Pretty interesting. LOL. In case you can't read what's on it, it says,

"You're a Green.
You’ve got style, ’tude, and sex appeal. That’s right. You’re a sassy and stylish green. You do know what they say about the green ones, right?"





Does this explain why I loved vandalising every table & chair in my secondary school? =P

"You express yourself through artistic pursuits!
Whether your preferred practice is writing, painting, or doodling, your creative outlet is grounded in the arts. Your imagination—and how you translate it into everyday masterpieces—is your ultimate form of personal expression. You may not always put your creations on display, but each time you create something that’s uniquely you, you feel a strong sense of well-deserved pride."

28 Apr 2008: Am forced to blog about this. =P

Had dinner at Sun with Moon Japanese Dining & Cafe with my Ronald Baby (RB).

*Yes I know, the RB & JB crap sounds uber disgusting. Pls feel free to puke.*

He saw my craving for Sun with Moon desserts from my blog, so he brought me to The Central's outlet. So he can see his name in my blog. So smart, baby.

05 Apr 2008: Finally, the tormenting CCM paper is over. 4 little excited girls (Lindy, Qi, Ping & I) & one of the little girl's bf (Lindy's bf, Edward) went for supper straight after the paper. Little couple went off after the feast & the other 3 little girls walked to The Cathay for Ben & Jerry's.

After which, these 3 little girls loitered around the vicinity & decided to park themselves at the benches of SMU.

And chatted till dawn.....

02 Apr 2008: I've never felt such intense outrage in a coon's age!

Lindy, Ping & I are infuriated by Marcus. Have met my fair share of free riders in project groups, but I never ever expected my long time friend to be like that. Neither did I anticipate this coming from a supposedly mature adult.

We had to hand in our CCM (cross cultural management) main assignment on 31 Mar. It was a group project, so we splitted all the work & Ping would do the compilation & editing. So, deadline for submission (to Ping) to our group email, ZQB, was 28 Mar. We arranged for a meeting on 29 Mar, a Sat afternoon, to further discuss what can be done as our parts could not really integrate well into a whole report.

So, Ping mass smsed everyone on the meeting details. NO reply from him. FINE, that wasn't the first time anyway. We weren't sure if he would turn up coz there wasn't any confirmation from him. He's working 5 1/2 days, so we fixed it in the afternoon. Partly because we wanted to zzz lah. Haha..

On the day itself, we were speculating if he would turn up as no one heard from him. He did not reply a single sms. So I decided to call him. No answer. Ng Qi called. No answer too. I decided to be a nuisance & called once again. He finally answered & told me he was on his way from office. Our discussion was held at OCBC Centre's Burger King at Raffles Place. His office was at Dhoby Ghaut. He should reach in a jiffy right?

Hell no. He took hours to reach. Ng Qi even said sarcastically, "I wonder if his office is located in Malaysia. Even if it is, he would have reached." LOL!!

He finally strolled in & wasn't apologetic at all. Well, not like it bothered me. In the midst of our discussion, guess what, he was busying copying Lindy's lecture notes! Why? Because he was away on ICT & missed the lectures.

He wasn't participative in the discussions, & when we arrowed questions at him, he'd go, "Huh?" His reaction seemed to say, "Well, whatever you say. Don't ask me."

Ping looked through his part, & found no citations to his tables, so yeah, he was asked to cite the source of his tables. In addition, he was asked to do the abstract & conclusion for our report. Well in my opinion, he seemed a little reluctant with a reply, "Huh, you girls trust my English?"

Precisely. That's why the abstract & conclusion, so it wouldn't affect our content much.

We decided we should all send Ping our edited parts by Sun night, 30 Mar, 10pm. Nothing from him. After numerous houndings from Qi, he finally sent in his BIBLIOGRAPHY. What do we need the biblio for? We needed his table citations, abstract & conclusion!!

It wasn't until 10+am on 31 Mar that he FINALLY sent his abstract & conclusion to ZQB. To our horror, both his abstract & conclusion were a total crap!! They were DIRECTLY copied & pasted from different parts of the report. Nevermind if he did that, but the sentences made no logical sense at all!! We could not fathom what he was trying to say. Blood was boiling...

10+am on a Monday morning. Office hours. Lindy had to edit his conclusion & I did the abstract coz if we got him to redo, god knows when he would get them done. In the midst of editing, we realised it was much easier to completely overhaul them.

We spent almost ALL of our time clearing his mess in the office. Work was neglected because of that. Luckily my boss wasn't around, else I wouldn't be able to have the "luxury" of doing my school work the whole day. Poor Ping, she had lots of work to do, yet she had to do all these shit.

After we managed to get EVERYTHING done at about 9pm, she had to stay in office just to complete her work.

Ping was so pissed that she sent this email to ZQB, as well as an exact same sms to Marcus:

"Dear Marcus,

Lindy and Jaye and me had to pia this out during work. Plz bear in mind that other pple also have jobs. Having to completely over haul your work is not our job.

And YES we are pissed at you."

I salute you, Ping! Lol...

If you thought our group was the worst, allow me to show you what that childish, high-pitched & squeaky-voiced 19-year-old guy from my class wrote for his part:

"People live on this planet and they travel to work from planet to planet. The managers whose organisations with overseas subsidiaries are very stressed."

PLANET TO PLANET?! Wahahaha... I almost fell off the chair upon reading it. When I showed Lindy & Ping this, they almost died laughing!!

How did I know what he wrote? Ronald was ranting to me & he was frustrated by that crap too.

Haiz, the detriments of group projects...

Something "interesting" to share...

This was taken on 3 Feb 2008, in a pub at East Coast Park.


YSS & YTB.. Who else? =P

Notice the signage behind us? It said, "Smoking Corner". Yeah, point is, the both of us are non-smokers. But we were mistaken as smokers. Especially yours truly. ALOT, and I repeat, ALOT of people mistook me as a smoker. What the.... -_-

Two non-smokers with the smoker-look sitting at the smoking corner.. Haha..

Anyway.. Buang-ed my HRM paper. Now waiting to buang driving test & buang Econs paper. Zzzzzz..

I sound pretty negative, don't I? Just physically & emotionally drained. Very tired. Ulcers popping out in my mouth non stop. A symptom of stress? Hmm..

04 Nov 2007: Happy Belated Birthday To Me!!!

Met the girls for dinner at Hard Rock Cafe (HRC). Don't ask me why I went there all of a sudden, but I just thought I haven't been there for ages.


Ya Jing & I. Ken & Adrian said I looked super act cute
in plaids. But I thought I looked more youthful. =(

Reached there, and was told by the staff that there were some problems with Visa & Mastercard network, so we could only make payments using Amex cards or cash. Which means I couldn't utilise the HSBC discount!!


Qin Ting, Amy & Shu Zheng

So the grumpy me was making lots of noise to the staff coz with the HSBC discount, we could save quite an amount on our total bill. They promised to talk to their manager & get back to me, but they never did so.

From my past experience at HRC, the serving size was so huge that 2 people could share a portion. We ordered 1 starter & 2 mains for the 5 of us and guess what, we were so full!! Here's what we ordered:


Starter: Jumbo combo


Main: Chicken chop & macaroni cheese


Main: Fish & chips

Lots of variety for Jumbo Combo. Spring rolls, drumlets, potato, onion rings, breaded prawns & salad. Chicken chop + macaroni cheese was nice. But it was quite cheeesy so one could easily get sick of it. As for the fish & chips, I wouldn't say it was good. There was a strong fishy taste. Eeeewwwww..

When it was time for bill, the Visa network was up. Lucky them, else I would start making noise again. Haha..


Bad photography skills. =(

27 Oct 2007: Was tricked tricked tricked!! =P

We organised this Halloween get-together on the 27th as Halloween falls on the 31st. Little did I know that it turned out to be my birthday celebration as well. It involved a big group so we had a hard time organising. Some wanted to join for dinner, while some wanted only to chill out, and some joined for both.

Katrina & I were doing lots of sourcing & discussions for dinner & chill out places. Yanny suggested Oosh initially, but it's located at Dempsey & the others were reluctant to travel there. So well, we got some places in town.

Finally, we decided on Pasta De Waraku (cheap & good food) for dinner, then chill-out at The Loof.

While waiting for dinner to be served...


Long lost sisters?


Women In Black


Let us present The Most Compatible Couple award
to Eugenia & Adrian


The seemingly shy couple: Sim Lim & Cherie

After dinner, the waiter went to our table, stood in front of me & asked, "May I know who brought the cake here?" He spoilt the surprise intended for me!!!


Yummy durian cake from Emicakes. The durian puree
was thick & fragrant & NICE. *Slurp*


I can't wait to eat the cake!!


What are they looking at?


Where's Jiawen? She was late!!!


A punch for the birthday girl. *Ouch*


Standing (L-R): Cherie, Sheryce, Katrina, Eugenia
Sitting (L-R): Jiawen, Star of the Night, Yanny

Goodness... I'm so thick-skinned!! I actually called myself the Star of the Night. Hahaha..


(L-R): Sim Lim, Cleave, I, Zhicheng, Adrian
What are the guys trying to do to me?


Don't look at me. Look at the array of pastas in the background!!

Walked to The Loof after we finished the cake. Adrian & Eugenia did not join us for chill out coz that zhu Adrian wanted to rest early for his New Balance Marathon the following morning. =(


The ERG 3-8s at The Loof

Katrina suggested going to St James as it was quite boring at The Loof. Only Kat, Yanny, Jiawen, Rachel (Jiawen's friend from APD), Kah Hin & I went to St James. The rest stayed at Loof. Bably was at St James so we joined her.


It was just the start...


Bably & the cat woman


A group photo in Powerhouse

So mean of them!! They refused to let me go home until I get horribly drunk. We opened a bottle of Vodka with lime juice & orange juice as mixers. Our lovely Jiawen made me a Screwdriver (Vodka + orange juice) concoction specially for me. A high concentration of Vodka with little orange juice.

The rest plotted a Flaming Waterfall, Flaming Lamborghini & something else (can't remember what was it as they listed out many options) for me. First was Flaming Waterfall.

I pleaded with them, asking them not to be so cruel to me. Haha!! So Kat & Bably helped me with the Flaming Waterfall...


Sipping the Flaming Waterfall


We've completed the Flaming quest!!

They wanted Flaming Lamborghini for me 20mins later. Goodness. In the meantime, Jiawen made another Screwdriver for me, this time with more alcoholic content. After that glass, crap, I felt so high!!


Bably, Rachel & Kah Hin

As my friends know, I don't club coz I don't dance. But when I'm high on alcohol, I'll start grooving to the music. Yes that was exactly what I did that night. Seeing me in such a high state & I kept insisting I WAS drunk, they decided not to sabo me with Flaming Lamborghini. Phew!


Lovely Jiawen & I, with the EXTRA drinking in the background


Muackzzzz

When we've had enough of Powerhouse, we hopped to another club which I couldn't remember what the name was. The loud music made my head spin & I couldn't take it anymore. I told Kah Hin I wanted to go home. (Yanny went off first, so she didn't send me home. Kah Hin lives really near me, so naturally, we would share a cab.)

Keng Soon sent Kah Hin & I home. On the way to Keng Soon's car, I was walking unsteadily & the 2 hunks had to ensure I wouldn't fall. I volunteered to take the back seat & once I was in the car, I slept all the way home....

KS parked in front of the rubbish dump. I still walked in a drunken state. Both of them were so afraid I would fall into the rubbish bin. Haha..


I didn't know when this picture was taken!!


High & flushing in the toilet (pun intended)

23 Oct 2007: Was supposed to go Far East Square for lunch at Pizza Hut with the ERG ladies. When it was time for lunch, all of them (Ling jie, Winnie, Meilian) disappeared. I thought they were busy or in the washroom, so I waited at my desk.

Suddenly, Ling jie called my ext from the lobby, "Yin mei, this Avinash hor, brought a management here for meeting. I can't find Meilian so I received them on her behalf. But now, I'm really urgent & wanna visit the toilet. Can you help me to make a cup of coffee? They are at Metal Room. Thanks thanks."

I went to the pantry, made a cup of coffee naively & cursed Avinash for bringing management here at lunch time. By the way, Avinash is the broker from Morgan Stanley who's absolutely pesky & I really dislike him.

When I reached Metal Room...


They caught my surprised look!!


Posing with the Secret Recipe cakes. Yum yum~


Noi Noi, Nette Nette, Xiao Mei Mei, Nie Nie

Oh yeah, what happened to the coffee? Ling jie drank it of course. Coz she was the one who used that coffee trick to make me go to the room!!

Thanks for the trick & surprise!! Hehe..

20 Oct 2007: Xiao Pang Zhu is a year older now. =P Coincidentally, his birthday falls on the same day as my dad's.

Celebrated a day earlier coz his birthday falls on a Sunday. Peiwen & Dan joined us after dinner as Dan's dad was hospitalised.

So... Met that zhu for dinner at Central Mall. Wanted to go Pasta De Waraku, which I heard is good. But the queue was super long. 11 people before us. Goodness. Ended up in this Japanese restaurant which has got no queue. Usually no queue = not nice, but heck lah, we were too hungry to even wait. Furthermore, there was 20% discount for UOB cardholders. Haha..


The deserted restaurant


The potato salad is nice!!


My all-time favourite: Salmon sashimi

Peiwen & Dan met us at Central & we proceeded to Clarke Quay to chill out. Our first choice was The Clinic coz of the theme. Hospital theme. But it was full when we reached, so we went to Mama's Caribbean Bar.


Cheers to my Caribbean Queen

Wen jie & I gave the excuse of going to the washroom, & we went out searching for a cake. The nightlife of Clarke Quay was so beautiful that we were quite reluctant to go back. =P


Daniel, Wen jie, Xiao Pang Zhu & I

Went to Haagen Dazs to look for a small ice cream cake. They did not have the size we wanted, but the guy was really friendly & helpful. He told us where we could get other cakes & the directions of the shops. The plus point was, he had small eyes, tall, & a warm smile. LOL!!


Finally bought the cake at Coffee Club


Ordered 1/2 dozen shots before we left Mama's


Birthday kiss? NO, let's bite his ears off!!


The Clinic


Get what I mean about the theme?

Hopped to The Clinic when they finally had seats available. Very expensive drinks, though there wasn't any cover charge. We paid for the concept & the fun rather than the drinks quality. Doubt I'll ever go back again due to the pricing. Hmmm..


Wheelchair bound

We had so much fun on the wheelchairs. Haha!! Every patrons at every table were wheeling up & down in the wheelchairs.

Guess what. A group of Caucasians were seated next to our table. Of course, they were enjoying the wheelchairs as well. One of the guys stood up suddenly & exclaimed, "It's a miracle!! I am walking, I'm walking!!"

So -__________- right.

We suspected he was a gay. When that "miracle" wheeled past Xiao Pang, he told him he was hot. OMG...


The drink's name was Sex on the Drip


Monkeying around the drip. =P


Clarke Quay at 1am. Love it!!

A drama took place near us when we were about to leave. That was like 1.45am? 2 male Caucasians (yes, ang mohs again) were walking down the lanes when they suddenly pushed each other onto the ground. One of them was on top of the other, & they shouted incoherent sentences. The one on top slapped the guy below him & they continued shouting.

Nobody dared to interfere coz they seemed drunk. It was after a short while when a Caucasian couple approached them & tried to break them away.

They did not budge. The lady talked to them in a seemingly nice manner. Just before they broke away, the guy on top grabbed the other guy's crotch!! Eeeewwwwww. After which, both of them stood up & had their arms around each other's shoulders (like best buddies).

What a scene.


HELLLLLPP!!!

Monday, October 15, 2007

12 Oct 2007: I thought I would enjoy clubbing now that smoking is banned. Boy, I was wrong. I ended up in the police station instead.

The first reaction everyone (including my mum) had was, "You got into a fight?" Didn't know I look like an ah lian. Haha.. Nope, I wasn't involved in a fight. I was molested.

Went clubbing with Peiwen, her bf Daniel & his colleagues. The initial plan was St James, but they changed to Dbl O instead. I'm not into clubbing but I enjoyed myself. At about 2.30am, we were tired & decided to leave. On our way out, Dan was first, followed by Peiwen, then me. Peiwen was holding my hand as we walked out.

As we passed this table, some creep touched Peiwen's hand. After which, this same person touched my ******* ****. I thought it was accidental so I ignored it & moved away at the same time. Little did I know that he had the audacity to slide his hand to my butt & tried to grab/squeeze them. Then I realised it wasn't so innocent. I flung his arm/hand away, & glared at him.

Overwhelmed by shock, I continued making my way out. When I regained my composure, I turned to Peiwen.

Me: Wen jie, a guy touched me when we walked past him.
PW: Where did he touch you?
Me (pointing at he areas he touched): Here & here.
PW: WHAT?!
Me (nodded): Yes.
PW: He tried to touch me just now but only managed to touch my hand, so I just brushed it off. I didn't know he molested you!!
PW (grabbed my wrist & made a u-turn): Let's go & confront him!

Reached the table & Peiwen asked me who molested me. I pointed to the guy (the same guy who touched her hand). She was very angry & started shouting at that guy.

PW: How dare you molest my friend!
Guy: What? I didn't do anything!
PW: Still trying to deny it?
Guy (had a guilty look & tried to move away from us): What? I was drinking here all along. What did I do to your friend?
Me: Why are you walking away? Guilty? You dared to molest yet you dare not admit what you did. You call yourself a man?

Anyway I don't think he's even a man. He looked like he's younger than me!!

His friends came over, & asked what happened. We told them their friend molested me yet did not admit it. Of course, they tried to defend him, saying he was drunk & blah blah blah. Drunk, my foot!! He was obviously sober & didn't show any hint of getting drunk.

We wanted him to admit it, apologise to me & we would let the matter rest. But he refused to. We created such a commotion that we attracted lots of curious stares. Eventually, the bouncers came over & we were told to settle the matter outside Dbl O.

Fine. We stormed out angrily with him & his friends, plus Dan & some of his colleagues. We shouted at him again, like 2 ah lians trying to start a fight. Haha..

Anyway, he still refused to admit it. Heated words were exchanged among the guys. They almost broke into a fight when Peiwen & I stood between the 2 groups & tried to push them off. Just then, the police came. I wasn't sure if they were on patrol or the bouncers called for them.

Police: What's happening over here? Can you settle it among yourselves?
PW: Yes sir, give us 5 minutes.
Police: Ok.

PW & I: Now will you admit it?
Guy: Admit what? I didn't do anything!
PW & I: Admit, apologise, & we promise not to blow up the matter. We'll let it rest.
Guy: No.

We gave him chance & he didn't want it. So we reported it to the police & let them settle it.

While waiting, 3 other girls went to the police & 2 of them said they were being molested. By the same guy. Now he's doomed. I have 2 more girls to back me up now.

Peiwen hugged me & cried suddenly. She kept apologising & said it was her fault that I got molested. I didn't blame her at all & it wasn't her fault. But she said that if she didn't insist I go clubbing with her, such a thing wouldn't happen.

It really, really wasn't her fault.

After all the troublesome procedures, we were told to go down to Tanglin Police Div HQ, on our own. Located at Kampong Java, but it seems like Jalan Ulu to me. Nothing but trees all around.

Took our statement, waited for this & that, we finally left at 5am. What an evening. Oh yeah, this creep turns out to be an army regular. He's doomed. Even if there isn't sufficient evidence to prove him guilty in a criminal case, I hope he gets kicked into DB (detention barrack - army's prison).

10 Oct 2007: What an "interesting" evening. Let me list the events that took place in chronological order:-

What's my blogging personality?

Chanced upon this after doing the previous test. So I thought it'll be pretty interesting to try out!!

Your Blogging Type is Unique and Avant Garde

You're a bit ... unusual. And so is your blog. You're impulsive, and you'll often post the first thing that pops in your head. Completely uncensored, you blog tends to shock... even though that's not your intent. You tend to change your blog often, experimenting with new designs and content.

Yes my blog is really uncensored. I blog about anything & everything. Which explains why I disclose my blog address to very few people. I don't want the whole world to know the skeletons in my closet!! Haha..

Saturday, October 06, 2007

How rare is my personality?

Saw this test in both Ping & Lindy's blog, so I decided to play with it as well. Heeee..

Your Personality is Somewhat Rare (ENFP)

Your personality type is enthusiastic, giving, cautious, and loyal. Only about 8% of all people have your personality, including 9% of all women and 6% of all men You are Extroverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Perceiving.

Yeah I'm quite perceiving. I sense things mostly through my eyes. Intuitive... Adrian once said he feels scared of me when I can predict what he's gonna say. Sounds scary huh? Haha..

How true this is? You determine. =P

LIFE SUCKS.

Paid the second instalment of my degree programme last Friday. S$4,400. Feel so broke. My bank account is bleeding now.

Financial woes aside. They're just peanuts as compared to my working life. I am really really becoming an unmotivated employee. I no longer have the mood to work. I drag myself to office everyday. So depressed that I can cry uncontrollably anytime.

I'm not someone who only whines & does nothing about my current situation. I asked a colleague for more RA related work. I was told that there's nothing I can help out with coz they can cope. Either that or they don't have the time to teach me. What can I say? I sent out countless resumes from time to time. I glued myself in front of my PC for one whole day just to search for jobs. But I don't get a single response.

So in my opinion, there must be something to do with my resume. Well-meaning friends sent me their copies of resumes for reference. I spent time improving my resume. After which, I searched for jobs again with a glimmer of hope. But they proved futile & my hopes were dashed once again.

The cycle goes. I am very SICK. Very tired of everything. Plus, the secretary will be going on maternity leave pretty soon. 56 days to be precise. I have to cover her. For the 3 months, not only I have to continue submitting claims & doing all the usual shit, I have to juggle with her excessive workload as well. I have a hunch they'll drive me up the wall.

I'm not afraid of the workload. I'll take it as it comes. My only worry is school. My timetable is here, & during certain terms, I have classes from Monday to Friday which will commence at 6.30pm sharp. Those dates happen to coincide with her maternity leave. If I cannot finish my work before 6pm, how am I supposed to attend classes?

You might say I worry too much. But I know the situation best as I'd been through it. I have a strong urge to tender my resignation without having found a new job. But that'll be really stupid. I have to finance my studies thus I need the income.

The more I stay here, the more depressed I am. As my agony grows, I project a happier front. Why? Because I want to forget my misery temporarily. I live in self-delusion. I convince myself that I'm very satisfied with my life but I know it's untrue. Only close friends know what lies deep within me.

To add to my despondency, I had my heart broken recently. It was shattered into a million pieces. I knew this day would come, but what really hurts me was, "I do have feelings for you, but I don't like you enough." These words drove me to my grave. It felt as if a dagger had thrust deep into me & I fell to the ground. Still conscious but I was left bleeding alone. I just wouldn't die. I stayed alive enduring the torment.

The assailant fled & here I am, still waiting for someone to dial 995...

20 Sep 2007: Let me start off my post in a really cliche manner:

CONGRATULATIONS, NG NG!!

May you & your wife have a blissful marriage. (Not like Paul will be reading this post, but here's my heartfelt wishes to him & wife. Haha..)


Group picture

The wedding dinner took place at Grand Hyatt on a Thursday evening. Yeah, gotta lug my cosmetics & stuff to the office. So heavy...


Cherie & I, cam whoring again..

The whole event wasn't bad. Quite entertaining, but the food was below my expectations. It was quite late even before the dessert was served. I left some space in my stomach just for dessert coz it was my favourite - yam paste with gingko nuts. It ended up as a disappointment. The yam paste was clumpy, wasn't mixed well with the coconut milk & the worst part was, it was WAY too sweet.

Went home feeling dissatisfied with the dessert. =(

16 Sep 2007: Watched "Secret" with Katrina, Kat's younger sis, Jaimie, Sheryce, Cleave & Zhicheng. Been wanting to watch it very much. So excited!!

(OKAY, I get excited easily over the slightest things.)

People said I was dumb, coz the VCD/DVDs have already released yet I still went to the theatre. Whatever...

The show was NICE. Directed by Jay Chou, starring Jay Chou & Kwai Lun-Mei. His acting skills are still bad, but the story & plot are fantastic. It's not the kind of movie that I usually watch, coz I "hate" touching shows. I will start sobbing in the cinema & this time round, I cried too. Yeah, which is why I love action packed movies.

& the movie OST (yes, by Jay Chou again), 不能说的秘密, keeps playing in my head. Here's the music video if you don't know how it sounds like. Enjoy..
