DON'T YOU THINK HE IS THE CUTEST KOREAN?? :)

Profile:
* Name: 장근석 / Jang Geun Seok
* Profession: Actor, singer
* Birthdate: 1987-Aug-04
* Height: 182cm
* Weight: 63kg
* Star sign: Leo

Okay, so he could be the egoistic Leo but he's soooo cute. So we can overlook the possibility.

Catch him on 'Baby & Me' cos he's so superbly cute there. (Just that maybe the man voice as the baby's is quite inappropriate.) LOL.

OMG. My mind is in a mess now. Lappie is having MAJOR SCANNING; I feel like my husband is in some major operation where you'll most probably see me pacing up and down the corridor.

I'm not blaming anyone. I'm not blaming anyone.

Shit, I should have done a back-up. I should have done it. And I'm here because people are telling me to sleep on it but I can't because you don't sleep when your husband have an operation, right? And I was asking myself if I needed words of wisdom, comforting words or just sharing it will do (?).

I think I just want to share. And the best place, without getting anyone to comment so fast, in case it disturbs your train of thoughts, is here.

I just wish, hope that my elder brother never ever finds out, because I think it'll be as bad as losing all my work.

WHAT BAD TIMING.

PS: Still scanning mode (60%). *DOES AWKWARD TURTLE and walks away*

What's it like when you meet somebody who has a golden heart, speaks with such warmth, understands the slight subtle changes in the way you behave, open to talking about anything, has a pair of beautiful eyes that speak in a language that only your own eyes understand, wonders you with the surprises of his/her character and just seems to understand you in a way that makes you doubt your own understanding of yourself?

What comes with experience

2008-09-26T16:38:00.008+08:00

I was looking through some old pictures to send to Joyce and saw some nice old pictures to share.

An emo picture with Xiao Qian:

Yiling, with straight hair:

Grace (HOHOHO) (The only difference with the Grace-now is the teeth and.. the fringe?):

A really nice, cosy, but random class picture (but not with everyone in it):

The supposed unglam pictures of my classmates (but nothing unglam abt grace laughing though. LOL):

The help Jannah got just to do her hair:

Andrew Ang, who's happily in Philippines (I hope):

Now you must be thinking, Raudhah really loves her classmates, course etc. Well, I want to be mysterious and say, maybe.

But even hate is a form of love, right? LOL!

PS: No, I don't hate my classmates. In fact I think I'll miss them, esp during internship!

OHMYGOD

2008-09-21T13:16:00.004+08:00

I JUST FINISH MAKING (or is it baking?) HONEY CORNFLAKES!

They look like this:

Weeeeee! Maybe, just maybe, I'll bring some to the class "party". (:

But of course, mom and dad help me out. I just almost forgot to say. LOL. And oh, dad requested to have his picture taken as proof that he helped. So here you go:

Possibly, maybe

2008-09-13T18:13:00.011+08:00

I'm in love with Landon Pigg. I think that possibly, maybe he's too skinny and kinda scrawny-looking, but this guy is talented. Check out these videos.

CAN'T LET GO

A COFFEE SHOP

I think that possibly, maybe I'm falling for you.
Yes, there's a chance that I've fallen quite hard over you.

The loss

2008-09-10T22:10:00.009+08:00

Maybe I was too busy with work to notice... the loss of a fellow Prince from Coffee Prince, Lee Eon.

"Lee Eon, most recently seen in the drama “Strongest Chil Woo”, died in an accident this morning (21st Aug '08) in Seoul. The model turned actor crashed into a guardrail in Hanam-dong while riding his motorcycle on his way home from the drama wrap-up party.

Lee Eon, made famous by his lovable role in “Coffee Prince” won’t be easily forgotten. With a career that was just heating up, we haven’t seen much from you, Lee Eon, but we miss you already."
(Source: Seoulbeats)

Well said.

Rest in peace.

Actor and Model, Lee Un (Lee Eon / Eon)
Real name: Park Sang Min
5th February 1981 - 21st August 2008

Fate is created by yourself

2008-09-09T21:32:00.003+08:00

Currently, I'm watching Hataraki Man, a Jdrama. Every episode always starts and ends with a lesson about life.

For example, episode 6 talks about 'Regret':

"Koukai (Regret) - A sense of remorse after things happen. Are you living each day without any regret?"

"Regretting about things that have passed is too late. But, it's always better than living on realizing that they are regretting so much. Because there can be a new beginning from there on."

"Regret is not a bad thing. But to not regret tomorrow, we have to live today to the fullest."

It's just okay, but I like the career woman trying her best to remain femenine by eating food that can increase her feminine hormones approach. Lol.

And besides, Hayami Mokomichi is worth the watch!

Holiday Job

2008-09-05T21:00:00.010+08:00

If you still don't know, currently I am working as a telemarketer. As mundane as it sounds, it pays good money. (:

But of course, you've gotta motivate yourself to keep calling and calling despite the millions of rejections. Some people really don't realise that us calling them up is actually our job, and not for fun.

Well anyways, I've always made fun of the response that these people give me. Share them with my colleagues (Eva & Weiling) and laugh at these ~~stupid~~ people. Just to make me feel better.

I shall be nice and share it with you too!

Nicest rejection;
"Oh I'm so so sorry, but leave me out okay. Sorry..."

Funniest rejection;
"Sorry, I'm not interesting." (Still cracks me up when I hear this line.)

Scariest rejection;
"Ey, you better take my name out of your list or I'll sue you!" (Somehow this reminds me of Keith when we were in Sec 2, cos he always threatened to sue me whenever I wrote his name on the board. He'd go, "Ey, you better erase my name from the board or I'll sue you!" I wonder if he still does that...)

Most annoying rejection;
"Oh, she's not in" and before that I would hear in the background someone saying, "Say I'm not in, say I'm not in!"

Sorriest rejection;
"Don't you know that he passed away quite long already? Now you've brought back the memories... *Sobs*"

Cutest rejection; (I shall put the whole conversation here cos she's sooo cute!)
[R = Raudhah, SG = Small Girl]
R: Hello. May I speak to ***?
SG: Oh, my father is not in.
R: How about your mother?
SG: Huh? But my Nai-Nai don't know how to speak English.
R: No, no. I meant, your mother. May I speak to your mother?
SG: Huh? Mother is who?
R: *Secretly laughing*
SG: My father is working; my mommy is also working.
R: Oh. *Hahahahahahaha and thinking, how cute!* It's okay. Bye bye.
SG: Bye..

Suckiest rejection;
Remain silent... and waste my breath (cos I keep saying "Hello" over and over again)... then hung up only after a full minute. (What a waste of time!)

Angriest rejection;
(When ask to speak to owner's spouse...)
"Don't you know that she's single! Tsk! Bye la!" (Oh another thing about these people - they think that we know every bit of information about them. Like, HELLOOOO!?? Sorry ah, but fyi we can't read your mind over the phone.)

I guess that's all I can remember. My job kinda sucks and rocks, don't you think?

uptown girl

2008-08-31T15:04:00.005+08:00

Hey! It has been quite some time eh? I'm always mentally drained after a day at work and recently, I've been preparing for the fasting month (it starts tomorrow, fyi).

Anyway, I've just finished watching 'Uptown Girls', the movie starring Brittany Murphy. Even though I've watched it a few times already, there's this one scene that really touches my heart each time I watch the movie.

This is the very last scene of the movie. If you haven't watched it, the movie is about Molly, played by Brittany Murphy, who suddenly becomes poor and has to work for the first time in her life. So she becomes a nanny of Ray, this very adultish kid who always wears a sunglasses over her head. And the reason being, so that whenever she wants to cry, she'll just wears it over.

In the end, Ray accepts Molly, and in the video she actually dances like how Molly has danced. And all the guitars in the video belongs to Molly's father - she has sold them even though she didn't want to, but given her circumstance, she had no choice. It was bought by some anonymous person, so it could either be Ray or the singer Neal (by Jesse Spencer), who likes Molly.

It's just really really touching. Go watch it if you haven't.

Breakfast

2008-08-21T22:09:00.003+08:00

I'm loving this song!

Breakfast At Tiffany's - Deep Blue Something

You'll say that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don't care

And I said, "What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'?"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think, we both kinda liked it."
And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got."

I see you - the only one who knew me
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
So what now? It's plain to see we're over,
And I hate when things are over -
When so much is left undone

---

And if you really want to know, every day that I work is like a day spent doing 10 impossible Maths puzzle and at least 5KM after each puzzle.

But for the money, I'll persevere! Heh.

Gloomy Sunday, but not for me

2008-08-17T20:59:00.005+08:00

Gloomy Sunday

I got to know about the song from Grace's blog.

One thing for sure, the song does sounds gloomy. But at least not gloomy enough to make me commit suicide, or so the legend says.

"The song, written by Rezső Seress in 1933, was supposedly penned for an ex-girlfriend. The lyrics (which are said to be lost in the English translation, as the Hungarian language is known for its incredibly rich and basically untranslatable wordplay) tells the tale of a man who lost his lover to an untimely death, and plans to commit suicide. In some tellings, Seress’ ex-girlfriend was found dead, a week later, with a suicide note reading only, “Gloomy Sunday”.

The legend grew. One story went that a young paperboy who had everything to live for heard the song in passing and immediately threw himself into the Danube. Rumors about the song that hypnotized any who heard it into walking straight out of the first open window became became so pervasive that Hungary is said to have responded with a nationwide ban of Gloomy Sunday. It was just too dangerous.

...Rezső Seress often complained of depression. Gloomy Sunday didn’t help. Following the worldwide press of the song that drove people to their deaths, Gloomy Sunday became a hit, covered by more than 40 artists around the globe, in many different languages (including our favorite, Esperanto). But Seress knew he would never write a “hit” like Gloomy Sunday again, and the song hung like a weight around his neck, until his suicide in 1968. He lept from a window from his apartment, shortly after his 69th birthday.

...The legend of Gloomy Sunday has been hotly debated for years. It seems no one can agree whether it actually led to suicides or whether it was ever even truly banned from airwaves. What is known is that, until recently, Hungary had the highest rate of suicide in the world. And suicide was an almost accepted way out of a bad situation. When Gloomy Sunday was recorded, Hungary was in a deep economic crisis, and had just surrendered over two-thirds of their land following defeat in WWl. The country was poor, broken up, and the fascist party was making its way to the top of politics. Its no wonder that many Hungarians took their own lives, and surely many were found clutching notes with lyrics from Gloomy Sunday scribbled down; it is a beautiful and almost noble picture of suicide. “My heart and I have decided to end it all,” as the last line poetically goes."
(Source: Curious Expeditions)

Here is the version by Heather Nova (my favourite version too!):

Sunday is Gloomy,
My hours are slumberless,
Dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless
Little white flowers will never awaken you
Not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you
Angels have no thought of ever returning you
Would they be angry if I thought of joining you
Gloomy Sunday

Sunday is gloomy
with shadows I spend it all
My heart and I have decided to end it all
Soon there'll be flowers and prayers that are sad,
I know, let them not weep,
Let them know that I'm glad to go

Death is no dream,
For in death I'm caressing you
With the last breath of my soul I'll be blessing you
Gloomy Sunday

Dreaming
I was only dreaming
I wake and I find you
Asleep in the deep of
My heart
Dear

Darling I hope that my dream never haunted you
My heart is telling you how much I wanted you
Gloomy Sunday

Driving Manual

2008-08-16T13:04:00.003+08:00

Driving a manual car is NOT like Daytona!

But it's challenging and the thrill of driving one is sooo satisfying! Sometimes, I can't believe that I'm even doing this! (:

A Good Day(:

2008-08-14T20:55:00.013+08:00

Today is a GRREEAAATTTT day. (:

I had my first driving lesson in the morning. Though at first I had a mind-blank when the instructor told me to switch seats. You see, I didn't know that I'd be driving on the first lesson, so I wasn't prepared mentally.

But it turned out okay, and the best thing of all, there was no casualty.

After that, I went to school where it was the RUSH HOUR. We made some really quick last minute changes and, exported and burn into a dvd-r. All these to prepare for the screening and dialogue session with C@S$ director later.

The dialogue came first and it was bitching session! Lol. It seemed, all that was discussed/complained just now were already discussed/complained among the class. So basically, all of us felt the same way. (I don't think I said a single word, since whatever I wanted to say has already been said.)

Then the screening started. I was already prepared to be laughed at when my video was playing.

In my mind, one scene from 'Bad Habits' kept playing in my mind:

Woman: You will have to try a little harder, Sweetie. Let's give her a 'Boo'.

Everyone: BOOOOOOOOOO!

Scary shit, right?

The worst part was that, I wanted to pee really bad but I didn't want to miss watching anyone's video.

But lucky for me, after the first video (Aza's), I laughed really hard that I forgot about peeing.

Okay well, none of my spec dip classmates laughed at me. In fact, they laugh with me! It was such a nice feeling (and a great relief) that they actually enjoyed the video. A few even cried. Like, OHMYGOSH.

I'M SUPER SUPER HAPPY BECAUSE OF THAT. EVEN THOUGH SOME PEOPLE (NO, I'LL NOT MENTION WHO) PREVIOUSLY CRITICISED THE VIDEO LIKE CRAZZZZYYY UNTIL I FEEL LIKE TRASHING THE VIDEO, MY SPEC DIP CLASSMATES (WHO ARE OBVIOUSLY MORE PRO IN FILMING, EVEN AS AMATEURS) ACTUALLY ENJOY THE VIDEO.

Maybe in the first place I shouldn't think of the criticisms as bad, but just as different opinions. But the thing is, they're not constructive comments, you know.

And they really make me feel like shit. If they're people who don't matter, maybe it won't hurt that bad.

(If you guilty of this, I'd like you to know that I've forgiven you. Maybe you're comparing the video to a Steven Spielberg or something. Just Don't Remind Me of your mistake and Shut Up About It Already!)

Well moving on, Connie got me stuck to this song:

Am I Not Pretty Enough? - Kasey Chambers

Am I not pretty enough
Is my heart too broken
Do I cry too much
Am I too outspoken
Don't I make you laugh
Should I try it harder
Why do you see right through me

I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me
I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break
I crave, I love, I've waited long enough
I try as hard as I can

I laugh, I feel, I make believe it's
real
I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees
I hope, I stand, I take it like a man
I try as hard as I can

Why do you see right through me?

At Last!

2008-08-11T16:26:00.004+08:00

I suddenly feel so... FREE, that I feel like doing this:

Yes, the main diploma's projects are over and done with.
Yes, I didn't break down for any major presentation even though I can feel the tears sometimes, especially just now for !cmt.
Yes, now I can fully concentrate on my driving though there's really nothing much to do.

PRECISELY!

There's really nothing much to do now. The much waited break that I've been dying for. I deserve it. My group mates deserve it. My class deserve it. My course mates deserve it.

And we all deserve a pat on the back for surviving this. This survival is worth mentioning. Without each other, we won't be getting random 'Good luck's along the corridor; we won't be getting last minute tips from each other while waiting for our turn to enter a room full of hungry cannibal lecturers (just kidding here).

A big thank you to those lecturers who have helped us through this semester, especially R@jan. You've let us use your room as a storage for our !cm things, and let us print our million-pages report in your room. Thank you, thank you so so much.

But one thing for sure, I'M SO GLAD THIS IS OVER.

It's a good experience and the pressure is ohmygosh at most of the time. But I'm just really glad that this is over.

Now, for spec dip. Can we please please skip the screening on Thursday? What have we done to deserve this??!!

Boston

2008-08-10T16:01:00.012+08:00

Augustana, "Boston"
In the light of the sun
Is there anyone? Oh it has begun
Oh dear you look so lost
Eyes are red and tears are shed
This world you must have crossed
You said

You don't know me; you don't even care
She said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains

Essential yet appealed
Carry all your thoughts across an open field,
When flowers gaze at you
They're not the only ones who cry when they see you
You said

She said I think I'll go to Boston
I think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name
I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather
I think I'll get a lover and fly em out to Spain
I think I'll go to Boston
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind
I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset
I hear it's nice in the Summer, some snow would be nice

You don't know me, you don't even care

Boston, where no one knows my name
---

Maybe I should just go somewhere where no one knows my name too.

First, it's throat inflammation. Then it's runny nose. Now it's cough.

I'M COMPLETING MY FINAL YEAR PROJECT IN THE MOST STYLISH WAY EVER! WOOHOO!

PS: This is the 300th post! :)

Mucus Or Humus

2008-07-27T20:49:00.005+08:00

My new best friend:I bring it with me everywhere now. Make the mucus stop! Urghhh...

Talking about mucus, I got reminded of hummus from the Zohan movie. Hummus is actually a dip or spread made from cooked, mashed chickpeas, blended with tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and garlic.

But in the movie, they made it look like mucus or phlegm. So it looked kinda disgusting. And it sounds like mucus if you say it really fast. LOL.

The real thing actually looks like that:Looks yummy right? :)

Different Look Of The Same Person

2008-07-19T21:16:00.009+08:00

The same person can look so different in pictures.

For example, Kenichi Matsuyama (acted as L in Death Note):

His passport photos (I bet!);

Pictures with long, sexy hair;

With boyish look;

As L;

I wonder if you are that different in real life.

PS: I think he looks the best when he smiles. :) I think it's the lips!!

As you can see, I've changed my blogskin.

And I'm never going to watch superhero movies (like Hellboy, Spiderman, etc) in cinema cos' I just Dont Get It. SERIOUSLY. Like what's the point? Fantasy movies (like LOTR, Harry Potter, etc) are soooooo much better and have so much more substance.

Even if they are more unrealistic. :p

I'm not really an action movie junkie… but if you take 5 seconds to look at the Hancock promotional poster, the one posted in Cathay website, you'll actually see the Esplanade on his shades. And you won't see this (poster) in any other website!

What I'm feeling right now - after watching last episode of Samantha Who season 1.

"Bubbly" - Colbie Caillat

I've been awake for a while now
You've got me feelin' like a child now
Cause everytime I see your bubbly face
I get the tingles in a silly place

It starts in my toes
And I crinkle my nose
Where ever it goes
I always know
That you make me smile
Please stay for a while now
Just take your time
Where ever you go

I'm on the 12th episode of Samantha Who. Created by Cecelia Ahern (!!) and Donald Todd.

*Here is an original idea. What if we all had the chance to forget the transgressions we committed in our life up to this time? What would happen if you woke up from a coma not knowing the first thing about your past? Such is the premise of "Samantha Who?", a charming fantasy-comedy starring Christina Applegate, formerly of "Married...With Children". I suspect that most of us, given the chance, would probably not like a few things about our past lives, but Samantha, pre-amnesia, was a bit more unlikeable than most. Miss Applegate has progressed quite a bit as a comedic actress over the years, and her character here gets a chance to show her considerable comedic talents. There is promise here.*

From episode 12:
I was reading an article yesterday - by which I mean I was watching TV. And it says happiness comes from realizing which things in life you just can't control. And then controlling them. Even if it kills you. That might not have been the lesson; I was just flipping around.

Funny and definitely worth the watch especially after a long day at school. And the guys are hot! I mean, of course the guys are hot. :)

I just wish the season is longer.. Oh well. You can't get everything you want in the world anyway. At least, not in this world.

PS: Barry Watson (the eldest son from 7th Heaven) is playing the main guy lead! Damn #%@$ ^$%#!! Haha!

Omg it's 3am and I just finish the whole of season 1. Ahh I love it! <3

2008-06-17T10:50:00.003+08:00

Today I got an email from Adli, regarding something that I didn't manage to do. I was too late..

'Too Busy...

One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down.

It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers.

That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and listed what everyone else had said about that individual.

On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the entire class was smiling. 'Really?' she heard whispered. 'I never knew that I meant anything to anyone!' and, 'I didn't know others liked me so much,' were most of the comments.

No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. She never knew if they discussed them after class or with their parents, but it didn't matter. The exercise had accomplished its purpose. The students were happy with themselves and one another. That group of students moved on.

Several years later, one of the students was killed in Vietnam and his teacher attended the funeral of that special student. She had never seen a serviceman in a military coffin before. He looked so handsome, so mature.

The church was packed with his friends. One by one those who loved him took a last walk by the coffin. The teacher was the last one to bless the coffin.

As she stood there, one of the soldiers who acted as pallbearer came up to her. 'Were you Mark's math teacher?' he asked. She nodded: 'yes.' Then he said: 'Mark talked about you a lot.'

After the funeral, most of Mark's former classmates went together to a luncheon. Mark's mother and father were there, obviously waiting to speak with his teacher.

'We want to show you something,' his father said, taking a wallet out of his pocket 'They found this on Mark when he was killed. We thought you might recognize it.'

Opening the billfold, he carefully removed two worn pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped, folded and refolded many times. The teacher knew without looking that the papers were the ones on which she had listed all the good things each of Mark's classmates had said about him.

'Thank you so much for doing that,' Mark's mother said. 'As you can see, Mark treasured it.'

All of Mark's former classmates started to gather around. Charlie smiled rather sheepishly and said, 'I still have my list. It's in the top drawer of my desk at home.'

Chuck's wife said, 'Chuck asked me to put his in our wedding album.'

'I have mine too,' Marilyn said. 'It's in my diary'

Then Vicki, another classmate, reached into her pocketbook, took out her wallet and showed her worn and frazzled list to the group. 'I carry this with me at all times,' Vicki said and without batting an eyelash, she continued: 'I think we all saved our lists'

That's when the teacher finally sat down and cried. She cried for Mark and for all his friends who would never see him again.

The density of people in society is so thick that we forget that life will end one day. And we don't know when that one day will be.

So please, tell the people you love and care for, that they are special and important. Tell them, before it is too late.'

I was too late. I just thought of visiting you this Teachers' Day.

Thank you for everything, Mr Tan. I don't think I've said that word enough to you.

Rest in peace. May God bless your soul.

I hope you are where you want to be now.

"Fall For You" - Secondhand Serenade

The best thing about tonight is that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core

But hold your breathe
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find

This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start

But hold your breathe
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It's impossible

So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I'm yours to keep
And hold onto your words
Cos' talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When your asleep

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find

Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find

Being happy is when you're feeling warm and safe but on the same time the apprehension of walking on thin ice, as if it will disappear any moment.

Anyways, Danial came down on Labour Day.

I'm just done with Soulmate. Best Kdrama - I love the way every episode is done. I love the concept. I love the characters - a balanced mixture of funny and witty characters.

And one of the main female lead looks like Gina, especially in the first episode where she was proposed to in the train in front of everyone and was forced to say yes. She has that retarded look then, very much like how Gina would look like in those kind of embarrassing situations. LOL.

watchhh

2008-04-11T23:00:00.006+08:00

I'm watching:

Who Are You kdrama, starring young star Go Ah Ra (the girl in the picture). She's super talented and still freaking young (only 18 this year!).

In the drama, like many kdramas, the supporting actor Jin Yi Han is so much better looking.

---

Fated To Love You Twdrama, starring Chen Qiao En. I remember her from Prince Turns To Frog. The drama looks like it has similar story line to PTTF and even the main guy, some Ethan Ruan looks like the guy from PTTF.In the drama, she plays a girl known as the sticky note girl who was constantly bullied by her colleagues. Somehow (you've got to watch to really know what happen) she ended up having one night stand with a V V rich guy (the Ethan Ruan) and even got pregnant with his child.

2 strangers who got married for an accidental bump, with the guy's girlfriend complete kept in the dark about this. I can't wait for the rest of the episodes to be uploaded!

Summer Scent is another great Korean drama. I think it's the first one that I watched. Great storyline with a lovely ending. (Click the title for more info)

School is in a week's time. Even though many lectures have said a lot of scary things about being a Year 3, I feel kinda excited for the semester to start.

Gosh. Somehow, I can almost heard someone saying, "Be careful what you wish for."

OMG XIAO QIAN AND I HAD MAJOR, SEVERE HEART ATTACKS JUST NOW EVEN THOUGH WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE VETERANS IN APPLYING FOR GEMS. KINDA IRONIC, RIGHT?

Well anyway, we tried registering with all three choices but the thing just bloody didn't want to process! We were panicking on the phone - it was damn scary ah.

"OMG. It's 10 minutes already!" We were more stressed after that.

We tried registering with other random GEMS but the results were still the same. We logged out and in again but Still. The. Same.

Then, XQ came up with an ingenious plan. Since we were both using FIREFOX, she suggested that we used INTERNET EXPLORER instead to register for GEMS.

And it worked. So people, use IE for ANY school stuffs, especially GEMS.

Grace just told me to enjoy my last few hours.. LOL. Why does it sound like I'm dying?

Well anyways, thanks for all the wishes, gifts and treats, guys. The cake and singing of the birthday song is really quite embarrassing, but somewhat touching. Apparently I've had this long post to thank you guys, but it's not appearing. Don't know why also.

People say age is just a number, but growing older is really quite scary. The responsibilities and expectations that come as part of being an adult are what I'm scared of most.

Yet, I've got to live with it. The thing that cheers me up is that, at least, I won't be alone in this.

proposal

2008-03-16T22:49:00.002+08:00

Okay, I've just checked - Ubaida haven't updated her blog about 14th.

I was at Vivo Sky Park (that's what it's called, right?), enjoying some tidbits we bought at the supermarket there. Out of the blue, Ubaida suddenly said, "Sweet nye!" (aka "So sweet")

When I asked her what she meant, she pointed to a group of adults sitting near us. All of them seemed excited about something and they kept looking at the couple a few rows in front of them.

"They're going to surprise her."

Yeah right. I was pretty pessimistic then. I think it's the pre-pms. But anyway, I just kept looking at the group and the couple. In the group, one of them had a bouquet of flowers and another had a video camera. The couple was looking at a laptop - I think to watch some video the man made for the woman - and the woman had a headphone on.

Both Ubaida and I was watching so intensely at that time and we were waiting for the man's next move.

As though on cue, he dug his hand in his side pocket and took out a small box. He opened it and then...!

"Omg, he's proposing to her!!"

Well, that was from the both of us. We thought it was just some birthday surprise, seeing that there had been 3 birthday celebrations while we were there. So it came as a surprise when he proposed. We almost teared watching the whole thing. It's so much like something out of drama, just more realistic. Awwww!

So right after the man proposed, the woman hugged him, implying an obvious 'Yes'. That was when the group of adults went down to them and surprised the woman further. Good thing she didn't have a weak heart. The whole lot of them sort of 'Boo' her, with one of them giving her the banquet and the another recording the whole thing.

My only regret is that I did not follow my instinct to go forward and congratulate them. I really think the man is sweet and really wants to impress the woman by preparing everything to make the proposal so special. Seeing that he had gathered 6 of their friends to witness the proposal shows that he had to plan the proposal way beforehand so that their friends could all make it despite their different schedules.

I really hope they last till their dying breath. :)

KOREAN MEN FOR MY FRIENDS (Part 1):

Being the good friend that I am, I shall introduce some Korean men for them.

Meet Lee Min Ki, Suave and medium-built. (He's quite slim actually - doesn't really show in the picture though.)
Xiao Qian's type. (Even though she's currently attached and unavailable, I really think she should reconsider the choice mentioned.)

Meanwhile Jung YunHo is totally Grace's type.Boyish and cute. Awww.

The hardest to find is one for Yiling. See, she has err unique taste in men, so thus I was quite worried that I might disappoint her. But in the end I still found him.

Mortifying Moments

2008-02-28T19:23:00.002+08:00

So I'm back. With Dunkin' Donuts, a pair of pants and an "ordered" tops from there. Lots of tidbits and now I have a bad throat. Well, actually, it's more of a sore throat getting from bad to worst. It definitely doesn't help that I like really sweet things. Especially this week, I've been having a lot of sweet stuffs because I'm stressed/tired/cranky after work and eating these sweet food made me feel better. A lot better.
---

The Journal of Mortifying Moments by Robyn Harding is a MUST READ BOOK. I know, that's what I probably tell my friends (who bothers to listen) about the book I've just finish reading. But this is seriously Good Stuff. For the first time, I actually didn't want the book to end. I was feeling quite sad that it was coming to an end.

It was just so darn funny. I think I'll read it again before returning it to the library.

In the book, the main character, Kerry was advised by her therapist to keep a diary of past encounters with men that may be contributing to her current negative and dysfunctional quasi-relationship, or aka the journal of mortifying moments. Her first post goes like this:

In a Truth-or-Dare game, a guy whom Kerry had a crush on at that time was given a choice to either kiss her or answer a question. The question was, "How many times a day do you touch your willy?" The guy who seemed to be on the verge of tears in the end answered the question, "Thirteen".

Told ya - So Darn Funny.

Or that I met the Girls again yesterday in an impromptu manner? Or that I'm rushing to JB to visit my relatives there? Or that yesterday I took a 3hour bus ride and another hour to go home from Jurong East? Or that I think I might miss my Team 9?

Gosh. So many things happen.. I'll update when I have more time. Off to JB then! Tadas.

From "My Sassy Girl" the movie,
"Chance, for those who are willing to try, is building a bridge of fate for your love."

"Waterboys" is great too. Little brother remembered watching them though.

Just now, I thought I was going to miss doing my Final Theory again. If any of you remember, the last time I was supposed to take it, I didn't bring my I/C so I wasn't allowed to take it. They said my school Ez-Link was not an identification. Maybe they're right.

So anyways, I thought I was going to miss my Final Theory because I was late. When I reached my bus stop, on the way to the centre, on impulse, I decided to try a new bus route I just figured out. In the end it was much longer than I'd anticipated. I half-ran+half-jogged to the centre once I alighted from the bus.

To make it worse, a couple of good looking guys walked pass me and gave me THE look. I guess I was pretty much looked like I needed a good long sit on the toilet bowl. I think there should be a law to ban guys from looking at girls like that. As if we are born with a constipated look and they're shock anyone live their whole life with that face.

Well anyway, right when I reached the bus stop, a teenage girl around my age got out of a taxi and ran straight into the centre. I was so envious of her, because, unlike her, I didn't dare to ran. Even with the little dignity left in me, I still want to enter the exam room NOT panting and perspiring.

So I started walking (faster than my normal walking rate though) once I entered the centre. Boohooo for me, the room was on the third floor. I've never seen any lift there before so I had to take the much dreaded stairs. Urgh.

Yada yada yada. The end of story is that I passed. On my first attempt, even though it was my second booking.

I'm not too sure about the next step though. Cash is a problem because I don't want my parents to be paying for me. Come on! I'm already going to work and all soon, so why rush? That's why I didn't apply for the Driving Practical Test after my paper.

Now, what am I going to waste my time with? I have TWO AND HALF MONTHS WORTH OF HOLIDAY.

exams

2008-01-31T22:02:00.000+08:00

EXAMS ARE OVER!

Gosh, how many times have I repeated myself? Hah.

Anyways, I had the TMOL just now with the girls. We managed to convince Grace to come with us. Lunch at Siam Kitchen, shopping at Bugis. Great company on the way - with talks of bras, crazy petty shopkeepers and etc.

More talking after XQ left for ice-skating. Then Grace left soon after that, and more serious talks with YL.

That was when I realised that an Iran couple , who were sitting beside me, started taking picture of us. First time, we decided to ignore them and let them take us while we were talking. Then after a while, the man asked us to pose with his wife. And another picture with him. Nice couple, they even bluetooth-ed the pictures to YL when she asked for them. I was too shocked that I was just thinking, "How weird, how weird." Strange things happen, but all are good things.

My feelings are justified - I really miss them.

A MUST WATCH!

Well, in the end it wasn't so much of a "must watch". It's just a 3.5 out of 5. The movie is more of a cute movie with chipmunks and jokes that don't last out of the cinema. If you get what I mean.

After I was out of the cinema, I tried to remember the most funniest part of the movie, but somehow I couldn't. All I could remember is that Alvin is the only chipmunk with an alphabet on his shirt.

Never Let Go

Can you lay your life down, so a stranger can live?
Can you take what you need, but take less than you give?
Could you close every day, without the glory and fame?
Could you hold your head high, when no one knows your name?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say.

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Can you lose everything, you ever had planned?
Can you sit down again, and play another hand?
Could you risk everything, for the chance of being alone?
Under pressure find the grace, or would you come undone?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say?

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

At 19, the teenager decided to hitch a ride from his friend's bike. He was going home from campus.

Or so, he thought.

He didn't make it home - he got involved in an accident and had his last breath in the hospital. His father is now rushing back home from Dubai.

May you rest in peace, Cousin. Amin.

OMG TELL ME WHY DO I FEEL naked EVEN WITH MY CLOTHES ON?

That's because I've lost my two best friends, Red and Smooth. I feel so incomplete now (kind of cliche, I know) especially ever since I've confirmed they're lost just now.

I hate feeling like there's something amiss and not quite right.

I MISS MY rings DEARLY!!

PS: I really hope tomorrow goes well.

Have you ever eaten or seen a pizza with cauliflower on it? Well, I've just had a couple of slices of it, and it sure tastes as good as any pizza. And since it's homemade, it tastes better.

Sorry, no picture to show though. By the time I wanted to blog about it, it has already been devoured by us. LOL.

My baby you

2007-11-24T14:28:00.000+08:00

As I look into your eyes
I see all the reasons why
My life’s worth a thousand skies
You’re the simplest love I’ve known
And the purest one I’ll own
Know you’ll never be alone

My baby you
Are the reason I could fly
And cause of you
I don’t have to wonder why
Baby you
There’s no more just getting by
You’re the reason I feel so alive
Though these words I sing are true
They still fail to capture you
As mere words can only do
How do I explain that smile
And how it turns my world around
Keeping my feet on the ground

I'm still sad that Marc Anthony (the Malay Singaporean version) didn't even get through to Top 6. HE SOO DOESN'T DESERVE THAT, YOU NUNUNU. But ohh! Freekzy Nutz are soo damn cool. and Sp Dance too. I didn't know they're so good.

2007-11-15T11:11:00.000+08:00

Lucky me had a consultation with a cute doctor. We had weird conversations like:

PART ONE
Doc: "I hope you don't mind me asking, but are you sexually active?"
(At first he was looking at me but when he was saying the second part, I noticed that he tried to busy himself with some notes on his table.)"

Me: "No."
(Of course I felt like LOL-ing but in the end I just smiled to show that I'm really okay with him asking that question. LOL)

PART TWO
(I was on the "bed" and he was pressing my lower body to check if I have any pain there.)

Doc: "Any pain here?"
(He was pressing right at my stomach.)

Me: "Yes."

(Doc looked kinda concerned.)

Me: "Oh that's because I haven't had breakfast."
(I thought he would laugh but he didn't.)

PART THREE
Doc: "So do you need MC for today?"

Me: "Yeah."

Doc: "How many days would you like?"

Me: "Two days would be good."
(I was overjoyed. I never knew doctors are supposed to ask their patients this kinda question. I always thought they're the ones who decide on this.)

Doc: "Okay. Two days then. But of course, if you feel that it's getting worse, then you can always come back to me."

Me: "Oh yeah sure."
(Well, that's the truth. Haha!)

I really think there should be more doctors like him. Then people will actually enjoy going to the doc's.

Anyways, I asked him if I'm having insomnia and he asked me questions like if I stayed in bed for a few hours before I fall asleep, if I'm stress at school etc. To all questions, I said, "Yes". Then he told me that he will not give me medication first but he'd advice me to:
1. walk around the house and watch TV AND
2. drink a bit of milk (not a full cup; maybe half a cup or lesser should be sufficient.)
if I still can't sleep after 15 minutes in bed.

Well, of course I'm sleeping well currently. But to friends who aren't, heed the advice above yeah?

Presenting, the NATURAL POUT.

Aka Danial Shah, my cousin.

Now he has curly hair!

Apparently, he's also an aspiring photographer, like me.

These are the shots that he took:

He was amazed at how tiny his feet was against ours.

Part of brother and his face

Considering that he is not even two years old, he's not bad. He doesn't even have shaky hands!

But of course, I took better shots.

You're born to break hearts, Dani.

quotessssss

2007-11-07T21:10:00.001+08:00

I came across some nice quotes just now.

“Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.” ~ Anonymous

“Man can live about forty days without food, about three days without water, about eight minutes without air, but only for one second without hope.” ~ Anonymous

And one from me:
"No one is forcing you except yourself."

And remember, what other people say are just advice, not guidelines.

You know, recently, I've been observing the clouds more closely. I just like to see the shapes and they always remind me of my brother's hair. (Well, his hair is curly btw.)

And of course, I didn't miss the chance to take pictures of them.

(A closer shot of the previous picture)

There are a few things i forgot to mention yesterday, like:

This is my new (Chinese) name.

I bought 'Ting-ting', D0nut Fact0ry and a new bag today. Career fair wasn't so bad just now, and after that, I had lunch with the usual great bunch of people. How much better can my day get, as a compensation to not watching P0kem0n and waking up early?

I just can't seem to think of any. :)

Hari Raya has always been the occasion for forgiveness.

So, since I'm neither perfect nor flawless, I'm sorry for everything that i ever did, if it hurts you in any way possible.

And that, is for all my friends, regardless of religion.

To my Muslim friends, Selamat Hari Raya. To my non-Muslim friends, have fun watching TV - there are a lot of good shows on public holiday. :)

Today.
School was okay - really, just okay. You know, the average day. A few laughs here and there, some common school stress and feeling tired all the while.

But after that, I went to buy the PHONE. W660i, red. :)

Anyways I feel like talking about The Singer whose songs are a major part of my teenage life.

She is

.....................

..................

...............

............

.........

......

...

......

.........

............

...............

..................

.....................

(hmmms, the sweater looks a lot like Gina's right?)

If you still don't know, she's Tat@ Y0ung. Well, she's not exactly pretty-wow but at least she doesn't have a black armpit or something that bad. hah! The thing I like about her is that she doesn't try too hard to impress other people - she doesn't starve herself since she's obviously quite plump (but not fat-plump; she's skinny-plump which is alright.)

So back to her oh-so-impactful songs. I talking about songs, 'I Believe' and 'Cinderella'. Maybe it's luck - I'm not sure - but I performed on stage (not alone, of course!) with the songs on two separate occasions! Both times, I was with my Guides friends. It was in year 2004 but I'm not sure with one happened first. If I'm not wrong, it was the latter.

It was during my Secondary School's first carnival. My batch decided to join the performance by dancing to the song, 'Cinderella'. Imagine, about 15 girls on a small stage (just for the carnival, there was a stage built beside the canteen) dancing to a fast song, trying to make use of the small space around them. It was quite bad because I remembered I almost fall off the stage. But other than that, I really enjoyed the dance practice and Jo, my batch-mate and also the dance choreographer, was a great 'teacher' - she was very patient with us amatuer.

That time, the lyrics was stuck in my head for quite some time.

I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
Don't want to depend on no-one else
I'd rather rescue myself

As for the other song 'I Believe', my Guides mate and I sang to that song. Can you believe it? Me, the first and future female Singapore Idol has sang in front of a large crowd at such a young age!

Okay, fine. Stop puking, will you?

Right. So it was at the first combined Scouts and Guides Campfire (actually, the first campfire we Guides ever organised since we were quite new - mine was the fourth batch, if i'm not mistaken.)

Well, we sort of volunteered ourselves during the meetings when we were discussing about the programmes. But you got to admit, not every one has the guts to make a fool of themselves in front of strangers who are potential future classmates. (and true enough, Joseph was one of them, but i doubt he remembers my fantastic singing skills.)

(I'm not sure if you can see me. I hope not!)

Our theme for the campfire was the Medieval and thus, the castle backdrop. Everyone was feeling high - like we usually do in campfires - and I hope they're too high to even notice the fantastic singing. I started the introduction - the five of us decided on the name 3M2C (3 Malays, 2 Chinese). Lucky, Nura was there (she won 2 singing competition. Impressivem, huh?) and there were 2 other microphones (Irra paired up with Jess, and I, with Veron). The four of us were trying our best to let the audience sense our stage presence (by swaying and doing the hand gestures, as you can see in the pictures.) so we weren't really singing.

Which is a good thing, because we were avoiding ear-bleeds.

The whole thing was just so much fun. And the best part was seeing everyone else dancing and singing to the song, and the applause after we were done. If I'm not wrong, there were people requesting for an encore (or was I imagining it?).

I just wish I had savour these moments more.

Once lost, it's hard to get back. And even if you do get it back, it'll never be the same as before.

knocked and doyou

2007-09-27T05:29:00.000+08:00

This song (below) is stuck in my head since forever.

Just a quick update about school so far – it was a roller coaster hell of a day. But there was definitely more ups. I can't really remember much about Tuesday but I think it was okay. Monday was just filled with embarrassing moments. Like, TOTALLY. First-day-of-school blues, I'm sure.

And I like the fact that many lecturers like my class.

Do You

Maybe this decision was a mistake.
You probably don't care what I have to say.
But it's been heavy on my mind for months now.
Guess I'm trying to clear some mental space.
I would love to talk to you in person.
But I understand why that can't be.
I'll leave you alone for good I promise.
If you answer this one question for me.

I just wonder,
Do you ever,
Think of me,
Anymore, do you?

And so I heard.

Cousin Mohsin will be interviewed (live? I'm not sure about that.) on Sur1a's 8pm news tonight. Just check it out, if you have time. Apparently, he'll be asked about Ramadhan and some youth group (I forget the name. Hehs.) that he is leading. And besides, he's quite good looking. That is, if he hasn't changed much from the last time I see him, which is about 2-3 months ago.

Oh, I passed BT yesterday. Family treated it as though I just passed my O's or something important.

Tak sia-sia Ayah doakan. Okay, how do i say this? Hmmms. and Brother bear-hugged me. A couple of times.

Happy family. :)

sometimes, reading makes you feel human.

tears of anger and disappointment, of sadness and loss, now i remember why i didn't continue reading the sixth book.

well, but now that i know the ending, i'm more than ready to read all of them. and i've been looking for hints of harry getting together with ginny. hehs.

poseidon

2007-09-03T22:19:00.000+08:00

poseidon. so it started with random introductions of the characters. when i say random, i really mean ANYHOW. one moment there would be this scene of a woman looking around for someone and the next would be of this couple acting quite intimately with each other. what's the link? i saw it only after all the characters had gathered. it was confusing at first, i must say.

then, there was this thing that i hated the most about the movie - the tsunami thing happened too early! i was still confused about the characters at that time and WHAM- the tsunami thing hit! there was no story to sort out my confusion. it was like having the laksa gravy without laksa. it was frustrating because there was no foundation of the story. i thought i wasn't going to enjoy the movie. (and i wasn't wrong about it)

after half an hour, the real action started. so the people shown in the random introductions were part of a group who wanted to find a way out and didn't want to just wait for the rescuers. funny how only (about) TEN people cared about the way out and a hundred over were only sitting on their asses, crying and praying for a mysterious exit door to appear in front of them and bring them to the nearest land. stupid lazy asses. hehs.

so coincidentally, in the group, there was a fireman-turned-governor, a ship person, a nurse, a national swimmer and an engineer. oh wow. what a great coincidence! with that, they used their expert knowledge to find the way out.

the ending was like armageddon's - father and fiancé debating on who should go and sacrifice their life; daughter-fiancée crying and begging both not to do the task. and oh - you should know this part - the father decided to sacrifice himself.

thus they got to the exit. just before they jumped, they saw a life guard boat nearby. oh, how convenient! oh man..

in conclusion, i've decided to give poseidon 6.5 popcorns, despite the not-so-great beginning, the lack in character development and the suspicious ending.
