I have been busy, or rather, lazy lately to update my blog. Anyway it's New Year's Eve! Contrary to previous years, I will not make any New Year's resolution, since I would have forgotten all about it by March. Hence I will just wish all my family and friends a very Happy New Year! Those working please continue to work hard so that you are able to treat me; those studying please study harder, and let me copy tutorials; and those graduating in mid '07, GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Merry Christmas! HY met my family for the first time on Christmas Eve, over at my sis' new place. Glad that it went well and I think my family warmed up to her. That's good already! And Yvette says she likes her!

Its Christmas! Wishing everyone a very Happy Merry and Fun Filled Christmas!

I've always liked Christmas. It has always been the No. 1 holiday to me. Maybe it's because of the amount of cartoons on TV when I was young. I will be glued to the telly for the whole day! And of course, the cool weather, Chirstmas lights, and the excitement just add to the festive joy. Oh and the Christmas presents!

When I was young, around 8-9 yrs old, I wanted to experience the joy of getting presents from santa. So, I got myself a Christmas stocking, and then got my mum to buy a toy for me so that I can put the toy in the stocking and hung it up so that on Christmas day when I woke up I would have a 'gift from santa', whom I imagined had dropped the present in my stocking while I was asleep! Haha how innocent. I think I got the idea from Mr Bean. Haha.

Wells, I will still hang up a Christmas Stocking outside my room and leave my living room window open. So feel free to break into my house and drop me a present k? Don't disappoint me!

My dad was discharged from the hospital yesterday afternoon. He's so much better already, able to walk and do things by himself, unlike last week before he got admitted he was so weak. My sis bought him a walking cane, which looks like those canes in the movies whereby u can press a button somewhere and the cane will turn into a machine gun or a sword. Haha.

Christmas is coming!

My dad got admitted into hospital this morning. He was very weak and his Arthritis was making his limbs painful and immovable. My family doc saw him and suggested to ward him in hospital, and he gave a referral letter that cost $130! Then I called for an ambulance to bring him to TTSH. He's still feeling weak but he's better and more cheerful already. He still has to be warded for a few more days for them to run some test. Luckily I took the day off from work today, if not I dunno how my mum is able to cope with my dad and 3 little kids @ home. Don't worry everything's fine already. =)

You are The Devil

Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession

The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.

Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

Got this in my mailbox and I found it damn funny! haha

This is hilarious!
1- Go to <http://www.google.com/> www.Google.com
2- Type in "Failure"
3- Look at what comes up as first listing
4- Tell other people before the people at Google fix it.

(It is unfortunately possible for a total failure to >>>reach the>>> >top).

Wow.. It's been some time since I've last logged into Blogger. Blogger got bought over by Google?? I've switched to the Google-Blogger beta thing anyway..

My legs itch for soccer, my hands itch for mahjong, my fingers itch for guitar, my eyes itch to close, my back is itchy.. 'Life's an itch, and then you scratch.' How true! I'm going to scratch my legs for soccer tomorrow!

Anyway, I realised that typing in short forms are not healthy. For example, I'm used to typing 'tmr' for tomorrow so often that I got took a second to think. I almost typed 'tomolo' instead!

Final report for my attachment has already handed in! A huge load was lifted off my shoulders!! Yeah! And less than 3 weeks to the end of my Industrial Attachment!!

Less than 4 weeks to the end of my Industrial Attachment! It's time for a well deserved break after that. Been busy with my final report nowadays and I;ve regretted not updating my log book regularly. Now I've to write 7 log book entries! I've finished 2 already, 5 more to go before I show my tutor this thurs. How encouraging.

I've got 2 hours and counting!

I was on my way home from my Sunday soccer game and before I reach my house I saw police cars by the road side. Apparently a Trans-Island bus went up a kerb and hit a pillar of a flyover. The front of the bus, especially the driver seat side, was badly smashed. No bloodstains on the floor as far as I can 'beo-ed' though, so I guessed the bus driver should be alright.

Chua's Law of Laws

Law 1: Reading can make one bankrupt.

Reason:
Reading is knowledge.
Knowledge is power.
Power corrupts.
Corruption is a crime.
Crime dont pay.
No pay no money.
No money equals bankruptcy.

Therefore, I hereby proved Law 1. Reading can make one bankrupt.

Wow its been almost 2 weeks since I've last blogged. Nothing much happened though. Life has been so mundane that... that... er.. I cant remember what I did each day but it's something like this: Report to work, coffee break, act busy, lunch, act busy, coffee break, act busy, knock off. Sounds like fun.

It's mid Oct! Those on IA better finish up the bloody log book! Those still attending lectures please start studying! You don't know how much I've missed school, skipping lectures, tutorials, and mugging for exmas! Haha. I went back to NTU last thurs and thought I can crash a lecture in my school but it turned out that it was some e-learning week where those only online lectures and tutorials so students do not have to come to school. Thus I crashed a EEE lecture instead. Feels good to be in a Lecture Theatre! And after attending that lecture I am glad that I'm a Mechanical.

Watched World Trade Centre and its an 'okay' movie. Cant really descibe my thoughts on the show, because its not touching yet its emotional, its not a thriler yet its exciting (initially). The show did well to avoid political topics and just focus on the minds and emotions of the 2 trapped men. Since they were trapped they couldnt really act much, and you will be just looking at their eyes: scared, in pain, lost, yet with a faint glimmer of hope that someone will find them someday, somehow.

Why Osama is still at large??

Things I hate most on a bus ride

1) Drivers who didn't realised that they are in the year 2006 and are driving air-con buses. 'Eh uncle! Switch on the air-con lah!!'

2) Noisy kids who play and scream around on the bus. Infants are forgivable. I am thus thankful for my MP3 player, and my ear phone that blocks out extenal noises. But I can still hear them in between tracks!

3) Smell of food after a long day at work and hungry. It just makes my stomach growl. GGRRRROOOWWWWLLLL....

4) Passengers who want to stand up and walk to the exit when there's still a long way to go before the bus reach the stop. What's the big deal you may ask. It's not alright when they are sitting so damn near the exit and the bus is bloody crowded!!! 'Can relac or not?!? I will let you pass wan!!'

5) People who fart on a bus. Esp the 'got sound & got smell kind'. You can smell what they had for breakfast and lunch.

6) The person sitting beside you fell asleep and his head somehow found a place on my shoulder. Damn. No girl has fallen asleep and rest her head on my shoulder before.

7) Drivers who think that they are Formula One racers. I don't mind that when I'm in a rush. But they still want to race in a crowded bus? Beating red lights, drifting at bends doing a Jay Chou, and jamming the brakes like stamping a cockroach to death. I know the bus is a Merc but uncle I'm old already cannot take the thrill lah.

8) Cockroaches. The small babies who think that they are cute and like to appear out of nowhere to play peek-a-boo. I can play peek-a-boo with you but just don't crawl into my bag thank you very much.

9) Bells that don't work. You have to shout 'Ding dong!' to alert the driver that you want to alight next.

10) Contrary to the 1st point, drivers who think that they are cool and set the temperature to -180 degree Fahrenheit. A certain bus no 16 can attest to that. 'Ah chooo!'

11) People who refused to get down because their EZ Link cards have a problem and they could not tap to exit. They will just stand at the exit, despite stares from everyone on the bus, and frantically tapping the card reader hoping that it will beep and show the yellow light and the right fare deducted. But no, it's not going to work cos your big butt has sat on the card and crushed it. So please accept that the card is spoilt. JUST GET DOWN AND DON'T WASTE OUR TIME WATCHING YOU TAP THE BLOODY THING! ARGH!

"At Liverpool from the very start I'd planned
To build a bastion of invincibility."
I believe that "I was made for Liverpool, and
Liverpool was made for me."

All of a sudden I like the Pirates of the Carribean theme song! I have been listening to it for the past hour already!

Meet the new addition to my family..



Her name is Goh Shu Hui.



She weighed a whooping 4.13 pounds when she was born.



She has a nice hairstyle! And her eye brows are quite long!



It's time to sleep!

Damn it. I am sick again. How many times this year I've been sick? Argh. Diarrhea for the whole day, headache, and I am feeling cold all the time. I get shivers and goosebumps for the whole day already. Damn MCs are expensive these days. I dun wan to be sick!

Random thoughts here..

For months I've been procastinating to clear and revamp my 'work place' desk at home. Finally I've started something already. At least the CRT monitor is gone, but its still quite messy. Now to get my ass to IKEA to get some boards and after some hammering I hope it'll turn out nicely.

I need to change a mobile phone plan, Singtel Classic plan do not have free incoming calls, the Singtel iPlus student plan will suit me very very well. And besides, Nokia 6280 is selling at $99 for students! Damn. I was aiming for N70. But since N70 is quite an old model and 6280 has the functions that I wanted and its 99 bucks, I think I will get that. Compare phones here. Who cares if there are many ppl using that phone? Since I'll save $$ if I buy 6280, I think I will be able to spend more to revamp my work area at home already!

Liverpool website has been counting down to the top 100 players ever to play for the first team since June, and I've been religiously downloading every single video clip of the players. So far it's at 14th place and it's Micheal Owen. I wonder who'll get first. Dalglish, Keegan, Rush , Barnes, Fowler, Gerrard, Chua Wei Guan are all possible candidates. Cant wait to see who'll top the list!!

I hope I can get out of Republic Poly by mid Oct. Wake me up when September ends.
