Another discovery that i've made. People usually don't respond well to people who's exactly like them (i'm refering to being alike in the bad way). They just don't see it tt's all. Of course i jolly well know i might be refering to myself as well. Anyway i'm not as pissed anymore thus it speaks of my less evil words. But i can't leave it without putting something down in print. *printted by the devil in me*

Self-discovery

What exactly is stress? I'm not sure if i've ever felt stress. I always hear the adults telling my cousins "Must be lk ur jie-jie.. always so happy go lucky" and my friends say "mel's the best la. mel's always lk...Sky drop she'll be there to hold everything". Well i smile graciously to all these comments. Yupz what a beautiful life everyone paint me to have. I'm glad to be seen in such light too. Moving on... There's 2 things i've discovered about myself (ok maybe not recently just that I've nv admitted it out loud). Whenever I dun have the mood to do the work i'm suppose to do or shld i say when i feel stress? (ok watever).. i'll be tempted to do 2 things: 1. Eat 2. Shop Both r not things that are good though ppl say it's ok to indulge once in a while. Firstly, my eat = to munching all day! I'm quite surprised at the amt of junk tt i can eat haha ppl always say "r u sure? u're still so skinny" Alrig...

SMU Peeps New Year Gathering

With the courtesy of Faith, we held a little New Year gathering at her place. Thanks faith! *** My bro bought a Hamster yesterday! haha though i'm quite afraid of touching things beside humans. Especially since it's a furry little thing, i must say the hamster is quite cute!! Its really really smalll.. i've decided to call it puny! haha though it's not my hanster, i've forced my bro to call it tt too =) I dun care! hurhur... Nothing in its cage now (actually we placed it in a old fish tank). We only put in a toilet roll and it keeps hiding inside.

Happy Chinese New Year!

Reunion Dinner on New Year's Eve... New Year Day 1 (Chu yi) My fav dish. It's a vegetarian dish we always eat on Chu yi. Think only cantonese eats this. yummy.. and we also have to drink Cheng Teng. New Year Day 2 (Chu er)

Penning down my thoughts

Cheese said maybe I should pen my thoughts down. Actually, I did thought of it but i also hesistated about it. One thing about blogs, which to me is supose to be like an online diary... A diary is suppose to be somewhere u can write down personal stuff. However, everyone who knows my blog add is reading this entry. I feel wierd saying things that I do not want people to know about me but I also want an avenue to let things out. So.. this time, heck! People who read it.. please keep it to yourself k.. Sorry for letting u c this side of me too. I think the me that i portray is always the care free, forever happy mel.. but i'm sorry to disappoint, this's not always the case. Well, we were just talking about jobs. Just a short short talk su min dear haha borrowing ur bf listening ear coz i was bored. I was saying how much i envy my friend for getting a job already. As my friend's working the European hours for operations, she commands a whopping 4k paycheck!! Tt's a huge pa...

Fly me away

I want to go overseas toooo. Lucky derrick's going to Italy for exchange. Just received his msg. He's on the plane now. I can so visually his surroundings. I loveee taking planes hah but.. of course not the budget ones. One of the things i love abt plane rides are the food. Yeah i noe i'm wierd but i loveeeeee. I always get to eat my bro's share of food coz he suffers from motion sickness so he only sleeps through a plane ride. Kind of regret not going for exchange. But none of my clicks in sch went either and none of them regretted. Oh maybe nette did regret but it was entirely not her fault. Luckily i decided to be independent a little and go for work and travel. Otherwise i would have 1 more regret. Once again, my independent was spurred by nette. Hah... Thanx nette i realised tt u played quite a part in my travelling during smu days haha. Ok better start reading a bit more for my midterm tomorrow. Super no mood. i wonder if it's only me.. but i always wonder how...

New Room!

The only exciting thing of the week.. My new furniture for my room have arrived! I've an entire new room. Except that i've kept my old study table. Din want it at first but i guess my dad was right in asking me to keep it. It is indeed quite useful. Now i'm studying in my room instead of the living room. Feel that my room is rather cozy =) I've upgraded to a queen size bed. coool... I really like my rm now. Still in the midst of making it more perfect. As for my old furniture, I do feel a little bad in throwing them away. Well i can't wait for the salvation army coz they'll only be free after CNY. there's no space in my hs for my old furniture. I always think that here I am with new stuf while some poor ppl out there doesn't even have a table to study on. On a side note, Happy valentine's day peeps.. I've mid term on V day la.. anyway no more little pressie for V day this year. But i still love u gals hah. On a side side side note.. everything th...

"DO", "Don't", "In-between" recommendations of the week

Do.... Eat the wan tan mee at Sunshine plaza! Although there's a branch at bugis, the sunshine plaza one is much better! Don't club at.... 1. Butter Factory 2. MOS Now butter fac is ranked 1st on my "do-not-go clubs" list. My quote for the night..." I rather dance with ah bengs than to dance on an empty dance floor " In -between... Would you drive this car? heh I was quite thrilled when my dad drove pass this hello kitty car. I was just thinking of painting my rm pink when i noticed this entirely pink, hello kitty car. The words on the side of the car says "Princess Kitty". The interior has pink fur and alot of hello kitty accesories. Though i'm quite a fan of pink, i doubt i've the courage to drive such a car. I think it's a sweetness over kill. It was the centre of attraction. Everyone's staring at it. Wonder who's the driver.. hmm...

Comic Relief heh..

UBS Kids Gathering

A gathering at last for us UBS interns. Wasn't tt hard afterall. Just an email and wala! we had our first lunch gathering. Thanx John!! I guess initiative is needed too. It was nice meeting up with everyone. Though we are in the same sch, I hardly see everyone. The only people i meet most often is Fiona and Glen...coz you guys are my proj mate haha. Oh and not forgetting my TA, Jem. I'm such a hermit. I'll juz run home after class everyday. Can't stand staying in sch. Well it was a pity we din take any pics juz for memory sake. Even though i brought my cam ( it's with me almost all the time =) i'm turning into quite a picture whore ), i was so hungry waiting for all, i forgot abt pics. The wan tan mee at sunshine plaza is quite nice! Douglas thinks we shld go back there again sometime. Y not man?? I second him. It's juz a short walk from sch and the stall was even featured in some channel 8 program. yum..yum.. I'm sure it's better then Elgin's f...

The attack of Bird Shit

I guess I compensated my staying home all sat with staying out late on a monday night. Had dinner at Village at the Heerens followed by KTV at Partyworld with Aaron, Elgin and Ru. Both visits were my first. Always thought Partyworld was very lounge like. Like those places where guys calls for gals hah. Oh And one thing I've to comment! The system makes picking songs sooo difficult. I was so tired from staring at the screen! They have so many old singers, I just can't find my songs by looking at the pics of the singers coz i guess the singers i know are quite limited. Limited to new singers and of course.. male singers who are cute hurhur... I'm a sucker for watching mtvs of cute guys in ktv. Anyway my voice hasn't recovered fully. I was still nursing my cold. Ohhh i must mention! Elgin singing was sooooo hilarious i couldn't stop laughing.. i'm not exaggerating.. the rest can vouch for me. It was the first time i heard him sing. I couldn't stop laughing thro...

sunday @ sch

I'm in sch now. Proj meeting has ended quite long ago but i'm lazy to go back haha. I'm sitting all alone in a gsr now. Have been quite some time since i'm sitting in one. I'm going to get new furniture later! yeah! i'm quite excited. I hope my parents will bring me to a place where there's furniture i lk and will be able to get it. I hate comprimising too much since i've to use them for quite a long time. It's not lk a cheap top where i can not wear it if i decided i do not lk it anymore. Had lunch with kenneth yesterday =) Thanx kenneth for the treat!!! I love the mussels at fish and co. yummy~~ It was great meeting up with u and listening to all your lame and corny stories once again. I'll try to drop by and visit all the ubs peeps soon... i promise!

Weekend is here

Had my first project meeting with prof. It's the official start of my busy time in sch.. at last! It's already the end of week 4. In the past sem, I would have started the ball rolling much much earlier. Whatever the case, after my project meeting today, as usual, I was hit by the shopping bug hah. Went to the nearest mall, which everyone know, is Bugis. I bought some bangles from Diva and it only cost $2.50. It was initally $10 and there was a 50% off. To my surprise, the person only charged me $2.50! Woohoo i was quite shocked but i was happy at my good buy. I also bought Sheshido powder and... i did my nails haha i'm so vain. Just a sudden urge to do a manicure. Was tempted to do a pedi as well but decided at spending 50 odd bucks on nails is way too expensive. probably I'll just paint them myself anyway who would go around scrutinizing my nails, especially toe nails. Took a pic of my freshly painted nails =) It's quite troublesome... now i can't really type ...

Things that are currently going on

1. Feeling terrible today. My throat hurts so badly. I was perfectly fine yesterday! Even made my way to Chomps for dinner. I'm amazed i actually went down. 2. Lazy but yet have to read the many never ending chapters. Projects dateline coming up. 3. Confused! Hate mixed feelings.
It was quite a fruitful sat for me. Met up with the SMU peeps at last for lunch at Kenny Rogers. Yes we all know about the cockroach incident so we went to the marina one instead. It was quite empty. After lunch. we even went for desserts. I was so full til night! Nette, Jacyn & Evan are missing from the pics!!! For the night, I went to Zouk again but this time aaron and his gf came along. Zouk freaks and poor Ivan were not there. haha think he got scared by me for scolding him. I dare say i can scold pppl quite well just as long as i do not meet him face to face. Serve him right for disturbing me all the time when he can't even remember who is who. one time he called me balissa one time he called me stephaine. (Can't spell our names for nuts) Please lor... he just wants to xian girls still sms me about how sincere he is in wanting to be friends with me. (He can't spell sincere! faintz). He so reminds me of jerk face!!! (yucks.. well it's history la) That aside... E...

Corp=Corpse

Corp reporting is killing me!! Every time i leave the class, I've this premonition that I'm so gonna fail! Oh god... Noooo i hate this feeling and i dun wan this feeling to stay. How can sheryl just scream "woohoo" whenever the lesson end. She's just glad she's out of the horrible prof's class but i just dun share the same sentiments. On one hand i feel glad that i'm out, on the other hand i start worrying about my final grade. My finance is no where near accpetable man. I feel so pai sei being a 4th year student. I don't wan get F for participation! But i really have no idea what is prof asking.. hope my rambling of nonsense whenever prof calls my name would not render me an F man. I made the effort.. i seriously did.

Night @ Zouk

Getting picked up by guys tt you don't fancy or maybe even younger than you somemore not cute at all guys is not funny... To think our (Sheryl and co.) aim everytime we club is to see who can hook a guy and get him to buy us drinks for free. Though we say it for fun as it has never really happened before, it happened to me last night. My record breaking night.. 3 guys at a go. Ppl, I'm not proud of it at all.. i'm serious. Only thing, I managed to get a guy to treat all of us free drinks. After much pestering, i gave my no. lor.. and i obliged to a group photo in the end. For the other guys.. i'm sorry ru.. it's elgin and his dumb idea. We gave your no. instead must spread out the harm alittle. Oh not forgetting, Steffi.. she was also as hot =) Poor Elgin.. his most miserable night haha. No girls..Only all guys ard him trying to ask him abt us. He was like the pimp hahahah. He has phobia in going clubbing with me and stef liao. He says we're so troublesome. Well...
I feel pathetic! I've been stuck at sch since my lesson ended at 330. It has been pouring ever since. As i'm carrying especially lots of stuff today, I can't run under the rain or even have hands to hold my umbrella. Not forgetting, the rain is super duper heavy... not a drizzle mind u. Have not ate since breakfast this morning. I'm cold, hungry and tired. The corp reporting text i've been trying to read since 330 is not giving me much comfort. Nothing seems to be getting into my head. Now, the last bad thing that can happen to me is.. my phone batt is running low. pleaseeeeee do not die on me. For all the people out there who were so concerned about me.. Thanx sooo much. Although there's nothing much u can do to help me since no one has a car. I really appreciate all the calls, sms, msn msges and most importantly, my dear friend ru jie who offered to brave the storm to come down to accompany me. However, ur idea of calling elgin to pick me is absurd! totally a ...

Supper @ Adam Rd

The horror movie, The Wicked Man was BAD. Real bad.. I wonder which part of it is horrifying besides the fact that a man was burnt alive. I heard giggles throughout a supposedly horror movie. I even caught a glimspe of people nodding away during the show. What a let down... should have just watched Blood Diamond instead even though the plot does not entice me. Had supper with the 2 "most impt" guys in my uni life hah and Faith. It's so hard to coordinate a big group outing. Everyone seem to have something going on some time or another. I just can't be bothered anymore. Well evan took the rap and was scolded by sheryl for not asking her along haha. Too bad for u Evan.. LOL. Guess it's just u. You have the "come on.. unleash all ur unhappiness on me" face. It was a rojak galore. We had indian and chinese rojak.

Weekend Gathering @ Steffi's Place

Had a little gathering at Steffi's new place on sat. Girl, your hs is beautiful!! i especially love the back yard area =) Thanx Steffi and her parents for hosting us. The food was good and not forgetting, the dessert! In fact, that was supposed to be the aim of the gathering.. to try steffi's dessert hah. It was yummy~~~
