    GRRR
    *Someone* showed me this url leading to a facebook group that talks about students wearing SP T-shirts in NP campus.

    http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=90931563289&ref=nf

    Its like, SERIOUSLY... what's up with them?!?!

    Not that I am on SP side just because I am one of their students (I don't usually wear SP shirts myself in campus btw), but I don't think it is wrong to actually wear it. Come on, it's only a T-shirt!

    And what adds insult to injury is the ATTITUDE that NP students are showing towards SP's T-shirts. There were rude and biased comments such as criticizing the ugliness and "value" of SP T-shirts.
    Gosh, it depends on different individual! What right do they have in criticizing our T shirts just because they themselves don't like the idea of wearing them? Well, they can just mind their own businesses.

    So you despise our shirts and people who wear them- just because you aren't from the school?
    Shame on you.

    You got in to your choice of school based on your "O level" results, and its just your fate that you managed to get into your designated school. If you were allocated to SP in the first place, will you still give us this kind of treatment like you do now? You would probably defend SP and ask those people to shut their mouths up, just like any typical supportive SP student.

    You can choose not to support SP or the shirts, but its definitely not nice to criticize us. If you are really that LOYAL to whatever school/stuff/place you are allocated in, then what about those people who wear these kind of tees on the Singapore streets? I believe everyone has at least seen this kind of tee-shirt being worn by teenagers in public before, right?

    The famous "I love NY" tee.


    Not only that, I have seen lots of other shirts bearing words such as "I love HK", etc. And the number of people owning these kinda shirts are extremely large. What do you have to say to that, then?

    What a wrong way to pledge your loyalty, NP students! You are just making yourself look like a "loyal-student wannabe" or whatever term that can be associated with "FAKE". Yes, I do agree that all of you should come out with your own T-shirt, then. (If that will make those students of yours STOP wearing ours.) You can't control anyone from wearing anything anyway. Its their own lives, and what has it got to do with yours?

    P/S: I am not trying to declare any war between the two schools, but just stating facts from my own point-of-view in regards to this unreasonable discussion amongst the NP students.

    P/P/S: LOL. I just stumbled across a link posted by a supposedly NP student, http://chaoscircus.livejournal.com/
    There was even a shirt designed by them, flashing the sign "Please stop wearing that SP shirt in NP".



    What's up with the students nowadays? We are all humans, fair and square. And it doesn't matter which school we are from as we all have the same goals. Does criticizing or stopping anyone from wearing our shirts make your life any better? Or your school will give an award to YOU for being such a LOYAL student? What do you think this is, a PAP vs other opponents election? D-U-H. =_="

    Freaking nervous!
    OMG, omg. I am so F-R-E-A-K-I-N-G nervous about my exam! I will be going to school in a few hours' time, and I am freaking out already!

    It has been 2 years since I last sat in an examination hall/classroom. How do you tell me not to be nervous?!?! *breathe in and out in an exasperating manner*

    OMG. I am so nervous that I can't even think properly. (I can't even think of the right words to type!)

    Actually, I had this "weird nervous sickness" since primary school. Guess I was born with it. Symptoms of my nervousness are usually quite extreme. (Shitting, vomiting, brain freeze, etc)
    Yes, back in my primary school days before a Maths exam, I had a major shitting business in the toilet.
    And during the time when I participated in a competition, I got so scared and nervous that I vomited near the MRT control station.

    AND.. AND... AND...
    The most recent one will be brain freeze during my secondary school days. I remembered that I totally blacked out during a class test till I can't even think or write. I know I could solve the problem if I weren't that nervous, but somehow I just couldn't work it out.
    Eventually, I was fortunate enough that the teacher gave me a retest for it.

    But I know not every teacher will be as kind as that to give me a retest! And here I am, getting frantic over something I thought I had bid goodbye to when I got into Design course. (Now that I had changed my course, its back to tests and exams again.)

    *ramble ramble ramble*

    Please, I don't wanna get a heart attack! Will I black out for another time today?!

    Went to read Jia Xin's blog and touched to see my piece of work there! Haha =X I drew this using black marker in the library when I had nothing to do. =\

    This piece of art is called "The art of NATURE". I priced it at $500!! :D (Anyhow only, lol!)




    There's meaning in this piece of art, ya know! You will be able to spot swans, flowers, faces, dog, grass, etc in it. Notice a face at the bottom left? Does it look like Mr . Bean? :P There's a mole there, too. Haha!
    Thank you if you admire my art!!
    *flying kisses everywhere*

    I stole this pic from her blog,too:

    Me in a box!~and erm, acting cute! :D

    '
    Thanks for the picture! =D~
    Its a pity that I won't get to see Jia Xin anymore in school. I miss her cutting the cardboard boxes and laughing with me at *ahem*. Working with her and the other new friends (Jamaica and Hui Min) reduce the boredom and exhaustion from work!

    Anyway,take care, okay! Good luck in your studies, future top engineer! :D

    Shoot
    Did a shoot on a beautiful Sunday and just gotten the pictures from our photographer. :D

    Just don't freaking see it if you dislike gore stuff. Shrek always say I look like a ghost in my photos. (Haha) I shall show you how "ghostly" I can be, then. XD










    Okay, look kinda like a "China Vampire" here =.=




    A group photo with our talented MUA, photographer and models. :D


    But Hey, who says a ghost can't be a "Fashionista"?! (Realized that this sunglasses guy behind me was peeping at me through his shades in this picture. What is he lookin' at ?!)



    Anyway, it was a fun shoot that morning (with all that laughing, etc.) Shida and Hariz (the two models) are such playful fellows. I didn't expect them to scare the passerbys during our photo-taking! There was this girl who just screamed when both of them suddenly made an "attack" on her.
    But of course, we aroused concern and worries from the public, though. There were people who reported us to the staff there, thinking that someone was probably injured with all that bloody stuff on our face and body. (We were washing away the makeup in the toilet then.)

    Suddenly, a woman came in (probably the cleaner), and asked (in a concern tone) if anything had happened.
    "Er, no... We were just washing off the makeup." I answered sheepishly.

    "Oh! Washing off makeup!" she said, and returned outside, repeating the same thing to the concerned passerbys who stood outside the toilet.

    Apologies for the misunderstanding!

    Next up, looking forward to the fashion shoot! (Coffee boy, you better don't drop your coffee maker when shooting me ah! Lol.)

    P/S: Just came back from the acting audition today. =_= The place was so far, can?! Thanks to dad and Pei Wen for leading and accompanying me there. I don't pin high hopes that I will be able to get casted for it though! There was an experienced talent who came for the audition, too. (I forgot professionalism and brought the script with me when the camera's rolling. I practically read off from the script, can!! AAH! Minus point! But I was told that I could read off from it! Silly me! Why did I bring it in even when I had memorised it =.= *#(&(#*&$!!!)

    P/P/S: Just heard the SHOCKING news about the passing of Michael Jackson (Mega Superstar). Sheesh, life is really unpredictable! He could be busy practicing for his upcoming planned concert this very minute, and gone the next.
    Although I am not his fan or anything, but I still feel a sense of loss that a life is gone. Just. Like. That. Rest In Peace, Michael Jackson.

    School Library
    Lai la~ I am finally publishing this entry (Jia Xin has threatened me not to visit my blog again if I do not update!! Hehehe.)

    So here they are, the compilation of the pictures I took while working at the school new library :D

    Look at this! I saw this PAINTING beside the ladies' toilet and took it!... ...

    Nahh, just joking. Its actually a scenery view near the new school library, "Hilltop Library". Its totally so village-like, right?!?! Haha. Love it~ Love it~



    Our library... (Looking empty' then, but it won't be anymore!) ;)



    The "comfortable" chairs for the students. (They don't actually look as comfy as they seem! When I attempted to sit on them the other time, I felt a hard pressure against my poor buttock. And Miss Ai Ling explained that its because she doesn't want students to get TOO comfortable till they fall asleep on the chairs, which is quite a common sight in our school lib. =_=)



    The "soon-to-be-occupied" empty area.



    And this is our lovely Miss Jia Xin, whom I managed to only take 1/2 of her full body. Wasted.
    (I know she will kill me for uploading her picture here... but who cares? =p Tee-hee-hee!!!) I won't let her remain anonymous in my blog!



    Random photo of my new-found food love -Curry-flavor cornflakes? (Ahh, okay, I don't actually know what it's called... but its damn nice, can?!)

    I almost finished the whole container of it. (It was actually brought by a library staff and I gobbled them up when she was not around. :D It was soooo irresistible that I just kept on munching and popping them into my mouth.) I will look for them @ Mustafa! :D



    Another random photo of Jia Xin's hand unwrapping the plastic cover for the shelves.



    And in the midst of working, I discovered an empty box that seemed so APPEALING... and welcoming....

    Ahh... so hollow...



    AND YES~ I gladly placed my feet into it and squatted down! :D (Just like what I'd do when I was a little kid.)

    I know, lah. I act cute, cannot meh?!?!




    OMG~ This looks splendid in photos. A library with a mini- ecogarden in the centre. Cool, right?!?




    Again, the "soon-to-be-filled-up" empty shelves. Maybe I can compile a before/after pictures in future. :D



    I saw a "red carpet" at one of the sides of the library, and proudly "cat-walked" on it. Jamaica (my new crazy friend =p) said "This carpet so small, I let you walk, lah. If I walk, I shall walk a much bigger one!" =_=! GRRR...



    Say goodbye to the previous library, BizIT. I heard that they are going to "hack" the floor tiles tonight. *sobs* Honestly, I had only been there once when it was still operating. ONCE!! (x_x)



    Anyway, had a nice time laughing today again. BUT I HAD A FREAKING HARD TIME SNEEZING with all those dust and chemical smell.
    Its a "Sneezing Zone" for me, and not forgetting... Jamaica! =D

    But I guess everyone was more afraid of my sneezes... because each time I sneezed, it sounded like an earthquake. =\
    One of the movers walked past and said "H1N1", and walked away =_= Even the security guard was mentioning the same thing to me when I sneezed again.

    AHHH CHOOOOOOO~~~~~**

    Hopefully I have not become retarded yet due to the chemical substances and dust I had sniffed into my lungs.. Grrr....


    P/S: Got another audition this coming Friday! I can FINALLY speak MANDARIN when auditioning as its a Chinese film. And the role I got is not human =\ But nevertheless, wish me luck! ;)

    School
    Won't be blogging so much these days due to MST. (Mid semester exam)
    Went back to school today and gave my lecturer a near heart-attack again. :D He mentioned about killing me. *blushes*
    But I am still glad there's still good lecturers like him around. He will definitely be on my top list for the nomination award! :D

    The Shrek Meeting - Zoo!
    Finally, after months of not having seen Shrek, we met up and had a ZOO OUTING!
    "I want to ride on the elephants and sit on the animals!" I told Shrek before reaching. (I know it sounded kinda wrong, but I am no sadist nor animal abuser! I just wanted to sit on the animals that could be officially sat. Haha.)

    Anyway, I am really excited about meeting Shrek for the trip. I MISSED HER LIKE SIAO, CAN?! She gave me souvenirs from her China trip (Pictures below), and I love them very much! Thank you, thank you, thank you... SHREK! ^_^

    Honestly, the last time I had been to the zoo was about a decade ago! (I had only minimal recollection of the trip then.)

    Well, lets allow the photos to do the talking!

    (Photo credits to my beloved Shrek. My camera's battery died on me even before I got to enter the zoo. Well, this is what happens when one doesn't bring extra batteries along. Boo.)

    The entrance:



    I want to complain! The entrance fees cost a bomb! $18 for adults?! You think ALL adults are rich? Duh. Never mind. I bet tourists won't find them expensive anyway.

    A photo we took with a rhino statue before entering. It looks as though someone is taking the picture for us, right??! Actually, this is Shrek's camera trick. *wink wink*

    Yeah, laugh all you want at our funny caps. (The cap which I was wearing in the picture was given by SHREK! Nice right?! I just love the poms poms that are dangling by the sides.) We had discussed earlier that we wanted to do something crazy for once. And we wore winter caps and tour around! (A shop assistant saw my cap and broke into a half-smile cum laughter. What's so funny huh?!)



    Snaky.. snaky.. My buddy.


    Look at this! This is my beloved Shrek. She bought this shoes in China. Okay, I'm joking. This was actually a pair of metallic shoes situated inside a "small hut" that indicates the size of kangaroos' feets. Anyone who passes by is able to insert their feet into the two large holes! I had a good laugh when Shrek stuck her feet inside the holes and suddenly out again, giving a worried look. She asked: "Later inside got worms how ah?!?!"

    HAHA. She's scaring herself! But eventually, there were no worms. =P I was making a joke and telling her *maybe* there is a hidden sleeping snake inside, and it will attack when our feet touches it. =p



    And my turn!!



    Stop laughing at my cap, I tell you!

    And my attempt at acting cute:
    Read the sign:"ENTER AND PREPARE TO BE CRATED".



    Look at the scenery! Its breathtaking, isn't it! Both Shrek and I were pondering whether to get on a ride or not since we were there. But every single thing requires payment in the zoo! Even animal, tram or boat rides... Grrr... Too bad we were on a budget. No luck in riding the boats!




    Just like what I told Shrek: " Crazy people do crazy stuff".
    And this picture explains that.



    Holding on to our caps as we jumped.




    A random monkey that passed by:

    This monkey is damn cute, can?! It even played and made faces at a male Caucasian tourist while he was attempting to take a photo of it. Well, speaking of friendly monkeys.

    Yes, I am afraid of heights... and I had trouble climbing down the stairs! (I practically sat on the stairs one by one in order to get down. =_= No choice, I can't seem to overcome the phobia.)



    Nice background. But please kindly ignore my #)(*$)#$ expressions.




    The show-off orang utan: (When it realized that Shrek and I were looking at him, he swing on the rope using only one limb. =_=")



    The polar bear aquarium: (It was said that polar bears have black skins!)



    Sadly, no tram rides for us:


    ACTING "SEXY"!


    Shrek said I look like "one of them": (Grrr.)



    Time to say goodbye to the EXPENSIVE ZOO:



    There were still a lot of photos taken, but I have yet to get them from Shrek. All of these provided photos are taken from her blog. If you wanna view more, go to: www.siying39.blogspot.com (Shrek, you will have to pay me for advertising fees =D) But of course, I recommend you guys not to visit her blog because it contains an unglam video of me dancing to the monkeys. YIKES! I looked totally monkey-ish, can?!?!

    But the most relaxing stuff was having the chance to eat @ Ben and Jerry's. Not only that, we went to purchase a gigantic size iced lemon tea and shared them! :D (一人一半, 感情不散!) (Dang, I just realized we forgot to snap pictures of our drinks!)

    Now, here comes a photo of what Shrek has given me: (Sorry for the blurry photo. I took this during midnight.)
    It looks totally adorable because its a dangling accessory! =D Shrek told me its a bowl of tomyam, my favorite. *cheeky grin* I love stuff like this. Thank you so much, SHREK! And don't you dare say I never miss you ah! In fact, I LOVE YOU! =X Now, can you feel the GOOSEBUMPS?!

    I will really miss those times when I disturbed you during lesson hours. Do find a suitable time to have lunch together in school yeah! (But I will mostly be at Foodcourt 3 now as its the nearest to my classrooms.)



    Ending this entry with loves... Let's go out again! :D Ice-skating, and my Teo Heng Karaoke! :D

    (Next shall be my library entry! Gaahhh... all my entries are going to be so outdated! Jia Xin, wait for my entry! =P Hehe)

    Updates:
    Shall update 2 entries which I have pictures of at one go! ;-)

    Sunday - Jarod and Jia Ling's (The double "Js"! LOL) Pre-Wedding shoot at Botanic Gardens.

    They totally look like a happy couple living in bliss everyday, lah! (Jia Ling was especially beautiful today after C.T made her up.)



    A candid one I took while they were fiddling around, waiting for their friend photographers to shoot them.




    I LOVE this shot! (But why did the DSLR camera come into the picture? AARGH!)




    Happy couple busy posing for the shots: (Sorry, Jarod.. for my poor photo-taking skills. So poor that I got your head chopped off in this pic =_=)




    Jarod helped me to take photos of the beautiful bride and I, but I can't post it up because he took pictures of his bride with her eyes closed, and my ugly face! :P (Believe me, your wifey will kill you if I upload the pics up. =p)

    Anyway, it was a fun morning! I look forward to attending their actual wedding. Its always nice and heartwarming to see friends getting married...

    To Jarod and Jia Ling:
    Thank you very much for allowing us to "KAYPO" on the pre-wedding shoot! Both of you have my best regards!

    祝你们:
    幸福万岁,白头偕老。。。早生贵子 and lastly... ... 子孙满堂! =X


    Alright, gonna update about today - My library work stuff!

    Working in the library is so UNEXPECTING. Yes, its like a place where unexpected stuff happens.
    Fortunately, got to know nice new friends such as Jia Xin and *Ahem* while working there (which is the best thing about it!)
    I prefer to call her *Ahem* because all the stuff she talks are super censored! =P~ We had a good time laughing at her "demonstrating" and telling us about her knowledge of "Papaya enhancement". (We were not sure whether to laugh or cry!)

    Just by looking at her actions are enough to make me laugh. She even described censored things in detail. (Totally not shameless about it! =P) If anyone would like to know her, she will be glad to give you free lessons (and maybe WORKSHOP/hands-on) on PAPAYA enhancement and how guys touch her buttock. =X

    Well, she left during lunch time, but leaving our minds polluted. (Lol!)
    Anyway, it was a "cleaning and chatting session" for both Jia Xin and I afterward. Honestly, I seldom feel so happy working in the library! =p~ I am glad there's someone to chat with while keeping our minds off cleaning the dirty shelves, racks and tables. (YUCKS)

    I think I am going to have nightmares about cleaning all those stuff, especially with new discoveries of dead bugs, teeth-marked chewing gum, spider webs, thick coat of dust, sweet wrappers, tissues, chocolate-stained plastic bags.. etc.. all hidden in areas of the tables! Its so freaking disgusting, can?! (Especially we are the ones having to clean all of them!) Totally maid-like work!

    Jia Xin was damn "lucky" today, too. One of the malay movers which the library hired to move to the new library (Yes, our school BizIT library is relocating!), asked for her number. The reason he gave was to "make friends".
    WHAT THE... ...?

    Not sincere at all! He asked his friend to help him ask somemore, while he stood outside and *prayed hard for her number*.
    Unfortuntely, she gave him his number and he really did call while we were on our way home. But he never did for a second time (I guess maybe its due to her telling him on the phone about having a boyfriend already, etc.)

    Dang, he must be feeling so disappointed! But its a good thing though. Don't worry, Jia Xin! =) Just try to keep a distance away from him when you work. I don't think he has the "face" to see or talk to you, too!

    Anyway, let me post up some pictures of the new Hilltop library! (supposingly the BIZIT library.) Hehe, honored to be the first few to tour the new place!
    Singapore Poly students are going to have a good life, man! (But its a pity that I won't be going there often as my main job location is at another library.)

    Still undergoing major construction!



    And the "picture of the day".. BIRD NEST! (Notice the 2 eggs inside the nest? So cute can??!!)



    Let me zoom it!



    Amazing?! We spotted it while on our back from the new library tour. And *Ahem* was talking about eating bird eggs with blood inside. =_=
    Hilarious.

    Anyway, it has been a fun "chatting" day altogether! (even though its all hard labor work!) :-) Shall see you guys on Thursday again! (hehe)
