hehe

does anyone still read this?

let me publicize my flickr a bit hur hur kthxbye.



pls add me on flickr whoever sees this and likes this!!

hi max and nina and gloria you all are missed gabbag needs reunion inducers.

i am now in the office and i just ate a prata with a sausage in it seriously the prata tastes MUCH better than prata at casuarina or thompson BUT THE THING IS IT'S NOT A PRATA SPECIALTY STORE IT IS A PRATA USED FOR WRAPPING SAUSAGES.

oh it didn't only have a sausage it had like sauce and mayo and like lettuce where some parts tasted like raw cabbage.

gloria your life sounds v exciting i am jealous.

HAHA mine is not so bad either for the singapore peeps cafe cartel sells their cakes at half the price after 9pm SO I KEEP GOING DOWN FOR SUPPER/DESSERT I LOVE EATING.

i'm trying to wake up at 5am every morning to run. so far i've down the former - waking up at 5am but then i don't run i just switch off the alarm to go back to sleep.

important things i learned today

1. if u have a big enough pan u can fry 3 eggs at once
2. soy paste + water = damn good soup
3. soy paste + water + cabbage + lettuce = sukiyaki

YUMS. in fact i am eating it now.

so...as is kinda obvious..i have been testing my home economics skills over the past few days and i must say cooking is turning out to be easier than i thought

now i just hope my roommate doesnt realise she only has half a bottle of soy paste left

i lost my iphone
:(((((((((((

hahahaha ching ! lub chewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww MUACKS MUACKS MUACKS
do u know the ai wo bie zou links to baidu!?! -_- HAHA

today was great ppl!
i didnt even realise how much i missed the berkeley peeps but i do!
so i woke up at 6.30 am checked in bla bla boarded the plane and transited at seoul!
bird prob already knows this but they have ROTATING TOILET COVERS
so u dont have to like wipe the seat clean or squat over it like an idiot
anw i found that veryyyy cool
touched down in sf 12.30sf time took a cab home and...
spotted my roommate walking down the street! which was v good for me cos i didnt have to wait downstairs for my key
so anw for those who dont know i have 2 roommates jen and crystal
crystal's bf terence was also here he's rlly funny he talks crap all the time
and then virginie came over! my BFF haha felt kinda guilty cos i hadnt spoken to her the entire time i was back in singapore but it was good catching up and everything..got the dirt on her baby bro's new gf who's 30 cm shorter than he is, which is really rather strangely like how my bro's gf is 30cm shorter than he is

napped from 3.30-7.30 then went for dimsum with michelle, mike, chris
and i think we had enough leftovers to feed 4 homeless ppl but no one wanted to bring any home omg we're such wasters
and then chatted with the bff till now!

surprisingly not that tired but the bed still looks good esp since its right behind me

OH and it is AWESOME having ur own room I LOVE IT
i can actually start learning to cook now i have my own kitchen
i dont have to share a bathroom with 30 other girls
and i get my own TV woohoo! get to decorate, get this nice comfy couch, lots of space etc etc

MISS U PEEPS TOO!

gloria

爱我别走

hey guys
omg i'm super annoyed at my mother right now
supp to go watch dark knight tonight with my family i put off watching it with friends because i wanna save it for my parents
so today i'm finally free and they make themselves free
but i didn't book the tickets online
so when we get there half an hour early we're left with front row tickets
so my mother black face
OK SO I DIDN'T BOOK THE TICKETS ONLINE I FELL ASLEEP AFTER LUNCH AND WOKE UP AT 7.30
but hello i don't think it warrants her being so angry that she is now not talking to me at all
hello we watched 12 lotus instead which me and my dad enjoyed a lot
my mom sat and sulked
seriously omg wtf is wrong with her
i said sorry to her summore and she was like you're not sorry lor i know you don't mean it
uhh yea actually i don't. i rlly dun give a shit if we don't watch dark knight. what happened to family time, seriously. i thought the point was to spend time together, not necessarily watching some dead guy on screen being very good at being creepy.
i bet she is menopausing
i can't wait to leave.

hi wendy. starting from like random musing to the paragraph after i think u perfectly put that same nagging feeling i experience into words! in fact i have been trying to decipher the feeling for quite some time.
and i think it very highly possibly could do with not having a passion because as aimless as my life has been the past few days/weeks/months, i doubt im someone who can live an aimless life. like when i was still fencing i just felt really.......fulfilled. i know its common wisdom to say "oh u have to learn to be satisfied with what u have" etc BUT im also scared if i start thinking that way i'll lose out on what i cld possibly achieve
are we thinking too much or is life really this complicated

yo wow pls do not use this to get me to respond asap.
FACEBOOK, WOMAN.
because i log on 5 times a day. heh.

anw i was in bangkok over the weekend. parents decided to go there instead of hk.

i'm kinda bored with my days now... who wants to sign up for salsa classes with me!

sorry FALSE ALARM!
not going to hk after all...
sorry all who are in hk!

people in hk please drop your guitar heroes and give us a shout-out so we know you're alive

anw MAX are u reading this? are u at work?
i am too lazy to msg u but i got the greenlight from the parents to go to hk!
but booking tics and stuff is a major pain in the ass
after trying to book i dont feel like going anymore :( GAH woah im damn lazy..i think i appreciate my dad more now..he has been planning every single family trip we've had since i was born..and those trips are q convoluted..and we always complain that theyre boring. ahmagad now i understand the amount of blood sweat and tears put into planning those trips. and seeing the prices also --> heartpain

anw... max pls call me if u read this and tell me where you're staying! so i can book (possibly) in the same hotel

on another note, i have spent the entire morning trying to register for fall classes! almost got a heart attack cos i thought the classes would be closed since i ONCE AGAIN was late for my online registration appointment..but it didnt turn out that bad cos i got all the classes i wanted. whew. got placed on the waitlist for a couple of econ ones (which is q strange cos i declared my econ major last spring!) but i think thats bcos they have to manually process the declared majors too. THEYD BETTER...or i cannot get my classes and i dont need to graduate and i'll just become a super senior which really doesnt sound so bad cos i can just bum around school taking PE classes and harrassing the freshies

revival of the bug

hello all i was just reading out archives and i realise that we were really VERY FUNNY wow. but i'm v pissed off because my possessed picture is still up ): you know the one in sec 1. yes but nvm. cos all of us looked bad in some photo in one way or another. haha.

anyway me and brid went for this breakdancing performance on saturday these are the bboys.



haha they are a korean bboy group called 'last for one' apparently really good my new aspiration is to be a bgirl. i will first attempt to master the handstand.

yup this is a v good looking guy:



brid i photoshopped you although you looked really really v v v v nice in this pic but i thought you didn't want to be pu guang. and anyway you used my phone to take this picture so i thought you wanted everyone to see.

and yes i have many other photos of other gabbag members in my phone yall look awesome too.

but yes i'm v sad because i didn't take photo with one of the bboys who was OMG SO EXTREMELY WHOOOT WHOOOOOT is really the WHOOT kind.

and even though the rest looked like korean passerbys but its alright because they were so AWESOME at breakdancing.

yes they are called last4one and this is one of their routines (:

Europe next year?

I know this is probably a longshot but....

Who wants to backpack across Europe with me next June/July for a month?

Estimated cost so far is 4.5k USD, so if you're in... We're gonna have to save up, starting NOW.

ONE MORE PAPER.

14 MORE HOURS.

ZIT WILL BE HERE TOO BY THEN. wHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

yet another message from another director of studies:

Good luck all. Don't let the examiners know whats hit them!

Dr X

honestly, it seems like they think saying "good luck" alone isn enough. hence the need to throw in some random comment.

sigh i dunno wads wrong with me. why do i even think this is mildy amusing. i think studying embryology has got to my brains. the horror begins in 15 hours :( :(:(

Working @ aye-*

super afraid of censorship because we know how power a* is.

anw my lab is... very fun. only wendy will appreciate what i have to say so i will just wait for her to come back then talk about it.

but the gd thing is that it's very informal. not slack, informal. i wear jeans slippers and teeshirt to work. and use msn. as long as what needs to be done is done, they dun really care. i come in at 1030 but i usually only leave at 6 or 630! so babies pls wait for me if we meet for post-work dinner...

which we should do sometime next week! wed night before mambo let's go makan or smtg la.

i'm a bit bored today that's why i'm blogging haha.

anw anw. should i straighten my hair??? a bit leychey every morning must straighten... sian. okok feedback!!

and gloria pls contact me abt flying to hk tgt when u come back... i will org with ching also i thinkkkk.

oh to be hollywood stars

Both actresses Michelle Pfeiffer and Nicole Kidman each bet George Clooney $10,000 that he would be a father before he turned 40.

They were both wrong, and each sent him a cheque for the amount. But he returned the money, betting double or nothing that he won't have kids by age 50.


Gosh. mere mortals like us bet 10 bucks. ppl like them have bets of 10 grand O_o

AND AND AND i am damn pissed with myself cos i missed the chance to actually talk to prince charles. (i know ids not prince william but STILL)

WHY? cos i chose to opt out of this reception where prince charles turned out to be the guest of honour. and he was mingling with everyone during reception. WHAT IS THIS. just when i decide to forgo all my social activities in a bid to study, something like that crops up. ids a joke im telling you. IDS A SAD PATHETIC JOKE. sigh. life. i have nothing to say man.

hello!
within the last month 3 ppl have died near the place where i live

one was a frat boy who got stabbed by a high school student who was drunk
and i dont even know why

another person got shot in BROAD DAYLIGHT in the middle of the road near to where i always eat

and the next day, right next to where he got shot, someone fell of the roof while drunk and died

ARMAGEDDON IS COMING!

i hate karma.

just yst i was thinking to myself- woah not bad my revision seems to be going well. one week more. quite a lot of time. i was feeling so proud of myself somemore.

today- during supervision, i realised why i felt that there is ample time. cos i figured that loads of stuff are not gonna come out anyway so i just choose ignore them. like how i read only 10+ pages out of a 76 pages long lecture notes. BUT i realised in sup today that i actually do need to know at least 60+ pages out of that set. GOOD JOB. and how did i know that? cos we were doing mcqs and they were testing on stuff i have never seen/heard in my life and then my classmates will go "oh ids on the last few pages/ this section/ this chapter of this notes". SHOOT ME. and then i asked them how long did they take to go through the notes, and whether i will have time to go through them, all of them shook their heads and said they took the whole blardy easter hols to go through them. and gave me oh-you-are-so-screwed looks. thankew.

ppl are starting to suffer from nervous breakdowns. one girl broke down in my supervision today. not the incontrollable bawling kind. but the silent sniffling with teardrops falling on notes kind. and since theres only 4 of us in one supervision , it was kinda obvious. i felt so sad for her. sigh. i hate exams.

on a side note my appetite seems to be increasing. whywhywhy. why carn i be one of those girls who refuse to eat when stressed.

Dear Lot

Just to wish you all well as you engage the Examiners in battle.

Remember - read the question, then give the right answer - to the question that's been asked. (fei hua leh)

Good luck

this guy is gonna be my director of studies next year. he has been planning for a post-exam garden party (which will happen when im in singapore damnit) since ages ago. basically hes just mad lar. VERY quirky. this is one of his emails-


Dear Lot

Delighted to say that enough of you have said Yes to make it worth pushing ahead with this.

The details are:

Date 21 June
Time 1200
Place River Court by 'O' Block (i.e. 'The Beach')
Fodder - Pimms, Soft Drinks, Cheese, bread, picky bits, dim sum in warm soysauce.........
Price £5
Dress - the Senior Tutor would prefer us to be dressed - in whatever you like (it's because he comes from Scotland, where it's cold. I'm told it's nothing to do with what the Scots look like undressed).

Stop reading e-mails and get back to work

Best wishes

hello all!
i feel really really touched!
first, wendy called, and max too!
sorry i wasnt able to talk much : finals gah
and i hadnt checked my email at all today but i just did at 4.20 am
cos im still studying! @#$%#@
but then i saw pages and pages of email notifications from fbook of ppl wishing me happy bday!
AH i felt like crying
there were some ppl i barely knew, ppl i havent talked to in yrs, ppl iv known for yrs
i wanted to go hug them all
now i understand why God loved Man so much :)))

max: dont miss **** too much (i hope he doesnt read this haha eh but it doesnt matter right?)
wendy: you'll do awesome and you know it!

it was v funny when wendy called me cos she didnt know the time diff
and she kept calling me at weird times like 5 in the morning
and i would be like omg! calling at this time must be emergency! and then i stumble out of bed
haha and max wanted to tell me to call her back before 7 then she realised i was 2 hrs behind so i would end up calling her after she boarded her plane
time diff is a pain!

FIRST OF ALL ....HAPPY BDAE ONG JIA JIA!!!! have been tryin to call you but i think ur aslp hmm..

ids been like wad... 9 years! woah...haha ok ok heres to more years of friendship ahead! *grins*

anyway. people need tuition teachers. but my request is so much more simpler. i just need someone to kick me out of bed. either that or a huge ass alarm clock that shatters my ear drums everytime it rings.

my "bro" came up to check on me yst. and somehow hearing that he has half the amt of time that i have and twice the amount of papers (with negative marking! ) makes me feel a tad better abt my current dire situation. obviously i wld be in the same situation next year but i will deal with that next year lar. apparently year 2 camb med is in the guiness's book of record for being the course that has the most facts to cram within a year- you learn 20 new words a day on average O_o

HARLOW FRIENDS

im in a biochemistry lab now working on sickle cell anaemia. sounds familiar? boredddd....

actually it is all quite interesting.just that im dying from hunger and i just wanna have FOOD. anyway jia jia i hope you have got out of bed by now:) ok ok i think im making too much noise so i shall resume this post when i get back:)

im trying to break the world record for doing as many things as i can without leaving the bed
ok im not but the way things have been going..i might as well be

so i psyche myself up all week for a crazy ass friday night. my friend is turning 23 tomorrow and we were supposed to go to his place to party and get drunk. the party was good. my friends are there and they're so not in the mood to party. i don't have my usual dancing kaki because one is sick and the other wants to study for finals in A WEEK. HELLO. GOT ALL WEEK PLUS WEEKEND.

i know i'm being a bitch. i'm just being a diva because it has been one MAJOR LETDOWN of a weekend. what the hell man seriously. tomorrow is senior's night and i'm tempted to just say fuck it but i have to go because i'm the mc. fuck it! ANW the sg guys promised that we'll go drink tmr night to make up for the shitty friday night that i have had thus far. tomorrow is the mifflin block party (mifflin is a street in madison) and I AM MISSING IT BECAUSE OF SENIOR'S NIGHT DINNER. fuck it!

this weekend blows.

i mean, if you guys don't want to go out, den tell me from the outset la! don't build me up buttercup just to let me down :(
ARGHAOIWEPFJAS;VLKJWREOUIHFJNGVAIULREWGFADKJAS'DKLFA

whatever.

i can't wait to come home and go clubbing proper with people who actually enjoy clubbing. seriously. i love my friends here, but there're not enough people that i can click with party-wise. seriously. SERIOUSLY. i'm sooo annoyed.

came back and hung out with the boys in my dorm (the non-smelly, non-weird ones) and when my sg friends came over at 2am (someone left their keys with me) one of the weird drunk ones harrassed them and the boys almost beat him up. pissed me off more. arghhhhh. gd thing i watched a chick flick in david's room and unwound a bit over beers. sigh. I'M GG TO BED. ANNOYED. I WANT PANCAKES.

greetings friends !

just wanted to say that i have finally rmbed my bloody blogger password ... and my exams are in 4 days ... OKAY BYE

GUYS GUYS WE WON THE GAP CASE!
omg im so happy!
i was thanking everyone effusively, especially the judges, who were all super super nice
ahhh my first case comp! ah im really happy
today was a good overall yall

hello everyone! today i discovered i had reserves of BS in me i never knew i had

so basically i have to make 2 presentations today
-one for my real estate class
-the other for a GAP case competition

they were both group presentations
and this situation was actually good cos i learnt to delegate instead of trying to control every aspect of the presentation cos there was simply no time to.

ok so the case competition has a $1000 prize for the winning team so obviously i've been working on that more and kinda neglecting my real estate thing which is kinda ok for my teammates cos theyre all lazy too haha

so basically this is how we did the project which is 25% of our grade

we met for one hour before the 1st progress report was due
we were scheduled to meet the day before our 2nd progress report was due but i fell asleep, another girl fell asleep, one guy went to LA and basically we turned in crap

ytd when we met for the last time to work on the final presentation which was TODAY, we had to put that one guy on speakerphone cos he just got back from LA and was at the airport. and i left the meeting at 9 to work on the GAP case HAHA wow so i was like holy crap we are dead

so we all agreed to meet half an hour before class to rehearse for the FIRST time.
and i arrived only 10 minutes before class and we were all scrambling and everyone was like: oh wait whos going to do the conclusion? then they said : oh gloria can do it.

and i accepted cos i felt it was my responsibility since i had been so lazy.

so i walk into class right and HOLY SHIT the first grp blew me away. i was like: am i sitting in class or an actual boardroom? they were superrrrr good, professional and everything and there we were not even knowing who came after who in the presentation

so basically i made up the conclusion while i was sitting there in class and about 5 mins before we were scheduled to talk

but DUUUUUUUDEEEE i donno why, for some reason, i actually enjoyed being up there.
i was on a roll baby! hahah i really BS-ed my way through and i talked about mortgages like i actually knew what i was talking about. and then i just threw me self-made conclusion out there

later as we were getting our grades my prof was like oh the conclusion and mortgage discussion were excellent

DO U KNOW HOW EMPOWERING THAT FEELS wow i shall go be a professional public speaker now

ok but the really tough part comes now --> GAP case in 3 hours! wish me luck guys! we're up against some strong competition!!

first of all, ILU leeying! ur mail made my day really. esp since i have been trying to %$%^^%^$ figure out how to go about studying the %$%%^ lower limb. and not that im not heeding ur advice, it is just that i read ur mail today. and the pic was taken last night. so you see, i got respect u k. haha singlish man.

newae yst i went to ta bouche to celebrate my friend's bdae. dunno why but i feel so...old. since when do friends celebrate bdaes by drinking the no of shots that reflect their age. HEHE ok tt sounded weird esp if you think about us celebrating our bdaes when we are 80. ok not funny. but yar that woman drank 21 shots last night. what happened to the good old gathering where yummy food is being consumed and the highlight of the night would be the cake/ dessert and a good old bdae song. sigh. i dun wanna grow up. and i also dun wanna deal with lower limb. actually there are a lot of stuff i dun wanna do. SIAN. ids like everyone here has finished running the 2.4 when i just figured out how to tie my shoelaces. you just look at those ppl panting away and u dun even cry. u laugh cos the disparity is so ridiculous. sigh. ok im not exactly laughing. but you get the idea.

ok ok back to mugging.
