It's been 3 concerts in a row within 2 weeks. Not the same content for each of the 3 concerts, with each concert varying slightly from the other. But the third one took the cake, she actually came down to distribute angpows that contained a $25 Resorts World Sentosa voucher.
"Wow! Bang for our buck! We spend $200 on a concert to get a $25 voucher for a hotel room which probably costs $300 odd?" - and the best thing was, we didn't get the angpow. Boo. Who asked us to sit near to Mr. Eshin?
I think I loved the second HK concert most of all among ALL the concerts I've seen. It totally spelt lovely, beautiful, meaningful, wonderful and in my eyes, nary an error. The concert guest was fabulous and in all, the concert was just intimate. A great encore session if you ask me as well. She actually came out to sing 5 songs! I totally salute the HK fans for their persistence though. Half an hour after the last encore, they were still cheering "Yanzi! Yanzi! Yanzi!"
"When in HK, do as the HK-ers does - protesting and cheering."
It's time to settle down and get ready for the second half of school. Scares me how time passes so quickly, it's already midway through the second trimester. In another 4 more trimesters, I'll be a graduate already!
Okay, enough talk. Pictures!
Here's to hoping I have more chances to take pictures of her.

Haha! I finally updated my profiles. Check the right side.
Oh no, the turkey's still in my head la! I can't seem to get it out of my head, which apparently, the evidence can be seen clearly from my updated profile.
I just want this week to be over, so that I can start on my assignments and essays. The two tests this week are really making me cranky.

Well, I've officially started University life yesterday. It's been quite a while since I went back to school, and initially I was feeling a little apprehensive, not knowing what to expect. However, I've realised that as long as you go in with a clean slate, you find that you can accept alot of things easily and to my delight, I've found lessons rather interesting.
In the past, school was a chore to me. Past meaning polytechnic life hor, not secondary school life. I literally had to drag myself out of bed everyday, and I jumped at every chance to miss school. However, it's different now. Although the journey to school is much further (it takes 1 hour!), there's something in it that makes me want to work for it.
Also, I've promised myself that I will work hard and not end up hating the school after 2 years there. Here's to cheering that 2 years will pass by swiftly and fruitfully!
Wish me luck people.

Wah, 3 more exams to go! YES! AFSYS paper was quite all right, thought I could handle most of the questions inside there. Of course there'll be the exceptional 1 or 2 questions that stumbled me, but I think I'll do okay overall.
OMG I just saw Bee's new blog! HOR, SHE CHANGE IDOL ALREADY! Her blog is utterly cluttered with Rui En's pictures man! Okay, my blog skin isn't exactly a role model either, considering I have absolutely no Yanzi pictures in it, BUT I blogged about Yanzi recently. AND BEE DIDN'T!
Anyways there was some event at Expo Hall today and Mr Tay was one of the guest stars! Damn! I wanted to wake up early to go and see, but I was too tired dreaming about him. Guess what I dreamt about. I dreamt that there was a games segment, and one of the games being played was Truth or Dare. And I got selected up stage to play the game and I chose Truth.
'I am married to Mr Tay Ping Hui' and then Mr Tay came over to kiss me LOL!!!!!!!!! Such a nice dream right? I haven't had such a nice dream for ages leh! Come come, I want more dreams like this! =X
Saw Nat Ho's CNY song music video while waiting for 'A New Life' to start and I have to admit, he was so cute in the MV! Elvin was looking quite silly, trying to dance but he can't dance la. Nat was so much more natural than him. And there were some solo shots of Nat that was toooooo cute! Bee must be jealous that I have seen the MV and she hasn't. MUAHAHAH!
On top of that, I saw Nat's CNY greeting AGAIN on TV. Wah I must be damn lucky to see Nat twice in the span of 15 minutes you know.
Back to studying, and dear Gods in heaven, please let me dream some nice dream again. Preferably something with Yanzi or Yvonne inside tonight! I will roast a pig for you! WAHAHA!
men should not accept our destiny, we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
Whee, another 8 more days and my life at SP is going to come to an end. The thought of it thrills me you know, having 熬过 this past 3 years without having much friends. =D
Anyways shocking news! Just when the news that MC King passed away was about to settle down, another tragedy hit Singapore. Or rather, Hollywood. I'm not sure if this guy is actually popular here in Singapore, but he was popular enough for me to recognise him in films such as say, Brokeback Mountain? The upcoming Joker in the new Batman movie?
Yeah, it's Heath Ledger. OMG right?! He's only 28 and has a daughter, and suddenly he was just found dead in the Olsen twins' apartment with pills around him. His death isn't really surprising, but what the heck was he doing in the Olsen twins' apartment when I doubt he's actually on good terms with them? Did he just happen to rent the apartment, or *GASPS!* the Olsen twins brought him there and killed him! LOL.
Guess we'll just have to wait for the autopsy report to be out before we can conclude anything. But I'll take the funnier option that one of the Olsen twins killed him, because they can seriously look quite deadly with their current looks, what with all the anorexia that they're undergoing.
Anyways back to Asia.
I've just finished watching Fathers and Sons! Oh and yeah, it's quite good! I mean one of the better dramas that TVB has done in 2007 at least. It was quite enjoyable watching the show, and I thoroughly thought that the actors were quite well casted. And of course, it was refreshing to see Wong Hei back after such a long hiatus!
The good:
The actors/actresses were quite good in acting! I mean, with marquee names like Bobby, Ha Yu, Wong Hei, Yoyo, Tavia, I was sure that I'd get something better than as compared to say, Price of Greed? And the theme song is tops! I totally love the theme song sung by Eason Chan. The storyline was good too and definitely the child actors were amazing! Plus, it had a family feeling around it and anything that has to do with family sure rock balls!
The bad:
WAH I HATED THE ENDING! TVB has this habit of making bad endings for dramas, and so even if the drama is good overall, it would have been let down by the mediocre ending. This was no exception. Everything was too sudden and too perfect in my opinion. And one more thing: I hated that Tavia broke up with Wong Hei. I was actually rooting for Wong Hei and Tavia to be together!
Overall rating: 3.5/5 for me. It's good, but the ending was really disappointing after I had high hopes for it.
Flying back to Taiwan! I've been listening to Fahrenheit's new album recently and haha, I actually prefer the songs in this album as compared to the previous one. But I have to bring up one important point: I DO NOT LIKE FAHRENHEIT! I mean, I make it a point never to support 偶像派 groups, and to always support 实力派 groups. (I don't know if I typed 派 correctly).
And Fahrenheit definitely is a 偶像派 group. Throw in one or two good singers and the rest are just pretty boys and TADAH! You have yourself a new idol group. I mean, I don't say it without evidence of course. Take a look at the video below.
I love the song actually. But Wu Zun's singing is just really below par. I think he better not sing in future and just continue to act and look pretty. Yan Ya Lun's singing is obviously the best in the group and I actually like his voice. It's a pity he's in the group. Oh and don't you think, Wang Dong Cheng's lips look too red? LOL. Sighs. Fahrenheit fans, please do not kill me. I'm just stating my own opinion.
Finally! Yes, another post on Yvonne. I must be utterly mad to post continuously about her everyday. LOL. Anyways, I've just finished watching the trailers for [A Mobile Love Story], which is an idol-based 20 episodes drama. Now take it from me that I never watch idol dramas, especially after MVP Valentine. So actually I wasn't actually gaga over this show when it surfaced a few months back.
But when I was surfing through trusty old Youtube today, I found the videos and started watching it. OMG, I'm not too sure if it was Yvonne that pulled me into the drama, but I got very hooked on watching the trailers itself! I mean, the drama has all the makings of an idol-based drama, but something is inside the show that other shows lack. I think it's Yvonne that other shows lack. Which is why, I'm going to buy the VCD if it comes out in stores. Take a look at the trailers below.
From what I can infer, Wallace and Yvonne were a couple last time, and Wallace dedicated a win to Yvonne, and said something along the lines of not being able to do anything if not for the help of Yvonne. After which, Yvonne proposed to Wallace. Har? Why did Yvonne propose to Wallace? Shouldn't it be the other way round?
Anyways, at the wedding, Yvonne actually ran away from the wedding for God-knows what reason. Wallace then tried to call her phone but someone else picked it up. Shall not say too much about the someone else but I'll just skip to Yvonne's parts. Yvonne found out she had cancer and could not live for long, which was why she ran away from the wedding.
Some pictures from the show:
SO SAD! WHY EVERY SHOW YVONNE ALSO MUST DIE ONE?!
Heard that she had a second wedding in the show before she passed away peacefully. OOPS! SPOILER! But the main point is: why does Yvonne have to suffer in almost every drama that she acts in? STUPID PRODUCERS! She really look like she like to die meh?
In [Stepping Out], she acted as Haiyan who was abused by the husband and made to walk on fire. In [An Enchanted Life], she acted as Shanqi whose father did not want to acknowledge her at first. In [A New Life], she acted as Ahmei, who had cancer and died in the show. In [True Heroes], she acted as Irene who tried committing suicide but couldn't (LOL!). In [Beautiful Illusions], she acted as Xiaofen who was killed by Nick Shen's character. Lastly, in [Metamorphosis], she acted as Wanrou who was raped and then subsequently killed herself.
WAH LAO! Out of so many dramas, only in [An Enchanted Life] did Yvonne had a happy ending. When will Mediacorp actually start giving Yvonne nicer roles to act in ar? I have to admit though, a sad ending will actually get a Best Actress award. LOL. Cue: Metamorphosis.
Anyways! Watch [A Mobile Love Story]!
men should not accept our destiny,we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
Hello hello! Another 3 more posts and I would have hit my 500th post. Isn't much actually, considering that I've had this blog for 3 years and 8 months. Come May, it will be my 4th year having this blog. Wah never thought that I could actually have a blog that long, seeing my peers change blogs or leave it inactive for months and months to collect dust. LOL.
FYP presentation was just over, so was my MD lab test. Both kena tekan like shit, basically. ESPECIALLY FYP! The lecturer, Mr Chay was relentless man, asking questions like mad. And I didn't know how to answer some of the questions too. WAH KNS! I seriously hope I pass the module.
Even if I pass FYP, there is another module which leaves me undue worries - MD. Today's lab test was crap, blame it on me not reading through the lab sheets. I really hope I can at least scrap through this subject with a D, give me a D and I'll be eternally grateful to my lecturer!
Tomorrow will be my MD test 2. THAT IS THE ULTIMATE KILLER! I haven't attended much lessons for topic 3 on mechanisms and that decision is starting to bear fruit now. Whenever I look at the examples, I have completely no clue what to do at all. Or else why you think I'm so free to blog?
Friday will be another test and that rounds up my series of tests I will ever have in SP, barring any repeat in modules of course. AEROSPACE MATERIALS. Even though I failed the previous test, I think I should pass overall la, because of the report and presentation of the assignment. :)
Come weekend, it'll be a weekend choke full of Yvonne again! Haha, thanks to Bee, I've seen some blogs of people who go around Mediacorp chasing any rat, ant, dog or cat in every corner. Very colorful vocabulary, I must say. But definitely nothing more than an actual air head if you get what I mean. Chasing one person is tiring enough leh actually, but chasing the entire Mediacorp?
WAH HIS STAMINA VERY GOOD!
Anyways, back to Yvonne. Attending a Lancaster beauty talk this Saturday. While I haven't registered, I'll be going down to see if I can register on the spot or else I'd have to wait outside with the others. Think it'll be quite interesting la, considering that all girls need to attend a beauty talk someday. Have to check my pockets though, they've been rather empty for the past few weeks, just like water is scarce in a desert. Sighs....
And on Sunday, I'll be camping at home to watch the new Giant variety show. And yes, Yvonne is appearing in the first episode. I can't wait actually, have seen the trailers for the show and Yvonne really looks crazy playing together. AIE, I wish I could have registered and played along too. How cool will that be man? Haha.
It's been rather long since I've updated anything on my wei yi, so here goes:
PICTURES FROM THE RECENT SEPIA ECO GARDENS PERFORMANCE IN MALAYSIA. My oh my, does she look ravishingly beautiful. Which is why, critics of me can never criticise who I love better. Isn't it obvious? Haha, although I have contact with Yvonne, but yeah. Yanzi and Yvonne are on the same level la.
Besides, they've gotten the recognition of TIAN HOU/YING HOU through their respective industry. Isn't that something to be proud of?
Btw, all credits of Yanzi photos are from Queen from YZULTD FC. Hehe, thanks Queen!
At the rehearsal:
The actual performance itself:
Shit, she's so pretty. Doesn't look like she's turning 30 though. LOL.
Below are some more pictures from the recent MD:
Me and my beloved mummy!
COUSINS AGAIN!
One of my best friends in life.
ENJOY!

*This post contains spoilers. Bee, I think you better not read. LOL
A few pictures taken from the recent Rondeau and Musical Delights 2008. Finally me and Cindy have graduated! We always have our concert dates near each other and both of us will go to each other's concert. Finally we don't need to do that anymore! Hehe.
Ahhhh Percussion section 2007 photo. I LIKE!
The year 3 seniors from Percussion section.
Good news though. I've finally finished my FYP! xx months of slogging and worrying for this FYP has finally come to an end! I managed to do the impossible and completed the FYP report on Friday. Imagine the waves of relief and happiness that I felt. Now all that's left of my poly school life is to study hard for the upcoming tests and exams!
Just saw this from K and Myolie's expression is really funny! OMG! This scene is from War of In Laws II where Myolie offers tea to Liza Wang.
Yo! Yo! Yo! Ophelia! YumCha!
Credits to: http://tvb.windy-goddess.net/
Ophelia is Liza Wang's character name in the show. When I saw this, I literally ROFLMAO! Omg, Myolie is really funny! But I think she doesn't look good with long hair and Bosco's hair in the show is also very very bad! I haven't watched the first WOIL but I think it'll be a good show!
OMG! I just finished watching the last episode of The Golden Path! Aiyaaaaa, me and Bee were totally wrong! Initially I thought Felicia Chin died in the end! BUT SHE DIDN'T! Rougu-mei, Jin Long and Kaijie died in the end! *Mr Tay died! BOOHOOOOOO!
Rougu-mei was killed by Kaijie, and Jin Long actually had the chance to kill Kaijie but he didn't. Instead when he threw Rougu-mei's ashes into the sea, he took his own life. And Kaijie was stabbed and died when he was in hiding. There was this waiter who brought in his food and stabbed him.
I WILL KILL THAT WAITER FOR KILLING MY HUSBAND MAN!KNS

ahhhhhhhhh been a long time since i blogged. there's actually nothing much to blog anyways. cindy's concert is tml!!!!!as a fan of her i should go and cheer her on, even if im going alone. lol. moreover i have to give her encouragement cus it's her first time playing piccolo for concert. :)
terribly busy these few weeks, and i foresee myself being even busier. busy with school, school work, band, dramas, practice, fyp. especially fyp, seeing that i have to rush this final lap cus there's not much time left. but other than that everything's going well. haha. i really never thot that there will be any period in SP that i would actually enjoy. but im enjoying my last semester here.
watching drive of life, love guaranteed, and truimph in the skies right now. sometimes it's really difficult to watch so many dramas at the same time, cus u mus remember the plot and people and characters. for instance, in drive of life and truimph in the skies, there's at least 3 members in the cast that are acting in both shows man. haha. how to remember?
however, having watched truimph in the skies at least thrice, i can practically memorise the plot. i duno why i love this drama so much either, haha i duno how to describe the feeling at all.mebbe if you guys wanna watch can ask me! haha.
band practices are going well, percussion practices are going well too. i'll be performing in a few concerts this upcoming 3 months. so will be pretty busy. and i also need to start looking for an outside band after SP band already. actually i've already decided what band i wanna get into, but i duno if i can do so only. WESTWINDS ROCKS! ever since i saw esther play bassoon in one concert i've been totally enamoured with the band. and there's cindy inside. BONUS POINT!
lol guess i'll stop here. short update only,but it's just for me to feel that i've not been lazy not updating this blog =x
men should not accept our destiny, we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
the metamorphosis fever is still on in me and pinkbee man. we've been saying '正义是存在的!' for the past few days. actually i've been saying that justice doesn't exist, because of the star awards nominations. zzz but i shall not harp on it.
btw, bee still owes me a blogskin! muahaha. time to change blog skin again!
school has been alright. im taking care not to slack in my work. and i dun feel that i've slacked. mebbe some days i skip school, but that's to recharge seriously. anyways elearning is coming up soon. fyp is right on the way, although we have to chiong a bit but that's okay. as long as i feel the team is okay i am assured.
band practices, percussion practices, sectionals. haha. i love band. with all my life.
METAMORPHOSIS ROCKS!
men should not accept our destiny,we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
oh yay!! metamorphosis has broken the current viewership record!!!i tink it beat the viewership of mars vs venus!! to prove that im not biased, because mars and venus had mr tay acting in it. and people who know me will know that im very very very for mr tay.
so to say that metamorphosis rocks is a truly justifiable statement =D
this week's current viewership for metamorphosis. 1.01 million!!!! WOOOHOOOO!
a quick recap on the story. because ouyang went to chase shaoqi by car, he resulted in killing wanrou's father and brother. upon hearing the news, wanrou's mother collapsed as she couldn't accept the fact and fell ill. wanrou's initial love for ouyang turns to hate [because love is the direct opposite of hate] and she slapped him at her father and brother's funeral. that scene was really sad. because ouyang couldn't retaliate at all as it was his fault in the initial place. but he really wanted to make it up to wanrou.
wanrou then tells ouyang that they initially had a beautiful dream together and they could have progressed further. but his heroic tendencies led to her whole family being killed. and her perfect world was shattered apart. what really added the oil to the fire was that wanrou's mother passed away after wanrou went back down. ouyang was so upset that he went drinking and blah blah. he turned up at wanrou's house and she was so full of hatred for him that she charged with him at a knife. asking her to kill him, wanrou spares no thought and tries to kill ouyang but xiaoqian turns up jus in time.
on the other hand, xicun and xiaoqian are getting along well. they're helping wanrou get back together. and one day xicun plans a surprise proposal party and finally touches xiaoqian's heart. xiaoqian agrees to marry him. xicun in the meantime finds out that wanrou shares the same philosophy as dragontooth and invites her to be part of the organisation. she joins dragontooth and succeeds in using hypnotism for her first mission - to kill the novelist luo shen.
btw, hypnotism is really scary. imagine that you're completely defenseless and you're totally vulnerable to everything. someone else is controlling your mind in the meantime and you wouldn't have an inkling of what actually happened. so therefore i've made up my mind to read up about hypnotism and prevent people from using that on me. =D
oh, xiaoqian finds out that xicun belongs to dragontooth. jus when everything was smooth sailing for her! but she didn't confront him about that issue. i duno why. but the next episode will tell alot of tings. WHICH I CANT WATCH BECAUSE I HAVE BAND!
on the academic side, this semester's doing pretty well. i've been attending lessons and listening to lessons. actually i found out that if i really concentrate i can grasp the topic well. i've been wasting my time in school for 2.5 years already. let me try to make amends on this last semester. i have confidence that i will do well :)
on the band side, it's going pretty well. many gigs coming up. im seriously wondering im going to cope with everything, but i have confidence that i can. 4 MD pieces are settled and they're not easy pieces man. i cant wait to actually work on them. one of the songs require me to bring my timpani skills to a higher level man. i love challenges.
men should not accept our destiny, we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
After reading Bee's blog just quite a few minutes ago, I decided to blog in a similar format as her. Oh well, here goes.
1) Metamorphosis
This is really a good drama. I think I've never been so hooked onto a particular Singapore drama before, even [Honor and Passion] or [The Peak]. Because this really tops off as one of the best dramas that Mediacorp has ever produced. The cast is perfect, the storyline splendid, the acting astounding. Every night around 10.30pm, Bee and I will be chatting online over that particular episode of the show and we will like guess what will happen in the next episode. Of course, having spoilt my own endings by reading 8days and watching MOBTV, I know what will happen.
However, Bee doesn't know. So she's kept in suspense. LOL. I'm still rooting for the same two actors - Chen Hanwei and Yvonne Lim. Basically because Terence Cao pisses me off whenever he acts in any show, and I'm partial towards Ruien and Thomas Ong. Because there's Thomas Ong, I can tahan anything else. LOL.
I love the show so much so that I've made a collage of 4 actors. =D
2) Facebook
As compared to probably about 2 million people, I actually find this Facebook SUPER IRRITATING. Maybe it's because of the million and one things that a user has to do; downloading applications, sending applications to people. I am actually developing a phobia about Facebook man. As I was just chatting with Xian just now, Facebook is actually a program or cheap thrill entertainment for [eat full and got nothing to do] people.
I'm too busy with school and dramas to actually care about this Facebook. I'll go check it out once in a while and see the garguantuan amount of things that I have to do. :(
3) School
It's becoming more and more stressful! I'm resigned to planning to endure through each and every week of school slowly. NO MORE LONG TERM PLAN. I just need to get through each week with dying. What with every lecturer hurrying us about that damn FYP, and telling us that students in the 2nd semester do worser than those in the 1st semester, it's really a blow to our self esteem, confidence and what-so-ever.
ROAR!
I can't wait for everything to finish. For now, I have to rely on band, dramas, yanzi, friends and family to endure through this particularly tough period of time. I have to work hard!
men should not accept our destiny,we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
firstly, i wanna say happy birthday to my dearest senior cum bitch - JOCELYN!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hehe happy 21st birthday!and i hope there's many more happy memories in the future! =D=D
next, im very glad to say that i had a pleasant surprise ytd when i was going home. because i saw my secondary school darling - joycelyn! muahahhaa i couldn't recognise her at first [cus it was quite dark eh] but one ting's good. my darling is even more chio than ever!hahaha totally stunned man.
i tink whoever is gonna be her bf probably didn't consider the fact 'inner beauty' and immediately launched into wooing her LOL. this is one of the rare moments when outer beauty really truimphs and captures someone's heart immediately. wahahaha!
thirdly, school was pretty okay today. i mean, no one pissed me off. and that's okay. so like almost more than half the class changed but aie, who cares. i still know the rest of the others. and i am also very glad to say that i didn't fall asleep for any of the lectures. though i felt like. but luckily there were chocolates. MEIJI! hehe!
lastly,
METAMORPHOSIS is a really good show! one of the best that i've watched man. and i dare say it's actually even better than honor and passion, and [honor and passion] had my mr tay in it. so it's really a good show man. chen hanwei rocks balls in this show. definitely my fave char. and i have to say, yvonne lim and chen hanwei really look matching man.
too bad i know yvonne lim is gonna turn bad. cus chen hanwei accidentally killed her family i tink. SOBS tragic love story. but today's episode was good. cus chen hanwei gave yvonne lim a surprise and i have to say, if any guy does that ar. it's already very good. hehe.
i shall refrain from crying when the tragic love story comes. TRY! but seriously why whywhy?!?!?!
argh.
men should not accept our destiny,we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
zzzzzzzzz!a few more hours before school starts. and im getting pre-school jitters again!and while the other tertiary school are still having holidays, SP has to start tml!
starting in a new class. while i don't really care about it that much, i really hope i can just get by this semester without any hiccups you know. let me get a reasonable grade so that i can pull my overall grades up. im not asking much! so pls pls, let me be determined!
one ting's good though. i do not need to go back to school as a snake, but as a normal person!because my sunburns have recovered!thanks to dad who asked me to put skin repair, i started peeling like a snake for the past few days and my dustbin's filled with dead skin man. wooohoooo! i can't wait for the next swimming session, but SUN BLOCK LOTION PLS!
and i was sick a few days ago, but amazingly after i went to joyce's part today i felt better. haha. now i feel very fit to go to school. so far everything's looking up well and im quite looking forward to my new school semester. *because it's my last semester*
went to meiji factory with xian on friday and omg!there were so many chocs, sweets, biscuits up for sale. and it's like they're so much cheaper than those that i buy from supermarkets. at least 2 bucks cheaper! no where can i find such a deal. and singaporeans being singaporeans, of course there were alot of people there and everyone was grabbing for the best deal ever. haha but of cus being pros, me and xian managed to get alot. buying about 50bucks worth of stuff. =D
there's still many tings i have not done this holidays!i badly need to go watch a movie. because i wanna watch hairspray and ratatouille and balls of fury and the invasion and chuck and larry! argh!i better watch it soon, because it's going to finish and i won't have time anymore to watch for this sem!
i have chionged finish 'to grow with love' and i must say, amidst all the reviews that said it was a bad drama, i tink it was quite okay! i mean, it isn't the best of storylines but the actors and actresses were aptly cast! and myolie is so cute when she's fat hahahaha! but actually the couple that i liked wasn't myolie and andy together. but it was selena and jack together. i only liked myolie and andy together when he lost his memory. because that was the most innocent love there ever was.
the fact that i can chiong through this drama means that it's watchable. i would definitely recommend it to everyone leh. because it is different from the other dramas. while some dramas i will drag for some time because i find the drama boring. zzz
anyways watching 'ten brothers' after this! i've watched a few episodes already. and it's quite interesting! :) wish me luck!
and wish me luck for school too!
oh, my wei yi posted. but i didn't reply this time. duno what to reply. lol
DEAR EVERYBODY
I AM IN XINJIANG. I FEEL THE INADEQUACY OF MY TYPING IN MANDARIN MEANS THAT I SHOULD TYPE IN CAPS. IT'S LIKE WHEN IN A LOSING ARGUMENT, YOU FIND YOURSELF TALKING LOUDER AND LOUDER.
Today my friend chided me for being an erratic lousy Singaporean, always flitting in and out of my home country. BUT I argued that I was expending my talent overseas. Likewise, I could be blamed for not learning Mandarin as well as I should, but eventually, I would put the responsibility on my education, my friends and the environment which I grew up in. So I apologize, for not apologizing.
hmm, not relevant.
I've been trying to finish The Rule of Four (a fiction book). It isn't the greatest literary work but my short attention span does horrify me. Perhaps, as some might suggest, I am still a child. But I'm 29 YEARS OLD. Trust me, the thought process does alter over time. Hanging on to the tails of youth isn't on my mind at all.
What I might be trying to say, is that, this is the point of my life whereby I love. I might make mistakes here and there, and there might be things I would never ever get down to doing, and some things are worth the extra mile, and some are best left alone. At 29, I have learnt this. And....It took me quite a bit to learn this.
The hard part, is deciding, which is which.
And then suddenly you realise, it's not that hard.
heheheheh
I hope I have confused everyone of you.
yz
oh well. i love her to bits.
men should not accept our destiny,we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
oh yes, thank god. i passed this time's exam and am allowed to continue in the course. so i have made a resolution to myself to work hard this coming semester because it's my last semester. i wouldn't want to have any repeats of any modules at the last stage of my turbulent school life would i?
whew whew. and i got all the grades from A to D this time. muahahha. not that im proud but i was rather surprised at some of the results for my modules. i thot it would be better but it didn't. oh well. work hard aud!
timetable's for this sem is also out. and i have to admit. MM does give one of the best timetables ever. because i only end at 5pm on mondays. the rest of the days are early days. tues and thurs i end at 2pm and 3pm respectively. while weds and fridays i get the normal 12pm release. whoohooo. the best part is: NO MORE GEMs.
really really good. i tink some of the classmates have changed classes. with this class change i seriously hope i will be able to make some friends at least and let me have a respectable attitude towards this school. haha.
my sunburns are recovering [i hope]. i woke up with the shock that i developed a HUGE water bubble on my back. it made me look like a freak man. freaky freaky. i swear, next time i will bring tonnes and tonnes of sunblock to lather on myself. NO MORE SUN BURN. once is enough man. kns.
now watching this channel 8 drama - metamorphosis. the first episode is already quite exciting. somemore the cast all not bad leh. muahaha. it's a CID show, which channel 8 hasn't shown for quite some time since mr tay's CID. muahahaha, however this show dun have mr tay, which would have made it perfect! but im not grumbling. he's filming another show currently, so i'll get to see him real soon!
oh well. off to watch dicey business! may my sun burns DISAPPEAR!
men should not accept our destiny, we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
yay HONOR AND PASSION IS FINALLY OVER ON CHANNEL 8!
hehe it was one of the best dramas i watched this year - partially due to the fact that there is a super uber hunky guy inside there who will seriously make my heart melt =D *no prizes for guessing who that is*
anyway the last episode was exciting. good buildup, and mediacorp left time to tidy up the ends!which is good, cus recent tvb dramas don't really have a knack of tying tings up properly =x to cap it off in a nutshell, there was a bomb strapped to rui en, and pierre and mr tay didn't know where to find her. suddenly pierre thought of the kindergarden and they went there.
true enough, a fight ensured and mr tay's legs were shot! *cries* but it was so courageous of him to fight someone with a gun =D. ix died in the end, and pierre saved rui en. yay! mr tay told my love rival, felicia that he lost the pledge. which is actually a good piece of news for me because that means i'll have a chance with mr tay. haha.
rubbish!lol. i would be in a dream if that ever happened. haha. anyways pierre was with rui en, bryan with dawn, mr tay with felicia, and huang wenyong with hong huifang. nice ending. and of cus the smart 4 uniform that mr tay wears in the wedding ceremony looks so good on him. xD
pictures of mr tay: even though he's wearing a shirt in the 2nd pic, he still looks more handsome than the one who's NOT wearing a shirt.
ACS exam tml. im more or less prepared. didn't really bother memorising the facts hard and cold, but just read through them and understood it. so pray that my memory doesn't fail me tml. haha. and yes, im gonna watch rush hour 3 with allen. lol!
because he is sick and doesn't need to go sch. but it's actually not a sickness la, he seems fine. LOL
and after ACS, it'll be left with OM and im freeeeee!
oh ya, before i forget. pls do watch the 7pm channel 8 show. u know why? because it is a rip off from 2005's drama 'you are the one'!, where it had nnadia chan, jacelyn tay, rui en, christopher lee, terence cao and chew chor meng!the sentences that they speak is exactly the same!
i wonder, is it actually a remake of the drama?or is it just a coincidence?but i've read the sypnosis for it. and the plot is exactly the same!so how now brown cow? sue whoever who created this new drama? cus it seriously cant match up to 'you are the one'
omgomgomg. sue them!
men should not accept our destiny,we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
by right, at this ungodly hour i should be asleep. but since i can't sleep. shall blog!
today was by far the best HONOR AND PASSION episode ever. because it was easily the most emotional episode of all. which girl wouldn't want a guy who can protect the lady? i definitely need one that's for sure! =D
my mr tay is sooooooo freaking handsome. and yes it's the same old 'i like you but u like another person' story, and where the ending is 'all these while i have overlooked the one who was watching over me'. i mean COM'ON aud, aren't you sick of this predictable love story yet? truth is, i am still hopelessly stuck onto love stories like this
especially when the male in question happens to be a tall strapping handsome guy with gentlemanly manners and charm. omg, what would i give to have him look inside my eye? mr tay, YOU'RE MINEEEEEEEEEEE!
ms felicia chin, don't steal away my mr tay! RAWR!
and i have spoilt my own ending yet again. i couldn't control the temptation to watch the last 2 episodes of honor and passion, and booooooooooo! there's quite little of mr tay! but i love the last scene of the show, where he wears a commando smart 4 uniform. wheeeeeee! i am seriously gonna hyperventilate. muahaha.
chionged another 5 episodes of 'heart of greed' and i have to say, lee si kei gives a very powerful performance man. i remember the scene where she came back from the hospital despite the fact that she was sick, and the whole family just stared at her. WOAH!power man. she really has that high-up aura about her. at this rate, i am sure gonna finish watching HOG before the exam finishes. haha.
and raymond lam finally makes an appearance!where he plays an absolutely dashing and passionate lawyer. oh well, i finally like someone who's not more than 10 years older than me. LOL.
2 more exams to go, but i feel as if i am in a holiday mood.
btw, does anyone know any good floral shops in singapore?i need to go ask around for something, especially a certain type of flower. pls tell me if you guys know of any!PRICE IS NOT A PROBLEM, i tink =x
men should not accept our destiny,we should choose it. never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
haven't blogged for almost a week, and i'll bet my frequent visitors will have actually grown a neck long enough to rival the giraffe soon [not that i have many visitors LOL]. anyways the last week was actually spent studying, yes studying.
in case you were wondering, i spend my whole semester trying to catch up and i don't actually listen to lessons. the only time when i really start studying is 2 weeks before the exam period starts.LOL. been studying for mechanics for the past week, and i can safely say that it is freaking difficult to learn mechanics alone. because you have to totally grasp the concept and understand it. and i learnt mechanics by staring at the worked examples man. seriously tiring.
now i have to study for avionics which i didn't attend the lecture sessions at all throughout the whole semester, and it's memorising work!zzzz but it's definitely more relaxed than doing calculation work. =D i have to buck up, and hope that this gets over and done with, because:
yes 933's annual bao chang hui will be featuring my wei yi AHZI!it's been quite a long while since i have mentioned ahzi [hint: look at the recent labels, there hasn't been much AHZI labels] and i feel so bad for dum dai-ing her [that is cantonese for leaving someone aside] to collect dust. however i don't mean it literally when i say she's collecting dust, because this aunty is actually doing the 40th ASEAN themesong called rise! =D
omgomgomg i cant wait for her. after the 24th august at 7.10pm i will be free from everything and i will quan xin quan yi go and support my weiyi!
but zzz, ice milo's going. and i seriously and fervently hope that they do not sing yong qi, because nick destroys it!kns, such a sweet and gentle song and it's being massacred by him. he keeps going flat man. anyways WHY ISN'T GONG GOING AR?
this bao chang hui only got one recognised name. if gong go, mebbe will have more people go. because her fan club is so nice. they actually get to celebrate their birthday with their idol. so not fair man. but seriously only not so hong singers can do that la, cus won't have alot people go also. LOL [plsplspls bee don't kill me, i still like zycyy =x]
but she'll be damn popular soon. because not many new singers nowadays can sing like her. =D
had the first official perc band prac last sat. and i was actually given mallet pieces. but hor, surprisingly i could read the notes okay-ly. don't tink i did that badly, hahaha. but of cus my forte is still in the drums side. but i will make an effort to improve on my mallet skills =D
am watching this drama now: and i totally love raymond lam. but the story is abit too much for me to absorb in the first few episodes already. WHEW!

Episodes:40 Synopsis
It is a story of a renowned sea-products retailer and a big traditional family, in which there are those who manage to endure to the end, those who consider themselves superior to everyone else, those who love and respect their brothers, those who seek every opportunity to fulfill their ambition, those who stay loyal to their beloved, and those who remain grateful for whatever they get..
When hatred is stirred up among the family..the family breaks down..
Family unity has always been a big concern for multi-millionaire Tong Yan-Gai (Ha Yu), his official wife Ling Hau (Lee See Kei) and their adopted son Tong Chi-on (Moses Chan). Gai’s mistress Wong Sau-Kam (Susanna Kwan), on the other hand, is a calculating woman who always wants to secure herself a recognized status. Hau’s sister Ling Lei (Michelle Yim) helps run Gai’s business and has been keeping a big secret for her brother-in-law. Once the secret is out, the Tong family starts to fall apart..
Love and Romance, Gai’s son Chi-yat /Gilbert (Bosco Wong) would like to tie the knot with Cheuk Man-Lai /Jackie (Tavia Yeung) who is already married. Lai is also the main cause of dispute between Yat and On. On gets to know a pair of friends Sheung Zoi-Sum (Linda Chung) and Shui Ming-ha (Yoyo Mung). He falls in love with Sum but Sum is attracted to a young passionate solicitor Ching Leung/ Alfred (Raymond Lam). In the meantime, the born romantic Ha chooses to be a runaway bride just prior to her marriage…
hmmm sounds interesting?
i watch the show because it looks like those type of big budget shows that i like. but having watched the first 7 episodes i feel very overwhelmed cus alot of tings happen at once, it's too much for the opening show. but because of raymond lam, i shall continue to watch the show, even though i know he will die T_T
oh well, good luck for me watching this show!
back to studying!
