retail therapy <3

satisfied with my new dress (:

haven't been actively studying for risk...

it's so boring that i actually offered to go out grocery shopping with my mum when i usually do not (step out of my house).

2 new sites that warrant some interest:

ohvola and agneselle.

more partial towards ohvola. they had this awesome black dress which has since sold out...d'no if there'll be a backorder.

looking forward to xmas! will be seeing anesea after a long time (:

although i'm supposed to be on diet, i'm thinking of having good food. haha.

diet officially starts tomorrow anyway; i can still legally harbor such sinful thoughts.

is 311 bad? scary.

NEEDS

1) decent pair of wedges

2) decent pair of chunky heels/booties

3) gel liner - i suppose all gel liners can do the job regardless of whether they're from kate or coastal scents or maybelline.

4) a 3/4-sleeved dress in lace or stripes

5) to diet

6) to get organised

7) to study

8) to get her priorities right (:

seriously needs to diet.
awful.

risk tolerance low.

random sos

oh gosh, somebody inspire me to study please!

from 9 1/4 days (...) to 5 days!

i just feel so blah for risk; as if there's nothing to study!

i would think with my gpa so chui, i'd be motivated to make risk antidilutive.

guess not.

on a sidenote,

i love zooey deschanel's look!

4th december: date with florals alright?

(:

let's go somewhere nice!

shingz

managed to do 2 of my hobbies at the same time - laugh and cry.

i'm quite sure i've gotten abit crazy... not even sure why i'm crying when i was kinda amused :/

needs to learn to apologise.

sorry really is the hardest word. i feel bad but i just cannot get myself to say sorry :/

feels kinda unlucky.

interviews clashed. now, stars is joining in the party too.

:/

with 2 cores... it still feels scary.

imagine 4-day week with 2-hour days when you don't stay in hall. it's quite wtf *inserts angry emoticon* you'll feel like i must as well not go to school - it's 2 freakin' hours.

:/

will probably know 311 grades soon. i know my ethics essay chuied. did it in a primary school style while everyone was quoting ccg, kantian (or whatever) theories, and other cheemology stuff. shingz la. simple-minded people just can't fight with the world. i think i'd feel awful if 311 proved dilutive as well.

:/

feels like my risk appetite is quite high - not actively studying for risk at all.

doesn't even know where to start or how, for that matter.

it's like 301, gv... it's quite clear what to do but risk... somehow i guess i've lost the momentum. loser. :/

what i do know is it's a waste of time to bother about uninteresting people. especially when they have nothing to offer you.

if say, it's a networking session and the conversation is awful but you need it, you'll try harder right? sorry for being so pragmatic (is that the correct word to use here?) but everyone's like that.

if conversation = a struggle to find common ground and coming up with naught, then why the hell must we even try? such a pain, not to mention how clear it is that we both could be doing more important things i.e. more engaging conversations, with other people.

sometimes it's interesting to overstep boundaries a little just to see what makes people tick. i like "interviewing" people i don't really know just to find out more about them. obviously not everyone *like duh* i must at least feel curious about you otherwise why bother?

please stop wondering how much is your residual value.

seriously.

and please please don't think of me as a pragmatic bitch. i know i am but you are not allowed to judge.

peace.

Nokia Fugue

Credits to zeryx28

The fugue uses the 4-bar Nokia tune as its main theme.

Video was previously posted and found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1isQlg6VGU&feature=player_embedded#

Score can be found here http://www.audiomuse.ca/doc/pdf/lo_nokia_fugue_v2a.pdf

I feel like challenging myself haha (:

needs to snooze

"Yeah the bad boys are always catching my eye
I said the bad boys are always spinning my mind
Even though I know they're no good for me
It's the risk I take for the chemistry"

- HIGH RISK APPETITE!

- wonder if risk tolerance is as high too?

SEE! RISK IS USEFUL - can make good risk jokes.

an interesting question would be to apply risk management concepts you've learnt to your daily life.

what can YOU come up with?

:D silly!

the people who can come up with (in order to score for risk, please do not use this phrase in your project) clever responses to my 'academic-related' jokes or inspire me to think of more (you know who you are!) - awesome!

i don't know when i started diluting my language skills and peppering my speech with dialect and other miscellaneous expressions but i suppose it was just the insidious bugissreetlian persona creeping up on me and gradually overriding the atas bitch persona.

jerome says i come across as atas and serious. ETC.

(his initial quote was jerome says he is cute.)

SEE! the same old problem - the brick wall effect. seriously, i don't think i am like, up THERE. obviously if people are making it hard for me to come down to their level, then i would just come across as being up there, unapproachable, haolian etc.

1 goes down down down down downnnnn (like the economy. like, WHATTT?) while the other is slowly going up.

hmmm.

i am gonna track this newest development.

bitching (cuz' i'm hungryyyyyy!)

it's a tad overdue but it SHALL see the light of day:

i marvel at people who try to incorporate most/all of 2009's trends into their 1 outfit.

i looked at her and i could list out what's in, what was in and what needs to be in.

HAHA.

she had like 4 trends on her and it was just too much of an overdose. it was trying too hard.

obviously i can't say WHAT exactly; it would be TOO much of a giveaway.

to complete that outfit, i think you need leopard prints. or zebra... i suppose that might work too.

JS - Officially Missing You - Tamia (cover)

harmonisation rocks!

future love

love this song by kristinia debarge (:

and alexandra burke's bad boys (:

heard them on the way to 301 exam and promptly made a mental post-it note!

feels inspired to learn already gone - kelly clarkson. the piano version is pretty good.

gv was quite shingz. a few wrong answers here and there AND essentially smoked my way through for my essays. while others, in their font 12 tahoma (oops they didn't have tahoma as an option) handwriting wrote like concise answers, i wrote a bedtime story.

(random: pretty cool to have a font named after you, isn't it?)

stuff that i didn't remember hearing (BUT WAS SAID) ... GG.

3 elements of vocal health, anyone? i was there for the lesson but didn't jot down anything related. i read my notes like a zillion times (lie.) and didn't see anything about it.

*shingzified!*

oh well, didn't expect full marks anyway; the days of achieving full marks are officially over.

left after setting up a positive thought pattern: knn. just true or false. even if wrong, also lose 1 mark. get the hell outta here already!

if it's an absolute grade then... WHAT THE HELL IS MEANT BY THAT ANYWAY?

why aren't we told what's the minimum mark for an A or something then?

if it depends on how the cohort does, then isn't that a bell curve?

*confused*

ANYWAY, the real reason why i didn't leave earlier was because i had to pick a good time (not too early nor too late) to meet jars (:

if i left too early and she wasn't done for her forensics, then i'd be like... a lost soul right?

if i'm too late then she'll have to wait for me if she's early right?

HENCE the best bet would be somewhere near the 'you have 15 minutes left. do not leave the examination hall...' part. AND good timing indeed!

we ended at literally the same time. close.

amazing race!

pitstop: lyn's house.

first team at the pitstop gets f21 clothes!

we would make really lousy contestants.

(is it .. detour or roadblock that both members of the team must complete the task?)

spent a good amount of time deciding which busstop to head to.

spent more time deciding which bus to take.

sharp-eyed jars eventually spotted 410. good job, baby!

spent some time finding the relevant stairs.

despite feeling a tinge of regret over my wonky hairband (which surprised me with a leopard print ribbon woven into the braid) i conclude it looks nice when worn.

excited for the rest of the stuff!

my brother feels he would make a lousy contestant too. he'd probably do well for all the tasks but if the last task required swallowing a pill or something like that, he'd probably go from first to last. the good audience would probably be cursing/laughing so hard at that - omg swallow the damn thing!!

oos for my bc stuff! backorders...

excessive cashflows... probably will end up hit by remorse and regret afterwards.

f21 & vocal health. NO LINK.

photos from forever21's newest collection.

like the first outfit!

sorry random. and haven't studied.

and just discovered i have a sore throat.

while reading on vocal health. JOKE.

link here: http://www.ncvs.org/e-learning/faqs.html

here's the essential ones:

1) if you have a sore throat, don't whisper!

instead, use your normal voice quietly because: "whispering can alter the manner in which your vocal folds come together, often compressing the vocal folds in the middle where your tissue is most likely to swell when you are sick."

but of course, less talking is still the most effective.

2) "some actresses are known for their low-pitched and slightly hoarse vocal quality and want to maintain this quality. this kind of chronic hoarseness or a gravelly-sounding voice quality is often an indication of chronic abuse and/or the presence of a vocal fold mass(es) like a polyp or vocal fold nodules."

- direct quote from website. sounds scary. things growing in your vocal fold :(

3) clearing your throat too much is BAD.

the action grinds "the vibratory edge of each vocal fold against the other causing swelling and irritation of the vocal fold in the middle of the vibratory edge. this edge hits first before any other part of the vocal fold. chronic irrtation and swelling in this area can lead to the formation of vocal fold masses such as nodules."

things growing in my vocal fold again!!! shingz, i must stop clearing my throat.

AHEM..oops i did it again...

p.s HEY FRIENDS! *looks friendly* we should hang out more cuz' GRACE, NAT and I feel that our group is kinda saaad in the sense that we always rush off to do our own stuff and rarely... hang out :(

SOOOOO YEAAAA... we totally should have more outings...or something.

301 was hideous.

*feels mega depressed*

At least I didn't go home to cry i.e. 202 (when I pressed calculator wrongly in utter stupidity)

I like all these but obviously, I can't get everything. Advice please!

Back to studying GV.

I feel like I've lost or simply maxed out my absorptive capacity.

Remember back in sec sch/jc, we could retain textbooks/pages full of knowledge! Like, KAMIEN! Which was so freakin' thick. If you've seen Scott, Kamien is that thick (and then some). History notes too! Bio? Social Studies? Geog? Almost everything actually.

Now, it's simply a couple of skimpy notes with a couple of random lines (some with bad grammar!) and nothing is going into my head :(

As awful as 301. HATE BONDS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

AND... I can't even think of good 'jokes' for GV.

For 301, you can talk about people/things having residual income VALUE [ODed on residual income model] and whether they have been subjected to impairments hence prompting revaluations. Intrinsic value of GPA (5.0 - currently undervalued)! Dilutive effect on CGPA (still dilutive)! Marking to market/model of bedtimes and revisions!

How useful!

3 more!

3 more chapters to read before moving on to the next step in my STRATEGY.

sjp.

2 days for practice. not substantial but beggars can't be choosers.

so there.

1... i don't know what but since i have 3 and 2, 1 should follow.

aiight.

somehow i think they would make quite an interesting couple.

despite her saying attraction factor zilch but let's just say, there's a possibility... should be quite cute. opposites attract, if it's true.

i quite like her though; i find her sincere. not that i'm competing with him of course.

random aside: some songs are horrible! how did they make it onto the top 10 charts?

hates lost mails as much as getting no replies.

what is it with people not replying my mails!

alright, i hate having things out of my control too. I.E. i can't physically make you reply my mails.

*annoyed*

secretly hate me for rescheduling interview, asking for address, giving address details.

study!

p.s. ok fine, end of sem then no longer friends then. some people are so fake.

strategies that work

i really feel like getting this dress!!

love formal-ish dresses (:

...that make people ask 'you have presentation today huh?'

do you realise you've been asking this weekly? is it possible?

RANDOM BIT OF INFO: bonitochico is hiring .. or rather Velda is. for more info, check out her blog HERE.

i've done what i set out to do AND THEN SOME.

*inserts the smug look emoticon*

though (it's true!) i am quite slow.

left with readings for sems 1-4 comprisingly largely of scott and some phbp.

dreary days! allergic to reading.

haven't done tutorials yet.

don't judge me!

i know i'm evil.

which is why i'm judging YOU, not for your abilities in whatever academic aspect but rather, your grammar skills (or lack thereof).

seriously.

when you're telling people not to judge you (like what i've been doing all this while), at least learn to spell.

if you can't spell, people are judging you while reading the "please don't judge me" pleas.

hit with a sudden bitchy thought:

you should only compete in an industry if you have a competitive advantage; a differentiating factor.

for some, it could be intelligence, musical talent, outspokenness, a sense of humor perhaps? how about dropdeadgorgeousness? wealth even. and of course, *inserts bitchy look emoticon* sluttiness works too!

i mean, it IS a point of differentiation, isn't it?

if you can say, "in this class/school, i wear the sluttiest clothes. try to top that!"

no one will probably dare to one-up you due to the constraints that we all operate in.

so yea, it could be a sustainable advantage. point to you (:

and furthermore, there's brand creation too. when you walk past, we go "hey look! it's slut! boomz"

brand recognition too!

how's that for successful differentiation?

back to 301.

but before i end off,

Matthew Perry's quote : "I set my alarm for 4 o'clock in the morning to say something sarcastic and then go back to sleep."

NO, i don't set my alarm for (whatever time) to say something bitchy and then go back to (sleep/whatever i'm doing).

it was just a random quote.

which i remembered from ST years ago. YEARS, no kidding.

oh..another random comment:

i don't understand why people, who went to SAP schools, try to play down their ability in chinese. obviously you would have taken higher chinese and even if you suck at speaking it, you should be able to read/write/understand it, no?

hence, i find it kinda annoying that people go "oh i can't READ that!" when it's like, basic words that you should know.

WHAT?

you think people will judge you for being effectively bilingual?

you're afraid your target audience might not like you cuz' their chinese is shingz?

you're embarrassed you can actually read those words?

seriously. wtf.

i'm happy to tell people i'm effectively bilingual. well now, i'm quite sure i got an A for my teochew too just that cambridge forgot to mark. pretty much like ash and her hokkien.

are you judging me here?

just to prove how much i think of things.

here's my take on the difference between bitching about someone and judging them.

when you bitch, it's based on a fact which you've identified about someone but because you dislike them, you advertise it negatively.

e.g. person went to a SAP school, took higher chinese and claims he/she can't read chinese at all??? I'M SURE LAHH. *inserts shocked emoticon*

otoh, judging is making assumptions (can be true/false) about someone and expecting them to conform to those assumptions; feeling disappointed in them (whether expressed or not) because they don't meet said assumptions.

e.g. i thought she'll be a nice person but she's always bitching about someone. really, it's not in line with her character or behavior at all. what a horrible, sneaky, fake bitch.

THANKS. continue judging.

Mazel tov!

in case anyone's looking for a mario badescu spree.

drying lotion is the bomb. you can't go wrong with it seriously.

i would definitely recommend it but it's weird to suddenly recommend it.

awkward.

ok...

i feel totally productive today!

managed to study without

1) wandering around

2) asking for hugs/being a baby

3) singing

4) playing the piano

5) msning

6) sleeping

5 - because the person who disturbs me most is right opposite me hence eliminating the need to go online.

and manages to disturb me too by making me laugh. once i laugh, i cannot stop. (quite scared to laugh in class, *prays tutors/classmates don't be funny* - i might not stop laughing. random)

fabulous dinner! cheesemushroomschickenbaconfries (: most of my favourite things in a plate (:

jason is amazing la. one more reason to 'fan' him.

totally bottomless pit -___- 2 rounds. goshhh. luckily he has the financial ability to support such an appetite. at least i think so la. HAHA.

probably secretly hates me more now.

p.s i don't think you're a joke or 拿你当笑柄. sincerely don't think so. though you make me laugh and saying those things made me laugh too.

tired.

p.p.s instant chrysanthemum tea is nice (:

sia lah! STUDDDYYY

Nokia Fugue (Op. 31)

Incorporates the familiar four-bar phrase used in Nokia ringtones into a fugue. really pretty cool :)
Fugues are pretty challenging - you have to remember to keep all the voices distinct but not overpower the main voice. people like me, get confused and finger-tied.
MEP lessons - ALWAYS cannot identify the main melody. i am seriously quite musically challenged.

Sem14: Valuation

That's where I am now.

As you can see, my progress is severely abyssmal. 301 paper's on 23rd and with 21 sems to cover, I'm languishing quite a fair bit behind.

I don't understand how people manage to stay bright-eyed awake when faced with the snoozefest that is 301.

Have been indulging in Amazing Race eps. Probably explains why I'm so slow.

Hmmm. Amazing Race is the ONLY thing I watch :)

I'm really glad for the people in my life who constantly check on me, check on what I'm doing, check on my revision and the like.

I don't know 'bout you guys but I won't feel annoyed. Au contraire, I feel like I'm not alone in whatever daunting task I'm faced with.

:/

Wish it could inspire me to work hard too.

It's the end of the sem right? Some people stay and some leave.

Of course I'm quite disappointed at some progressions but WELL I'm quite used to such things and seriously, disappointment shouldn't be wasted on such petty issues.

Unless you're prepared to do something about it, if not, move on, move along.

Valuing relationships.

How?

Can you attach a value to each and every one of them?

But obviously you know some mean more to you than others.

Giggling like primary school girls. Nice.

It's girls like that who make me freakin' envious/jealous.

HOWEVER, unlike some who simply emit negative vibes and nothing more, I believe she is a nice person. Nice and friendly hence apart from the envy/jealousy, I'm quite alright with her. I mean, if she were my friend, I'd feel happy for her...that kinda thing.

You know how some girls start off looking really proper and classy but somehow end up slacking off midway and coming across really irritating/slutty.

I totally hate those girls. I thought you'd have more substance in you.

All packaging and no substance.

There's 1 very good example if we're talking about substance as in a good heart/character.

The one with the chalky foundation of course.

anywhere but here

oh no.

15 Things You Should Know About Coffee!

CHECK OUT: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/coffee

CUTE!

(:

Includes:

• In 1675, the King of England banned coffee houses, claiming they were places where people met to conspire against him.
• Coffee is the 2nd most traded commodity on earth. Oil is the first. Clearly humanity has a thing for black drippy liquids.
• George Washington invented instant coffee! A Belgian man living in Guatemala by the name of George Washington invented it in 1906.

i never knew wantanmee could play the guitar!

ups!

all that time skipping lessons to stay in the choir room probably proved productive.

random fact: James Barnes' Alvamar Overture was completed in 3 days.

gleaned off Ben Yeo's fb.

we took a few months (possibly) to compose our music for mep's higher music component.

even then, it was quite bad. many of us used atonality and 20th century influences (think Berg, Schoenberg and Webern) as excuses haha.

p.s. I REALLY WANNA PICK UP GUITAR!

i have one at home and its fate shouldn't be just to sit around collecting dust.

i shall do this after the exams. attempt to teach myself, that is.. for the 2nd time.

wols

i'm really slow in doing many things and STUDYING is one of them (apart from eating, showering, writing essays, waking up, getting in and out of cars etc.)

*such severe slowness*

although i've read my sem notes and tutorials but i have barely touched my text.

sorry ah, prof chiong :(

*my friend says prof chiong = dean's list. withhold info!! his good friend is confirmed dean's list though ... ups.*

which prompts me to ask... do birds of a feather truly flock together?

in some cases, YES i.e. ginny's group = all clever/1st class & Viiiiiiii = all clever/1st class.

and of course, there are cliques which have the mugger vibe, 6677 vibe, party vibe etc.

some groups even have the same fashion sense!

[i really don't mean our color-coded SHE outfits last sem.]

i don't mind doing it again though. it's fun AND FUNNY especially in lectures (which is the important part).

i really enjoy funny stuff.

hence, i decided to post our kbox cover of 以父之名 though we didn't do it justice. sorry jay chou (uh sorry jars. i know you like him)

it makes me LOL = HAPPY!

and Operation Crescendo!

ups! good stuff :D

check out the videos here!

there is a gv17 group so go join it if you haven't already.

(wouldn't have known if not for mingwei. withhold info!)

back to 301.

been sleeping waaaaay too much.

shingz.

sheer frivolity

been spamming playlist with frivolous music HAHA!

miss kbox sessions with ling (:

all those 'i think you have a jazz voice' = ALL FAKE ONE LAH.

i'm totally into nonsensical songs - the crappier the better (says ling)

and totally capable of an irritating screechy voice.

it's not even a secret interest anymore.

and sorry for the bad harmonisation. we never ever rehearsed so everything's just spontaneous. if in tune, good. if not, better luck next time.

back to 301!

SHOES! advice please

photos from tracyeinny

i really feel like getting either pair!

tell me is it the heels or the pumps?

heels cost $28 and pumps $26.

random musing

i guess you're right to say it's largely due to the different image projected.

somehow i feel there are some people with charisma who just, very easily, capture the attention of their audience never mind that whatever they're saying might not exactly be the most fantastic thing in the world.

seriously, not zai but admittedly, the seh is there.

we would definitely have been failed but then again i remember what yiting said about theirs being very unelitist.

i like laughing; i enjoy humor.

jules likes that.

alot. x infinity!

is it weird to say 'x infinity'?

pronounced 'times infinity' not 'X infinity' by the way.

we coined it back in jc because birdface was simply off the charts by virtue of the fact that firstly, birdface. need i say more? secondly, he offended us.

typical of girls' sch/ij girls, we rated alot of things. and birdface was simply negative x infinity.

some people emit good vibes simply from their looks alone HAHA.

like, straightaway you will assume that he/she is KIND and helpful and...NICE.

while others, might be smiling/friendly etc, BUT you just know that they are being fake = negative vibes (x infinity).

and some, you don't even have to feel the vibes, you just see their face and sjp, dislike straightaway. edventure = X out people that you don't like because you see the photo and think this person looks jian.

(and ok fine, you can help them draw bars over their photos because 'look like whattttt!!!' go ahead)

i am waaay tickled by 'him and his dull blue polo tee'.

damn funny la!

you know how guys like to wear the same shirts/tees repeatedly?

UNIFORM HUH?

commented to someone (i forgot who), perhaps he bought in bulk to reap economies of scale?

or he only looks good in one color/utmost favourite color hence everything must be in that color?

at least polo tee is one level up from the same crappy tee right? assuming that both have been washed many times and hence, slightly faded (LOL)... *coughyouknowwhocough*

and today tong (good job friend!) again singled out another guy for wearing uniform. LOL.

i mean, for girls, it's abit harder to tell cuz' i suppose we have more clothes and at least we, by and large, don't attempt to reap economies of scale...

but guys, it gets quite obvious and even if it's not exactly the same, people might still get the wrong idea. and if you wore it to the same class within a week, *darkly* you didn't change, did you?

back to 301.

i feel sleepy and feeling like i need to eat something.

when it rains, it pours

it seems that it's finally stopped raining.

a good thing too; today's been nothing but rain and more RAIN.

very nice. not.

probably nice for people at home, away from it all and thinking 'such lovely weather'...hopefully FOR MUGGING and not sleeping.

started off the day at can a at an ungodly 8 am.

it was cold and the air felt clammy and dgt.

pretended to be mugging because i had no one to bother.

started POURING thus..

getting wet x1.

getting wet x2.

getting pissed x infinity.

i feel bad bitching about someone who is probably nice but inherently annoying.

how do these 2 traits fit together? no idea but they do, in a sneaky way that only sensitive people like tong and i can detect.

it's like every time one or the other appears, we'll be like *rolls eyes* + choice expressions and sign language courtesy of tong and comments from me.

you need to gluegun that; too distracting.

gives people abit too much hope.

you know, SOME people.

and essentially, now we ALL know.

*rolls eyes*

such class. indeed indeed.

very attractive by the way. NOT *just in case you didn't catch the sarcasm*

i would feel like i just said something stupid hence i get no reply?

how does a taste of your own medicine feel like?

and that person, you haven't changed at all. how disappointing.

and what's disappointing for you should be that i'm not so dumb as to share whatever good stuff i have just because you ask.

i mean puhleese, if i need help and you don't help me, then i'm not gonna help you. it makes me happier and better off if you do badly. hence, applying the utilitarian rule, you should do badly and let the rest of us leverage on your downfall.

thanks in advance!

3% matching.

it should be because it's too sec sch level and hence nobody writes like me.

beyond sucky/shingzy. totally.

such pressure :/

now i have to one-up her with...1.5L or better yet, a whole carton.

shingz.

that woman ah...totally don't like!!!!!!

wm came up with a lame joke.

today's fri the 13th so tonight, jason's gonna be out and about.

mw totally didn't get it.

i LOLed and LOLed somemore. damn unglam.

gone are the act demure days - must use hand cover mouth when smiling and cannot laugh too loudly either.

now, totally heck. unglam then unglam la. like, nobody really cares and nobody to care about.

and i just realised my english is horrible.

SOMEONE's bad influence.

like with some people, you feel shy to type with bad grammar or use gay emoticons right? RIIIIGHT?

then with others, you feel it's completely ok cuz' they don't seem like they'll judge you i.e. "this woman is so childish! how can she use emoticons??? her english is so baaaad!" BUT i really feel that words aren't expressive enough and i've got to throw in the eyebrowsspasm emoticon and the sly hehheh one.

all the stupid/xiaogay stuff and powderfulll engrrrish. the person that i actively use 'sia lah' with... such bad influence. totally cannot tell. always thought he's damn zai and can only speak good english.

:/

people who are effectively bilingual deserves my respect HAHA cuz' you don't find too many of them. alot of jiak kan dang or overly cheena people. i mean you can write in both languages but you're not very good at either.

*shrugs* sorry ah. not a personal attack.

if you have a fan page, i would definitely 'FAN' you.

help you create one perhaps? HAHA confirmed alot of fans!

you know how some people just go around fb 'like-ing' stuff?

guilty too la. pip say bring laptop for 311. i liked it.

athene's photo with misc people in the background; i also liked it due to peer influence.

:/

and that day zesiaoing shawn about LIKE-ing his shawn and X are now friends updates.

sorry cheryl; yours was right at the top.

i was gonna like it then i thought, nah it'll be too awkward.

can fight with nick dreamer totally.

awesome stuff.

check out hitmanbreakeroftheye already if you haven't.

i really like that 无奈 expression completely with shrug because he found halo's opening music too long.

PRICELESS!

almost as good as the mariah carey's touch my body with a british accent. LOLed for quite abit and rewound a coupla times.

gonna study tonight! although i feel quite bad today but dwelling on it is not gonna change anything. and though i sincerely feel bad, people will probably interpret it as the bitch is pretending to feel bad; hate her even more.

hence.. resigned to fate and shall commence on 301.

my parents used to monitor my revision. now, jason's the one asking me what have i done for the day. must report to him. and ok, it might make me work abit more to avoid him JUDGING me - knew it! useless, inefficient bitch!

printed cobit (or so i think..) and the kpmg thing for risk.

shingz totally.

ber says can don't print; she only brought coso.

but i d'no. maybe i should print everything but i'll feel like so many trees are suffering cuz of kiasi people like me who print and then don't read. wasted.

maybe i should go live in fal. i like their printers. so efficient and fast!!!

at home, i've gotta turn my papers one by one to print doublesided. i feel it's bad karma to print single side!! kill trees again!

A Moving Story

jules promptly cried/teared when she saw this.
typical.
she cries at everything; it's almost a hobby - this crying business.
thanks chiong; can mug 301 and be an active fb-user at the same time. ups!

scenario analyses for cgpa

obviously i will feel ashamed to put my results here.

but well,

- the realistic scenario pulls down my current cgpa.

shingz totally. cannot be employed anymore.

- the 1 mod hopeful scenario keeps my current cgpa the same.

shingz x2. still not employable.

- the 2 mods hopeful scenario raises my current cgpa by like 0.2.

shingz x3. still not quite there.

- the overly optimistic scenario just manages to achieve my goal.

shingz x infinity. it IS overly optimistic and knowing myself, i am nowhere near to achieving those grades.

risk appetite not too high.

risk tolerance not too high as well.

sad.

at least i have a goal and i will try.

i'm proud of myself! i've completed all my assigned tasks and it's still bright (:

gonna do some gv blanks research now.

s'later.

miss congeniality: ris low

Ris Low in her latest interview HERE.

Why are these 2 photos in the same gallery? How evil.

you can't deny she is extremely quote-worthy.

Choice snippets:

Has fame been a dream or nightmare for you so far?

It's been a dream, a fabulous dream. It's like being in wonderland, people recognize you and you get freebies...

But surely it hasn't all been smooth-sailing? You have been getting your fair share of flak and criticism ...

(interrupts) No, I take everything with a pinch of salt. So it's just been a dream to me, even the bad parts.

[probably getting freebies is worth it; getting recognised is boomz.. who cares whether it's good or bad?]

Some people say that you don't know what you're doing and have dragged our country's reputation down with you. What do you have to say to these people?

...You're just somebody behind a computer, a nerd wearing specs, typing away. Just a coward.

[TOTALLY. journalists and social commentators too. you're all cowardly nerds because you use a computer and type.]

So are you going to get into the habit of coining new words?

Ya, I can start a Ris Low dictionary anytime. (smiles) Because I'm always into new words, and I like coming up with new ways of expressing myself through different sounds. I base them on sounds la, don't really think there're words actually.

[you'd buy her dictionary? and let her earn royalties? i don't think so. wow, onomatopoeia! secret talent.]

City Plaza? Eh isn't that where all the aunties do their shopping?

No. (shakes head disapprovingly) ... the clothes are so trashy. And I like trashy clothes.

[that's good to know. jeans+rad hot bikini (for orchard road) = trashy. leopard/zipbra prints = trashy too. blogshops get clothes from city plaza = secretly trashy too.]

So what's the trashiest outfit that you have?

It's all furry, mid-riff and comes with a short skirt.

[does it have leopard prints on it?]

MOST IMPORTANTLY,

people who comment in her defense and call everyone else with any semblance of a negative comment 'haters', i think you're seriously missing the point here.

i'm quite sure your children might turn out quite badly - misbehaving in public BECAUSE mum/dad says that it is OKAY; i have the guts to do it so if you don't dare to tell me off, then you can't think negative things about me.

YEA. you guys are the boomz. totally.

it's precisely because of such misguided people who condone bad behavior that you get such ridiculous antics.

hilarious! me singing im yours by jason mraz

did he say 'but you're so fat that i melted?'
WTF TOTALLY ROFLLLL x infinity

me singing touch my body by mariah carey

THIS IS CRAZILY FUNNY!
HEY YITING, THIS IS FOR YOU :) more tuts my barreh nonsense which you like right. totally!

AJ Rafael's Showstopper Cover by Alyssa Bernal

Melissa Polinar "One of A Kind" (original)

another original composition from the talented melissa polinar

awwwwwww!

you know when women go AWWWW over cute babies?

i feel the same for these babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

they're so precious i could cry.

(((((((((((:

i don't watch this (but my parents thought it was funny so i might eventually get around to it) BUT i thought the puppy was sooooooooooo cuteeeee!!

BABYYYYYY!!!

they call me quiet girl but i'm a riot!

i've got ethics essay (to agonise over... whether to hand in a sub-standard piece of nonsense for 10% or to rewrite it) and cesim lined up HENCE this will just be

UPDATES

1. clever bitch! to get shortlisted for pwc.

p.s. i sincerely feel pa shortlistees are not counted. maybe cuz i hate one of them freakin' alot.

p.p.s i meant bitch in a good way. i'm happy for you!

2. i'm secretly happy that slut didn't get shortlisted for pwc. HAHA. she thinks other firms are WAAAAY beneath her expected 1st class.

bitch.

p.s. it's not a secret anymore.

p.p.s i meant bitch in a not good way.

3. there are some people who are surprisingly clever! 深藏不漏!

or maybe they just look stupid.

i d'no.

but the good people, CONGRATS!

4. what the hell is hand-in 1? why am i getting a grade for something i don't even remember doing? did i not come? and if so, why did no one tell me "hey we had an inclass assignment today?" if we did not have one, why do we get a bad grade by default?

5. that is surprising. i would think they, being zai, would be definite shoo-ins. i mean, considering crappy people are considered too i.e. myself.

maybe they have secret/private interviews which the rest of us don't know about.

6. why do people like to ask wtf questions?

makes me think of the smu clip where person tells group "YOU ARE WRONG.. blahblahblah says" and group has thought bubbles going "WTF... WTF... WTFFFFF."

7. bonitochico has a nice h&m inspired bomber jacket! $30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*tempted*

8. perhaps honesty/ethical is not the way to go. perhaps resourcefulness is.

cheat and not be caught cheating and look zai after cheating vs. refuse answers, struggle on your own and look chui for not cheating.

times have changed.

9. i think some people have the "TALK TO ME, i'm friendly" vibe while others radiate pure iciness "STAY AWAY, i bite".

guess which one am i?

here's a modification i feel is pretty apt too (for some people) - "TALK TO ME, i'm slutty!"

*rolls eyes* see your slutty face/clothes, enough.

i don't get it; i have never felt the compelling urge to TALK TO YOU! cuz first impression - i hated your face.

10. Ctrl+F function is the bomb!

aunties are very kpo what. cannot ah? i don't believe you don't secretly ctrl+F too.

i can't stand people who admonish people for doing supposedly unethical/kpo stuff when they secretly do it themselves. *rolls eyes at you* losers.

11. baby's back and didn't lose its memory.

THANK GOODNESS!

12. too bad. you should have been kept in your place a long time ago. i am secretly happy at this.

13. i know i'm gonna run up a lot of bad karma for having such mean thoughts. but at least you know i have mean thoughts..unlike sneaky people who pretend to be the epitome of saintliness when they're actually hoping you'd screw up.

if you're not sincere, you shouldn't say it.

i tell people things because i really thought that way. so what if i'm wrong, i really had that impression so i'm telling you.

if i didn't give it much thought, i'd just be like, mmmm... d'no. don't worry. *shrugs* i mean, what do you expect? obviously if:

i didn't think--> i forgot--> i can't give advice--> i can't make you feel better with THE truth--> everyone tries to make people feel better about themselves.

do you know it's bad to lie? unless it's a joke then ok you can be like YEA awesome then laugh about it afterwards. and seriously, can't you tell when i'm suanning you? i mean, i feel i'm very obvious -it's like the obvious version of arm-chior y'know? so if you missed that and then think i'm fake, you're retarded.

14. if i don't help myself, who would.

correction.

i feel that God has helped me so i should do the rest myself. it doesn't make sense for me to destroy my own future just to rebel against... whatever.

15. communication breakdown might cause you to look.. inconsiderate.

especially those due to language barriers. tio stun!

either you knew or you didn't; that's why you asked "What are you laughing at?"

at y'all, obviously.

还真的有点笨.

could you read that? i'm kind; i'll translate - you're really kinda stupid.

there you go. saved you the trouble of altavistababelfish-ing it.

16. i'm still in the midst of deciphering what's so amazing about this person.

true, sometimes i feel the amazing-ness too. but it's all in the mind.

with reality, it all comes crashing down with 'wtf? ERMMM.'

seriously, the industry is NOT attractive at alllllllll. sia lah, wake up your idea!

WORK WORK WORK!
