I finally got to sleep early last night... It wasn't very early, at 1am, but compared to the psat few nights of 3am or even later, last night was relatively earlier, or rather, less later...

Yep my friends have got back together! Although partly was the work-imposed stress, but i must still attribute partly to the other guy who wanted to 横刀夺爱。He knew she is attached, yet never stopped his advancings... I hate such people! I sorta knew this guy too before in sec school, never really liked this guy for personal reasons esp in sec 3. Coz last time, he used to bully me... really... i kanna bullied when i was young one... Haa... But used to see him in ntu, but i still like smiled at him sometimes lor... So once i hated him, now i despised him...

Oh he's from NBS too btw, our batch one... But not very good to say too much...

Enjoy this nice n simple song by Wang Li Hong!

The hot humid weather, plus that I am staying on 2nd storey, makes my house infested with mosquitoes.

Despite switching on the Baygon mosquito repeller at night, spraying lots of mosquito-killing insecticide, burning mosquito coils, they still exist! In fact i could hardly sleep last night because of the mosquitoes...

Today i have taken some revenge... I killed about 7 mosquitoes tonight! Yeah all by using my hands. Killing them this way is more satisfying and fulfilling, coz u get to kill them with ur own hands (u c ur own blood in ur own hands too), and osso, u get to see them actually die (as compared to sprays, when u dunno if it's even effective). Oh did i mention that i killed 5 mosquitoes last weekend?

Never-ending mosquitoes. My most hated enemies... Mosquitoes are much more irritating than "??"s or "???"s btw...

On 2nd thought, maybe the Motorola E680 is more suitable...

OK i was actually aiming for a PDA phone, and i was looking at HP iPaq 6365. However, for HP, it's really more of a work phone. It's camera is not so powerful, and it doesn't record video as well. And then, do i really need WIFI on my phone? (Even tho i have free wireless in NTU. And i have wireless at home too.)

However, the E680, its SMS style is different. And it consumes electricity fast, altho it comes with 2 batteries but no ext charger. And it doesn't have infrared, only bluetooth, which means i need a bluetooth adapter to transfer stuff from my laptop to my phone, and vice versa. But it's still cheaper.

*Ponders*

I am intending to get a new phone... Not because i have won some lottery or something, just that my plan has ended for quite some time, and now Starhub has a $100 off for all existing subscribers (Sticking with Starhub as i have been greatly satisfied with their mobile services). However my phone currently has only a $100 trade-in vale at Starhub shops. So low! Outside shops would def offer more, but outside shops normally would not offer upgrade of plans. So if i do trade-in my phone, that means a total of $200 off. And I do see many fantastic offers in Starhub shops now...

And yep, I have a phone targetted liao~! Initially i targetted the Motorola E680 as well, but although it is cheaper, it does not have WIFI or an infrared port.

Saw on MTV Channel that Twins are coming out with their debut mandrian album! Heard my fav Twin's song “下一站天后” being translated in Chinese “莫斯科没有眼泪”... Hmmm the Canto version is much much nicer.

** I hope my friends would patch up soon!!** Knew some details liao, but i sincerely hope they can get back together...

It was nice to have a gathering with my NTU classmates at hoi's place once again! Thank hoi for providing the place, hoi's maid for preparing the food, WH for the camera, ZH for paying for the pig first, smint n hoi for posting up the fotos, n the rest for coming!

In the midst of all the reports n projects, this gathering has been a good chance for us to take a breather n relax in the cooling winds at hoi's condo while gathering around a fire n beng-ing our food. Haha...

No la smint, its not that i m so craving for attention that i wan to appear in every photo... it's just that i would like to have some memories... in fact i wan lotsa lotsa memories, memories of happy times spent, memories with people whom i enjoyed being with. When i grow old, i want to look back n be reminded of happy times. Don't u? =)

Vexed when writing my AA201 part, but i get more agitated when...

Ok this is one thing that really agitates me...

That is when people talk to me on msn, n enquire with me something, which means it is a request, they use 2 or more question marks.

Over the past few hours, about 4 people enquired me with some things and they ask...

1. "What are the room numbers??"
2. "U there??"
3. "When can I check points??"
4. "Can borrow???"

I hate it when people ask me things, and they use more than 1 question marks! It's ok to use more than 1 question mark in situations like "Oh really??" (Surprised/Shocked), or "Wat i stupid??" (Joking/suaning), but when its a request, shoudn't one be more polite?

I admit it may not be a big issue to some people, in fact, some people I know use "???" so often, they use it to replace a single question mark. Using more than one question mark always give me the feeling that the other party is so impatient, and so rude. Like u r asking me for something, yet u also want the answer fast, and u dun wan to wait, so u use 2 question marks so that the other party will take notice. And it tink its a stupid excuse if someone says its an accident to type in 2 qn marks or more... Typing a qn mark in the 1st place requires holding down the "Shift" button, would it really be so convenient to accidentally hold down the "Shift" button for so long? Using more than 1 question mark sure made me took notice, but in a negative manner.

When people ask me for a request using "??" or more, i reply back short answers. And i hope to end the conversation with the other party, coz i dun want to see more questions with more than one question mark. It annoys me a lot. Now the answers to the 4 questions...

1. Room numbers?? U tink the hon gen so free, everyday open back the powerpoint and check the room numbers for u??
2. Not even a greeting first??
3. Dun u have eyes to see the notices outside toilet doors n pantries and everywhere??
4. Must i lend u???

But of coz i dint reply in such manner, else i would be as rude...

So next time whether u r asking me or other people for a request, please be polite no matter what.

Last night, our Hall had single room meeting... it was horrifying~! Well i didn't expect such a crowd and so many conflicts... Last yr peaceful peaceful, this yr was terrible... N messy coz i didn't really expected such a crowd... Should have organized the people according to blks... Well, never mind it's over. Sigh, i am NOT looking forward to allocating rooms in june... Oh wait i still must allocate Blk 66 residents next week coz of pre-U seminar...

And today was aa202 presentation... Another chance to dress up! Performance wise, not very good... Should have rehearsed more of my speech. Got stuck at certain parts... Hmmm... now that it's over, the reports etc...

Did i mention that when i came back Hall on Monday, i had forgotten to bring my hall keys back in?? Almost wanted to travel back home n take, but decided to ask Hall office if i could borrow for one week. "No" Sigh... so i put down my things in Hall and travelled to CHC there to make a duplicate key... Well, at least i got a spare key now...

And can u believe it, I have more TAX on this saturday, n next (after Good Fri! And this will be our 3rd TAX quiz) Arrgh... Aunty Moira!!! Sorta reminds me of my JC times, when my acctg tutor, Ms Lim, used to have many make-ups for accounting... After school, saturdays etc... But TAX is worse, coz anuty moira is strict, and also, i dun understand tax...

And I just thought of this: What do i get when i stand behind my TAX statutues?

Ans: TAXI! Cause "i" am behind my "TAX" so it's TAXI!!

Haha... lame ah... =P

My Hall's D&D was on sat, 5th March, at the Concorde, the hotel near Zouk there one...

Dint want to spend a lot on doing hair, in fact i dint want to spend much at all for this D&D at all! But in the end, still... haa...

The event would have been more, MUCH MORE enjoyable, if my preident didn't make mi n ZQ (vice-prez) to sit with them at the VIP table. Woah, VIP table! But do NOT be misled! It's where the Hall counsellors are sitting as well!! Sigh... Heng ZQ was at the table, as well as my prez' and his gf... But still, i would rather sit with YK n PQ they all @ the end.

The event this year wasn't too bad. In fact it was much more smoother than last year. The host is much better, as well as the games played are more interesting.

Would like to post some photos up, but i have only received one photo from my Asst Hon Gen so far. I didn't bring any camera, but i went around taking photos with other people... Haa now is the tough part, to get the photos from each person!

http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take

Inter-Advanced

You scored 6% Beginner, 86% Intermediate, 93% Advanced, and 61% Expert!
You have a good understanding of intermediate and advanced commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of the intermediate and advanced level questions correct. The puzzling part of your test result is the fact that you only answered 75% or less correct in the beginner section. Fascinating.


There must be an error lor! How could i have scored only 6% Beginner right???

Mabel's 21st birthday is coming... shall take this chance to wish her...

Happy 21st Birthday Mabel!
Hope everything goes well n smoothly in this year ahead for ya~!

Think this week have been quite busy... 2 quizzes juz whizzed by me on tues, namely tax & ac213, which is IS, but everyone fondly calls it IT. Tax quiz, as usual, was full of tricky stuff, which makes me wonder if a simple little question is right or wrong... As for IS/IT, we were actually late for the quiz for 15 mins! Coz Ms Boh Liao Fong (she doesn't read my blog rite...)never said clearly where the lesson was... Dun think its our fault, if fake alvin was late for class as well... haa... Boring quiz... Couldn't crap well enuf tho, mind was a bit messed up after being late...

Thurs is tax presentation... Yes tax again! Arrrgh! Sem break dunno got how many tax make-ups... my msn friends all know my tax lessons too... Then have to tax ourselves again with tax presentation! On reliefs! No, i am not the least bit relieved!

Tax is taxing.
Reliefs are not relieving.

933

Tuesday, March 1

Came back hall on sun nite, keyed in points... n my skin was peeling due to the suntan last week... Horrible!

Thus i went back to my good n friendly skin doc, Dr Ong, at maple clinic... yeah all the way back to tampines... She is still so friendly and helpful, got a nice smelling bathing oil n some moisturizer... haa... Since i was in tampines, i went back home as well...

Ok i was trying to inject something interesting n exciting there, but what?? Haa... yeah i admit its a bit stale reading that... Ok let me think of something else...

And i think y i felt so sianz now... its the radio... its the new midnight programme... its the DJ peifen instead of lingzhi at night! Aaaargh! I have no idea why 933 muz change shifts!! The old one was the best, def the best lor!

Morning was zhiyong n liyi, not bad la, but i only sometimes hear... too early haha!

Noon was weibing, actually i thot she's ok la, juz not those type of siao ones.

Then evening was chongqing n mary, 2 DJs who are ultra funny and when hosting together, bring enormous laughter! Listening them always cheer my evening up! Their programme is super funny one lor, coz got 2 siao DJs!

Then night was peifen on xian ge ji yi. She makes a good host for that coz most of the dedications came from pri/sec/jc students, n since peifen was the youngest, thus she can connect with them most. Her voice is sweet sweet one, suitable for that.

Then midnight, of coz is Lingzhi on 2300 Ji Mo You Ren Pei, my fav! Would always switch on radio, listen to Yin Yue Ri Ji, then listen to her show... Very very sensual! Her prog makes the night more beautiful and its always an experience listening to her prog. Really!

Now... peifen is hosting the midnight show. Her voice is juz too sweet to host it! Midnight is supposed to be a comfortable and soothing time, coupled with some witty and jokes. Peifen might have put in a lot of effort, but then, its really different...

Anyway i miss lingzhi. Perhaps the good thing is, i can listen to Yin Rue Ri Ji at 8pm den prepare to sleep early every night. Oh, yin yue ri ji... now they are gonna let peifen host it on tues n thurs, n lingzhi only on mon, weds fri!

Sigh. Last fri was lingzhi's last time hosting 2300, and it was the most sad n memorable time ba. Hearing all her recalls, memories n past programmes, it was so touching. All her viewers sms to show their support and bu she de... N you could hear Lingzhi herself was also touched, she kept saying she would not cry that nite... maybe she did, but not in the mic... And i remembered got one dedication saying that Yin Yue Ri Ji is linzhi's prog, if they wan 2 let others host, might as well remove Yin Yue Ri Ji completely! So true... last time, chongqing got host sometimes, but cannot la... now they let peifen try? Pls... as if i wan to hear sad heartbroken stories in a sweet sweet voice!

Lingzhi... U're the best!!
