Sometimes I think I take her for granted. I forget that she is only but a rodent and capable of only living a couple of years. Oh well she lived till the grand old age of seven years, but I still remember the day I got her, so small and cute and fat and wheeked like mad and looking super cute with the a tuft of white hair on her crown.
Yah and when everyone's mourning the death of Michael Jackson I shall mourn my guinea pig.
I miss her wheek already D=
And I still feel like eating chwee kueh.
:( Saturday, June 27, 2009 @ 9:14 PM My guinea pig looks unwell. She's not eating, is super thin and doesn't even chew anymore (which is what she always do). She's already 7 years old and well beyond a guinea pig's average expectancy (4-5 years) but still I'm pretty attached to her.
:(

Answer to world peace. Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 3:46 PM I watched this a few months ago on NHK but happen to see it on youtube today again~
Let's do this some time!!
Long overdue but because I'm such a lazy ass I only got it uploaded now...
I'm a sucker for promotions & discounts~
Amanda and Y.W feeling a bit of motion sickness here?
Kind of amazing to get an aerial perspective of SG. It made me feel rather detached, wonder if this is how it feel like for god.
The only photo that has got almost no flare and reflection. -_-
I remember there was an announcement made in the capsule about preparing your camera to snap some view and it turned out to only be the model of some construction project...
Oh yah, a tutorial that I owe Amanda.
Ya I know my desktop looks so nerd. Anyway you login using your gmail and your gmail password.
I think the functions should be the same for windows too? Just drag your photos in and click upload.
I choose the last setting because Picasa gives photos of crappy quality. Click on upload.
After upload, click on "view".
Click on the front and back to copy each of the image's link and follow the instructions below.
I can't really think of a better mass image uploader that is more convenient as picasa, so if you guys know let me know ya. :)
Yes! Tuesday, June 23, 2009 @ 11:58 PM First piece of good news in a long time~
MOE just sent an email offering me a position at Naval Base Secondary woohoo~ I wished to go into Ahmad Ibrahim Secondary but aiya no fate la. If I get pass the medical checkup I'll be starting work on the 20th of July~ so still lots of time for me to slack lol.
Damn cool. Saturday, June 20, 2009 @ 8:37 PM
I am thinking... @ 2:06 AM To go on as many outings possible before I find a job!
So what I mean is yes guys please ask me out. Even if you think you need a buddy to help you carry your groceries when you go to the market. Or help you walk your dog/cat/hamster. Actually I very busy one, but I a bit sian of nuaing at home liao.
Not sure about this but still... Sunday, June 14, 2009 @ 7:44 PM I can't remember the last time I had an aim in Kendo. Think it might be the first time that I'm now aiming for a 5th kyu for my second grading. I almost didn't want to go for the grading this time, but after stopping for so long and after making a decision to continue Kendo I had to go down SKC today to hand in my grading form and part with my $40. I think its the first time I kind of want to attain my goal in Kendo quite badly, and I hope it'll be brought through all the way to grading. Yah I know shit happens and everything, but I suppose if I do my best I wouldn't let myself down.
Sometimes I think among all the things that are happening around in my life, I am the most unsure and have the least confidence when it comes to Kendo. I wonder if it is normal.
Waiting is boring. Wednesday, June 10, 2009 @ 8:48 PM Yes it is.
Anyway I'm seriously thinking about joining the police, the K9 unit in particular, which will mean I'll most probably be working with detecting explosives and drugs. My mum is pretty okay with that, but I think I'm too nua to be a police.
Oh yah! Been intending to do for the past two days...
I dunno how to draw bayonets, and I got lazy so explains the silhouettes... Anyway Hong Yi you're the first to go in on Friday, ahahaha stay safe ah don't worry I don't think you'll be that suay to get a faulty grenade.
Please take off your shirt~uuwoouuwoo! Saturday, June 6, 2009 @ 12:52 AM
Bored. Wednesday, June 3, 2009 @ 10:35 PM 10th batch. This saturday eng bo? We go eat tsukemen okay? Liying got off right? I'll call Zhang Min also ah~
Today my interview only lasted 10 minutes! Interviewed by 4 people, and I only recognised one who is the new principal. The interview was okay la. It felt good to go back to AI. And pretty much everything was still there. I was early so I just walked around the school first. All the artworks hanging there were exactly the ones in my time. 5N1's class also like that, hahahaha. I saw Mrs Davinder Kaur lecturing 3 female students. Ahhh, brings back memories. I saw Madam Azlin but I didn't dare call out to her because I bet a thousand dollars she wouldn't remember who I am.
They asked me the usual questions, introduce myself to them, my experience with teaching, why teaching and not design, how would you control a rowdy class, all these. If I lucky can get in must wait until 20th July to start work lehhhhh. Nearly National Day already can. No chance to go Taiwan liao. ='( Bye bye $300~ AskNLearn called me to ask if I wanted to teach in a primary school, and I rejected it because I wasn't confident of handling kids. I think kids cannot understand me. I cannot understand kids also. So I asked the HR manager to help me find a more suitable school. I think if I can find a better school in a good location faster I'd probably go take up the position of a Multimedia Trainer instead...but that'll make my experience limited to that and I'd much prefer to be teaching art rather than photoshop.
Think I should take up some part time jobs. I mean I'd have to wait until next month for a reply from them man! Help me look out for lobang and I'll treat you all to my delicious curry rice 20 years later.
Fail Tuesday, June 2, 2009 @ 4:28 PM Today my curry rice fail!
The rice very hard sia. My brother very bad say he like eating bullets. -_- I wonder if it's because I never soak the rice in the water enough? Or I didn't add enough water. Nevermind I'll make it better the next time! The curry roux I brought this time tasted better though. Next time I try to make the watery watery one.
What I prepared last week. When my brother doesn't come home to eat I super lazy so sometimes I don't eat or just eat soba.
My chawanmushi. I added too little water to the egg mixture liao.
Very nice and very simple takikomigohan. Just chop all the ingredients and throw it into the rice cooker and tahdah!
Tomorrow got interview at Ahmad Ibrahim Secondary, my mu xiao! I applied the position of an Allied Educator and they told me last week to go down for an interview. I SO SCARED I WILL COCK UP NIA because I've been going to so many interviews liao but I still haven't got any jobs. I wonder if I'm really that not suited to working??
10 dollars for an answer and some bread. Monday, June 1, 2009 @ 2:21 PM East West yesterday. My team got out right after our first two matches. I wasn't in a good form and was oddly calm, not geared up in anyway (although I did feel a rush of queasiness right before my match). Not particularly caring about winning or losing. I was actually trying to decide whether I should join SKC after the competition, and so continuing Kendo. And after all that, I think I should.
I was thinking hor, weekdays I go work, Saturdays go for Japanese class and after that can meet friends, Sunday stay home and rest and draw. So that pretty much leaves me with no time for Kendo. In addition because I am thinking about going into the teaching path, I really wouldn't be able to fork out time to train. So I was pretty much ready to let my shinai and bogu relax one corner. But then, no training like so no life man. Its not like I want to join the Singapore team and fight in WKC or what but I do enjoy Kendo. But if I stop now, its like a "..." to the end of a chapter that leaves a person scratching his head after reading it. And the friends I've made there, I think they're the main reason why I want to keep continuing.
I think I need an organiser right now. And I'm snorting at myself as I write this because I never use an organiser. Ever. But recently so many things are happening around me I think I need to start using one and put down my plans. My buddy to the unpredictable and scary future!
I read about Amanda's post about her father crying in front of her. I think today I saw the weak side of my dad as well (no tears involved though). He just looked so old and hopeless I had a feeling to the extent of being pitiful that I felt so much more powerful and capable than him, which is saying something considering that I've been relying on him for the past 20 years. I felt truly ready to take over his role. But I think I will still stay true to myself and keep telling myself not to be a slave for money. Give myself a chance. Don't know how this will work out, but I'm trying. And I do think I'll be able to make it better if I stay true to myself. To the people suffering from identity crisis, jia you!
