went out to the IT show again, this time with jol. meeting leon james and bob to check out some other good steals of the show.. bought the 250GB 2.5" hdd for geokleong thats all.

actually is jol who wanted to go suntec, to check out the burberry and body shop fair... ha... well... went to the show, looked around, find all our friends all over the place at the IT fair, and eventually went for dinner over at food court.. only me and bob ate the food court stuff. the rest had subway for dinner.. lol.. james' subway meal costs $17. wth ?...



us 4..


picture of us.. haha..


another group picture..

more candid and random shots can be found on facebook. apparently jol logged into my account and uploaded all the photos taken. and tagged everyone that's supposed to be inside already.. -.- quite impressive.

finally booked out! end of live range + field camp week! kinda got injured during 1st day of field camp already. dots... carried on with 2nd day, tried my best and tahan, but couldn't take it, my back was killing me. went to see MO that night, and 2lt joan excused me from the remaining field camp.. my back's injured =/ oh wells, wad a draggy week to pass.. gladly after this week, there's nothing much left for bmt already. what's remaining is the stupid discovery centre visit for the NE (National Education) lessons on 3rd of March, and the School Games Day happening on the 5th of March. In between are the Recruits' Evening happening on both nights of 4th and 5th of March. After which 10th of March will be my confirmed POC date. As I'm PES C, i won't have a POP. Doesnt have much difference to me, after all NS is only something i want to clear asap. 1 Year 10 Months left after POC!... Damn long way to go. Alrite book out lo!~

went to wheelock borders today to shop for books with jol, uncle zohn and his daughter abigail! finally found "The Brothers Karamazov", bought the book at first instinct! =D weee. happy. After which went to eat dinner at food republic, which we spent $38 for 4 persons for dinner there. wth lor, food republic stuff are freakin ex. and the stuff are "best" in the world, ever. period, never eat from there anymore. SAF Cookhouse tastes better.

after which, was supposed to meet up with jol' frens, jiamin and the girls from netball i presume. And chill at balcony. (wth not again?!) but eventually it was called off, probably coz it was kinda late or something. No idea wad happened, but heck, didn't meet them, so jol suggested watching movie, but when we reached cine, there wasn't any slots, wanted to move on to lido, but as we were walking there, it started pouring rain.. and eventually we were stuck at paragon.. dang... chilled inside there, listened to the live band over there, kinda cool, but the vocalist kinda sucked. oh well, i couldn't sing any better either. haha, hecks. took some photos.. appreciate them! i seldom upload photos/blog lately. alrites though i know i look like a fashion disaster! but, hecks, since i don't look really good even if i dress up myself. whateva le lar ~ hahas.


me and abigail outside the toilet. dang...


us 3 in the middle of the wheelock abstract statue tingy.


helping uncle zohn take photo with abigail, jol sneaked this one behind me.


lols, classic expression. looks kinda retard.


uncle zohn and me, lol, we like taking stupid photos.


this is worst. haha! the trio "musketeers".

mummy came to pick us up shortly, stranded at paragon with heavy rain pouring down.. uncle zohn is staying with us for this 2 days, just back from japan wif granny. he's flying back to Shanghai via transit at japan later at 8am! busy man.. he's based permanently at Shanghai, comes back once or twice per year or something only. heh..


taken in the car, abigail likes to touch my head -.-


last photo of us 3. =D

alrite, time for random ramblings...

ha... first up, its A. lol.. its been freakin long since we last chat liao right, when was the last time we even met up ? rofl.. okies thanks for remembering me lei. and u suddenly wanted the kitty pic... lucky i manage to find the photo! lol... i dun care liao, i upload here liao. lol since it doesn't even haf ur face ! eh this is like taken on 160808.





ha, meet out soon okies. (: i'm bout to POC le!

nxt up is C. oh gosh, u landed urself in quite a predicament.. i didn't haf a good feeling bout that guy all along... and now shit really happened... gosh, can't console u enough, coz i'm not u.. but i'm able to feel how u feel... damn jia lat.. i feel hurt for u also, coz this guy is so not worthed it.. u gave in so much, yet he's juz like a jerk, an asshole... like i told u before, this guy isn't able to give u a regular relationship like u've tot he would... he would juz hurt u over and over again... enough of chances, he's seems to taken charge of ur life instead... why let it carry on being like this... the only one thing i can't tolerate is that, he calls u his gf, but when u msg him, he can tell u not to sms him as he's with his other gf.. wth is this man... this isn't part of a regular relationship... gosh... can't believe its been quite long somemore... please... get a hold of urself, and realise that this guy isn't all u need... u need to pull through this, and grow stronger. and i believe u could do so. so don't forget what u've promised me, and get out of this, and grow out to be a stronger, better, girl. this guy isnt serious about u at all.. u even know about it... the cookies, the pig, etc, all just give it to him, and forget bout it all... forget about the lies that he told u before, and just leave him... forget bout all the threatenings, and all the things that were so negative... he's just not worthed it!

lastly, its You. you know its you. i don't know whats going on now between us. its been stagnant. we're just hanging there like not advancing. so much time has passed.. we didn't get the time to meet each other, no time to talk often even.. i'm in army, while u juz finished ur exams... during army, i could only sms/call at nights.. specifically during the 9.30pm-10.30pm period, whereby i had admin time.. else, i couldn't really talk to u.. i did try my best to contact u whenever i had free time... but still, time factor really affected alot...but still, i don't know what u're feeling... its been like... so long ler... i know u've got problems of ur own also.. u can't go out and all etc, its okay, i understand and i know de... but.. i juz hoped something better would happen soon... i'll finally get my 2 weeks break after my POC on 10th of March. i juz hoped, everything would be better for us... what's gonna happen between us?.... i'm still wondering...

gonna book in later at 8.15pm tonite, will be leaving home by 6pm le i guess... if anyone still looking for me, could do so before i book in alrites... alrites, XOXO good nites everyone.. its already 4.24am! omg..

no i was WRONG. DON'T you forget about me okays. Please remember me dearly. i'll be out 2 weeks later, this will be my last blog post before i go in ler. good bye to all.. good bye to you...

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all chinese out there! =D Firstly, a BIG sorry to Nana for sending that sms wrongly to you. HAHA busy with new year greetings. =x

alrites, went quite a couple of places to 拜年. Quite a busy day, kinda dumb that i woke up at 12pm liddat today?! omg, lol coz i kinda 守岁 till like 6.50am this morning. well, its the “一夜连双岁，五更分二年” night of the year afterall, its stated that 年长者守岁为“辞旧岁”，有珍爱光阴的意思；年轻人守岁，是为延长父母寿命. so i must 守 till as late as i can! because i love my mummy and ahma too. they're the only ones who will not leave me alone if the whole world does. (:

okies, 拜年 is pretty straightforward, no need to elaborate how i did that. lol, collect as many 红包 can ler. hmm, went to teck whye too to 1st Aunt's place. as py's place is just a block away, so went over to 拜年 to uncle and auntie too. 顺便 pass her all those stuff she left at my place. its the first time i'm at their place since they moved. haha, can see that they're still as happy as ever, their family seem to have a happy life (: py's bro and wife seems to have moved back to stay with the family too. hees, bustling now. used to go over to her place quite often last time when it was still at jurong..

hees, after which, yh came over to meet me too, coz he lives at that area now. LOL?! and its freakin near too, juz a street away, so met under the void deck of my 1st Aunt's block, went over to mac, with my sis and jelyn tagging along. we all know yh very well. haha ! den ate alittle stuff, and its getting late already.. met my mummy and ahma back at the void deck, and yh 拜年 with my ahma and mummy. they quite 疼 yh coz he always comes over to my place. hees..

after which is HOME. rest needed. 2 days later is NS ler. heh, brings new surprises eh.. but i can't enter without completing anything undone, or i'll have no chance to do anymore... or maybe......... i can ?...

anyways! some pics taken recently!


this is my all time favourite granny of the lifetime. where else could u find one granny who's so sporty, cute, adorable, cuddly, caring, good chef, soft spoken, kind, pretty, and loving! i totally adore her. she's aging le, and yet i won't be able to pei her as much as i am now =/ i'll miss her alot when i'm in NS.


this is my mummy, been with me since i'm bornt. though we might quarrel alittle at times, but still, i love her and i cherish her. i promise i'll do my best in whatever i'm doing to not let her down. she's always been there for me when i needed someone. and she's really a fantastic lady, a hardworking one, and a clever one too. i'll definitely miss her dearly when i'm away.


and nonetheless, its my sister. she's always been there to help when i needed, and she's a clever girl too. even though we quarrel at times, but we're still counted as the ideal bro-sis partner. seen as almost the most perfect set of bro and sis combination, and having organised multiple successful events, such as BBQs at my place, the massive christmas party at my place in 2005, birthday parties, poolside parties, even my most latest birthday party. we would confide in almost everything. thanks for everything u've done for/with me. i'll definitely miss u all when i'm in there.


and lastly the picture with my hair still on, the fateful day i went to get shaved.

alrite, these are all taken before i shaved my head.. had to keep some photos with my hair on!


its sue-ann again here, always looking for me and running around crazily. ha. i think sue-ann looks like one of my kids from fairfield, yeesin. rofl, super identical.


and of course, not forgetting, py! this girl here, can be said as my bestie, since secondary school. though we don't always meet out, but at least we still remember each other well. (lol?), err. recently seems to haf some problems too, ha relationships are so *******. whatever it is, i think communication's most important! haha, this is taken when we met up juz now.

okies, i think those photos posted seems random. oh wells, nevertheless, i'm going NS on wednesday! 28th January! its damn soon, i'm gonna be attached to the army for 2 whole years... shrugs at the thought of it. i'm not hating the life inside, juz that i'll be missing my life outside. nuff said, time to sleep.

its super silly and dumb of me i know! but i just couldn't help it! ~ i thought.. i still thought.... but how come its liddat.. urgh ~ i'm not thinking anymore ler! or having false wishes and pursue dreams that'll never come true. haha, dumb right, GO SLEEP LA.

FRIENDS AND GIRLFRIEND IS SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE OKAY! THEY'RE DIFFERENT OKAY. FRIENDS WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO REPLACE A GIRLFRIEND'S POSITION AND IMPORTANCE IN MY HEART.

not really possible to get married at 22. no career, no money (by myself) to support you, and/or a family (with kids). can't be me. not meant. not meant. damn sad. can't do anything... low.. low..

mayb i should try to stop falling for someone. its not wise to be with anyone during this pre-ns period, my mummy says. the girl might just run off with other guys when i'm inside. =/ but anyways, no worries, i know you won't like me too. its just me, i'll try to bring myself out of it.

"this is belated post, supposed to be posted on 14th but somehow ended in blogger draft."

i think. it was the last day of my 7 day 1 for 1 exchange for my newly bought asus dvd burner... freddie took back my box the other day and i had to meet him today at simlim to retrieve the box with the warranty and reciept in it to get an exchange. the dvd burner is not working. ;(

went bugis to meet freddie, but before i met him, guess who i met.



yes, its misty. lol, so coincidental. alrite, mayb not. haha. she was shopping for new year stuff wif her mummy. and she juz went for full face threading. muahahah, means, no makeup! lols, just nice we were at the same area.

alrites, after that went to exchange the dvd burner and walked around simlim with freddie for awhile.. before slacking at bugis street, and walking around aimlessly. then deciding to go home.. ate a coconut at the bugis street entrance. it costed me S$2.50, total rip off, (and the coconut didn't taste good either). imagine i ate the same sized thing for only THB$20, which amounts to only S$0.85, (SGD$1 = THB$23.55). dang... we're in SG, we're in SG, we're in SG, we're in SG.....

alrite, went home by BUS at the end of the day, super peak hour, and the bus was freakin crowded. i became a leaning pole for the whole trip. with 2 girls sandwiching me from the back and front in an extremely awkward position.. but can't do anything bout it, had to struggle with sms-ing too. duh.. public transport. no choice...

end.

a few more photos of the interiors.


closer view of kitchen.


somehow i like the stairs


the look of the stairs


the nice view from the roof.

though moving in soon. but wun be staying there for long. it'll be like my second home rather that first, first being the NS camp. omfg. that sucks. lol.. oh well, 2 years will fly by really fast won't it?. enlisting 28th January 2009. which means, 16 days more to go....

in less than 9hrs time, i'll be flying to thai wif my frens for 5 whole days.. u all better miss me. heh, u know its u. (:

NATO SUSHI.

END.

when asked a question by the girl, haf i changed, or has the feeling changed. i wonder... i ponder... and can't seem to reply with a self satisfactory answer... mayb its been too long... mayb we were both not too initiative... mayb... its just not meant to be... i feel emo at night, especially rainy nights, and i need accompaniment too, i'm a person... sometimes.. i just wished that things won't be so hard. then everything will juz be simple and sweet.. ~ just what's wrong between us?!

once recently, A asked me the same question too, but no i didn't change! its just that i dunoe also.... urgh....

ANYWAYS! i MIGHT be shifting house on 15-DEC-2008 already, or later, but should be somehow soon. works there have already completed. so its BYE Palladium, and welcome to the next phase of living: LOR STANGEE.. SOON.... hopefully before i NS, if not, my mummy they all will have to shift things themselves liao.. lol ...

and, fuck it man, i totally feel wtf, these days really is fucked. the biggest MISTAKE this year. people around me are like. ?! what is this man. i still tot.. i still tot... but NO. there's no point man.... OMG i feel damn STUPiD now! joke it has to be, can't believe it.

but still, yes i'm still smiling, simply smiling behind a facade. out.

alrites, thats all for this post. bleah.. off.. =)

went for my medical appt at JMC 9.30am. met jol and yh + his ns frens over at kushinbo suntec. they ate but we didn't, coz didn't really felt like eating buffet... at first wanted to go school for basketball with the gang, and watch james perform at the sports day event.. but eventually we didn't, and the sports day was sort of cancelled as it was raining heavily..


at kushinbo..


too bored..

change of plans. me yh and jol left to return to my place shortly after kushinbo, damn shag already.. coz previous nite didn't really slept much.. bobo came meet us at my place at around late noon, had lunch over at parkway banquet.. walked around parkway alittle...

while waiting... random.


then went over to darren's for pool as usual.. ceed came join us shortly after..


bobo's turn.


time for jol to play..


bobo bridging for jol.. lol.

alrite, then there was this pro called andy over at darren's. he's a regular player around there, i've seen him a couple of times.. he's a Team Singapore Pool Coach.. i think he must be damn bored playing alone, so he asked me to join him for a game... -.- first round lost by just the final 8 ball, 2nd round lost by like 3 balls, 3rd round and 4 round lost by quite a margin.. never win anything at all.. haha i think it's the experience that matters... it was near impossible to beat him, as his placing and accuracy was almost 100%... guess my first game wif him was the best i've played so far.. ha...

next, we all went back to my place, intended to play basketball at marine parade CC, but eventually we didnt... too shag already.. watched bobo play cabal at my place, till both me and yh fell asleep... after which they left and leaving me to rest. heh, yawns... heard that bobo went to ceed's place to dota+cabal after leaving my place... power.. ha... shag. yawns...

Met her to ICA to take passport photo, plus submit. previous one was rejected due to a covered eyebrow -.- they sure are particular about these sort of stuff. as usual, we were rather late.. lol... i cab-ed down again lo... raining somemore.... after queueing and waiting, photos taken, finally could submit and wait for passport to be ready. it was to be collected 1hr later at 5.10pm...


randomness.

however, after lunch over at nearby coffee shop, we returned back to ICA at around 4.55pm.. and the passport is ready for collection! cool~

hmm, after which go home lo! lol, no la... off she went to give tuition and off i went back to parkway to meet jol. it was raining heavily =/ oh wells... went around to search for a pair of suitable covered shoes for her as she needed for work.. she liked the cotton on pair that was on sale, but i didn't thought it suited her... oh well... mummy came meet us at parkway shortly, so hanged around awhile... shopped..

jol passed me this to try, with a pair of pants -.-


looks funny right! ... diao...

ya, after which jol bought that pair of cotton on shoe... den returned home for dinner.. yawns.. tml medical at JSC 9.30am, followed by watching james run for sports day at 2.30pm, and basketball session at school at 3.30pm, collection of contact lens at 7pm. dang......

swam for like 20 laps (meaning 40 times across the pool) today. first 10 laps, normal breathing normal strokes. last 10 laps, one breath for half lap (meaning 1 times across the pool), and kept up with this stamina for 20 times. it was pouring rain!...... gotta prepare for NS. gotta keep fit.. must... train....

supposed to meet the bff at parkway at like 1PM plus, for her passport size photo taking before proceeding to ICA building to apply for a new passport! its her first time going overseas! and we're going THAILAND on her virgin trip for a mass shopping spree! but... without a valid passport, its impossible to make a booking for air tix! tsk. and she's so late luh! eventually she reached at 3.45pm...... wth. ha, but still managed to get the passport sized photo taken in 5mins (wow?). the efficiency of parkway digital photo taking shop simply owns. so off we went to the ICA building...


taken while on the cab there. it was already ike 4.10pm when we board on the cab, the ICA counters close at 4.30pm! thats why no choice but to cab there le ... :S

alrite, upon reaching, we just got a form from the counters to fill in, and paid for the application cost by nets. o.O it was self service, meaning, we had to swipe the card at the machine, and ownself enter the price, and all o.O first time doing such a thing, so it was kinda... awkward. -.- kamgong. rofl... after it was all done, dropped it into the bin, and it was all done? it didn't even take more than 10mins! but must wait 7 days for processing.. hahas. yea we finally going out of SINGAPORE this year end. ha.. tsk... alrites, then, we're really hungry liao.....


the COLORS...


walked pass this really nice looking playground, its really colorful! life should be like this! full of colours! heh, of course, stopped by to take some shots with the beautiful background =D

alrite, den walked over to the nearby coffee shop to eat some bar chor mee. the other time i was brought there by i forgot who... and it was delicious!! lols... after which had some interesting chats again, and left le! she's gonna go give tuition, and i'm going right home sweet home. ha... yawns. another day pass.

i'm starting work soon! i guess. ha... before i turn in, suddenly had the urge to leave down some messages, no matter the persons related to it read them or not... to whom it applies:

to k: "tsk, i don't see a way "no longer love love" can still bind u in a happy relationship lo, mayb u should think again.. u're gonna grow up, and u deserve a happy and healthy life de alrites... silly girl.."

to a: "something's really wrong between us, but i dunoe wads it. something seems to haf happened... i can feel it, but can't really explain it. weird...."

to j: "its time for a change!".

to h: "mayb its true that certain things can't be avoided. but, can avoid de, hai shi avoid ba! hahas.."

good nite all my lovely girls and boys...

went for my medical appointment at JMC beside Jurong Point. had to do an x-ray of my back and feet. wore this robe kinda tingy, and waited for my turn...



err, but the room that i'm posing with is not the room where i'm going to do my x-ray. you can read that this room is actually "mammography". alrites, i'm kinda bored. so yea.... after finishing the all the medical stuff, went for lunch wif mummy and her BF, a.k.a uncle eric. after which, met jol at vivocity... she went there for some photo taking of something... went to the arcade to waste some time...





jol playing the drum game. dunoe wad name though, didn't really remember... i played a few rounds of max tune, and after which we decided to take a walk around vivo awhile, find some food to eat... after much recki-ing around vivo, we decided to go SENTOSA omg. lol in my condition? haha! okies, since i had islander pass, i didn't really mind though.. so off we went.. and first place we though of going? Cafe Del Mar -.-



so off we went to Cafe Del Mar, and got a seat, took some silly photos too. we ordered a lychee martini and a jagerbomb. heh, crazy, its afternoon 4pm and we're drinking. -.-


random photo of the very messy table.


must be half drunk liao. rofl....


another pic of us after drinking, abit red liao. great blood circulation... haha..


looks like some dumb tourist taking photo with the merlion. lmao......

after which, we actually had wanted to go meet ceed at bugis de.. but end up, we decided that we've got nothing to do also.. so jiu go home le.. oh yea! packed delicious Chong Pang Nasi Lemak from the food court at vivocity! yum yum. hees, go home and eat dinner lo !!

The Question: "Explain what is a lac operon and how it controls the regulation of gene expression in response to changing concentrations of lactose and glucose in a growth medium."

The Answer: "Lac operon is a cluster of genes that controls the regulation of gene expression in response to different concentrations of lactose and glucose in a growth medium. Negative gene regulation is activated in the presence of repressors, which determines whether transcription activity is being carried out, while positive gene regulation is activated in the presence of inhibitors, which determines the rate of transcription.

Structural genes include lac Z, which encodes beta-galactosidase whose function is to convert disaccharides lactose to monosaccharides glucose and galactose. The second gene is lac Y, specifying the primary protein permease, whose function is to facilitate the entry of lactose into the cell. Lac A, which codes for transacetylase, has a function believed to be the removal of toxic by-products of lactose digestion from the cell. The structural genes are closely linked in the order Z-Y-A and are transcribed as a single unit, resulting in polycistronic mRNA.

When lactose is absent, lac I codes for an allosteric repressor protein which binds to the operator and represses RNA polymerase action. the lac repressor is said to be in its active configuration as the binding inhibits transcription.

When lactose is present, however, beta-galactosidase converts lactose to allolactose, an inducer which binds to the allosteric repressor protein and inactivates the repressor. Even though the lac operon is uninduced, low levels of beta-galactosidase is still being produced, a.k.a basal levels of expression. As the allolactose binds to the repressor, it alters the conformation of the repressor, nullifying its ability to bind to the operator. RNA polymerase gains access to the promoter region and produces a single polycistronic mRNA for the enzymes of the lactose pathway.

when lactose is present, glucose scarce, cyclic AMP (cAMP) accumulates and binds to a regulatory protein cAMP receptor protein (CRP), an activator of transcription. The protein assumes its active shape and binds upstream to the lac repressor. This facilitates binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter and hence transcription is initiated.

When lactose is present, glucose present, cAMP concentration falls and CRP disengages from the operator where it was bound to. Transcription activity is inhibited as RNA polymerase can no longer bind to the promoter region.

Hence, the lac operon can be under dual control, negative gene regulation and positive gene regulation respectively."

The above is an answer to the Biology question posted. Jol is having BIO exam tomorrow!

Hanged around Parkway for awhile, hees.

OKAYS! I've changed blogskin. muahahaha, now's a much simpler blogskin ler. =D I didn't change anything to the blog, just a few edits, so the credits will all remain now. Kudos to the blog designer came up with such a simple blogskin that I fancy. xD

I'm just home not long, bathed and preparing to sleep. LOL its 8.48am -.- Alrites, i'm juz back from St. James PowerStation from the NUS event, FLUX. Apparently its a "Gala de Estrella", or you rather, NUS Science Pageant 2008. So the norm, 10 participants, 5 guys, and 5 girls.. So basically its a pageant. lol, pardon the repeatition, falling asleep le.

So yea, met CJ 8pm at Vivo, went over to PowerStation and waited for the rest to come. Went in and got some good seats, so the pageant starts. Nothing much about the pageant to talk about though. Hees, though the emcees were really good. =D But well, it was clubbing for THE NITE! muahahah, lets see, a good o 8 months since i last clubbed? or was it even longer.. I can't even recall for goodness sake! Well, go there once in a while to de stress seems to be a good idea anyways. Since I've got my Internship over and done with, so I'm still considered quite free to slack ba.

Overall the music was.. Kinda lousy. Partially coz the DJ seems to be quite old, the music were old, those old music... (Move Bitch, Hips Don't Lie, Wateva, Lean Back, etc) wth, reminds of 1 and a half year ago when I first entered clubs? Can say SUPER Retro lor.. Well, those were the familiar songs that got us high though.. Lol, the newer club hits seem to all come from Sean Paul, Daddy Yankee, Fat Man Scoop, all the usual shouting, raps, lots of words, nothing much to dance about. Needless to say, the DJ didn't even spun a single deck. All he did was listen to head phone awhile, and went out of the DJ booth, and returned to check on the playlist, and went out again. I think, he set a standard playlist to keep on repeating. (As some songs were heard more than once, appears that he must have shuffled the songs after all were played at least once.) Okays, enough about the groaning about that DJ, whom I don't even know the name of. Andrew Chow is WAAAAAY better over at Phuture. Mayb St James can engage our good O Chalk? Who's at I dunoe where advancing his DJ techniques. Okays back to the club. lol. BORING YOU WITH THIS POST. Read on dude/or girl.

Alrites, clubbing clubbing. What else, dancing? I danced like a noob throughout though, thats wad I normally do.. Oh, forgot to introduce the people that were there. There were Bobo and his friends, Daniel, ChongJun, Weekwang (wtf? can buy 4D today liao) and lastly, yours truly. Took one Tequila shot first thing. Gotta get used to the place. Ordered a JUG of Long Island to share with Daniel ChongJun and Kwang. Well, there's not alot of people, but managed to get a small gathering though. Chongjun met a friend over there, I think is called Joycelyn or something.. Daniel met his elder brother there, not pre-arranged, even cooler. Wee Kwang also saw his friend there. Bobo, needless to say, his friends were from NUS. As for me, perhaps a small friend ba, met Iris over there, she was a showgirl previous from Sony Cameras. So yea, thats not important. Dance dance, 2 girls came over to chit chat, and ask about CJ's friend, Joycelyn. Coz apparently some i-dunoe-wad problems hit her, and she was furious on the dance floor. Should be something regarding her ex-bf or wad de.. Not very close to her. So those 2 girls talk talk, and made friends with us, Daniel took one of their numbers, and I didn't take any. Getting numbers from strangers at club isn't my forte you see. lol, I very guai wan. HA! Saw CJ's friends, mushroom head and mohawk there too. They're really super active guys okay. At once, see them grinding some girl here, another moment, they're getting numbers from another girl over there. lol, and mushroom head got a nice frag too, she was hugging and lying on him on the dance floor for a whole 20 odd mins ba i reckon. Never really observed the timing. eh dun get wrong idea, i'm not jealous. coz I didn't really fancy the girl. Though she was dancing in the middle of me and bobo for quite some time. We didn't really wana hit on her. Daniel came and fend me from her and took over. lol. think she's lonely... Dancing alone for very long le... so mushroom head came over, and did what he's best at. He got a drink treat from the girl, and that ended le. HA! Slacked at Harbourfront MAC with Daniel and Kwang till daybreak to take public transport. CJ and Bobo took CAB home at 4am and 4.20am respectively. NO CHOICE, NEVER DRIVE. drank abit alcohol also ma. ha... alrites, so that's it, nothing much, crowd's not really good, never saw any friends there also, mayb coz too long never club, never make enough frens also. Those people all I dunoe who de.. dots... Mayb nxt time must jio more people to club. Hees. =D

SHAG, type to much, so lengthy. Be GLAD guys, i seldom blog. But now i will. BLA.

Gotta sleep liao. GOOD NITE/MORNING to whomever is awake or sleeping at this time =D

seeing so many people's blog oso haf this one.. so i tried a few times and got my best score. finally reach 99, the 100th mark is very hard sia.. even bobo oso reach 98, i feel very stress.. probably took long never type reports and do paperwork liao.. i've been doing more technical stuff in my company ma... ha... oh well. work's been taking alot of time off me. got to know a couple of nice people around in my company, and of course those not so nice as well. but hecks, who cares, afterall i'm just here for another 71 days or so. heh. optimistic. -.- long time since i gathered with my frens, have a feeling of organising a BBQ sometime this few weeks. will confirm again.

Will be revamping my room in this weekend, so stay tuned for the new outlook of my room. heh =D

Thanks to those who still view my blog if u're reading this. =D don't forget to tag too.

OKAYS people. i'm back from camps! been a busy week. and it was all worthed it.

FIRST EVENT
Date: 3TH March 2008 - 5TH March 2008
School: Fairfield Methodist Primary School
Event: Annual P5 Adventure Camp
Location: Pasir Ris Park

alrite with that said, the camp kicked off with a BANG. i met the kids the first time. wee... was very enthu actually.. wana see what challenges awaits me from this bunch of people. haha... sure to haf notti kids, and all de. first day, spent some time organising abit, getting to know them alittle better. Hope they like me.. haha! otherwise being their instructor will be hard work...

being a section leader has made me learn many things. not only leadership skills, but also emergency responses. like what if this happens, what to do, and things like that.

There were 343 students attending this 3 days 2 night camp. seperated into 16 groups. and the 16 groups were further seperated into 4 sections. 1 section leader (ME)+ 3 instructors for 1 section.

so for my section, SECTION A, i had total 85 kids under me. personally taking charge of group 1. HUAN DA was in charged of group 2, PEIWEN was taking care of group 3, and MELISSA was taking group 4.

what happened in the camp, i tink no nid to say too much oso.. of coz it was fun =DD i hope the kids enjoyed themselves too.. hahahaha... well... i oso dunoe how much i can talk about anything. but still. i wana thank these students. who were also referred to darlings whenever i needed them . heh.

DArLINGS:
Nurul Jannah (GROUP 1) - for being so helpful in the first day activities

Theodora (GROUP 1) - also for being very nice and helpful =DD

amos (GROUP 1) - he's a monitor of his class, so i relied on him for organising the people for me.. haha !

abigail (GROUP 1) - a poor little girl who had a phobia of anyone called DERRICK. coz apparently they had a teacher with the same name. and that teacher scolded her so badly that she's so afraid of him. but still! keep sticking around with me during 2nd day onwards also. haha ! good girl luh. haha ..

amelia (GROUP 2) - one of my most problematic kids. but still, after spending some time, on the 2nd day, i made her follow me wherever i go during canoe session. otherwise she'll anyhow run here and there again. and go around disturbing other kids and other kids will start scolding her again.. dunoe why i quite protective of her, i'll ask other kids to keep quiet and all when they scolding her de... partly coz amelia is autistic and all.. low attention span ba..

zenna (GROUP 2) - one of the three whom was talking together at the toilet in the middle of the first night. coz they dowan to sleep. but yea, not from my group. =D

peace (GROUP 2) - one of the three also! it was really nice knowing you all..

yee sin (GROUP 4) - one of the three as well.

TO zenna, peace and yeesin, i dunoe wad i can say, but i really feel that we're really close. mayb coz we talked alot more than between me and my other kids luh. haha... dunoe how come u all siao siao wan, midnite liao no nid sleep wan.. keep asking wad time is my debrief ending, and all.. so sry i can't really talk to u all that much during the camp. dun haf that much time! debrief ended at 5AM for the first nite, and 3AM for the 2nd night. lol i wouldn't want you all to stay awake the whole night to wait for me also.. so ya.. haha !

instructors to mention are: carol, ai shu, lynette, zihao, junwei, keith, eden, and of course all my SP friends who was working on this camp together. it was really great teamwork from everyone ! haha. my 2nd day event was partnering with Ai Shu at the canoeing station. she can canoe really well man! lol i feel that i suck. lolololol. oh well. thats roughly all for instructors.

this camp wouldn't be nice without everyone! once again. THANKS alot. its a memory i'll never forget. =D very mixed emotions.. there were many things i wanted to type in this blog post, but i cant really type them all out.. i just know i feel very reluctant to let the kids go back to their school, and get back to their real life. and not as though they were in camp. but, i can't.. coz its their school times afterall.. hees =D after i sent everyone back to their school, i guess i teared abit, coz i miss them alot. afterall being with them for a whole 3 days, already bonded together le ma... haha.. but still... yea... glad was able to contact with some luh... haha.... alrites, may everyone stay happy and safe. till the next time we meet ba !! =DD

2ND EVENT
Date: 6TH March 2008
School: Nanyang Girls High School
Event: Secondary 1 Lifeskills Camp 2008
Location: Safra MT Faber

Alrite, this camp is a one day lifeskill course outing. the kids have already had the camp in their own school for 1 day, this is the 2nd day of the camp. their outdoor day.. =D 3 main events, trekking, mass dance and water activities.

the total time of the event was only from 9AM, where they came in buses, till 4.30PM where they returned back to school. a short 8 and a half hours only. there were approx 400 students for this camp. they were damn enthu wan i tell u all. NANYANG cheering rox!! (no offence to my fairfield kids, haha =P) but these nanyang bunch were really great.

2 of us instructors took a group of students. they were seperated into 24 groups. each group is actually an entire class. for my class, i should say, are all the ELITES. why would i say so? i got to talk to some of my kids when we were doing trekking. den i realised the entire class was made up of people with >265 aggregate for PSLE. HAHA.. i feel so dumb when i'm wif them. haha! but anyways.. apart from that, their leadership skills were all SIBEI GOOD can. my class itself, a total of 34 students, were made up of PREFECTS, MONITRESSES, AMBASSADORS, LEADERS, PREFECTS, CAPTAINS, EXCOS, and all! from the namelist i received, there was alittle info about the students de ma.. this was under the section "LEADERSHIP POSITION IN PRIMARY SCHOOL". i was taken aback. like seriously. i had like 8 monitress, 2 goodwill ambassadors (i dunoe wads that, but sounds really cool), 1 resource leaders, 1 band leader, 1 tennis captain, 2 house captains, 2 vice captains, 13 prefects, 4 head prefects, and all. its like, OMG la, totally made up of ELITES i should say. haha

whenever i needed a cheer from my group, the norm from a camp. camps without cheers are not camps luh. haha... they would always haf a group of like 3-5 students who would lead the cheers, i didnt even haf to shout at the top of my voice, like what i did to my fairfield kids (no offence har, fairfield kids. =X). they were automated luh!.. they were competitive, and didnt wan to lose to neighbouring groups wan. so keep cheer louder and louder. lolx.. though didnt really spent alot of time together, but it was really fun for the day's event lah.. haha ! a few names i manage to remember

Siew Ting (GROUP 13) - lol, not feeling well, den keep walking slowly behind when we were doing trekking. one of the bunch who was chattering away with me at the back of the group.

Rachel (GROUP 13) - lols, also on of the bunch lo.

shanna (GROUP 13) - i dun remember much liao.. coz didnt really talk much, but roughly these were the few people i remember about..

haha, thanks to everyone that the events were carried out nicely and i hope everyone had fun luh. haha ! the mass dance was funny also.. we instructors had our fair share of fun. Mark, Yi Xin, Nina, Shafiq, are just some of the instructors from my section, it was fun working with them also. haha =DD

when they got on the bus and left at the end of the day, it was as though we became jay chou and david beckham for a short while, with everyone waving to us and all.. haha stupid right.. but fun day. fun.. =DD after the events, we went to take a shower and got ready to head back to pasir ris park for the 2nd camp that was ongoing there. but i was only going to help out for campfire. heh =D

3RD EVENT
Date: 6TH March 2008
School: Compassvale Secondary School
Event: Secondary 3 Adventure Camp 2008
Location: Pasir Ris Park

this was actually an event i didnt participate in. but this was a back to back camp event. meaning everything was so packed that i couldn't possibly split myself up to go so many camps.. 3rd - 5th march fairfield camp, and this camp was from 5th - 7th march. my nanyang girls event was on 6th march ma.. haha... alrite so there was another bunch of instructors doing this camp. amee, shermian and xuejia were among those doing that was from SP. so yea..

haha, i juz went back to the camp site at around 6pm liddat. to help out wif campfire activities after my nanyang girls event over at mount faber. WAN drove us there, so it was rather shiok. haha =DD went back there to find out that the grass field was super duper muddy, cant possibly hold campfire event over there. so held an indoors one.. helped out abit here and there, and the kids came over le.

the whole campfire ended at say 10PM +/- ba.. but the mood was high, played some popular music, and as usual. the campfire ended with westlife songs, some hits which everyone sure to hear before de. like I lay my love on you, flying without wings, my love, and many other nice songs. haha, brought up the mood of it.. =D it was really tiring to haf so many events together at the same time.. didnt even have enough sleep luh! lolx... but still it was nicely done...

for this compassvale one, i guess carol, hui hua, glenn, zi hao, eddie, and all those senior instructors who were making everything happen!.. they really put in damn lot of effort lo..

lols, i left pasir ris at around 12.30am liddat.. to go home. carried my heavy bag all over wif me, since the nanyang girls event, i didnt even go home.. i was so damn beat also.. so many days of continuous little sleep. how to tahan! lolx.. den slept till now den i wake up le ... lots lots of miss call and sms.. lol guess some people do miss me afterall...

whew, finally type finish this long post liao. i tink i write very long.. from 9PM write till now 10PM le... in all, i really enjoy the camps luh !! =DD love my kids, like the instructors, and everything else about the whole week that's just passed for me ! ... haha... alrite ba... this marks the end of my camping spree this week le...

i gotta go prepare for my another outing. i'm going THAILAND from 8th March - 11th March. anybody if going there also, or is already there, can come find me! haha... give me a call via this number +6598702252. remember the +65 hor!.. SG code. =DD alrites ba, i'm off. thanks for reading this post of mine!!! i <3 MY KIDS!

yo wassup everyone. lol, got good things to share. lol, -edited- there're 3 Pagani Zondas in singapore, here's one of them. They're more rare than lamborghinis, and even more expensive than a lamborghini murcielago. GUESS WHAT, HERE IT one of it.

"Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more
intelligently."

Failure constitutes fault and chance. It gives the satisfactory of getting things done the second time. Meaning, overcoming ur failure. Generates the sense of achievement, and proof of intelligence. So, don't be afraid to FAIL. just like me. WHAHAH.

NOTE: FYP sux.
