Naughty

Did something naughty today..hope dun get caught...haha will know soon...

Anywae heard some bad news regarding a fren's fren..though i dun know the person directly but still felt sad for him and his family..

人生无常...hope everything turns out well for that person's family...

taking a moment

Juz lying on my bed now not doin anything and some memories juz flashed by...guess on such cold and boring nites..ppl tend to tink back on their lives...

So much time has been spent out of home this year that home is a luxury to me now...every little thing that i did not appreciate in the past seems so nice to me now...many people complain about how bad Singapore is...this bad that bad and always comment that other countries are better etc..well after being away for more than 10 mths now, I finally realised where is the best place.. there can only be one choice...home

we always view other places as better places because we only see the good side of it...every place has its good and bad points..but no matter where the place is, it cant beat the place where you grew up at...along with your family, frenz and loved ones...

just suddenly have some thoughts...life is not about having tonnes of $ or getting your first class honours etc...it is juz the simple things in life that makes us happy...being with ur family , frenz etc..often, we yearn for dreams and ambitions which we spend so much time trying to achieve..getting that million bucks? driving that car? getting that condo? true enough...dreams and ambitions are good so that ppl have a goal to work towards..but modern ppl r juz getting so obsessed wif goals that they forget all the things that r really impt to them...

i am 1 such person..trying to achieve this achieve probably ever since I got to know the word exams or number 1 etc...working so hard for everything...making full use of my time to work.. dreaming of being successful in life..right from getting good grades, good eca, getting into good schools, trying to get my As...been so bz all my life that sometimes i forget what really makes me happy in life...

it is such an irony that it is now in such a cold and dark place (cos my roomie has slpt..so the lights are off haha) that i take a moment to consolidate my life and realise that actually life is beautiful because of the simplicity and yet complexity of it...farmers can live happily juz by living a simple life in their farms and I am sure their happiness is much more than some stressful executives who are so rich but yet not happy...

these are thoughts that can only be generated when you really sit down and clear ur mind...or lie down...haha...well dun worry..i wont go and be a farmer juz because i said farmers lead a simple and happy life...i will continue to work hard towards my degree etc...but the difference after this year is i have learnt is to appreciate the simple things in life...esp when you have the chance and time...we always do not cherish the things around us until they are lost...and we always take things for granted...somethings may seem routine or simple but they are actually not...and we only realise their value when we lose them...

haha maybe all those things above dun make any sense to you after reading it or maybe u gave up reading halfway but hope it took a moment off your mind from the stressful or unhappy life you are leading....

Pay Day

Highlight of the week...today's pay day...as usual..my pay is delivered in a big red Coca-Cola Ang Pow...the Ang Pow is not fat though...but better than nothing..already running low on funds here..at least now I have some money to bring a person to hawker centre treat as promised in December..hee..plus a piece of kwey from coffeeshop...

Nothing much to blog abt already except that the weather is getting cold..and work is getting more and more boring...but at least my parents are here for a week..but the bad news is I am goin to get fat bcos of them..haha juz the first dinner they arrived and they are already feeding me like a pig...oh no..haha..nvm shall jian fei after they fly back home..

my mum is v kiasu...ask her to bring abit of something over..but in the end she bring so much of that something..hmm..shall not reveal what is that something first...want to know? stay tuned till next week...hahaha

Good luck and jia you to every1 studying for exams...

i dun like this week

everithing i do or plan juz did not go the way i wan them to this week..a little frustrated..

planned some stuff 4 quite long..den everything juz din go as planned...esp wif the loss of my mp3 today...

have to change everything..i hope it still turns out the way i planned...e only lucky thing is i backed up some of my stuff...

lost something i cherished

Lost my mp3 player today on the way to hard rock cafe...guess it was lost in the cab while i was paying for the fare..din even realise it until I finished dinner at the cafe..

it was a gift from westlife for my bday last year..and I really liked it...it accompanied me around e world..and had gan qing wif it already...it has really served me well during the past year..entertaining me whenever i was on my journey...

my carelessness caused me something i cherished today...it was really abit xie men as i was talking to my roomie abt new mp3 players in e afternoon and he was asking whether i was getting a new 1...den i said no...

juz wan to say sorry to westlife for losing the player and I really appreciated the gift....

dui bu qi...

Tired eyes

Need a break from programming..decided to blog a little..though i dun have much to blog abt..

My eyes r so tired from looking at my code that the words on my computer screen seem to be flying around...sick of my program which juz produces more and more bugs..really juz feel like pressing del on my keyboard and killing the toopig code...

There are juz more and more mistakes in my code that I dun even noe are mistakes and I dun understand wat my supervisor is explaining to me..simply lost..and my brain refuses to on its debugging mode..

The public buses here are getting on my nerves again..2 bus juz din stop for me this morning..and i juz stood like an idiot at the bus stop for 30 min...freezing in the early morning cold..den when i finally got up the bus..had to sqeeze like sardines..ya and I still managed to sms while squeezing...guess it is an self acquired skill when u live long enough in China...

Every1 has started to plan their trip back home in dec...booking air tix back to SG...most of us are juz waiting for time to pass now and for our IA to end...everyone here is getting sick...my roomie has been sick since the 1 week break, my project partner has been sick since GIP started, my other apartment mate is down with flu...not surprising with the cold temperatures here and NO HEATER....my toilet is juz like a big freezer...try bathing in it...

5pm is near..but there is not much excitement abt it...the reason being:

for(int i=0; i<54;i++)
{printf("ctrl c ctrl v");}

Bluey Monday

it's monday again..can see the nicknames of those on IA all have monday blues on them..and during lunch time can see everyone sian sian de...not surprising after a long week which ended with a trip to jin shan ling great wall yest...it was super far away from Beijing..the journey there took 3 hrs...so in total we spent 6 hrs on the bus...excluding we took 1 hr to get from our house to PKU which was the meeting place...

pretty tiring esp when e "lemons" and "lime" at the great wall made my legs so suan..hahaha... but the scenery was great plus i had the ever entertaining kelvin and eugene with me on the trip..u can never get bored when they r around...they simply create jokes out of no where..also took some bian tai pictures during the trip..and they took some bian tai videos too..but those are for private collection only.haha...

it's my roomie's birthday today! happy 23th bday!! we wil have a celebration 2nite 4 him...though it is spent with 4 guys but we will try and make it "fun" for u..hee hee..too bad i blew the surprise...accidentally...nvm..there will be another surprise for him later..i am sure he will love it...

lookin forward to sunday when i can finally slp late...
