what is wrong with my life?

2010-08-10T17:32:00.004-05:00

it's been a pretty long while since i last posted anything. anyway, life is pretty shitty for me now. when u want a specific event to happen, it never does. but when you dont want it to happen, it comes in multiples. maybe the higher ups think my life is too boring so they want to add some stress to it....

graduating next year

2010-06-08T15:17:00.001-05:00

good news!!

i'm graduating in april next year! convocation will probably be in June :P yay! then i can come back to hk and sg lolololol. can't wait. 9 more courses to go.

long overdue post

2010-06-01T13:08:00.004-05:00

ummm, it's been more than a month since i last posted here. finally finished going to school for summer class, but i still have 3 more online courses that ends in june and july. its more relaxed than going to sch everyday tho. life's pretty mundane now but i can say i'm beginning to behave more like a good girl :D i sleep early and wake up early (with some phone call help). i usually study on saturdays now cos i go with vince to the auto body shop. i study in the front while he works on cars in the back. oh and i have some happy news. the exam that i missed? i got a B+ for it hehehehehehe ^^

my brother's friend from hk came here a couple of days ago to visit alfred. hahaha truly a boring place to visit for him. of all places, why choose winnipeg. oh wells. im gonna go fishing with them right now. hope i get more catches!

there's no one more idiotic than me.

2010-04-15T02:05:00.005-05:00

i'm such a fucking moron. how the hell can i miss my final! it was supposedly on tuesday but i thought it was on wednesday! and i didnt even know my mistake until i stupidly went into the exam room and the examiner said, "history in the front, calculus at the back". then i was like, wtf, what happened to pol studies. i even asked the examiner if he had a name list so i can check if im in the right room. and then i saw the date. 14th april. FUCK. my exam is on 13th. and i still stupidly ask, isnt today the 13th? then it was the examiner's turn to give me the wtf face.

anyway later in the afternoon, corey drove me to see a doctor cos the sch clinic was fully booked. the doc gave me leave from sch from 12th to 14th. hopefully i can get a deferral exam. HOW THE HELL COULD I MIX UP SOMETHING SO IMPORTANT????? WHERE DID MY BRAIN GO???? gosh, if i cant get a deferral exam, im gonna get a D for this course. the final was worth 30%.

oh, and i missed my doc's appt ytd cos i thought it was today too. fml.

me and corey on the phone

I LOVE MCDULL!

the mommy's voice is Sandra Ng (she was the main char in Golden Chicken, really funny movie) and the old man is done by Anthony Wong ( acted in Infernal Affairs). i love them! hahaha enjoy it.

new home.

2010-02-08T00:59:00.002-06:00

moving to my new home this week: South Park. ok, its called south park drive.

lol, but it makes me wanna watch south park for the heck of it.

guess what? i have a boyfriend. ooooOOoooOOOoooOOOooo

2010-02-01T23:30:00.001-06:00

hey guess what guys? i have a boyfriend!

NOT.

in fact, i just found out today that i have a "boyfriend". some guy, a.k.a shut-the-fuck-up-Ben, declared himself as my bf a few months ago to some friends of his. and it finally reached my ears when his friend saw me and asked someone, "hey, isnt that ben's gf?"

seriously, FML.

FUCK MY LIFE

2010-01-24T14:50:00.002-06:00

the new year has begun, and my life is full of shit.

im moving to a new place after February (i havent found on yet). why? because the person (terry) who signed the lease is "graduating" and is moving out. it appears nothing much, but im really pissed. 1) you know, such a big thing, i shouldnt be wrong to assume that u're suppose to AT LEAST notify the friends you're living with first, instead of posting ads online and actually finding someone else to move in AND THEN let the others know. 2) he didnt fucking tell me anything. i had to find out he was moving out from my brother and another roomie. excuse me, do i not live in the house too? 3)when he asked me to move in, he said for sure that we'll be staying for a long time, maybe 1 year, or 3 years max. and again, i shouldnt be wrong to have the assumption that "WE" includes him too.

if i had wanted to live with a stranger, if i dont mind moving once every few months, I WOULD HAVE FUCKING LIVED IN THE DORMS. oh, btw, he found a Turkish guy to sublet his room out. im not racist or anything but i think if u have to live with someone, its better to be with someone who actually have the same kind of lifestyle you do (unless its family).

and my mom is arriving 2 days later. gee, he sure picked a good time to heap this on all of us. i seriously fucked him up till his mom cant even recognise him. oh, and that fucking pussy actually had his wife call me from HK (she went back last week) and shoulder the blame. way to go terry, hide behind your wife when u can't argue against me cos I AM FUCKING RIGHT. anyway, from this incident, im pretty touched by my other friends who were all willing to help the 3 of us (me, alfred and alvin) to solve this problem and are pretty willing to go out of their way to do it.

another major thing that happened to me was the car accident last night. we were heading to macdonald's on pembina after clubbing at Republic, and some drunk ass moron did a hit-and-run at a traffic light. the whole right side of the trunk up to the rear wheel was totally smashed in. dikdik was sitting at that side and my head was resting on his lap cos i was soooo tired. if bun hadnt seen that car coming and tried to turn left and move out of the way, the whole trunk would have been smashed and... i would not be here blogging about it.

so, this pretty much sums up the major stuff that has happened. im off to go look for more houses.

pikachu in da house

2009-12-14T23:17:00.002-06:00

we have a new name for our beloved pet rabbit: pikachu.

yea, u saw it correctly. no, the rabbit doesnt go 'pika-pi' at all, but it will look like pikachu soon since it gnaws on the wires around the house all the time! one day it'll get electrocuted and we will have our very first pokemon. oh how exciting. =.=

i don't go looking for trouble, but trouble looks for me. so what if i stay within the boundaries of my role. so what if i ignore others. i can't freaking control what's going to happen that will totally fuck up my life (well, it isnt fucked up yet, but getting there).

just fucking stay away from me.

關菊英－《宮心計》

誓約　歷遍世間轉化
善惡　未報最終需要代價
平步震驚天下　
綢緞如鏡　玉砌似畫
眉目如雪
未染細沙　
請你留下
若抱住　別作夢　未得寵
看到的　聽到的　不要信
遺憾是　閉起眼時　
至望到世間多少暗湧
愛得深　說得真　別感動
再錐心　再刻骨　不覺痛
無奈是　兩手相擁　也是覺得冰凍

誓約　在美景中火化
直到　玉砌最終都變敗瓦
回望那天初夏
涼膳御妝　貌美似花
人善相堅
涙會結花
景緻如畫
若抱住　別作夢　未得寵
看到的　聽到的　不要信
遺憾是　閉起眼時　
至望到世間多少暗湧
愛得深　說得真　別感動
再錐心　再刻骨　不覺痛
曾极恨　也可相擁
往事如塵像風

had a terrible row with alf the day before (yes, on my birthday). he made me sooo spitting mad, that was the first time i left home and ran away because i was angry. ended up staying out till 6am then walked home. kinda regret having my friends driving arnd looking for me but if i had to do it all over agn, i would still have left to be away from everyone. anyway, alf already apologised so i'll forget this matter.

so much for wanting an uneventful birthday.

Janice & Sonia Cover of Offically Missing You

2009-10-18T15:44:00.002-05:00

Tamia - Officially missing you

All I hear is raindrops falling on the rooftop
Oh baby, tell me why'd you have to go
Cause this pain I feel it won't go away
And today I'm officially missin' you

I thought that from this heartache, I could escape
But I've fronted long enough to know
There ain't no way
And today I'm officially missing you

Ooh...can't nobody do it like you
Said every little thing you do, hey, baby
Said it stays on my mind
And I-I'm officially...

All I do is lay around, 2 years full of tears
From looking at your face on the wall
Just a week ago you were my baby
Now I don't even know you at all,
I don't know you at all

Well, I wish that you would call me right now
So that I could get through to you somehow
But I guess it's safe to say, baby, safe to say
that I-I'm officially missin' you

Ooh...can't nobody do it like you
Said every little thing you do, hey, baby
Said it stays on my mind
And I-I'm officially

Well, I thought I could just get over you, baby
But I see there's something I just can't do
From the way you would hold me
To the sweet things you told me
I just can't find a way to let go of you

no mood at all.

2009-10-16T16:59:00.001-05:00

they're celebrating my birthday and jeston's tmr. i really dont want to party. no mood, nothing. i just want to stay home and stone.

Teen dies in fatal crash on Higgins Avenue

there is a short news clip.

if wishes were gold, i would be rich.

2009-10-08T12:50:00.002-05:00

i woke up this morning, and wished yesterday never happened. i just can't believe he's gone like that, so suddenly. fuck, he even did the stupid facebook quiz on when you're supposed to die, not long ago. it said in the year 2054 or something. okay im in grief, not retardation. i know facebook quizzes arent true. but still, i would so much rather the facebook quiz be true.

i wish he went to play snooker with sa and frank instead of going to the casino.
i wish i talked to him on msn that night. saw him online, but figured i had nothing to say so i didnt.
i wish i managed to persuade him to go to mystique last friday.
i wish i could have seen him one last time before he passed.

i wish he lived.

nick, you are a good friend.

2009-10-07T15:20:00.004-05:00

a friend of mine, Nick Lui, died this morning in a car accident. he was born in 1990, and had only lived a meager 18+ years of life and was in his final year of high school. his goal of becoming an accountant will never be fulfilled.

i remember all the times you, jesse and dailo came out to join sa and i cos we were bored. and all the times u drove me home cos i was drunk. i would love to be your friend again in the next life, if i do have one.

rest in peace, nick. you are forever in our hearts.

2009-09-10T12:31:00.003-05:00

went to Grand Beach on Labour Day (Sept 07) with all my roomies (6 of us), and it was a freaking long 2hr drive from winnipeg. could barely hold my pee on the way there. okay, TMI lol. anyway it's been a while since i went to the beach so i bought a simsuit for 15 bucks at one of the stores along the beach... and i got buried in sand this time. here are some pics: alvin and terry, the 2 masterminds who had me buried in sand.

2009-08-14T18:11:00.003-05:00

i'm not sure if you guys have seen the movie Extreme Movie, but it's funny... in a kind of lame ass way. i brought it up cos of the uhh.... props, used in the movie. lol all sex toys. so the other day, sa and i decided to go into a couple of sex shops just to see see. first time for both of us lol. it was pretty interesting and educational.... they actually had a life size replica for a vagina, and a miniature for you to touch and see how real it is! lol, the embarrassing part was that there was some 20+ yr old guy at the counter watching us browse around. he probably thought we were lesbians shopping for something.

okay enough on that. i've moved into my new home for a couple of days now. i have to say, the basement looks like some sort of a 2 or 3 stars hotel and while it's nice, it kinda freaks me out. cos it reminds me of all the ghost stories that comes with hotels. ughhhhh. i still have no bed or wardrobe so i cant unpack. im still sleeping on the blow-up air bed.

way back into love. <3

2009-08-11T13:24:00.001-05:00

i love this~!

new hse!

2009-08-10T23:14:00.003-05:00

i'm moving soon!! alf and his roomies are moving into a new house, and im moving into the basement of that hse lol. wheeeeeeeee! i have the whole floor and toilet to myself. hehe yea man. moving the day after tmr! can't wait! i promise to upload some pics after i spruce it up!

actually, i'm moving in sight unseen lol. but doesnt matter la. alf said it was a great place sp i'll believe him. all i know is that i don't have a distinct bedroom, so i gotta get some dividers to act as a door.

yeh. peace out.

tyler ford. LOL.

2009-08-05T11:58:00.009-05:00

i told my mom about tyler a couple of nights ago, and she really surprised me with her response. okay first off, i met him at republic a few weeks ago and he's been trying to umm, well you know. anyway, so far all i can say is i definitely like him as a friend, and the added plus is tt he makes me feel really pampered. i actually wouldn't mind going out with him to try it out. BUT.... oh man, there's a HUGE 'but' here.

he has 2 broken teeth. it happened two yrs ago and was from those underground fighting rings where u get money if u win. apparently someone stomped on his face. ouch. and it isnt those normal broken or chip tooth either. it looks REALLY horrible. shit, i feel so shallow for being unable to get past it. his looks are okay, not ugly, not super good looking, your typical white guy, but the teeth... omfg. so i was telling my mom abt him and stuff. actually, if i can tell my mom abt a guy that i'm not with, it means i've more or less written him off. i mean, tt incident was 2 yrs ago, if he wanted to fix it, it'd be done by now.

then my mom surprised me by saying, "if you really like him and can tell he's a good guy, i wouldnt mind lending him the money to fix his teeth if that's the only thing that's stopping you cos he probably doesnt have the means to do it." WHATTTTTTTT! i nearly tripped when i heard it (cos i was pacing arnd). fixing one broken teeth costs abt $2200. he has 2 broken!

i totally cant believe my mom offered to do that! okay for one, she has always been against me dating. two, it's a guy she barely knows! so what if i know him! i dont know him that well! i'm not going to lend him such a big sum of my mom's money! but since she okay-ed this whole situation, i dont know if i shld continue going out with him.

okay main point is, my mom really surprised me. she said she doesnt mind as long as i really love him and will be happy (okay, way too soon for that to happen). man, i feel so loved by my mom! :D

2009-07-22T01:19:00.002-05:00

cruise night

2009-07-20T20:32:00.004-05:00

last night was awesome! i went out for cruise night again and or once, it wasnt the usual stand and stare at cars i know nothing about. we went to some place with a straight stretch of road where a couple of cars race each other. the highlight was probably the MR2 against a WRX. the WRX launched really really quickly but the MR2 won in the end cos it has a higher maximum speed.

oh and did i mention the cops came later and everyone flee to their cars and drove off just like in the movies? it was a totally funny sight where u see all the cars speeding away at the road exits lol. yes, i ran away too.

boring day. nothing new.

2009-07-07T22:24:00.004-05:00

dammit, i'm so freaking bored. but a) i'm too lazy to go out and b) i've only 40 bucks to last me till 19th (or around there). i'm a little pissed with my mom. she keep delaying sending me money. that's still okay, but she was MIA for like over a week. no contact, nothing! i think she lost her phone but can still call us somehow right! anyway alf finally got a call from her (hence i have that date, 19th). but hell, its already july and i dont have my july allowance at all! still must wait till 19th.... wtffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff.

okay enough ranting. hmmmm what else to blog about....

oh the guys were talking about a camping trip for this sat... but since i'm not exactly the nature-loving type (and i have no moolah), i'll pass. i wanna go to the zoo, see the lions and what not... it's been so long since i went to a zoo!

and as for school, i'm taking POLS 2040 - International Relations in the mornings, mon to fri. i have to write an essay!! pffft, nothing new but i still dont like it. cos there's final exam too.. why cant they just do it one without the other? haha maybe taking soc and psy in may/june has spoilt me with all the in class mcq tests with no essays or final exams.

oh did i mention that because i have no allowance, I CAN'T BUY THE FREAKING TEXTBOOK FOR MY COURSE? which is of course, very much needed.

this guy is really cool! he did a remake of craig david's song. apparently, craig david personally went to korea to find him (and only him) cos craig david thought he was the only one who could do it. check it out!!

days to come.

2009-07-04T21:15:00.007-05:00

man, i dont get why so many people are having relationship problems. must be the time of the year or something -.- makes me so glad im not in a relationship. but i really feel sad for my friends. sigh. okay moving on to my fun-filled days!

alright, let's start with Canada Day, July 1st. i went to the The Forks (same place i got my tarot card reading) to watch the fireworks. we got there around 7pm and just sat in one of the patios to chill since we had till 11pm when the fireworks are due to go off. man, it was PACKED. the amount of ppl was crazy and the most dreadful thing: hellish queues outside the toilets. okay anyway here are just some pics from that day. nothing significant cos we didnt take any pics of fireworks. i mean, why bother? just watching it is enough. Canada Day '09

oh oh, guess what time this pic was taken?

freaking 10+pm! the only starts to set at arnd 10+, but starts rising arnd 4am. so believe me when i say i have had a loooooong day. oh, and it should shed light on why sandra bullock and ryan reynolds goes to sleep when the sun is still up in the movie: The Proposal. cos in Alaska, they are experiencing the same damn thing. (this also means i dont get much sun in the other half of the year.)

went to watch The Proposal on Thurs night. it's a MUST-SEE MOVIE! i think it's absolutely great, even though they can improve the ending a little. kinda abrupt but still good! i really recommend everyone to watch it. i have soooo many more movies i wanna watch. like the one with gerard butler, taking of pelham 123, ice age, sister's keeper etc! oh oh oh, and if you guys decide to watch Whiteout when it comes out, here's a fun (and totally useless) fact for you! it was filmed in montreal and winnipeg!

okay anyway, went clubbing agn on friday (i.e last night) at Whiskey Dix. IT SUCKED. the decoration and theme of the club is those western cowboy things which looks pretty good, and they have a really awesome patio out for smokers. oh dont worry, i didnt drink much this time. just a gin and tonic, plus a dirty hooker. BUT, the music was awful. i cant get high on it even though there was one or two good songs to dance to, the other songs killed the mood. esp when the live band went up on stage. sa and i left about then to join the others at hkh where the others were drinking. anyway, here's a pic of me and sa!

and then there was bbq today. havent done it in a long long long time. when was the last time?? oh yea, the class chalet in Nov '07 =.=

LOTUS ELISE vs VX220 TURBO

i still love lotus elise!!

long overdue post.

2009-07-01T04:04:00.007-05:00

it's way past midnight now so i can say, Happy Canada Day!

anyways, u guys are probably wondering why im not online often these few days. because, im out all the time! wooohooo. this is what life is after exams. sadly, i have a course in starting this thurs, and then i'll be in sch every morning from mon to fri ): heck, what am i talking about, i LIVE in school =_="

okay the highlights of my week so far:
1) got stinking drunk when i went clubbing on friday night. puked twice in the toilet, once down the stairs when exiting the club then chris rushed me out to the curb to puke, and once on the way to someone's hse for after-party (if you can call it that). rested awhile and could still function till dawn when both sa and i went to sleep. okay note to self: 7 shots limit. oh surprisingly, i only get really itchy when i drink beer, but not hard liqour. which is good, and bad too cos then i'll get drunk so much faster.

2) smoke weed on saturday night, and then watched 17 Again at the cheap theatre. on monday night, smoked weed again and watch night at the museum 2 online. and i can tell you: I CANT GET FREAKING HIGH (apparently some ppl are like that). well, the first time did get me high abit. i couldnt concentrate on the story cos i was too busy focusing on freaking small details. then i was just plain sleepy the second time.

3) my second time driving a car! first time was corey just teaching me the basics like accelerating, braking and reversing. this time, david went more into details abt the mirror, the turnings (which is difficult cos i always turn the steering wheel too much) and i realise i cant park a goddamn car! almost ran into a post once or twice. but i still managed to drive from school to thompson's house :D with david beside me of course. i wouldnt have done it without supervision!

oh and i almost crashed into kevin/andy's garage. LOL.

katy perry - thinking of you

2009-06-28T15:40:00.003-05:00

Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed

You said move on
Where do I go
I guess second best
Is all I will know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes

You're like an Indian summer
In the middle of winter
Like a hard candy
With a surprise center
How do I get better
Once I've had the best
You said there's
Tons of fish in the water
So the waters I will test

He kissed my lips
I taste your mouth
He pulled me in
I was disgusted with myself

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into...

You're the best
And yes I do regret
How I could let myself
Let you go
Now the lesson's learned
I touched it I was burned
Oh I think you should know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your...

Your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Oh won't you walk through
And bust in the door and
Take me away
Oh no more mistakes
Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay

feminism

2009-06-26T15:35:00.003-05:00

having some kinda conversation with reuben sparked off my thoughts. well, the whole conversation was basically on how being girly means the end of manhood for guys and chauvinism. but it made me think abt feminists.

what do feminists really want? equal rights? in my book, there's no such thing as equality between men and women. before i get stoned to death for such a blasphemous comment, let me say that i do advocate for BETTER rights for women. but equality? give it up.

the reason i dont believe equality can be achieved is because men and women are different. and no one can deny, differences can NEVER be valued in the same way (this does not only apply to gender: race, age, class background).

women are definitely better off now than before, but believe me, they are a far way from being equal. try challenging me on this and you'll get me spouting all sorts of examples from my sociology textbook.

okay on to the main point: feminists.

so let's say, a new french restaurant opens, and the feminists has visions of going there with her boyfriend so she told him, "you'll have to take me there one day". now here's the thing, don't feminists object to the idea of being 'taken' anywhere? it sounds like the female is packed into a briefcase and carried to the restaurant.

there are many third-wavers (the third wave of feminists) who cherry-pick their battles. they say NO to Howard Stern and derogatory terms, but YES to depilation and miniskirts. Many are no longer walking the feminist walk in their kitten heels, especially where romance is concerned. probably because most women have always wanted to be "treated like a lady": given gifts and compliments, 'whisked' away for romantic weekends.

this is where you normally hear women complain abt how frayed the "gentlemen" they dated left them. E.g. Mr. Whisk-Me-Away was whisking someone else on alternate weekends. makes you wonder how someone could treat them as anyone other than themselves: a lady and a fool.

life with feminists comes with frustrations. they fish for compliments about their appearances, but they object to the female-objectification pile-on. they crave reassurance when they gained weight, but is it the size of their ass bothering them or the pressure to be thin (which feminists supposedly objects to).

yes, you can surely tell, i'm no feminist.

in case you're wondering whats so special abt the 2 girls, their dresses are made of 100% condoms.

exams are overrrr

2009-06-23T11:52:00.004-05:00

okay, im officially FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. hahah woots, all done with tests while other are still slugging through the swamp of exams. i have abt 20mins before i gtg and catch the bus so i shall spend it blogging!

where to, you ask? to cima! tt's the korean hair salon along Grant Ave, which is pretty far (ok, very far). i heard its really good so im gonna check it out. but in terms of price, it's awesome! the salon which i usually go to: weldon, is super ex la. i called weldon first, and ask them for the price for hair rebonding. its fucking 200 bucks. then i called cima. its only 100 bucks!! and cima has a pretty good rep too. so i shall go have my hair straightened and cut! it's really too long now.

i'm gonna catch Year One tonight. gosh, i totally cant wait. i absolutely love jack black! he's adorable (:

the bystander effect.

2009-06-19T23:59:00.008-05:00

my prof showed us this video while in psych class today on the Bystander Effect where, when you're in a group or in public, common sense is gone and most ppl assumes someone else will step up to do something that they should have done.

1) the guy with his kid just walked by as though nothing happened. fuck, the girl sruggling could easily have been his kid.

2) the old couple actually swerved around them, clearly seeing what was happening and avoided the whole situation. and i actually thought they were the ones who would have helped.

i'm pretty disturbed by what is proven here. and so as to not spoil the ending for you guys, let's just say tt the ppl who do help, are the least unlikely ones.

i feel like ranting more, but i shall be kind and spare u guys my anger. im really upset with the video of the small girl.

here's a second video on the Bystander effect which i find amusing. there's no sound in this video so don't bother turning up the speakers' volume. participants in this survey were just told to sit and the room and complete the form, without knowing th true purpose of the experiment, which was to see how they would react alone or in a group. oh and in the video, 'confederates' means the other actors in the experiment who were paid to pretend to be participants in the survey.

they actually had to go in and get the woman to leave because she would have suffocated if she remained in there (which she clearly would).

RED RIVER EXHIBITION2009

2009-06-19T13:40:00.007-05:00

i had an awesome awesome day ytd! i went to the Red River Ex (: it started off with me napping, and then receiving a call to to go. and boom! i was out of the hse in 10 mins flat.

check it out here for pics! ---> Red River Ex 2009

(thompson's holding the cam)

anyway, before ytd, i nvr knew thompson and chris were wusses! haha just kidding. thompson's afraid of height, and chris's afraid of speed. like, thompson can fear ferris wheels but is okay with low rollercoasters, and chris vice-versa. so its funny when we were forcing them to go on rides, chris said, "i'll do it as long as thompson does it". but since their fears are different, chris ended up regretting his words.

and at the risk of sounding bimbotic, i broke my nail while riding the pirateship, cos i was holding the bar too tight. tt's probably the ride i had always feared most.

it was a fun fun day and i got to see snakes!!!! YAY! tt was probably the highlight for me since i love snakes. (not that i wanna keep one, it's too dangerous)

anyway after the Ex, we reached thompson's hse at arnd 10pm and just lazed arnd before going out to smitty's for chicken wings and beer (i drank iced tea!). a very very fun day in all.

2009-06-14T17:29:00.004-05:00

i dont know what's up with me lately. my mood is always near the pits, i'm snappy and bitchy. basically, i'm one very hostile person these days. and no matter what ppl say, 'you can always talk to me', there are always some things you don't say to ppl, for a bunch of reasons.

don't get me wrong, i really appreciate it. but when you don't even know what's happening how do you tell someone else? or you're not comfortable speaking about it. or you simply dont have one person you trust to unload it onto because you know that once it's put to words, even you yourself knows it's selfish, unreasonable, desperate or totally irrational.

being alone is the best sometimes. because you simply dont need to care about other ppl, or what they think. mom used to say something abt me living in a 'one man island' or something. yea, i'll probably die there.

OUR SCHOOL BELT.

2009-06-11T15:49:00.002-05:00

oh man, my sleeping hours are SCREWED agn, i tell you. i couldnt sleep at all last night and then slept from 4 to 11pm just now! aarrrghh. and i was so normal last week. dammit, how to go for class at 8:30am in this state??

anyway i just received my tests results. 76% in psych and 80% in soc hahah. okay hopefully i can continue with this marks in the next test. i.e., this coming wednesday.

this is just wayy too cute. the little monkey even stops to let car pass!

funny prof

2009-05-17T18:19:00.005-05:00

okay i know i havent been updating much, but compared to SOME people :P, i'm much more diligent.

last week was kinda a packed week for me, mainly cos i was trying so hard not to study. yes you heard me right (or saw the words), i didn't want to study even though i had an upcoming test. there wasn't any mood, which means... no motivation at all. anyway i got thru my two tests and i think i should be able to pass. i think.

I'm so sorry but i'm going to mention my soc prof again XD. i seriously love her to bits! ever since the start of the first day, she has been making these weird noises in her throat when she's "editing" her language, but the occasional 'bitch' or 'fuck' still slips out. and not only that, her commentaries are always so cheeky and adorable. funny thing is, justin took soc last term and his prof (a male) was just the same! we have concluded that sociologists are much much more interesting and fun! and not to mention, the freebies she gave us for the class test helped me loads :D and on the day itself, she gave us another one!

and astha dear, the world isnt coming to an end. i HAVE gone to the gym with you before! and not only once! ): and you nvr reply my emails... go fix ur msn or something so u can come online more often please.

on a side note, i really wonder who's visiting this blog from barbados, not that i mind. i've always wanted to go to the Caribbeans...

bob marley quote

2009-05-17T18:09:00.004-05:00

"You may not be her first, her last, or her
only. She loved before and she may love again. But
if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s
not perfect - you aren’t either, and the two of
you may never be perfect together but if she can
make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and
admit to being human and making mistakes, hold
onto her and give her the most you can. She may
not be thinking about you every second of the
day, but she will give you a part of her that
she knows you can break - her heart. So don’t
hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and
don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when
she makes you happy, let her know when she makes
you mad, and miss her when she’s not there."

I'm lying alone with my head on the phone
Thinking of you till it hurts
I know you hurt too but what else can we do
Tormented and torn apart
I wish I could carry your smile and my heart
For times when my life feels so low
It would make me believe what tomorrow could bring
When today doesn't really know, doesn't really know

I 'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right believing for so long
I 'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong

I want you to come back and carry me home
Away from this long lonely nights
I'm reaching for you, are you feeling it too
Does the feeling seem oh so right
And what would you say if I called on you now
And said that I can't hold on
There's no easy way, it gets harder each day
Please love me or I'll be gone, I'll be gone

funny!

omg, batman and superman is actually the same person!

new summer term.

2009-05-09T00:57:00.003-05:00

omg. just when the weather was oh-so awesome... it became hell overnight >.< started with the rain on thursday morning. sooooo cold! abt 4 degrees. the rest of the day didnt get any better. then this morning, there were snow flurries!! omg! in the middle of may!!! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SUMMER! it was truly a wtf moment for me to moment i stepped outside the dorm.

okay anyway, time to talk abt the new sch term. taking soc from 8.30 to 10.30, then psy from 10.45 to 12.30pm. i'm so glad i chose the 8.30 timeslot for soc (cos i could actually take psy first, then soc). my soc prof is the ONLY reason i don't doze off in a 8.30am class. hell, my psy prof is so boring that i doze off even tho i was wide awake after coming out of soc lesson. both are female btw.

Professor Kandrack (soc prof) is so cheeky in class, and a pretty stubborn feminist. she's totally fun and while she does sometimes rant abt (interesting) stuff until they're out of point, she will still go back to the topic pretty soon. the only thing is that she is a technology-idiot (means no powerpoint slides) and hardly uses the board. its just her mouth and your hands - to copy notes. thankfully she goes super slow on impt points.

Professor Leboe (psy prof) isnt actually that bad, just that her lect's are a bit dry. she does have powerpoint slides and short videoclips, which i always do my utmost to watch since they are actually pretty cool. some of the verbal examples she gives are pretty good too. i just cant stay awake dammit. oh and did i mention she brings her 9 yr old daughter to class and talks abt sex in front of her? (well she has to since it's relevant to the point she's teaching, but still..)

i've become more active lately. maybe it's because of the early hrs i need to get ready for class, i keep much more regular sleeping hours. signed up for a recreation course at the frank kennedy centre and its so hard! but i'm going to continue and excel haha. then i started going to the gym too. well, technically its a gym, but it's really 5 machines in a room in the basement of my dorm. but it's still good. the best part, no one goes there so i have it all to myself. :D

phew, this was a pretty long post. well, to make up for not blogging so much the past week. now you're all updated with the my life, boring as it may be. BYE NOW.

science

2009-05-06T03:03:00.004-05:00

let's have a little science lesson today.

2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen gives you H2O (Water)

5 Hydrogen + 1 Nitrogen gives you H5N1 (Bird Flu)

1 Hydrogen + 1 Nitrogen gives you H1N1 (Swine Flu)

so we can conclude that more hydrogen molecules are needed for birds than pigs. :D

swindle flu

2009-05-01T17:35:00.005-05:00

regarding the latest hype about swine flu, hk finally got its first confirmed case. but that's not the point of this post. and to save myself the time of putting what i think into word, i'll just copy and paste some of the comments readers left on CBCnews webbie:

"Nice to see that CBC is participating in spreading panic and fear a la CNN & Fox News.

Indeed, 331cases worldwide? Wow, let's all barricade ourselves in our own homes and seal any openings with duct tape while we line our walls with aluminum.

More elderly die from the common cold each year that this 'snoutbreak'."

"When the annual flu bug comes again this year and 2500 die in Canada and 30,000 die in the States and thousands more around the world,will the W.H.O. and govts. give the world an hourly blow by blow? I think not ! they never have.This was to justify their own existence,since we haven't heard from them in years."

"I still don't believe this is a pandemic. 331 cases out of 6.8 billion people is nothing to get so upset about. More people are catching the regular flu (which can kill you) than this "swine" flu. More people are dying in car crashes everyday than dying from this flu. Most people who have contracted the virus outside of Mexico have only mild cases and are recovering.

The one person who died of the flu in the US was a 2 year old Mexican girl who already had a compromised immune system, which is something this story and others have omitted. This is fear mongering at its best. Governments can change policies, change regimes, change the way we live because we're afraid, just look back at the Bush Administration's wild changes post 9/11.

In my opinion this is the media needing a good story, or it's the government needed to give the public a good dose of shock therapy. Read Naomi Klein's new book "The Shock Doctrine" if you need more information on how the gov't has done this type of thing time and time again, and we still don't learn from it."

missing it

2009-04-23T16:36:00.006-05:00

i can't believe i'm saying this so soon, but i am fucking boredddddd. oh man. not that i like exams but, hell, i dunno what to do now. still trying to find 'boys over flowers' to dl, but so far all i'm getting is those french subbed ones. sigh.

anyway, i was just thinking back to those times in jc when i was always complaining about the workload. esp history!! omgg. classic copying moments. sch was so tough back then compared now. i wouldn't want to go through all that prep for the A lvls agn but man, i do i kinda miss it.

i was looking after misako's dog in bao's room ytd when the rest were out for poker night. the poor thing fell off the bed on friday and broke her leg. doris came back around 10+ from shopping and with her help, we managed to force feed mocka the meds. i guess mocka was getting nauseous from the meds cos she kept shaking after tt. sigh. i hope the poor sweetie gets better soon.

I love you, man

2009-04-22T11:30:00.002-05:00

watched I Love You, Man with sa (short for louisa) ytd and it was so funny! im not sure if it classifies as a chick flick since it involves the friendship of 2 men. but the overall feel was, chick flick!

anyway as always, there are movie trailers before the show and all of them were awesome!! oh man, i see my summer filled with movies agn!!

B GRADE

2009-04-17T12:34:00.008-05:00

i just finished my last final exam!! omg im totally free. and i just realised how much i like blocking my calls lol. okay, under the same page for diverting calls, i can chose to accept no calls. seriously after what happened on wednesday, i dont need no body spoiling my mood and wasting my entire day cos i was too ... to study. it's '...' cos i cant find a word for it.

anyway my math results are out and i needed 71 to get a B grade. guess what i got? 70.87 WTFFFF! (yes, they do count up to 0.99) i was so freaking pissed at myself la. cos out of the 8 tests, i didnt go for one cos i didnt know there was a test that day, and i happened to skip lect tt day. sucks to be me i know.

anyway i emailed my prof and asked him if there was anything i could to bump it up to 71 so tt i could get a B instead of a C+. he was so nice! he just replied, "i have changed your grade". he just changed the grade without bumping up my marks. lol, almost killed by a 0.13 difference.

i cant wait to move to avm~

oh man, love this song

wolverine

2009-04-13T08:17:00.002-05:00

i was watching x-men origins: wolverine with bao on wednesday night, after my math test. it was a freaking 'L-O-L' experience. see, x-men origins isnt due until later this month, but apparently someone has released it on the net already. and, the video quality was EXCELLENT. seriously, no sarcasm there.

here's the funny part. the movie wasn't completely edited. we could see the wires hanging from the actors back, helicopters in front of some extremely fake and unedited background and when wolverine did some falling/rolling thing on the logs, it was some animated silver 3D figurine. scene transition wasn't smooth at some parts. ohoh.

and the best part, during the final battle (all action movie has those) the structure that collapsed was again, some 3D greyish animation that is not yet coloured in. =.=" throughout the movie, bao and i were, "oh, i think i just saw some wires." "yea, i saw it too." "hey, wolverine became silver surfer."

truly a great lesson on video making. and now i realise how fake movies are. i mean, we all know that the things they do isnt real, but just not to this extent. but it was still amazing.

i wonder if i can catch a similar partially unedited film on magneto when it comes out in 2011.

Quebec dad sued by daughter over internet rights

2009-04-08T05:15:00.004-05:00

this is freaking insane!

Quebec dad sued by daughter after grounding loses his court appeal
Father's lawyer says they may take case to Canada's Supreme Court
Tuesday, April 7, 2009 |
CBC News

A Quebec father who was taken to court by his 12-year-old daughter after he grounded her in June 2008 has lost his appeal.

Quebec Superior Court rejected the Gatineau father's appeal of a lower court ruling that said his punishment was too severe for the wrongs he said his daughter committed.

The father is "flabbergasted," his lawyer Kim Beaudoin told CBC News.

In its ruling, issued Monday, the province's court of appeal declared the girl was caught up in a "very rare" set of circumstances, and her father didn't have sufficient grounds to contest the court's earlier decision.

The family's legal wrangling started with a dispute over the girl's internet use.

'Either way, he doesn't have authority over this child anymore. She sued him because she doesn't respect his rules. It's very hard to raise a child who is the boss.'
— Kim Beaudoin, the father's lawyer

She had been living with her father after her parents split up when he grounded her in 2008 for defying his order to stay off the internet. The father caught her chatting on websites he had blocked, and alleged his daughter was posting "inappropriate pictures" of herself online.

Her punishment: she was banned from her Grade 6 graduation trip to Quebec City in June 2008, for which her mother had already granted permission.

The father — who had custody — withheld his written permission for the trip, prompting the school to refuse to let the girl go with her classmates.

That's when the girl asked for help from the lawyer who represented her in her parents' separation, and petitioned the court to intervene in her case.

"Going to court was a last resort," said Lucie Fortin, a legal aid attorney who represented the girl. "The question was that there was a problem between the father and the mother, and the child asked the court to intervene because it was important to her.

"The trip was very important to her."
Legal battle destroyed father-daughter relationship

A lower court ruled in the girl's favour in 2008. She went on the trip, but her father appealed the decision on the principle of the matter.

He doesn't have regrets, his lawyer said.

"Either way, he doesn't have authority over this child anymore. She sued him because she doesn't respect his rules," Beaudoin said. "It's very hard to raise a child who is the boss."

The girl — who now lives with her mother — doesn't have much of a relationship with her dad now, Beaudoin said.

"We went from a child who wanted to live with her father, and after all this has been done, they're not speaking anymore."

"We have a lot of work to re-establish a link between those two."

Beaudoin believes the ruling reflects a loss of moral authority in Quebec's court system.

"Is this what we want in our society? Laws are supposed to reflect our values. And if the courts aren't reflecting that, maybe the government will, to prevent children from going this way," she said Tuesday, adding her client may take the case to Canada's Supreme Court.

In its Monday ruling, the appeal court warned the case should not be seen as an open invitation for children to take legal action every time they're grounded.

all this over internet use and an excursion to the city? what is the world becoming! she's fucking 12 man, why on earth did the lawyer go ahead with her rash and juvenile idea.

intense exam.

2009-04-07T20:20:00.003-05:00

this is an intense week for me. i just finished my japanese oral. had to do a self introduction and i think i flunked it. i spent like 2 hrs drafting a super short introduction (cos i didnt know what to write) and had eliya looked it over for me. ok, that's over and done with.

there's a math test tmr. and i need to do 1 percent better in this test than my previous one to get a B grade. hopefully i can do it, but this topic is really hard - talking abt hamiltonian circuits and what not.

then there's the written final exam for jap on thurs. aarrghhh. im so going to stay in p hall and stuff myself with food while studying. but after this week, my next final is on the 17th. so i have abt a week to mug for pol studies. hope it's enough and that i wont waste it.

dyan in canada

2009-04-06T00:34:00.004-05:00

just found out dyan recently came to canada too!! just like andrea, she was my sjc classmate, but she was also my primary sch classmate!! not as close to her as i was to andrea tho.

i envy her ): she's in the happening city of vancouver, near Port Moody. sighhh. andrea and i are in our ulu pandan worlds.

bad day

2009-04-05T03:06:00.007-05:00

received mommy's care package today (: in it were a truckload of clothes that i left behind plus some new pajamas (which i dont wear, but nvm, i might need it next time), some laksa and chicken rice cooking mix cos i told her i miss sg food. alf will be my first ~~victim~~ honoured guest to sample my cooking when i move to avm! which will probably arnd the end of this month, so my address will be changing agn. too bad no hokkien meeeeeeeee~ mom sent some of my favourite jasmine tea leaves too. i dont like drinking those at restaurants cos its always too strong and not fragrant. home is the best! mommy sent an mp4 for me and alf too. some china brand but any mp4 is good enough for me.

anyway today i had dinner with alf at momo, and the korean boss was horrid. i just asked for some extra wasabi when the food came and he bellowed, finish the ones that is there first. erm, like hello, how much does wasabi cost? he wont be made a pauper cos i asked for some extra wasabi. anyway the chef at the sushi bar heard him and gave the boss a dish of wasabi to bring over. i told alf i will choke down all the wasabi! well, i finished the one that came initially, but not the second one. (hid some under those stupid ornaments that comes with the sushi. the boss sucks, but the food and waitress was great so i still left a good tip. no point them suffering for that assholic boss.

another stupid thing (which just happened) and i believe astha will revel in it with sadistic pleasure. that is, if she still reads my blog even if she takes forever to reply my email. hmph. a doorknob hit my lower back on the right when i was on my way out the door. the door was pretty heavy, being those fire-blocking types and closed faster than i assumed. )): hurts so bad i just hope it wont bruise.

was supposed to go to hk harbour for melody's bday with alf but i cancelled last minute cos i was busy catching on some Z's when alf called. yes, that explains why i am blogging so early now. plus there's work later.

remember how 1mil seems alot back in the days? i'm not sure if that was because we were young, or because the cost of living wasnt that high. but right now, i seriously think it's not enough. you buy a house, a car, pay the bills and it's already over the limit. look at petrol costs now. plus if you think about having kids, it's even worse. education, leisure and whatnot. it's a nightmare. i told my mom she wont have to worry about the future cos she will be staying with me even when i marry! HAHA i'm hearing potential husbands run away! like i care lol. still, i'm pretty sure i will still have heated arguments with her occasionally but hey, families are like that.

all women are masochists

2009-04-04T01:17:00.006-05:00

all women are masochists at heart.

we go through hours sitting in a salon for our hair/nails to be ready until our back is all stiff and sore. we put ourselves through impossible regiments for our impossible goal of attaining the 'ideal' weight. it's funny how some girls at 5 feet think 100 pounds is the ideal weight, and girls at 5'5" also think 100 pounds is the ideal weight. we invent contraptions like bra to defy age and gravity, even though some studies have said that bra is essentially useless in preventing that. seriously, ask any girl you know whether they like wearing bras. it's not a matter of liking it, but rather, getting used to it. oh and one more (i'm guilty of that too). we wear insanely high heels and torture our feet because it looks better: sexy, confident, longer legs, etc.

as for the last and final count, we are masochists because we fall in love with impossible men, and remain that way when logic tells us to turn away.

yes sir, i plead guilty.

damn misako.

2009-04-02T20:38:00.002-05:00

i've been kinda under the weather for the past couple of days. i think i got it the night i went to hk harbour from someone. tt someone was sick and i totally forgot abt it when all of us were drinking from the same cup for the punishment game. so, tt's my fault for not remembering.

but i also want to say, i'm a little pissed about the person not saying something like, "oh, but i'm sick. are you guys sure you want to drink from the same cup?" it's just common courtesy to remind others. whether i mind drinking from the same cup is another thing.

well, like alf said. better to get sick now than when finals come.

吳雨霏 - 愛你變成恨你

2009-04-01T00:28:00.009-05:00

yes, i havent been on msn much these few days, cos i dont feel like logging in.
A) dorm connection sucks and signs me out of msn so often, bloody irritating. B) i rather just watch my tvb shows or read my e-books. so dont worry i'm not AWOL.

this blog is still continually being updated. so what if i dont post every day (but i did for the past couple of weeks). my life ain't that happening. despite the previous couple of posts, that isn't my life. i'm actually in my room most of the time simply vegging on the bed.

i feel much better after installing the live traffic feed on my blog, at least i know ppl still visit this place altho they dont leave comments. yes, Uncle Sam is watching. *piercing stare*

mom called today and she was asking how i spend my allowance. i lied to her, saying i've been going out alot with friends. actually i spent it on the occasional shopping excursions that make my wallet bleed but no way am i telling her that.

this coming sunday and monday will be my last official week at work. unless, i sign up for those voluntary shifts. but i think not. i need to mug terribly hard for my pols studies finals which is on the 17th. my fault for skipping so much lectures last term. plus i havent been going for the seminars (which i can contribute abso-fucking-lutely nothing to) so i consider that 10% gone.

current song on this blog. i love it to bits!

不你太好　想你更糟

我仍未接受到

被被你突然就算宣佈　分手更好

當你待我好　該難忘程度

心頭如像被插刀　好到大慨沒有好報

似是個圈套　令捱難度更加高

不能懷念愛惜　不如懷恨更激

恨人亦要花氣力　例如恨你

為人自私也任性

我憎你不停來為我添加大量情敵

將鹹甜回憶

記恨你才能令愛著你也沒價值

直到令我的強烈愛意平息

想你太傷　不會設想

再懷念變孽障　就絕到亂誣衊你醜樣

毀懷形象　因你受了傷

憎你會有獎　想到缺點便拍掌

不要讓我面對真相　掛念似騷癢

恨才能令我輕傷

不能懷念愛惜　不如懷恨更激

恨人亦要花氣力　例如恨你

為人自私也任性

我憎你不停來為我添加大量情敵

將鹹甜回憶

記恨你才能令愛著你也沒價值

直到令我的強烈愛意平息

我愛你麼　我怕你麼

厭惡你方能夠不難過

憎你那過錯　憎你放棄我

再愛你嫌命長麼 !!

不能懷念愛惜　不如懷恨更激

恨人亦要花氣力　恨完就怕

如情隨宣洩絕跡

不停來為我添加大量情敵

憎完全被迫

記恨你才能令愛著你也沒價值

直到令我的強烈愛意

平息

clubbing

2009-03-30T02:11:00.001-05:00

HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY COREY!
(i'm late since his bday is 29th march, but i just woke up)

okay, so i ended up going out last night. there was hotpot at andy's place and dickson cut up the radish into letters that spelt ALFRED, plus some heart shapes. so cute lol. after that we went clubbing at Stereo 1) to have fun and 2) to get alfred and corey drunk.

and it was oh so fun! but i don't know if i'm lucky or unlucky. i ran into 2 of my supervisors who was there to celebrate a brother's birthday, and today at work, 4 other colleagues (i'm assuming they went seperately) said they saw me at Stereo. O.O winnipeg isn't small man. i'm even more surprised to run into anyone in such an out of way club.

as always, there's an after-party at jeston's apartment in Summerland. played some games which had some really ridiculous/hilarious punishments, courtesy of alfred chan's imaginative brain. anyway i'm a good girl! i went home early. david drove me home arnd 5am, took a shower and conked out until it was time to work and then conk out after work agn!
