If you guys have me on facebook, and actually saw my Japan pictures, these will look familiar.

Today I learnt that you must never invite an ex to your wedding. Compliments of 'How I Met your Mother'.

Too much unsolved business will mess with your head!

And I learnt a few other things. Like, do not ever go swimming or touch the sea in sentosa, ever again. Because I stepped on a barnacle, and my foot bled, and WTH it wasn't even very deep.

Of course, there were other instances, like how Cindy went into the water and her ear got infected and swelled to a size of a watermelon. And how Pearl stepped on a stonefish and her ankle got so swollen she had to get the pus sucked out, or something like that.

Holy shit.

But, on the other hand, I am going to Seoul! End of july. For once there is a happy ending to my blog entry. Haha!

And also, since my internship is over, I get to do tuition full-time. So if you know anyone who needs tuition, just let me know!

So today was the last day ! Kushin bo was kinda ok yesterday. Don't know why so many people recommend it though, I found it mediocre.

Their soups were kinda nice though. But their teppenyaki stuff... ew. overcooked imo.

Anyway. Went to old office today to celebrate Alden's farewell. That guy can't even drink la. Melodie left her jacket in my bag. Well done! Then... of course the reason why I blogged this is because..

I almost got kissed by a lesbian! :O

Well. I was dancing with a friend, not dancing together kinda together just next to each other in our own worlds, then this girl dances with me, so I dance right. And I notice that these guys are trying to get closer to us and all. So I tell her "Eh, be careful, I think they're trying to dance with you" so I switch places with her, but she insists that I should be the careful one instead, then we switch back.

Then she says, "Lets do something that will completely chase them away."
Me, "What?"
Her: "Like, this"

And she holds my cheeks and leans closer to my face and I know that she is going to kiss me so I move my head away.

Not that I do not like lesbians, just that I prefer to know a girl first before anything happens right! But actually, I do have a preference... and she didn't fit that preference...

If you know what that preference is, please keep it to yourself :P

Then this bung girl like, grabbed her away from me and then they start making out. I go like, ew, then just turn back to my friend and dance (who, btw, has another girl who danced with him) and then suddenly the old girl is like "Help me! Save me from her!"

Me: "But you're the one who made out with her -.-"
Her: "Help me!"
Me: *grabs her and dances with her instead*

Then the second I turn away, the bung grabs her again and they start making out. I give up la. HAHA. Oh well, not like I'll ever see her again.

Ok, this was so important, I am wasting sleep time on this.

Am hungry. Goodnight world.

In Claire's world there is a section of good thoughts, and a section of evil thoughts.

And of course, a section of emo thoughts. Which is the most dormant of the 3, but the most deadly.

How can it be more deadly than evil thoughts?! Because evil thoughts will fade away once good thoughts reason out, but emo will just be emo... until somehow happy thoughts push them away.

So I really wanted to go overseas. So badly that I almost went to Sarawak to be a 3rd wheel while my soon-to-be-couple friends were staying in a room together.

But I didn't.

And well, something finally good happened in my life that really made me excited and happy and everything.

Until it is 100% confirmed, I will not reveal it here.

And as for TT Alerts... next week ok? Promise. This weekend I am quite busy. Urgh.

Everyone should push emo thoughts aside ok?!??! Be good. :)

I was involved in my Hall play this year and I was one of the random people on stage!

I don't know what Interim Seraphim means.. but my brother sent me a bunch of pictures I took with his camera and here are some pictures.

My jaw dropped, my brain screamed "HOLY F*" and I am now shivering in excitement. (Also from the cold. It is too cold here)

Tim Burton is producing Alice in Wonderland. F*. It's mind blasting. It's coming out in 2010 and I am going to pay ALOT to just catch it. Holy shit I am so excited I can't think coherently. But I did research on it.

"Work is underway on Tim Burton's decidedly un-Disney adaptation of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," and the principal cast has been announced. The latest additions to be made public are Anne Hathaway (pictured above), who catapulted to fame in "The Princess Diaries" and will reportedly portray the White Queen, and Crispin Glover (center), who is coming off of "Beowulf" (and was so memorable in "Back to the Future") and is slated for the Knave of Hearts role. Johnny Depp (right) is the Mad Hatter in a movie that Burton told me he hoped would have "a gravity that most film versions haven't had."

The filmmaker turns to Depp a lot, of course, (this is their seventh project together) and he also is steady in his screen devotion to his partner, Helena Bonham Carter (pictured below, at left) who will be the Red Queen in "Alice." (Burton's movie, like the 1950s Disney adaptation, will apparently combine the Queen of Hearts from "Alice's Adventures" with the Red Queen from "Through the Looking Glass," but that's a conversation for another day.) The title "Alice" role belongs to Aussie newcomer Mia Wasikowska (middle picture, and you can see some photos of her in the role in England in September right here) while British funny guy Matt Lucas (pictured at right, of the U.K. sketch show "Little Britain") will play the rotund dimwits Tweedledee and Tweedledum. Lots more to come on this film...."

Taken from here.

Who the hell is this prick that is playing Alice?!?! Why can't they get like, I don't know, some cuter looking girl who screams Alice?!?! How dare she star next to my favourite actors who totally rocked Sweeney Todd?!?! What the f*!!

If she ruins this show for me I will draw all over her face and print it and paste it all over the walls... of my room. And shoot daggers and darts at her.

Check this out. (pictures)

It looks... dark. I love it already. Can't you tell how awesome this movie is going to be?!?! (don't think about Alice.)

I don't care if it gives little kids nightmares. In fact, make it NC-16 just so those screaming un-appreciative children will not get in the way.

:(

Sorry, really too excited.

I dreamt that I went to Thailand. To go shopping, get a manicure, spa, massage, explore the place, go crazy with shopping, buy shoes that are 200 baht. I dreamt I would go with people whose company I enjoy and then we will have a blast together.

I also dreamt that I went to Bintan and/or Tioman. Lazing on the beach in my bikini that-has-never-been-worn-before and maybe going for a spa. And then lazing more. Maybe play some Monopoly on the sand. And snorkelling! Looking at pretty corals and small fish. As long as I had a turquoise blue sea, I was happy.

A recent dream, dreamt that I went to Korea. Meeting up with some of my friends in Seoul, stuffing jajangmeun in my mouth, ordering take-out, oogling at Korean guys on the street, maybe do a little shopping because it's too expensive. Going to Jeju island to see how they film Korean dramas! And of course, with awesome people who are interesting and will make the vacation really fun.

Then I woke up from these dreams and found out that I have one dream that will turn into reality.

Which is my boss trying us to Kushin-bo tomorrow for lunch.

Whoopie!

Holy shit. I am going to be a bit late to give tuition again, but I really need to blog this out.

Guess what I dreamt of last night?! Ok wait, you can't guess because there will be like, a million and one options.

I dreamt, that I had my very own backup singers blabla, and we were singing AND dancing to...



(I hope you watched that in HD)
Holy shit. Yes, I repeated it. And in the middle of the song, instead of the rap, we went to grab some random DBSK guy and got him to do the dance too. I don't even know who the other dancers were, but all I remember was all of us dancing to it together. Urgh.

If you don't know who DBSK is, it's 'this korean boy band who sings japanese songs too.

I am so obsessed with japanese and korean stuff, I am actually dreaming about it. Woah.

If you want to watch a super good quality video of the dance (and meanwhile see hot korean people in the audience) at the Blue Dragon Film Awards (wth is that?) It's here. Watch HD ok.

Today's topic for me to think about while I was bathing... why I want a Coach bag. Hmmm.

Because... C is for Coach! And the prominent symbol for Coach is the.. C! Which stands for Claire! Of course, there also IS a brand called claire's. But I when i checked out the stores, they don't have bags with the brand Claire written all over it. Bleh. Actually, some of Claire's stuff looks like it can be found in Thailand. Sad.

There is also... Chanel. But currently, since I am a poor measly student, I cannot afford to be decked in Chanel gear.

So Coach will have to do for now. But it is so common!! I see sooooo many office women carrying them! It is depressing! Since I want to be different, I will get...

A COACH KEYCHAIN. See, it has the brand name, and it isn't commonly used by office people.

Then... I will get a Hermes bag. Which is 15k. Which is not happening anytime soon.

I dream.. in the shower :P

So the day starts at 8.30am, or sometimes 8.45am. Punch in, sit down, switch on the laptop, switch on stuff that you're supposed to work on... wear the blazer that is on my chair, start doing some work.

When nobody is looking, log into msn or meebo, greet the other interns that you know from other companies. Ie, Fay, Kuo Howe, Cherlyn, Alden. Talk to fellow Singaporeans at work who are the only sane people who would be awake at this hour, Ie Christine, Adam. And greet people who are on the other side of the world who may or may not be online Ie, Jimmy, Wong, Shane.

And continue doing work, meanwhile alt+tabbing to chat with friends.
Around 10 plus or 11 plus, I will make myself a cup of milk tea because it is a little cold. Sip the tea slowly while doing work...

At 12pm, my other colleagues, Iqbal, Leo, Johnny and Patrick will come over to the other room and whisper to us (or im us on msn -.- ) to complain that they are hungry and that we should go for lunch.

Sarah will say "ok 5 mins" Then 5 mins later they will come back and haunt us until we leave. Punch out. Walk to either:

1) This coffee shop with cheap mixed rice (damn nice curry chicken!!), also has duck rice, wanton mee, claypot rice, and fish sliced soup which always has a queue.

2) Nice but a little bit ex $3.80 Chicken rice

3) Really fatty duck rice.

4) Bak Kut Teh $5. But damn shiok. Pigs trotters damn pepper-y. I die after eating man. Need 2 cups of milo.

5) ARMY MARKET!!!

Omfg, Sarah and I realized just how near army market was yesterday. We spent like, 20 mins walking around the place, ooh-ing and aah-ing at the variety and how good everything looked.

Patrick bought fried kuay teow from this damn atas looking store with a long queue. It was really good! But the $3 and $4 no difference in quantity loh. Seriously.

In the end, I ate lemon chicken rice, which was damn nice and crispy because he fried it in front of me. And Sarah ate some noodle thingy which was nice too.

While we were walking around, I wanted to eat tang yuan, the barley ginko nuts dessert, waffles and to tapao muffins for everyone in the office.

After we finished our respective foods, we were so full, 3 of us shared one bowl of tang yuan.
WHICH WAS HOMEMADE AND BLOODY GOOD! It was sooo soft, and the peanuts literally oozed out. Omfg.

And we postponed the rest of the food to tomorrow. Which is today.

But we didn't go to the army market today.

Why? You ask. BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING!#<@$(*#$ And we forgot to bring umbrellas. It rained halfway through.

Damn depressed la, because of that, I can't quit yet because I am so desperate to try the waffles. They look AMAZING.

Yes, I am a foodie.

I have digressed. After lunch, return, punch in. A while later, all of us will start to feel sleepy...

Then I will make another milk tea for myself. And then... go to the toilet many times.

7pm I knock off, and punch out.

Highlight of the day: Lunch.

Boy, do i love lunch breaks.

Wow, Cristiano Ronaldo and Paris Hilton? Seriously? Actually... since both of them like attention AND money at the same time... I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later.

I wonder how their babies will look like. I guess we might finally get to see how Paris Hilton's real nose looks like. Hmmm.

Did any of you know that I was once, crazy over Cristiano Ronaldo, one of those crazy girls gushing about how gorgeously hot he was...

And then I saw a picture of him dressed up in a suit, jeans... looking amazingly hot... and slippers. Bloody hell. He ruined the image I had of him.

That's how I started to get more sleep instead of staying up with my dad (his reasons for watching are of course, very different from mine) to watch soccer matches.

I didn't (and still don't know) a shit about football/soccer. No offense, not that I do not like the sport, just that I was watching it for the guys instead of the game. Especially when a certain C.R took off his shirt.

Instant nosebleed please!

Oh, and if you also check out that gossip site (which Sarah introduced to me, thanks babe.) You'll also see this post.

Paris Hilton is looking for BFF's around the world. Again. I have to admit, those shades look hot.
I will watch that reality series, because after Friday, I will be a very, very free girl.

Anyway, can you imagine what would happen if you became Paris Hilton's BFF? Holy shit. I can only imagine. Glued to her side, smiling for cameras, enjoying free passes to anywhere you go...

paparatzzi's following you everywhere..

hmmm. Tough choice.

Sarah gave me this website of her friend's ex-girlfriend's blog, and told me that she does nothing all day but travel. WTH?! She is a bum. And her parents supply her the money for it.

These kind of people exist in Singapore. Envious.

Off to lunch. Urgh. Hungry.

TT Update: Thank you for sharing E's lingerie with us. It was very entertaining. And frilly. For those who weren't invited to the party last night, I'm sure MeTube videos will show-and-tell.

Here's one of the scenes that happened last night, that WASN'T captured on film.

---

Megan, having one drinks too many, sitting with 6 other random guys from school. She is clearly drunk, and is having trouble fending off 2 guys from touching her like, everywhere. The other guys are enjoying conversations about soccer. Urgh.

M: "Stop it guys!" *weakly pushes them away*
A: "Haha, what's the problem Megan? Not so strong anymore, are you?"
M: "What.. did.. you.. guys.. put in my drink...?"
B: "Nothing that you don't deserve. Come alonggg Megs, we'll take you for a ride"
*turns Megan around, walks off towards the car*

Nate: "Where do you think you are bringing her?"
A: "Mind your own business, dude. She's my girlfriend."
Nate: "I know for a fact that she is not."
A: "She is dude, go away!" *pushes him*
Nate: "Okay, then what does she like to eat?"
A: "Uh.. Chocolate?"
Nate: "No, she's ALLERGIC to chocolate. She likes to eat Ben and Jerry's. Everyone knows that. I'm taking her from you"
A: "No, we didn't get her like this just so she could be stolen by you. Get him guys!"
*fight*
Nate: "Don't hurt her!"
*Nate gets punched more*
*Guys get bored after a while and dump Nate and Megan on the floor*

By now, Megan is a little bit more sober, and tries to help Nate up.

M: "Thanks Nate... I'm so sorry..."
N: "It's okay.. I'm glad you're fine... Let me take you home alright?"
M: "Okay." *smiles* "Oh, by the way, how did you know I love B&J?"
N: "I know you better than you think!" *laughs* "Ow that hurts."

The room is in shock. Then everyone whips out their cellphones and snaps pictures of Elle's ripped dress. It still looks stylish though, but who can resist photos of a visible thong, right?

Elle is still frozen. Ian comes to his senses and runs towards Elle, takes off his suit jacket and throws it over Elle. Fortunately for her, it is big enough to cover everything. Everything vital, that is.

Kristen, Elle and Ian strut out of the party, make a beeline for Elle's Volkswagen Beetle and off they go.

Kristen is seen calling someone on the phone, but that someone isn't picking up. Hmm. I wonder who she might be calling, and what the person is doing right now...

---

At Megan's doorstep, Nate says good night. Megan gives him a hug that lasts just-a-second-too-long and gives him a peck on the cheek that means just-more-than-friends.

---

The next day, Elle paces anxiously up and down the basketball court, hoping to "run into" Ian. And... of all the luck in the world... she gets seen by Paris.

P: "Wow, if it isn't the lingerie model of the year. Here's my gym instructor's namecard, you should go for a workout dear, it'll be better for your business."
E: *is about to retaliate when...*
Ian (voice from behind Paris): "I think it's much sexier than a certain Paris that I know and just broke up with. *glares at Paris* Lets go, Elle."
*Ian grabs Elles hand and pulls her away*
*Paris is left looking like a sad loser*

---

Elle and Ian... walking back together.. How sweet. They talk awkwardly at first, then they slowly reach the topic of Paris... and how Ian feels Paris is really immature and how he is drawn to Elle's charm.

They reach Elle's doorstep, and Ian hugs her.

*Beep!* TT Alert: Is Ian already over Paris? Looks like it's been confirmed guys. Will Paris let her one-true-love slip by so easily? We're eager to find out.

---

Elle opens her door and lets out a gasp. Ian hears her gasp and looks into the room.

It is a mess. Books thrown everywhere, notes torn, fresh, red wet paint on the wall spelling 'THIEF'. Even Kristen's side of the room is not spared. Elle rushes to the cupboard to open her wardrobe.

Her clothes are not there.

She notices the open window... which was suspiciously wide open, which normally is never the case. She looks down and sees... her clothes. In a heap. Drenched with.. some brown liquid. Ew.

On her table... or what's left of her table, there is a pink post-it with the words...

<3,
P.

DRAFT OK! Brainstorming. It's kinda in point form, kinda in prose? Dunno.
But it is still copyrighted by me!

Elle walks from the Arrival Hall of Changi Airport, decked in full Tokyo-Shibuya gal gear.
Clad in knee high boots, long brown hair curled to perfection, a pretty white dress, Elle is seen grabbing a cab with her luggage and suitcase. Welcome home, Elle.

---

Elle joins her best friends, Kristen and Megan at their favourite joint, Timbre, where they chat about the Winter/December break.

Kristen is a slim, pretty girl with red highlights and a killer smile.

With mixed Spanish, Phillipino and Chinese blood, she has the best assets from the West and East put together. Another plus is that she can speak basic French. Too bad she already has a boyfriend, Nate, who have been dating for 10 months.

Megan, is your typical cute Asian chick, with jet black hair and almond-shaped eyes.


She is the quieter of the 3, but is the silent observer that nobody should ever underestimate.

Updates! Kristen and Nate went to America, San Diego together for the holidays.
Elle was in Tokyo, Nagoya and Akita, enjoying Disneyland, Hot Springs, and drinking with new found friends.
Megan was in Singapore, working as a bartender and had free drinks everyday.

The three of them chat, have a laugh about events, and decide to head to a club.

---

At the club, Megan bumps into one of her newfound friends she met at the bar, Paris. Everyone gets introduced, and Paris sees Ian walking by and introduces Ian as her boyfriend.

---

The next day, Kristen and Elle wake up in their respective hall rooms, and they get a text from TT: Tattler Times - a website where anybody can just post their spotted rumours and scandals.

Tattler Times posts a photo of Paris with another guy walking hand-in-hand into a hotel together!


---

Ian breaks up with Paris and Paris cries.

---

Ian is at the basketball court shooting some hoops to blow off some steam, and a while later, Elle walks past, on her way back to hall.

They chat for a while "She is so possessive!", and Ian feels a little happier now that Paris is out of his life.

---

Megan, Nate and Kristen are eating in the cafeteria. Nate surprises Kristen with Crispy Dream doughnuts and Kristen is mega happy.

Nate and Kristen have a crazy PDA session while Megan tries to ignore it.

---

Just as Ian and Elle separate, Paris spots Ian and apologises, tries to win him back but Ian violently objects.

---

At night! Kristen and Elle are in their hall room. Midnight, they get a knock on the door - Ian. He brought drinks, and chats with them until 4am.

---

TT Alert! Photo taken of Ian in front of 41-4-771 which also happens to be Elle and Kristen's room.

Paris is furious.

---

Paris finds Elle and Kristen at a mutual friend, Victoria's Birthday Party. Elle is wearing a long, pretty, white satin gown that reaches until the floor.

Paris: "Stay away from MY Ian"
E: "He's not yours anymore"
Paris: "He is mine. Get real."
E: "Just about as real as your nose job is!"
*Kristen and Elle turn around and start to walk away*
*Paris steps on Elle's dress and it rips*

*click!* The sound of camera sounds resound all around the 3 of them.

TT Alert! Guess who's wearing black lacy thongs tonight? At least they're from Victoria Secrets.

END.

Okay I think some bits are abit cliche. Hmm, but it was a 5 min draft ok! Try to find out who's who, which are the truths which are the dramas. Haha! If you know the people well enough, you should be laughing through this instead of criticizing :P

It started with me dreaming of Dominic, about us getting married. WTH? Where did that come from? Must be because I saw him at Lynn's Farewell BBQ on Monday. But, why the sudden dream?!? So strange. But it was a sweet dream. And Doms says it wasn't my first time dreaming of us getting married.

I honestly, don't remember the previous time. Hmm.

Ok whatever, so I reach work late, the bosses are there, the whole Internet connection for the entire office (except the wireless, we have one cable one wireless network) is down. So I see Patrick and Leo trying to fix the thing, and I have no idea what's going on except that I am suddenly laptop-less.

We are also conducting training, so I act as receptionist for a while.

When I manage to grab a random laptop, I start doing some work, and then Bob calls me out to have a word with me.

Sarah was like OMG and told Patrick and Leo (who were in the back fixing the wires), and I was just *shrug*, ok. What's the worst that could happen? I'd get fired, that's all.

He asks, "How do you find work here, Claire?" (He always asks this question whenever he talks to us. That's the only other time he talks to us apart from asking us to DO stuff) Then we chat a while, I state explicitly that I would like to do more things that could help my Accounting background right (Cos all I do now is saigang) and he says, "blabla.. Sarah is doing a great job.." Ok, basically, he doesn't want anyone else to touch the accounts. Sounds dodgy.

Then, Patrick and I corner him to ask him whether the both of us can head to Suntec City to buy his laptop. We promised we would:

1) Only go after we had done our work for the day
2) Not shop for our own personal stuff while we were there

And so he relented. But added that the earliest we were allowed to go was at 3pm.

So lunch break came and went, everyone was so interested to find out about the conversation.

Came back, Patrick and I chionged to finish our work for the day, and luckily, we finished it exactly at like 3pm. Told Bob that we were leaving for Suntec, and we left.

Took the bus there, got a shock. So many people at the PC fair already! Walked around, bought 2, 2gig memory cards, called him, told him that his harddrive wasn't <$50 but <$100, so he said ok just get any harddrive, and buy 2 more 2gig memory cards because they were only $9.

So went to find another random shop that sold harddrive and the memory card, only to find that this shop sold the memory cards at $8. Wth. Never mind. Bought his harddrive.. his memory cards..

Went to search for his laptop.. but they weren't selling his model. But we found one super good deal, $888, Compaq, free upgrade to 4gig RAM, free mouse, free extended warranty and Norman Antivirus.

When we told Bob and Jenny about it, guess what. YES. They asked us to buy TWO instead!

Imagine us, lugging two bloody heavy laptop's (with freebies) around, walking to the bank to check if they deposited money into my account (no money lah), standing in line to collect the pay for the laptops, standing in ANOTHER line to COLLECT the laptops..

and.. just when we thought we were done queueing... we had to queue at ANOTHER place.. to collect our AntiVirus program CD and our extended warrenty. Basically to register the laptops under our names. Annoying.

Called Jenny, asked if we could take a cab back because it was bloody heavy, but Jenny asked Leo to drive the van over to pick us up. So he did.

Went to tapao Subway, after we paid we realized Nurul and Marilou were still waiting for us (OMG) so we rushed back..

But Leo forgot where he parked the car. So we walked aimlessly around for a really long time. Let's not go into details here.

In the car, I was passing Patrick his foot long Subway, he took it, but decided to eat it later, so he handed it back to me, and I only grabbed it with one hand...

Plop, 6 inch drops on the handbrake, sauce and lettuce and a piece of cucumber everywhere. I go omgwtf what a messed up day.

This is already 9 plus btw. Go back, and well, this is already the un-pissed off version of the story.
Urgh.

Basically, crazy day.

Side note: I got my Krispy Kreme. OMFG THANKS. And I met Chloe and Zoe!
Another side note: I hope Cherlyn can take leave on those days so we can go to Bangkok!
Last side note: Poor Wong has Hay Fever. I never knew anyone who got hay fever. Wow. Somehow, the picture of a donkey sneezing comes to mind. I would say, Get Well Soon Wong! But I don't think that's within your control! So I will say..

COME BACK TO SINGAPORE WONG! The flowers are not blooming over here and there is much less pollen flying around. :)

I hate how some people, after they get a boyfriend or girlfriend, they completely block out all other appointments with friends.

Even when friends are having farewell reunions, and you'll probably not see that friend for at least a year or something.

To make matters worse, this happens every time. Until I get sick of it and just give up asking them out altogether. Good grief.

Oh well, had 3 glasses of apricot brandy (finished the remaining stuff in Don's bottle) and it tasted ten million times nicer than the stuff they serve in clubs/bars. I wonder what brand of apricot brandy they use, because sometimes it has a tinge of medicinal taste. But the one I drank last night was just pure sweet heaven.

And then I drove Jie's car back from Kallang to Yishun because he drank too much.

Have a safe trip back to America Colin! You better reply my facebook wall posts, idiot.

Even though people leave, other people come back too. I woke up from Chloe's phone call just now. SHE IS BACK!

and... wait for it.. wait for it.

SHE BOUGHT ME KRISPY KREME!!!

F*king happy right now. I can't wait to meet her, not only for the Krispy Kreme, but also to see her! We are going to go MADDD this time.

Last time she came, I was like, 17? And I had short hair, and I was geeky.


Now, I am 20 (almost), long hair, and STILL geeky. Awesome.

Ok, but the geeky bit isn't the highlight, the highlight is.. WE CAN DRINK ALCOHOL TOGETHER NOW!

Bringing her to dbl O to get free entry, free flow alcohol, on Wednesday. ;)

So, I was waiting for the bus to come on my way to work today.. and I saw a bird.

The black one with yellow feet. Whatever that species is called <_<

And I started thinking... how the hell does the bird balance on those two stilts? THEY ARE SO THIN!!


Their muscles must be really strong huh? Wow, not only for flight, but to stand up too. Imagine if a bird kicks you, would it be painful or weak? :O

And since birds can never 'sit down'... we humans should stop complaining that we're tired, because we have thicker legs than birds do anyways so technically we're supposed to be more able to cope with the strain. Urgh.

Okay, another boring day at work. Bleh.

ALOT of drama happened in Year 1 Semester 2, you have no idea. One day I will blog it out properly, or I'll just decide to write a book. It is THAT long, THAT complicated.

There are many reasons why I'd prefer NOT to stay in hall this semester. Too many memories, which should be left in the Hall 8, Blk **-*-*** room, and staying in that room will just remind me of everything, and miss everyone much more.

Next semester will be different. I will have to travel 1.5hours to and from school, and Cherlyn may not be there, Vijay won't be there, I'm planning to get my time-table by myself..

It'll be like going to a new school.. sorta. Thanks for the memories guys. I loved the 5am chats, the sound of people playing mahjong downstairs, my very own small staircase, the valentine's day and birthday surprises, chinese new year louhei in my room!

Yeahhhh. And of course, all the people dropping by randomly. Thank you. :) All of you made my semester more interesting! And there are some things I regret, most things, I treasure. If you know what I mean! :P

Let's just say that I know it was purposely put on facebook, because that's where the world can view it, and let's just say that the effect can still be felt halfway around the world. But I swear, I will not let anything affect me.. soon. Why does it still affect me?! I don't know.

Chapter closed.

What is your pet peeve? Or rather, what ARE your pet peeves? Haha.

Here are some of mine. And some of my colleagues. Haha!

I hate it when people sneeze without covering their mouths/noses with something (hands are ok, but you better wash your hands before you touch me)

Nurul HATES people who chew with that .. sound. Just like how Wong hates it too! Wow. It doesn't really annoy me THAT much, but after Wong kept complaining about it, I've started realizing it more often.

I also hate it when people blow smoke in my FACE. Like yesterday when fat Des did it to me. I almost punched him.

Also, you know, when you travel down Orchard or something, and guys like to do that sucking sound with their lips to get other people's attention. HATE IT. Why can't you call people by their names? Calling them by sound is just plain rude.

Sarah hates people who snore. Haha!

I can't stand people who do PDA in trains, buses, everywhere. The most traumatising thing that happened to me was that I was in the train, this teenage couple in front of me were PDA-ing until they got off, just when I thought my hell was over, this like 60 year old couple came and the woman was all over the guy. disgusting. Keep your hands to yourself people. Or do it in PRIVATE. Urgh.

Also can't stand people who drag their feet. Lift your feet people, walk properly people. Attend etiquette courses please.

And I sound like a whiny bitch who likes to complain, but I just wanted to share my pet peeves. If you have some too, feel free to add on by commenting.

Since I've been recently involved in conducting interviews for potential employees, I decided to come up with some things people are doing that should NEVER be done. It lowers your value, makes you look... weak. And thus, you do not get the job. Ta-da.

1) Do not question the interviewers until AFTER they have finished interviewing you.
Usually, your interviewer will leave a segment at the end saying "Do you have any questions?" And that's the time when you're SUPPOSED to ask questions. It is rude if you ask in the middle of the interview.

2) When answering questions, don't look at the ceiling or dart your eyes from left to right.
This is quite hard to notice, but when practicing for your interview, ask your friend to see if he/she notices that you do it.

3) Don't be over-eager.
I've seen so many guys leaning forward and I feel so sad for them I actually tell them to lean back and relax. Haha!

4) Don't fold your arms.
RUDE!

5) Dress appropriately.
Don't know how many times the world stresses this, but you ARE being marked on presentation!

Ok, the funniest thing that happened to me is that...

Me : Okay, do you have any questions?
Him: Yes.. *nervously* I'd... like to know more... about you.
Me: ?!?!?
Johnny and Leo at the far end of the room *look down and try hard not to burst out laughing*
Him: I mean.. more about you in the company...
Me: Okay please hold on.
*leaves the room to laugh*

Okay that's all I can think of off-hand. I shall update when I see more preposterous behavior, and if I can remember it!
