What to do B4 Losing Hair


Mmm... looks like alot of people are celebrating their 'big occasion' in the recent 2 weeks.
*looks at jinhan (1mth), leslie (1yr), Boon (2yr)*

Last week, was also our 6th Month-sary...

too bad the exams are looming by, and i just started studying... we couldn't really spend a day out just having fun... my DAMN GOOD girlfriend instead suggested we should go have a nice dim-sum brunch at Harbourfront's Dragon Gate on Sunday morning since i don't have much chance of enjoying such luxuries during term time when i usually have trainings on weekend mornings.. and I've never gone there before..


A picture from the crime scene.... most of the food there were fried... our favourite were the fried yam balls with prawns and the fried mixed fruit balls. The rest of the food were just so so and quite filling cos there's so much batter on the fried dim sum. I think we still like Din Tai Fung's steamed dim sum selections like the mini yam baos and the XLBs from Din Tai Fung better..

The air conditioning at the restaurant was really cold...

After eating, we decided to adjourn to Starbucks@vivo to study... saw a couple of people studying there as well.. halfway through at our stay there.. local Capella group Budak Pantai (they have a nice website design btw ) came in and started promoting their upcoming concert and album... it was nice having people coming in and give a live gig though we were instead engrossed at our notes and sudoku puzzles half the time though.. and we left for my place immediately after their gig though.. cos the sun was shining through into the shop and unto us....


Haha.. last of all, i would like to thank my gf once again for throwing me another surprise last weekend.. for giving me an exams goody ... i was wondering how come she was coming over to my place so late ... who knew she would SURPRISE me once again.. lolz.


Haha.. thanks for being my cheerleader...=)

ooooooooOOoooooohhhhh... look what came.

I'm almost liberated from my group work. Just have to meet the prof and hand it to him. Just spent 38 bucks on printing my report. As i stepped out of the print shop and to the computer terminals, i could still see some people still furiously rushing through their report. They were from another class, and i wonder were their project as tough as my class. .. tough isn't the word..
. but tedious... cumbersome and just a plain waste of time...

I was really pissed at how things were going in the afternoon yesterday for my 4011 report... in the end, i gotta change my plans and i didn't manage to print out the report yesterday night, lost alot of valuable studying time. mutters.

Straight away after my quiz, i skipped my lunch, went down to the design lab, stole a monitor to attach to my laptop and started working on it. time then was around 230pm. I thought i could finish it by the evening, head out of school, return my library books and have dinner at ajisen .. rammennn.. the nnooodles, the soup... then study at starbucks... coffeee... how nice it would be.. to finally wrap things up and then start studying for the exams.

In the end, i was still changing things by around 5pm. After the lab closed, i moved to the library instead and continued working on it.
it was close to 930 pm before i left the library... without lunch, without dinner but my stomach filled with anger instead. Although things were better and i wasn't as angry when my gf started to talking to me... i still couldn't get over how badly and unsystematic things were done... not like my previous group work outings.... I was starting to feel pretty burned out... tired... and moodless to study.. though my paper is just next Thurs.

After hearing about how lousy things were going and how i wished to have some nice ajisen volcano ramen, my gf asked me if i really wanted ramen and said she will send it to me.. At first, i was wondering if she actually gonna go buy some and deliver it to my hall.. i was secretly wishing earlier in the evening... about how nice it would be if she would come by and surprise me hahaha.. but after some thought, i think its just silly and she shouldn't go through so much effort just for me. damn off.. lol... tekkan her to come to ulu NTU and then go back home just for my dinner .. I was also thinking.... Singapore where got people deliver ramen one.... Ajisen got ramen delivery services? I will be their favourite customer...so i rejected her initial offers but i relented once she assured me that she wasn't gonna come down... but she still wouldn't tell me how my ramen was coming...

Well, she told me that she already ordered my ramen and that it would come around 920-950 or so. In my mind, i still thought that she bluff me sia... order mac or kfc or pizza for me... or even call Mingli and Kaho pass to me.. but thats just plain silly... lol..

at around 10 pm, after some help was rendered to the poor delivery guy who got lost at the NEC, this package arrived...

Rammmmmennnnnnnnn.. pwah.. it really did came... i was kinda dumbfounded and smiling silly when it arrived... I couldn't find the words to describe my delight and happiness... You really made my day Joko =) Thanks for the surprise haha..

Its the first time I've encountered such a delivery service... actually the guy was from 'hungrygowhere.com' a local food search website, what i didn't expect was that you can actually order ramen from the website itself. For her, it was the first time she she did such a thing.. haha.. i'm honoured and touched by her effort.. haha..

you can still see that i'm still working on my 4011 report .... but heck it. my dinner more important..
what a healthy spread.. lots of vege, good portion of noodles, some meat and definitely lots of love.. haha..


i'm super touched.. haaaahaha.. thanks Dear! you cheered me up and recharged my drive to study once more...

dark clouds are looming and the kites are still flying...

mmm..finally... a night that seems good for a run.

i just did a straight 5 hour study session at the sac for my quiz tomorrow.. straight after my quiz today..
just had a short chat with denny... and he reminded me that next week is the start of exams..

exams? exams?? really?

next thursday is my first paper...
and i still have a report on hand and a nanotech quiz to go tomorrow..

its been a rush since last week and this week... for me, i did my part for the report dutifully and tried my best to help as much and then rushing to study for this week's quizzes.. gosh.. last week of sch still got lectures and quizzes... damn 'da pian' sia..

i guess all the work kinda made me so busy that i even put my exam 'kan cheongness' aside.. i havent really think so much into it.. i just thought about just studying and studying and dun care how when is it..

mebbe thats a good thing? but i guess thats all i can manage for now..

just wished everybody were a bit faster so we could wrap up last week not this week.. be it for lectures or my lousy engine design report..

for the engine design report , i guess we can only blame the silly prof for loading us with so much rubbish.. other people design rubbish bin, we have to design one automated car park... with x999999 mechanical components to consider.. anyway. i'm kinda sian doing the consolidating but i guess i'm the only one fast enough to get everythin moving. why does it have to be me at the first place ... i just hate people who wait on others....

anyway.. too late for such stuff... anyway i will finish consolidating and format it by tml afternoon and get it printed out before meeting the rest of the group... right now.. it stands at 200 + pages. siao.

don't worry. i'm fine... definitely not emo... just an occasional rant...

thanks dear for editing it for me... (and my group) i hope our ang moh aren't too bad. sometimes we just speak like that. hah!
looking forward to Sunday!

a tribute.

Coming back from my run and pull up this morning, i check my email and received a friendster birthday alert from his account.... i was thinking if people still remember that today is a very special day...or have they moved on from thinking about him... then seeing Ashley's then Soon Cai's nick..then Boon's blog.. i'm glad they still do.

3 years ago, this period of time, we were probably finish studying at the library and headed down to macs where you will have your Mcspicy with 2 packets of chili. one to put on top of the chicken patty, the other below it... While some of us are having tuna bread instead in a bid to lose weight

I kinda miss the times where i see u disturb people in the library .. how you and Justin terrorize and disturb all the prc students and this 'big nose' person who nehsi just wanna sit in the cubicles between us and the canoeists.

I feel like having one Mcspicy now.

Happy Birthday BS.

Football..

Well.... ever since i knew Joko, I've gone back to watching soccer just like how i did when i was in primary school... i guess i stopped for a while since my family didn't have cable tv and at other times, i am too lazy to stay up to watch the games...

anyway.. these days, playing the Fantasy Soccer League with Justin, Xinzhi and the oldbies been helping me relieve stress... For the games each week, i will scour the net for some tips for the players to add..

happen to chance upon this website and it happened to have one of the silly videos that Xinzhi posted up recently ..

my favourite section is the funbox section.. lots of silly videos about the hits and misses of soccer..

He's gonna be a sad striker..

Good for inter hall soccer competitions...


Get well soon Dear~!
