Yo i last blogged about a week ago haha. Did not blog on MY birthday though. What a selfless bighearted nice girl I am.
No lah actually I was too tired. Working at a 24h place is no mean feat. But it was a nice birthday. I got presents that I liked.
1. Dragon egg with my birthday and birthstone on the shell
2. Darlie toothpaste (yay!)
3. Swiss bakery double brownie cheesecake
4. Bottle of citrus vodka thing to celebrate my legalised drinking (red face yes but no uncontrollable laughing this time)
5. Interesting day at work :)
Organising a fun fair for underprivileged children at a child care centre. Pretty small-scale lah but still... Again this holiday I presupposed to be full of wondrous joy in front of Nickelodeon and gang did not materialise. It seems I watched more during term than during holiday. Coz now there is entertainment outside but during term that is our main source of home entretainment, which explains for the decrease in TV watching. Owell... Rambling begone! Nvm I SHALL find a time to relax. However, cannot quite forsee such a period. There always seems to be something to do. So many things I fantasised about doing during the holiday are still hibernating, waiting for me to rake them up. I have not
1. Cleared my table
2. Cleared my shelf
3. Cleared my cupboard
4. Decided whether I should apply to tutor students this holiday or... haha
5. Decided my future
6. Picked up a new skill (or rather any new skill)
7. ..............

Happy Birthday Evon!
Today is Evon's birthday. Duh. Dun have much of that anticipating, tingling feeling though. Maybe u need the rest of the family to be there to each contribute thier own brand of corny familishness to add that warm fuzzy feeling of nostalgia. Or is it cornish familiness? -___-
Yea shan't talk about the presents. I trust that she will blog about it herself. Together, I must say the variety is rather astounding seeing as it ranges from $5 (from me) to (i'm guessing) more than $50. There is one word to describe such spending (extravagant). But it looks damn nice all the same.
Lonely. The whole world is in Malaysia eating but I'm stuck in my homeland doing homeland stuff (working). I have yet to spend an uninterrupted period of time doing nothing. I dun wanna be busy doing something. I wanna be busy doing nothing. I know I'll surely be damn sian after a while so I shan't be fussy. A few days will do (consecutive).
Ok shan't go on bemoaning about life. It is a happy happy day (or it is supposed to be). Woohoo.

Hi All,Nice puzzle - try to crack it ...
Once there was a bus conductor, who was very rude to his passengers.One day a beautiful young girl, of around 18 years, tried to board the bus,but he didn't stop the bus.Unfortunately the beautiful young girl came under the bus and died on thespot. Angry passengers took the conductor to the police station, who inturn took him to the court.The judge was not at all impressed with him and gave him capital punishment.
He was taken to the electrocution chamber. There was a single chair in thecenter of the room and a single banana peel at one corner of the room. Theconductor was strapped to the chair and high voltage current was given tohim. But to everyone's amazement, he survived. The judge decided to set himfree, and he returned to his profession.
After a few months, this time, a good looking middle aged womantried to board the bus but the conductor didn't stop the bus.Unfortunately,this time also, the good looking middle aged woman came underthe bus and died on the spot.Again angry passengers took him to the police station, who in turn took himto the court. The judge took one look at the conductor and gave him capital punishment.
The Bus conductor was taken to the same electrocutionchamber where there was a single chair in the center of the room and asingle banana peel at one corner of the room. He was strapped to the chairand high voltage current was given to him. This time also to everyone'samazement, he survived. The judge decided to set him free, and he returned to his profession.
A couple of months later, an elderly gentleman tried to board the bus. This time the Bus conductor, remembering his earlier experiences, stopped the bus. Unfortunately the elderly gentleman slipped and died due to his injuries. The conductor was taken to the police station and then to thecourt, to the same judge. Though he hadn't done anything wrong, but considering his past record the judge decided to set an example and gavehim capital punishment.
The Bus conductor was again taken to the same electrocution chamber wherethere was a single chair in the center of the room and a single banana peelat one corner of the room. He wasstrapped to the chair and high voltage current was given to him. This timehe died instantly !!!!!!!!!!!The question is why didn't he die on the first two occasions, but diedinstantly the third time??
Try to solve it yourselves. This is rather interesting and answer isperfectly logical. If necessary read the puzzle once again.! Still you couldn't, Then see below.........
think hardtired....
wanna know the answer????ok........ there is the Answer............
During the first two times, the conductor was a Bad Conductor,therefore electricity didn't pass through him. But during the third time,hewas a good conductor, so electricity passed through him freely and he died!!!!!!!!Ha Ha Ha ha !!!!!!!! Obviously you gotta revise your science chapteron Electricity ???OK, OK....Relax.....No violence please...!!!!!!

Yay. Was tagged by Evon on 24th July 2006. I'm not that terrrible. At least it is still within the same year. Boo yah (Idunno wat that means but it sounds funny).
7 dreams before death
I dreamt that I set TJ on fire. Yay! Oops. Wrong kinda dream.
1. Be well known for designing something.
2. Own a dog farm (designed by myself) after I have an established clinic and mega pet store.
3. Open a restaurant. Actually I am more concerned with the design but, as well, I suppose I'll have to serve good and unique food too. But I'll worry about that later. My dream restaurant has an underwater conveyor belt or ytracks for boats, which carry the food like in sakae sushi but it is on boats. Yay to geniosity! Oh dear, now someone may copy my idea. No actually I think such a restaurant already exists, just not in Singapore. NEVER MIND I'LL BE THE FIRST SINGAPOREAN TO THINK OF THIS CONCEPT! YAY ME!
4. Own a damn smart collie and golden retriever and that snoozy will be toilet tranined within the next few years.
5. Be a world traveller.
6 Hold and organise charity acts and performances (Yea gasp all you one. t.G.o is t.K.o the kind one too).
7. Choose a nice, unique coffin and burial ground if I plan to be buried, choose a nice pot for my ashes and if I choose to be combusted or choose a decent organisation to donate my organs or cut up my body for BodyWorld if I decide to go that way.
8. Can I choose one more? Yea thank you. Diagnose accurately, invent a cure and treat many people from all walks of life. Noble.
7 things I cannot stop doing in this lifetime
I think I have to add besides eat, drink breathe.
1. Worrying.
2. Thinking.
3. Talking.
4. Playing.
5. WATCHING CARTOONS AND COMEDIES AND OTHER THINGS WITH A DRY SENSE OF HUMOUR LIKE NICKELODEON. Woo hoo.
6. Sleeping. Yea that IS under an essential but I dun think I qualify for that. I sleep more than is essential. I will die if I do not.
7. Oh dear. I'm gonna say this. Grocery shopping.
7 things that attract me
1. Colour. I once walked blindly towards a colourful looking thing, before realising that it was Happy House. No wonder my companion asked, shocked, "Where are you going?"
2. Nice music. Like Evon always tells me,"Never buy anything from shops which play lousy music." So true.
3. Cartoons.
4. Dry humour (like Nickelodeon).
5. The Campbell Reece Biology textbook I think
6. Documentaries like Animal Planet, National Geographic and Discovery Travel and Living.
7. Animals.
7 things I say
I am a solemn one. I do not speak. I think. Nah. That is only true to some people. At home They say I talk too much. Apparently my voice has an anaesthetic effect.
1. Wah lao.
2. Haha (yea that means fake laughter).
3. Iowno (I dunno warbled into one word).
4. Shit (the most useful swearword).
5. Damn it (the second most useful swearword).
6. Bloody (a useful swearword when angry when situation disallows or makes inconvenient usage of other socially intolerable or unacceptable words).
7. Wat the helllll (Wat must be spoken with a slight squeak. Make the hellllll nice and long, rather like an exaggeration).
7 movies that I loved
1. Charlie and the chocolate factory.
2. Pirates of the Caribbean Curse of Black Pearl.
3. Pirates of Caribbean II Deadman chest thingy.
4. Dodgeball.
5. Shanghai noon or whatever Jackie Chan choreographed and acted in.
6. This is hard. I really dun watch alot of movies. Usually short sitcoms, shows or cartoons. The pacifier. No make that the Jimmy Neutron movie.
7. Mulan? The Incredibles? Lilo and Stitch? Wat other funny, dorky and corny shows have there been in the world?
7 people to tag?
Well I dun have much of a choice. Spare me.

hello. just honing my writing skills before i get started on writing my testimonial, or rather, my Singapore Graduation Certificate. Or maybe i'm just trying to delay doing work as i have been this past week. again. They're now training us to shamelessly boast about our achieveents in school. they told us not to undersell nr oversell ourselves to the extreme. yea right. i'm not going to tell them i only went for about 5 tuition sessions in my bp mentoring when everybody else went for, what, 20. talk about integrity.
why does evon's blog always sound so happy? oh, yea, shes not in singapore, that's why. i think i'm mad. i dun do alot of work. but i'm stressed out. weird. think i think too much. realise ive saod this alot of times. well, believe it or not, i do. but civics on wednesday has enlightened me. there is more to life than just academic figires and grades. but just a little more. my tutor told us about 2 of her friends and 1 of her students who just lost it. boom. 2 of her friends snapped. 1 pf them went for a while but is now leading a normal life, yet that life isn't anywhere near her academic qualifications. that is, her would-be academic qualifications of she hadn't snapped. it is not a life which most would work towards as she is now working as a clerk i think. but at least she is leading a decent life and is mentally sane and still has a future in which she can survive. i think. the other went permanently mad. she is still mad. sweet girl too i heard. the student... single pointer, went to TJ (which i find tends to make people more mad than hey have to be) and went mad. couldn't do well in any exams (like me) was ok the next year where he retained, smiled alot during chem lessons and was diagnosed mad again.
makes you wonder. could i be the next one? i think i could have been if i hadn't known about those cases. oops. have to write my cert now. toodles. haha

Hi I'm BACK!
Read my past few blogs. Feel abit embarrased when I read them. Maybe coz it's my own.
Failed my bio test. Kinda expected. Not happy about it though.
Read about Evon's endorphin-stimulating agents (chocolates). Dunno whether it really works.
YAY! PAP WON! WOO HOO! But I think competition will only get tougher.
Oh. Ya. Need to cut my nails. Going for attachment tomorrow. At Biopolis. Our course is to determine the structure of proteins. Like, what the hell right. ??????? Electrophoresis?
Snoozy is so cute. He'll be perfect if he doesn't pee. People should invent somethins called "anti-pee. The Choice." Or something like that. Yeah but that would be stupid. And cruel. All the owner has to do is to heave up that pee-filled thing and unzip him somehow and just let it flow. Eeew. Like I was saying, Snoozy is very cute. He understands what we say. Not the words, I'm guessing, but more of our tone and body language. That day he walked me to the door and wanted to follow me. Then i said, snoozy NO. STAY. WAIT FOR ME AH. Then I went downstairs to meet my friend to collect maths tutorial. When I reached home, HE WAS STILL AT THE DOOR IN THE SAME POSITION STARING AT OUT IN ANTICIPATION FOR MY ARRIVAL. All the same, a few droplets of pee were found hanging aroung the grille.
Oh! It's 10! Will go eat and sleep. Need to relax. I believe I stress myself more than is necessary. YYEEEAEEAEAAEAEAE!!

Tay, your sense of humor is Banter
Like a king of pinball, you've made an art of playing off of people because your sense of humor is all about banter. Like many great comedians before you, a roundtable of friends, or a roomful of targets, is the catalyst for what makes you laugh. It brings out the wit — and sometimes the nitwit — in everyone. It's quantity, not quality that matters as you and your friends alternate outbursts like the riffs of a hit single. Here's the bottom line: You're a social creature. Other people's inside jokes even strike you as funny. You manage to gravitate toward people who can appreciate a tall tale and you've probably never hesitated to fire off a zinger — even in a roomful of strangers. So keep it up with your bantering methods. Laughter, after all, keeps the world going 'round.

Haha. Firstly, yea that's me. Super cute. Haha I'm personally not a fan of act cute poses. But well, like I said, I'm not in favour of acting cute. But being naturally cute? That's another different matter. I mean, I've always known that I'm a good-looking chap (yea I know it's for guys), but to be honest, I never thought I was cut out for photos. But... there you are... all cute and cheerful and sunshine looking. So pleasing to the mind, body and soul. Actually the first (and, in my opinion, most disgusting) photo was me trying to act innocent but Yi Ling said,"Ok! OK! Stay like that!" and stay like that I did. Eew.In the second photo (right) I was originally covering my face in a half-hearted attempt to shy away from the camera. Den Yi Ling said,"Do a peekaboo!" and do a peekaboo I did. Beautiful. Turned out so sweet and innocent-looking. Can go charm little kids and cheat them. Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Of course, I won't deny that under the cool, emotionless, yet beautiful facade, an innocent character exists.
And then of course, the third picture shows me smiling of my own accord. I try not to let people manipulate me. For example, I won't peekaboo for the camera when people just ask me to. No way.
Haha left snoozy outside for more than half-an-hour today. Papa didn't like it. Snoozy didn;t appreciate it either. He barked loudly at the door so that it would open. Then I said,"Oh shit! Snoozy!(in chinese. I was saying it to monster)" den ran up the stairs as fast as my long legs would carry me. But Papa was too quick for me. He grabbed Door and pulled it open. The moment it was open, I sqwuaked,"Snoozy!" and he ran into my arms. Den we hugged each other and cried and everyone cheered and clapped.
Actually, he ran to my legs and bit me.
He hugged my leg though, to keep it in place so that he could bite my pyjama pants. And he cried for being left out for 30 minutes. And PA and MUM scolded me. And Mummy said,"Wow! He's very smart ah! He knows how to bark to let people know he wants to go in!" Well, he's a living thing and living things respond when they dun like something, so...
Ah well, he was so cute. Though he bit me.
Den we played catching (after he hid under the sofa and we ignored each other for a few minutes) and i ran after him trying to steal the green ball from him. Ran 3 rounds around the living room. Tiring. Den he went to sleep. Still sleeping under the sofa.
Evon misses us. We're ok. I wish she were still here tho, so that I will have someone to discuss chem and bio with. Told my friend that I wanted to marry my bio teacher (NOT kickass) den I'll be able to discuss "bio freak" stuff with him. Yea. My new nickname is bio freak (dedicated to me from my class). So disgusting. They're just jealous. I mean, so many nicknames correspond to that lor. Genius, professor and 'You Are The Smartest Person In The World!' (YATSPITW!) are all suitable names for me...
Done! Papa told us not to pose in pyjamas anymore. Why? We looked nice. Ah well. All in the name of fun and haha.

I hate my new principal. I detest her. I abhore her. I loathe her. Not to mention her sidekicks who have to pretend to support her to protect their butts. That woman does the glorifying stuff and leaves all the shit for the sidekicks (DM and VP) to say. She is the one who gets to sound nce and understanding ("I just want to undertsnad what YOU think. What are YOUR versions of the story. I believe you people are intelligent, kind, moral, full of integrity, decorum and kindness... so I don't want to scold you. I want you to see me as a friend, not a disciplinary figure. Instead. I shall leave the scolding to my sidekicks, so that you can dislike them and like me instead while i portray a nice understanding image of myself.") Fine, I added on the last sentence by myself. Supporters may argue that students just do not understand discipline and are out to defy any rules laid out for us. Nope. The students that people see today are plasticine figures moulded by our environment, in other words, our educational environment. Modern education has taught us to have opinions, to think for ourselves and not to follow blindly. That's why students are so fussy these days. They are sharper. They can spot loopholes, good educators and bad educators (yea I know good and bad are very vague but they encompass everything) much more stringently than the, sorry, robots of the past. You see, how a message is put across depends very much on tone, body language, facial expression and phrasing and less on content. When a person, in this case the educator, tries to put forth his or her point, kids of today can, generally detect the genuity and sincerity of the speech. Telling us you want to be a friend is empty. Show it. Not that I was a big supporter of the ex-p. However, there was something in the way she presented speeches that captured the audience's attention and made us believe that she meant what she said, even if it had just been empty talk. There. The importance of tone, body language,facial expression, eye expression and phrasing. That is one thing I have to admire him/her alot for.
Students (or me, at least) do not detest discipline. Many, in fact, still sway towards being conservative. When we don't like, or rather, do not respect a particular educator, it is not because we do not like the discipline imposed on us. There are way more than a handful of teachers that I alone know, who are strict, uphold strong and sometimes even rigid, moral values but are able to establish strong teacher/friend/student relationships with students. Now how are they able to that? By the most important reagent in any person to person relationship: sincerity. Think about it. Yea, of course it's easier said than done. I'm probably very fake to some too. But I try to think, so many people have done, are doing it and can do it. Why can't I? One of my current teachers is a rather strict and in a way, rigid person, yet that teacher is able to make us listen and uh, obey, effortlessly. Just by being herself. Sure, there are many more examples, just that it would take too much space to list every single one of them out.
So, anyone who wants to an educator, or ahem, has a passion for teaching and serving the community, reflect and think. If you have to put up a front and be fake to TRY to make people, in this case, students, like you, then you're probably in the wrong line of work or merely going about things the wrong way.
Lastly, sorry this entry is so unorganised.

Tay, you remembered 86% of the information in the Memory Test.
But research shows there's a lot you can do to improve your memory. And if you do, it can help you function in more ways than you'd think. There are 6 main types of memory, which help us interpret and store different types of information. You scored highest in numeric memory. That kind of memory allows you to remember things like phone numbers, numerical addresses, and dollar amounts. You probably also have a knack for recalling people's birthdays, phone numbers and important dates in history, too. But this represents just one of the six categories of memory that keep your mind sharp and allow you to function every day. How well did you do in the other areas? How can you improve your memory to make life easier and keep your brain active? What does the way you process information say about you?
Tay, your Key Motivator, the thing that really drives you to success in life, is Connection.
Based on your answers about values, past behaviors, and internal priorities, we can tell you are most fulfilled when you're interacting with others. You connect to the world through your connections with people. For this reason, you seek social attention and are apt to join groups and organizations, either formal or informal. You, more than others, look for ways to belong to a group, to have fun, to care for others, and occasionally, to be the center of attention. You thrive when you see the opportunity to interact with friends, colleagues, and family, and you tend to want to soak up everything you can about people and relationships. Perhaps it's because you recognize that learning about interpersonal dynamics will, in turn, make you a better person — more caring, more empathetic and more honest with yourself.
Working to better yourself as you go through life is a powerful goal. Your personalized Motivation Report will show you how to live a fully enriched life using your key motivator, Connection.

Recently I've been thinking alot. Not that I do not normally think alot. Recently I've been thinking alot more. Yeah you must be thinking, 'What?! She thinks so much already! She can actually think some more?! I can barely cope with that much thinking! Wow!' Anyway, like I said, I've been thinking alot.
You know the phrase 'Live like there's no tomorrow'? Well, it's supposed to imply that every individual lives his life to the fullest and experience everything in case he doesn't get to do it if he dies the following day. I used to be a believer of the phrase myself (Note: believer is not the equivalent of practiser or whatever you call it). Recently, while I've been thinking alot, I found the phrase a little extreme, bordering on greed (I'll give you 5,4,3,2,1,0 seconds to think about it). Yea? Well, living like there is no tomorrow brings to mind (my mind, at least) a typical Singaporean family at a buffet, elbowing people out of the way to get to the best food first. A typical Singaporean family eats like there's no tomorrow, works like there's no tomorrow and complains like there's no tomorrow. Well, considering that's more or less life in Singapore, then in the Singapore comtext, we do actually live like there's no tomorrow. OK, maybe I went a little out of point there. However, I still think that the above inspirational quote is a tad overenthusiastic.
I do think that opportunitiesshould be grabbed and people should not forgo chances for later regrets. Still, I think a more appropriate phrase would be 'Live each day like you're living it a second time'. Think about it for a while. Imagine you've just had a shit day (made all the wrong decisions, the decisions got you into shit, making another decision got you into deeper shit) and you've ended miserable and reflective at the end of the day. Of course, that has happened to me before. In fact, more than what many would think. Often, I'd sit in front of the mirror at my doorway and reflect (my day. Not my face. Though that's a nice reflection.) and think how much I'd want a second chance to relive the day. Then I would be able to make all the right choices and do things the right way. So now, when I need to make a decision, do something I don't want to do, do something I am supposed to do and the like, I would think of myself at the end of the day or week or period of time, miserable and thinking how I wished for the day to repeat with me doing all the right things this time. Of course most people are wary after they have made a mistake once and tend not to do it again. Bearing in mind that you could have already lived that shit day and here is a second cahnce for you to relive it in a better way, you'll be more likely to make every decision with caution, lest you regret it again.
Does it sound too confusing? Just thought it was an interesting thought and wish to hear your views on it. Perhaps this will inspire some (like I said in class. I'm inspiring) yet look dubious to others. Whatever. Concluding is not really my forte. So. Bye.
