Three years have passed since I updated this blog. Wonder if anyone is still reading it. Oh well... decide to write something since I'm here, and I'm sick, down with sore throat and cough.
Naturally, a lot of things has happened for this past three years. First off, I'm writing this post now on a brand new notebook that I have just bought, well, not really new as I actually bought it a few months ago. But I hardly use it, just surfing some website when need be and run some errands with it. So now I'm writing something here is also to test how good is the keyboard because I hardly get to key anything here!
Since 2013, I have changed job, working in a new environment, no more early off work and non crowded trains anymore! More OT and lots of work that doesn't seem to have an ending. But of course I learned more new things, know more people and the salary is definitely better than my old job.
I have also joined a gym but unfortunately it went bankrupt and all the branches closed down, so now still deciding which other gym I should join, oh well no use fretting about it. I believe after joining a gym, I feel better and am able to run longer distance without feeling tired. And the plus side is when I went for my yearly checkup, they said my cholesterol level is low! Haha..
Not much to say now, am signing off soon. Who knows when I'll be back... ciao~!

Happy CNY 2013!
Happy Lunar New Year to everyone out there! =)
Yup, it's me... I'm back!
Haha just here to post what has happened to me for this whole new year.
Celebrated New Year with Z and his mum. Saw the fireworks right at his window! Who knew that there would be fireworks at a neighbourhood? We had a delicious meal courtesy of Z's mum :)
So we just spent the entire day having a Resident Evil Movie Marathon! Haha that's right, from the first movie right up to the lastest one with Bai Bing Bing in it! Er... can't remember that is the number what movie for Resident Evil, but we had fun watching them. At least there is action and horror and some funny zombie scenes here and there :)
It was fun... but too bad he had to go back a few days later :(
Oh well, he will be graduating soon anyway :)
January was quite an unproductive month, the only thing worth mentioning is that I spent an entire Saturday at Vivo City to get all my CNY new clothes with QW! YES, you saw it right! Just one day and I got myself, three T-shirts, one shorts and one long pants! ;) Very happy at our fast and efficient way of buying what we want.. but the wallet and my bank account wasn't really happy though -.-
Nonetheless, after the very tired and long shopping spree, we went and have a good dinner, Yoshinoya -.- After that we went for another round of shopping, not for us but for our friend, WM, who came after his work.. so of course must not let him have a wasted trip ;) After some persuasion and walking around, WM finally managed to buy A LOT of clothes.. lol
Okay so we were getting hungry, so we went back to our place's Mac and have supper. Everything was good, until they have to go and talk about politics -.- Things always almost never went well when you talk about politics... sigh
And then there is my workplace, so long already still no bonus or increase in my salary? sigh...
So CNY came, I was so HAPPY about it! On Saturday, CNY eve, I woke up with a smile on my face, watched cartoon, have my late brunch while I wait for my mum and sis to come home from work, and then we can have steamboat together :) I dunno about the rest of you, but my family only have steamboat during CNY eve, that is why it is so special to me. They say CNY cannot do housework mah, so I just do my office work. YES, I still have to work on a Saturday -.- albeit from home. So evening came and my mum and sis came back (yay!). Then we prepared all the ingredients for steamboat, although the food is not a lot, still its the mood and the person we eat with that is the most important, for that day. After the steamboat, I had to mop and sweep the floor -.-
Well at least my sis bothered to help wash the dishes (which she only does it like our steamboat, once every year -.-), but seriously, I think she only took ten mins or less washing the dishes, I don't even know if they were clean or not -..-
Anyway, after all the cleaning and washing, we just sat around in front of the TV and watch our shows. We stayed up till like 3am.
For the first day of CNY, the relatives from my mum's side were coming over to visit us, so I did not wear any new clothes -.- just some simple clothes that cover what should be covered =p
One of my uncle came earlier than expected, they came while I was still showering... lol
Before that, we wanted to order Pizza so that when our relatives are here, we can eat something. But who knew my computer had to throw tantrum, on the first day! WTF!!! So yeah no choice but to use my tablet to look at menu while we ordered it online. Surprisingly, the order came on time and was not wrong... haha But my 2nd uncle came so late that everybody was staving and the food had became cold -.- In the end when they came (thank god!), we were all ready to eat. But us being the host, have to make sure that my guests have their fill before we ate, and boy were they so hungry that the pizazz wasn't enough at all! So my sis, mum and I had to starve until they went off -.-
Haha but I am very happy that I get to meet my aunts, uncles and cousins =)
The only regret I had was that I was too shy and did not go and talk to my cousins more... oh well, there is always next year ;)
Then the second day of CNY, we had to go to my youngest aunt of my father's side, who moved so many times and this year, they moved to a condo -.- Nice condo but when it rained, the front of the life landing actually got ponding -.- We have to jumped over the 'pond', thank god for my standing board jump skill, can't say the same for my mum and sis :p Oh the best part of meeting my relatives from my father's side is that my aunts are very good cook! They always prepare the most delicious food for all of us. Like fried 年糕, steamboat, my cousins first time making pineapple tart (which was very good!), 车仔面 (mixed with my aunt's special recipe chilli and fried onion... OMG!) and of course the food that I suddenly wanna eat during CNY, 盆菜! Haha I ate so many rounds that I think my tummy is starting to show a bit of growing outwards.... nah :P
Yeah I know I should take a few pics of the delicious food instead of just describing them in words, but I was too busy eating and too lazy to take out my smartphone.. so yeah... but don't worry, my cousin took some good pics :p
Again, so happy to meet my relatives, had so much fun and laughter and not forgetting ang paos too, my newly wed cousin giving out ang pao for the first time.... hehe many more years to come :p
I think the only thing that is constant for these past three days is... Rain, Rain and more rain -_-
It just rain everyday, every time around noon and always non stop after that. But it still did not dampen our mood of celebrating CNY... I miss my grandparents, and of course my dad too...
Yup, it's me... I'm back!

Happy National Day 2012~!
Happy National Day! :-)
Haha... More than half a year has passed. Time to update what I have done for this past half year.
First of all, I finally finished my degree course! Yay! So okay, now it's time to look for a proper job as the current one I'm in is not what I have in mind, as a long term job. I think it is time for me to go out and explore! The job I'm now doing is my first real job after NS, and hey, I have stayed there for two years plus! That's very long okay! Consider that is my first job and I didn't look for another job after that. Why? Well, part of the reason was that I was studying part time so I needed a job where I do not have too much work load and not doing OT everyday. Another reason was I'm just too lazy and scared to find a new job, meet new boss and make new friends/colleagues all over again. Sigh, but I think now is time for me to move on. Let's hope I get the result I want and faster move on.
Do miss my classmates, the time I spent with them going for supper almost every night where there was class. And to go out and celebrate on Saturday when we have finished our paper on that day. Sigh, really miss them and the times we spent together :-) Except for you-know-who which I shall not mention here :-p
I have also passed my freaking IPPT! Yay! But then the NS just have to spoil my fun by sending me a SMS right in the afternoon of my birthday -.-
Oh well, I have to train now, do lot's of jogging and pull-up, hopefully pass my IPPT in August, or during my reservist. GET IT OVER AND DONE WITH ASAP! Lol...
Did not achieve much very important goals during these few months. Well, I didn't set any goal in the first place. Lol.
Had a change of my job scope recently and I must say... I don't like it at all! Because I have to kind of work in the weekend! Sian... Plus the workload is just..pff...
Oh and did I mention that I had a stupid woman who came to work in my company and quitted just after a day!?!? Stupid B*t*h! If wanna quit, then might as well don't start! Waste my whole day coaching and guiding her. I had to waste my time helping her edit all her errors, and make sure she sent the report on time. I spent the whole afternoon teaching her the stuff she needed to learn, waste my breath and saliva! Until my mouth was like so dry for talking for a few hours! I even asked if she was alright and can she cope or not. She said 'yes, I can' in a very normal no feeling tone. I mean come on! All my colleagues and I can see from her face that she was very stress and confused but she just would not admit it. I mean she can let us know, and then we can lighten her work load first and after she is more use to it then we add on. If we don't lighten then she can quit lah! So irressponsible woman! Felt like showing the whole world her picture and FB profile but... nah. I don't wanna stoop until so low like her -.-
Well, now that I have graduated, technically, I feel like doing something in the near future.
1) Do more exercise, perhaps take up a sport. Anyone have any suggestion?
2) Maybe take up gym? But I know I'm quite lazy to do that -.-
3) Read more story books with my Kindle Fire.
4) Eat more! Eat more! -.-
Okay, we shall see if I did any of the things I listed above the next time I write in. Ciao~

Year 2012
Happy New Year everyone!
Today is the second day of 2012. Stayed at home on both Saturday and Monday. But I did go out on Sunday.
Went to Vivo city in the afternoon with Wen. Bought a jean for myself. Was a bit ex but the design and colour quite nice. After a few hours of shopping, we still could not find any top that we like, so we decide to go queensway to shop. But in the end didn't find any top over there too.
So at night we went to Ron's house for BBQ. Ron and his family just moved to their new home, a bungalow. Very big and the design very nice.. I'm sure his dad spent a lot on the renovation and security system of that house :)
We had a lot of fun eating and chatting.. I missed the times we had when we were in secondary school. Too bad now we have all grown up and doing our own things.
So sad that tomorrow have to go back to work... Sian -.-
Cheers,
Wils

Year 2011
Today is the last day of 2011. It is my rabbit year. There has been up and down but generally, it's been a good year for me ;-)
I have met a very good 'friend', Z. I hope there are many good years to come for us and that 2012 will be awesome for us. Study hard Z!
This year is mostly just working and studying for me. Studying for that degree hasn't been easy, and having to work full time makes it worse. Results wasn't what I expected but oh we'll, can't complain what I sow. Let's hope 2012 my results will improve. Time to sow more hard work! :-)
Other than that, never really been overseas. Maybe only been to KL. It was my first time in KL and the trips were enjoyable and the fact that I went with Z made it memorable. :-)
I watched more movies this year than any other years. Some pretty good ones like Harry Potter's last movie, Captain America, oh and the last movie I watched this year was New Year's Eve. It was a very funny and heart warming movie. At first, I was quite skeptical when Z suggested we watch this movie cos there were many celebrities in it and I thought it was going to be very messy and cliche. But I was wrong and it was actually very nice.. The speech Hillary Swank gave was very touching, Sophia and Russell Peter were really very funny. Especially Sophia! It was like she was playing her role in modern family but on a big screen! So funny! I really recommend you guys to watch it but it's the last day so I doubt there's time. But hey, let's just wait for the DVD to come out :-)
Oh and one major event that happened in my family but again I can't reveal it here. Let's just say it was bad :-(
I wanna take this chance to wish everyone a happy new year and have a great 2012 ahead :-)
ps: this mobile blogger is awesome! And with this, I can blog as and when I feel like blogging with my phone :)
Plus I can edit any content I want easily!
Cheers

3rd year
2 days before the start of my last year in Uni. I'm in my 3rd and last year of my Uni course. Have to study hard for this year cos its either make or break my future(jobs). In the end, I still did not quit my job, and my working time is not 7.30am to 4.30pm. Yeah I know! So early, right?! But, oh well, that is what my boss wants, so I dont really have a choice. I have to go to work so early, but, at least I get to go off early too. Just hope that with the new timing, I do not have to be so rush, and I hope I will not fall asleep in class -_-
I didnt really score very well for last year, so hopefully this year will be better... Well, fingers crossed =X
It's been one month plus since Z went away. Things have changed and I'm starting to get the hang of it, that is without Z around. Feels like Z is very stress wherever Z is. Stress with school work and $. I just wish I can help him, but I dont know how. Fortunately, Z is starting to settle down in the new place and will be coming back in a few months time. Can't wait to see Z and spend some time with Z. Ask Z to spill the bean about the life there and how it is.
Seriously, I dont even know if I should just quit my job and focus on my studies.. But hey! lets face it, I dont even think it would make much difference even if I quitted my job and just study. If my result is the same, wouldnt it have been wasted? I do need the money to pay for my expenses, my family and my insurances.
Oh well, life of a full time working, part time studying student :)

2011: NDP and many more...
Right, it has been a year since I last view or post in my blog. I mean come on, who blogs nowadays? Haha but yeah I'm back because I would still like to write the things I want whether anyone looks at it or not. As usual, a lot of things have happened recently and I just want to summarize what I have been through.
Jan 2011
At the start of the year, I was very happy because something good happened to me. I cant give the full details but yeah I have been happy, for awhile. However, work and school has kept me quite busy.
Feb 2011
Celebrated CNY and this time all was good because I didnt get interrogated by my aunts as usual and they all seem to be in a good mood this year. Though my sis has been pressurize many times by them. Still, dont think I celebrated with my secondary school friends as much as I want to and I think it is a pity because we used to go house visits every year. Now, everyone is just busy, but I have no idea with what.
March onwards...
I have decided not to write monthly as I can not remember as much as I want to, I guess my memory is failing me, lol...
Let's see... Well I remember I went to KL, twice. Was very fun, going with Z. I got to stay in a very nice hotel the first time but was quite expensive, visited some places and ate great food. Like A&W, miss their curly fries, root beer float and chilli hotdogs, yummy! Oh and KFC with their special chicken rice, and meatball soup, it was awesome. We also had breakfast at Delifrance and the coffee and sausage with egg was delicious! Oh not forgetting the steaks we had at Tony Ramos with different sauces and the side dishes were very good too. And the Krispy Kreme's donuts were pretty good too. Did some shopping at the second time, stayed in a not so good hotel that time because the toilet was leaking. And the lift was like spoilt the entire time. We didnt really use the mini kitchen which we want to which was a pity. I also went to Sunway Lagoon the second time we went to KL but unfortunately it rained and was freezing cold. But we did had fun and it was very good. Though we almost couldnt play because apparently they think that the shorts we wore were too short! -_-
But luckily, we went to see the supervisor and he helped us to talk to the people there and got us through. Thank you! whoever you are :)
I did a lot of things with Z, going to lots of movies, clubs, especially to the Night Safari and USS. It was awesome! Very fun! Especially USS, the battlestar galattica for ceylon and human were awesome! I prefer ceylon ride more because your legs are like just hanging in the air. Very scary but fun!
And now Z is in australia and I'm gonna miss him :(
So now I'm focusing on my studies and the problems I have, back in sg.. but there is a story for another time. :)

But luckily, we went to see the supervisor and he helped us to talk to the people there and got us through. Thank you! whoever you are :)
I did a lot of things with Z, going to lots of movies, clubs, especially to the Night Safari and USS. It was awesome! Very fun! Especially USS, the battlestar galattica for ceylon and human were awesome! I prefer ceylon ride more because your legs are like just hanging in the air. Very scary but fun!
And now Z is in australia and I'm gonna miss him :(
So now I'm focusing on my studies and the problems I have, back in sg.. but there is a story for another time. :)

Fever.. Fever.. Fever! (and National Day!)
Yup, had a high fever last week... about 39.0 degree celsius! But before I write about that, last talk about what I did the previous weeks...
I have been watching quite a few movies lately. First, it was Sorcerer's Apprentice . It was quite a good show, but the ending was typical. And the fighting reminds me of Dragon Ball, hmm... anyone feels the same? I watched Inception too. Very interesting, but very complicated. I think most of the brain cells were dead after watching the movie, and the ending made all the cells come alive just to get shock down again... Very, very complicated movie... I guess it wasn't really suitable for my puny brain. Hey, I have a small head... what can I do? XD
Moving on, I went to JB with my friends, Vic, KT and Daph. So we agreed to meet very early on that day, and we only confirmed the JB trip one day before, thanks to KT ;P
So all of us promised to meet at 10am on that day, but, because of the 'rain' (LOL... thank god for the rain XD), we pushed our meeting time to 11am instead. So all of us were rushing, cos we were afraid that the so-and-so will be too on time and unleash her fury upon us later if she waited for too long and nothing there could entertain her at that time.
Fortunately, I was the first one there. And I, being the all-so-mild-mannered guy that I am ;-p I helped them to queue up before they came. So after a while, we all boarded the bus, and have seats, cos we were the first. Yay!
Passing the custom was a pain in the a** cos everyone is rushing - like rushing to get reborn to a good family -________-
being the Singaporean that I am, I cant be losing to them right... LOL
In which case, we did lost to them and had to stand all the way to JB customs. The traffic was a mess there and we stand for quite some time. Stupid road! So again, we went for the custom, but this time, the Malaysian one. So after everything was done, we went to City Square! The only shopping center that is near the custom and near Singapore but still uses Ringgit to buy stuff!
We walked around the shopping mall for a bit, not knowing where to go, and what to do. But eventually, we thought of watching a movie there, since we have time, and there wasn't much activities we could do there.
So in the end, we watched SALT. Yet another good but typical show... Oh, but took the Friends Package that they offered there and it was really cheap! One ticket, one popcorn and one drink per pax. So it was quite worth it, not to mention that it is really very cheap to watch a movie in Malaysia! Throughout the whole movie, I felt like I was going to freeze to death. Cos the temperature was so low, and the cinema had a 'zoo' smell. The smell where u find in the Zoo. Yucks!
Remember the most important part - I ate a whole box of popcorn and drank a whole cup of 7-UP. It comes important a short while later...
For now, let's talk about after the show. After the show, of course we were quite helpless, because we do not know where to go and what to do again... lolx But, our tummy were growling a bit, so we walked around the mall, while thinking about what to eat for dinner. We had wanted to eat outside the mall, where there was a night market. But it was drizzling and we were afraid that it might get huge, so we decided to stay in the mall for our dinner. In the end, we chose a Japanese restaurant at the basement of the mall. I have forgotten the name of it... lolx
The food was good, I had the meal where there are booth rice and ramen.
After that sumptuous dinner, KT decided to buy some beard papa home! LOLx... she kept pronouncing it wrongly... haha =X But we waited for quite a long time. Just to find out its sold out! But, they are making new ones and she could make an order first, and then go somewhere else to shop around before coming back to collect the thingy. The cashier was actually quite friendly and nice... haha I think its the only store in Malaysia... lolx
By the time we back to Malaysia customs to go back to Singapore customs to go back to Singapore, it was already night time. And the custom was jam packed with people! Boy did i regret not going back earlier, so as to beat the crowd... argh! I had to wait for quite a long while, and there wasn't any seats, the road was so packed with cars that it wasn't moving at all. I felt miserable while standing and waiting, who would have thought that I was actually starting to get sick at that time.
Yes... when i went home, and I had a short nap, while letting my sister uses my computer, I felt very cold, chilly and shivering. I was actually having a fever! A very HIGH FEVER!!! So I reported sick on Monday, and went to see my family doctor. And as usual, the clinic was packed with sick people. I had to register, but the guy in front of me was so slow that I was getting impatient. He wrote his name in such neat and slow handwriting, that I felt like grabbing the book, and asked him to let me write first. He was damn slow...
I dozed off and on for about one hour plus, while waiting for my turn. I knew that if that guy in front of me had not leave, that means my turn is not up yet. Oh his wife was SO TALKATIVE!!! In between my sleeping and waking up, I can hear her talking, NON-STOP! I dont know where did she get all the saliva and energy to talk so much!?!? And to think that she was seeing the doctor with her husband?!?! So finally their turn came, I woke up, and eagerly sat in front of the door, awaiting for my turn. I waited and waited for almost 15mins, and those two still did not come out! I was so pissed?!?! I was thinking, my fever from 39 can go up to 40 while waiting for them. And the nurse might as well call a ambulance and drive me to the hospital! They were DAMN SLOW!!! So finally the wife came out, with a small bottle, and went to the toilet. So the nurse asked me to go in, I was thinking, hmm... I didnt see her husband come out, so how can I go in. But i cant wait any longer, so i just knocked the door, and opened it. And there it was, the stupid husband seating beside the doctor, while the doctor signaled me to wait outside -_____-
STUPID NURSE AND STUPID COUPLE?!?!? My degree is really going up!
And when I finally got the chance to see the doctor, do you know what he said to me?!?!? He said why did i waited so long to come see him, cos my fever's quite high and its dangerous for me! ... I was speechless!!! Do you think I wanna wait so long to come see you! Its just that there are 10 more people in front of me, including the couple who you had to take a sample of their pee! But me, being the mild mannered boy that I am, I just smiled and said the queue was long >_< I did not have the strength and energy to argue with him. But he did give me 2 days of MC, which in turn became 4 days! LOLx... XD
I'm all better now, and today is National Day! Yay!

Hell load of BS
I dont know why but tonight was the night that i suddenly want to write something...
Its been a long time since i wrote something, blogging wasn't as popular as it use to be, and tweeting is starting to slide too...
I'm still working in that small little firm. Its cool, my colleagues are nice, and the work and environment isn't that bad either. I'll probably stick around until... may be when I graduate from my course. I'm going to start studying soon, I'm getting a degree in management. Its a very general course, hence the 'Jack of All Trades, Master of None' keeps popping up in my head. I know its too general, but I really don't know what I am going to do when I graduate. I have no goals, no dreams, no jobs that I fancy... I don't really know what I like, everyone always ask what do you like to do, but I have NO IDEA what i want to do. Is it really that bad? Not to have dreams? No Goals? No Future? I just live my life one day at a time...
For these past couple of months, I have been trying to find out what I want to do, and who I am. Some of you will know what I mean. Trying to figure out what I want to do, for a job, and in my life. What I truly am, in my life. I have no idea too. I have no one to guide me, no one to teach me, and no one to talk to. Of course, I'm not that pessimistic. At least not yet anyway.
So I said that I have been working, waiting for my course to start. Am a little nervous, don't really know if I can cope with it. And don't really know if I can make any friends there.
Oh did I mention that I just celebrated my birthday not long ago? No I really did celebrate my birthday. My secondary school friends, who I have known for almost ten years, some of them couldn't make it. And for those who came, no one bother to bring a camera along, or sing a birthday song for me. Its not that I don't appreciate them, its just that I'm a little sad that not all my friends can make it, and I have to bring my own camera to take pictures. And even the pictures are very few. Did anyone notice that NO ONE commented on the pictures I took for my birthday? Only one of my colleagues did, the rest just couldn't bother or think that it's not worth commenting. Even my one of my friends who is currently studying overseas, care more about his blunder and rejections, than saying happy birthday to me. He wants me to listen to his incident and didn't even bother to ask if I'm interested or not. Or at least he could wish me first, before blabbering away on the window screen. I'm mostly ALWAYS present in all of their birthday celebrations, and make an effort to buy them presents, but me?
But i do appreciate the present that they bought me, and will still bring my camera to their birthday celebrations. I will still make an effort to celebrate all of their birthdays, and make them happy, as long as I'm still alive, and they are still my friends.
I know some of you who read this will ask me to grow up, get a life, stop whining, but hey, this is my blog, I get to write what I want to say and if you are not happy, create your own blog and flame me, I don't care ;p

Interesting Incidents
Yesterday, saw something interesting happened and I just had to blog it...
Was catching the train to work yesterday morning to go to work. As usual, it was packed with a lot of sardines(people). Then came a guy, whose obviously wearing an office wear and going to work too. He was listening to music. But it was not the usual iPhone, iPod, or any other form of MP3 or smartphones that you see nowadays where ever you are. On his hand, he was holding this:
He was actually holding a Discman! LOL
It looks like the picture above, but a bit bigger! Wow, can you believe it? There is actually someone out there who is still using this form of music player?! When I saw him using it, I was really shock. And to add to the shocking factor, he was actually an Ang Moh (Caucasian)!!! Haha, quite big size and spot a shaved head. Really man! It sure brings a nostalgic feeling when I think of him and his discman. I used to have one too, during my lower secondary school days. I still have it stashed inside my drawers... haha, think it is still working!
Another interesting thing is I found an article from Gawker that I really like it! The link is here
It's about how straight guys can be friends with gay guys and do not have to be afraid that all the gay guys wants to eat you up, or only thinking about having sex with straight guys like you. Haha i found it really interesting and the things they wrote are quite true...
You should go and read it!!!
Ok, I'm signing out and going to work soon... Eating lunch with my boss today =X
Bye!

Goodbye... Dollhouse
Yes, just when I'm starting to catch season 2, Dollhouse was canceled. I did not catch season 1 because at that time, I did not know what kind of show was that, and I was skeptical. All I know was that the lead actress (Eliza Dushku) was from Dark Angel, and I never watch that show too. But, putting my skepticism aside, I decided to give season 2's episode 1 a try, and boy was i hook! I really like the story about actives, how these people was 'imprinted' with different personalities and how the big corporation has a sinister evil plan, right down to the actors and actress playing them.
The last episode was really a continuation of the last episode of season 1. How the little girl was actually an active, how she manages to bluff the rest of the survivals, and killed them, and how the dad was just a decoy. But luckily, one of the last remaining survival was smart enough to notice that the girl had told them her dad's name wrongly, as her dad's name was already carved onto him, before he became an active. Pardon me if I'm always writing this girl, that guy, because I'm really bad at remembering names.
Anyway, I was really shock that Joss Whedon had killed off Ballard so... how should I say, easily? Its just a headshot by the enemy when he was trying to calm a girl down... Poor Ballard, I was hoping he and Echo can be together. Oh a small trivia, there's a song called 'Echo' by a girl group called, 'Girl Cant Catch', cheesy but kind of catchy too... lol.
So in the end, Ballard just died on the streets, leaving Echo to vent her anger at Sierra. But I must admit, I really like the actors and actress playing Sierra and Victor. I especially like when Victor was imprinted with Topher's memory, because the way he behave and the way he talks, really 100% looks like the real Topher! Not to mention that his voice really sounds like him. And then there's the real Topher, who is really a genius, who was actually the mastermind and brain behind all these magnificent gadgets and technology advancement. It will be very scary if there is really someone like Topher out in our world. Oh wait, I think we do have...
The way Topher speaks is really cute. And how he is always scared and admired Adelle.
Adelle, who appears to be an ice queen, very cold and impartial, was actually the mother hen in the end, who took care of Topher when he's gone a bit psycho, and help the rest of the actives to escape. And the shocking truth that Boyd was actually one of the founders of Rossum Corp. Who would have known... And the last part where we saw him holding a grenade and smile faintly at Echo was really sad! Almost make me forget all the bad things that he have done. Was kinda creepy when he told Echo that he likes her, and for Echo to tell him that he loves him, WEIRD. I wonder what happen to the Asian assistant of Topher's...
Oh, and there was the first active, Alpha, who became really funny and cute in the last episode. The actor playing Alpha is really a good actor, too bad no one really notice him. I remember seeing him in another tv show, 'V', and he was killed off after only 3 or 4 episodes... sad.
Well, I guess all I can do is to watch re-runs, or wait for another show that can be just as good as it, stay tuned...

Confessions of a Shopaholic Part 2
Remember part 1? That was only Saturday. I still have not write about Sunday, lol... so here i go!
Before Sunday, I messaged a lot of my friends and asked if they were willing to accompany me for shopping. As always, many of them will reject me without giving a second thought. Finally, one of my poly friend, BW, was very okay with shopping and was willing to shop with me! Yeah! Off i go, to continue my shopping spree!
So, around noon, i met BW at the bus interchange near my house and we boarded a bus, which will take us to Orchard. Taking a bus meant that we will have seats to sit, and can chat along the ride. Usually it will be BW talking, and I'll be listening... LOL
So finally we reached our first stop, Tangs. From there, I bought my first item for the day, a Fossil watch. It cost me about 200 bucks! OMG!?!?!?! @$*&@^($
Haha, never in my life have I bought myself such an expensive watch. But I sick and tired of cheap watch that breaks down after last then a month. So, I decided to buy myself a good and stylish watch. I wanted an Adidas watch, but my wrist skin is sensitive to rubbery plastic material. So I decided to buy a black metal material Fossil watch, so that I can wear for both work and casual occasions. You see, its my only first stop and I have already blown away 200 bucks! So what's more to come?
Next stop, we went to ION Orchard, where I bought some food and drinks because I was hungry, or may be because of the knowledge that I've just burnt a gigantic hole in my wallet. If I remember correctly, I did not buy anything from ION, just the food and drink. So off we go to the third stop, Takashimaya Shopping Centre. Nope, never buy anything there too... Alright let's just fast forward to where I bought something. Oh ya, I bought a brown leather shoe from Pedro. Its also for use in both formal and casual occasions. I think its just me, but I really like something that I can wear for both occasions, so that I do not have to buy too many things. I forgot where I bought that shoes from, think its from ION Orchard, I think. Anyway, after buying those two items, or should I say accessories, I did not buy anything else, just have my dinner and dejectedly went home. Exhausted and Guilt-Stricken.
You would have thought that after buying so many clothes, shirts, pants, watch and shoes, I should be stopping already right? Guess what? I went to Part 3!!! L~O~L
Yes! I really went for another shopping with my good friend, QW, as he still needs to buy his clothes, so I tag along, promising myself that I will only accompany him, and do 'Window Shopping'. But after going to 313@somerset, I'm thinking of getting myself a high top sneakers. I just saw one really chic looking pair at 'Pull and Bear', but it cost $129! So I forced myself not to spend anymore. But I really like it a lot.... Haha... Or I should probably listen to what my friend QW said, "There's always next (CNY) year." LOL
So do you guys think I should buy? Does it match with skinny jeans? It's black in colour, so it does not appear to be too sporty. Can I match it with pants? Do you think Pull and bear shoes are good? Can I wear it with a berms? I have so many questions, yet no one to answer... 'sigh'
Anyway, there's all I have to write....

Finally, one of my poly friend, BW, was very okay with shopping and was willing to shop with me! Yeah! Off i go, to continue my shopping spree!
So, around noon, i met BW at the bus interchange near my house and we boarded a bus, which will take us to Orchard. Taking a bus meant that we will have seats to sit, and can chat along the ride. Usually it will be BW talking, and I'll be listening... LOL
So finally we reached our first stop, Tangs. From there, I bought my first item for the day, a Fossil watch. It cost me about 200 bucks! OMG!?!?!?! @$*&@^($
Haha, never in my life have I bought myself such an expensive watch. But I sick and tired of cheap watch that breaks down after last then a month. So, I decided to buy myself a good and stylish watch. I wanted an Adidas watch, but my wrist skin is sensitive to rubbery plastic material. So I decided to buy a black metal material Fossil watch, so that I can wear for both work and casual occasions. You see, its my only first stop and I have already blown away 200 bucks! So what's more to come?
Next stop, we went to ION Orchard, where I bought some food and drinks because I was hungry, or may be because of the knowledge that I've just burnt a gigantic hole in my wallet. If I remember correctly, I did not buy anything from ION, just the food and drink. So off we go to the third stop, Takashimaya Shopping Centre. Nope, never buy anything there too... Alright let's just fast forward to where I bought something. Oh ya, I bought a brown leather shoe from Pedro. Its also for use in both formal and casual occasions. I think its just me, but I really like something that I can wear for both occasions, so that I do not have to buy too many things. I forgot where I bought that shoes from, think its from ION Orchard, I think. Anyway, after buying those two items, or should I say accessories, I did not buy anything else, just have my dinner and dejectedly went home. Exhausted and Guilt-Stricken.
You would have thought that after buying so many clothes, shirts, pants, watch and shoes, I should be stopping already right? Guess what? I went to Part 3!!! L~O~L
Yes! I really went for another shopping with my good friend, QW, as he still needs to buy his clothes, so I tag along, promising myself that I will only accompany him, and do 'Window Shopping'. But after going to 313@somerset, I'm thinking of getting myself a high top sneakers. I just saw one really chic looking pair at 'Pull and Bear', but it cost $129! So I forced myself not to spend anymore. But I really like it a lot.... Haha... Or I should probably listen to what my friend QW said, "There's always next (CNY) year." LOL
So do you guys think I should buy? Does it match with skinny jeans? It's black in colour, so it does not appear to be too sporty. Can I match it with pants? Do you think Pull and bear shoes are good? Can I wear it with a berms? I have so many questions, yet no one to answer... 'sigh'
Anyway, there's all I have to write....

My first real ex-job...
I had a fun time meeting up with my ex-colleagues from the place I used work in, Kumon. Although I tried to ask a lot of people to go, in the end, only three of us were there... lol
My colleagues look all the same, even after 2 full years of not seeing them, or at least one of them I haven seen her for a long time, the longest auntie I have known, who still works in Kumon.
We went to Sembawang Shopping Centre, the place where we first met. That was the place where the Kumon I work in first started, and its the place where we had all our fun and laughter. But a few years back, they wanted to renovate the place, so we had to move to another location, which was nearer to the MRT station, but still we missed the old place.
After renovating for a few years, the shopping centre has finally reopened. So we went there to have a look, to see what has changed, and what remains the same. We also had our lunch there. During lunch, we talked about everything. Keep up to date about what each of us are doing now, how is my ex-boss and her company doing, how the kids in Kumon are doing, and how my other ex-colleagues are doing.
From my colleague, found out that my ex-boss is doing great! Had a LOT more students, which explains the fat bonus that my ex-colleague got.... LOL
But too much students, and too little teachers, poor ex-colleague don't even have the time to time for dinner. Can you imagine having bread for breakfast, and dinner? Omg, if I were her, I'll sure go out and eat, but then again, she's not me, and she cant possibly go and eat, while leaving the kids inside the centre on their own... Oh well...
I really wanted to go back and work there, but I know I cant... Its too far and the poor isn't enough to cover my expenses. So I guess I'll have to pass.... Who knows, I may go back and work some day. But till then, I just stick to this job first...

Confessions of a Shopaholic
After watching confessions of a shopaholic a few months back, I must say I do empathize with the actress's impulsive behavior to shop. I was very unfortunate to have this kinda experience a few days ago as I was shopping new clothes for Chinese New Year. In case you are not a Chinese, usually around Chinese New Year, we will buy new clothes to wear on that day, thus this traditions carried on till now.
Last Saturday, I went to Singapore Institute of Management(SIM) to register myself to two of the courses there. Hopefully, I will get selected for both of them, so that I can choose from the both of them later. But if I'm accepted to both, I think I will have a dilemma. *sigh*
Anyway, after I registered, I went to Bugis with my friend, to shop. First stop, we went to Illuma, which is just opposite Bugis Junction, as my friend wants to go there and buy herself a cell phone casing for her HTC Hero. I don't understand why she bothers to buy a casing only after using it for a few months, in which the shell of her cell phone is already full of scratches, and she dropped her phone a couple of times! But being a good friend, I did not voice out what I was thinking at that time, oh well, better late then never, or so they say...
Oh and we came across a sales event in the middle of the mall, whereby there were some graphic tees that were sold for ten bucks each! I saw that price, could not resist, and went and bought two tees! That, was the first of my many purchases, or rather, the start of my horrific but satisfying shopping spree.
Next, we went to Bugis Market, which was kinda like a night market, except that its operating in the day. I'm telling you, the place was jam packed with a lot of people, its like a can full of chopsticks, without any room to walk. I just don't understand how people(girls) can shop in this kinda situation, to which my friend shot me a 'duh' look, and told me shopping is like this... LOL
We saw many nice tees and pants but I was hesitating in buying them because I knew that the quality of the material of the pants and tees here are not that good, I knew because I've bought them before, and they tore easily. Nevertheless, my friend still managed to get the extremely short shorts that she was looking for, and myself, another tee which has really nice material and color... lol, who am I to kid, and here I go again, another purchase.
After that, we walk all the way from Bugis, to Orchard Road, because I have some things that I want to have a look there. Went to Somerset@313, got myself another short pants and a hooded shirt. I dunno why, but I really really like hooded clothes! Haha, I dun understand why, but I like the way those hoods dangling behind my neck, makes me look really cool and street smart. Too bad I cant pull the hood over my head in S'pore, because, seriously, I dun think anyone will do that in S'pore anyway. But still, I like hooded clothes and I'm sure I'll continue to buy more of them, haha, because someday, I know that I will get to use it! Last stop was at Uniqlo, where i bought myself three pants and some under clothes. I'm so stupid to go and alter my pants without first trying it on, ask them to measure, then alter according to the measurement. Nooo, I have to be all smart alex, ask them to alter it for me, by just giving them the length that I want. In the end, it was shorter than what I would like, but still, its wearable. Just that it might make me look like a hobbit, have you seen the pants of the hobbits in Lord of The Ring? You get what I mean...
So after all these shopping/ guilty pleasures/ burning a gigantic hole in my wallet/ whateva you wanna call it, my friend and I went to this mini fast food restaurant to have our dinner cum supper. It was very late, we were very hungry, and the restaurant was almost closing. There is one thing that I would like to complain, and that is the service standard of Frolick in Cathy Cineleisure. The attitude of the counter crew lady was really bad, she was very very rude to my friend and I. As I was given a card from Topman to have a free yogurt ice cream from them, I decide to get it there. My friend did not have the card, but still she purchased one. After she purchase hers, I asked the lady if I can have my free ice cream, the counter crew said, "can you wait?" in a very rude tone, and asked my friend, "are you paying for this?", pointing to the cup of ice cream which my friend had ordered. What kinda attitude was that, right? I mean if you want me to wait, I can wait, but I don't think you have to give me this kinda attitude right? And my friend ordered hers without showing the card, so obviously she's paying right? I'm so offended by her attitude, I'm not gonna buy ice cream from Frolick ever again, or at least not in Cathy Cineleisure, or if the B*IT*H is there.
And another very annoying person, is my sister. But I think I've already given up on her attitude and habit, so I'm not gonna write the incident here. Who knows, maybe next time...
All these was only on Saturday, wait till you hear what I bought on Sunday...
Till then... see ya!

Bon Voyage
Yesterday, my friends and I sent our good friend off from the airport. He is going away to the US to study. Actually he's already studying there, its just that he came back awhile for the holidays. So now he's going back there as his school is starting. The saddest part is that he will not come back for another two years or so! Omg... that's very long do you know that!?!?! Plus the fact that I getting one less Ang Bao this year, and the following year! Oh man...lol
But I'm truly gonna miss him. Goodbye, Jason! hehe...
So what's happening this week? Hmm... oh yea, my boss asked me to help her find so movers to move the glass table from the office, to her house. Drags! I'm really starting to feel that I'm not cut out to be doing admin stuffs. I hate it when my boss asked me to call the cleaning lady, asked me to order water cooler's water, asked me to buy stationery, asked me to subscribe to magazines.... I really HATE doing all that. But I have no choice because I'm just a Admin! *Sigh*
Maybe I should just change a job? Hmm... should I? Cos the pay is quite good, and I'm gonna start studying soon, thus the extra income would be useful in the long run. Plus I have bills and insurance to pay. But the job is just...
Another sad thing is that DollHouse is ending soon... Boo! Cant believe there's only 2 more episodes left. Wonder why FOX would wanna X that show... Anyone care to explain? I would have to wait until April for Glee to come back. Luckily, there are a few new shows that are coming out this month, so I'm kinda excited about it! Yipee...

2010
Happy New Year!!!
Its now 2010 and I had a very enjoyable first few days of 2010. New Year's eve was a half day for my work and so I met my friends and have lunch at Burger King, near my working place. We were going to discuss how much each person has to pay for the food and the jerseys that they bought for our friends. 9 of my friends and I were meeting on 1st of Jan 2009 to celebrate our 10 years of friendship! Yea, that's right! We have known each other since secondary school. After the lunch at Burger King, we went to another shopping center where I treated my friends to some desserts. After that, we just went home and that was it. I did not go out and party or countdown to New Year. I just practically stayed home, and watched the countdown celebration. Ya, I know its kinda boring, but I am starting to feel that I too old for these kinda countdown party because I don't really like the loud noise and the over crowded place. Its so hot and squeezy.
1st Jan 2010 was the most memorable and fun day I had for this new year. I'm having a barbecue session at my friend's house to celebrate our 10 years anniversary as friends! Before the barbecue, I met 2 of my friends for some sports, mainly squash, which was the first time that I have tried playing it. It was really fun and I enjoy it very much. You do not have to run very far,like soccer or baseball, because its all within the small room. But I have blisters and cuts after that. Lol, and my body is still aching. This is the sign of not exercising enough. Oh well, after squash, we went for swimming, in the rain. After that, we continued awhile of squash and finally went to shower and get ready for the barbecue!
I cant believe its Sunday now, because it means that tomorrow is Monday, and I will have to go back to work. Going back to work means that I have to submit my report tomorrow, help my boss to subscribe the few magazines and newspapers, do some media research, finish up the coding of some articles, and calling the cleaning auntie.
Life sucks. At least for me it does. And I still have to register myself into a school to get a degree. Wonder if I should continue working there, or get a part-time job. What do you guys think?
Anyway, that's all I have for today, see you!

Merry X'mas & a Happy New Year!!!
Yay~! Its the holiday seasons again! Merry Christmas to all... Alright, I know its a bit late to wish everyone but hey, better late then never, right? Oh and happy new year to everyone as well!
What I have done for this holiday? Hmmm, let's see...
I've been working my butt's off for that whole week... Trying to find all the magazines that my boss subscribes to and that has expired or is going to. But she wants me to fill in the subscription form on her behalf and I'm quite disturb by it. Why cant she fill up the form herself because am I suppose to write my name or hers? If I'm suppose to write mine, then what about the payment method? And if I'm suppose to write hers, I don't even know her particulars and credit card number. So I'm still trying to figure out how to ask her and when to ask her. You know, its going to be the end of 2009, so I do not want to ask her something so soon.
Then came Thursday where it was Christmas Eve! So I went to work as usual, but with a more festive mood. Send my news alert as usual in the morning. Was gonna continue with my other work in the afternoon when suddenly my boss asked me if I have sent my news alert and I said yes. Then she asked if I would be willing to go Vivo City to collect the log cake and the honey baked ham. Wasn't she suppose to pick it up herself? She even asked us to remind her. And now she's asking me to pick it up FOR HER!?!?! Then what's the use of reminding her when I've to collect them for her? I might as well remind myself. BUT, being her subordinate, I have no choice but to say I do not mind at all, while at the back of my mind, I was thinking of what I've just written earlier. Did I also tell you that it was raining heavily? So with an umbrella in my hand, off I go to Vivo City. It took me very long to collect the honey baked ham because there was some confusion. Apparently my boss did not leave her particulars down, thus the person spelled her name wrongly and I've to call her and confirm the order. What a dread! And the ham was not that light to carry. It came with a box that looks nice but does not feel good to hold as the edge were kinda sharp. So is the log cake, which also came with a box that was not good to hold. And lastly, I went and grab the garlic bread, which was an additional order by my boss because apparently, she likes it. I've to wait for 20mins for it because the waitress apparently gave my bread to someone else because that person only ordered 2, while I ordered 3. The worst part of it was we did not even finish eating one garlic bread later. After collecting everything, I was on my way down to the station to take the train back when I just found out that I've no hands to tap my card. So how am I suppose to get pass the gantry without tapping the card? Am I suppose to ask someone who may be in a bit of a giving mood and do not mind helping me to carry some boxes that weighs a ton while I reach for my card and scan it? But no, I did not do that, I just shove my ham under my arms and reach for my card. Thank god it was not raining when I went back so I was spared the agony of balancing 2 boxes and an umbrella at the same time.
Back in the office, all those I-do-not-know-who-they-are-but-its-my-boss's-friends-so-I-have-to-be-nice came and the office sure was crowded. Let me fast forward the whole Christmas lunch thingy and just said that I just mingle around with those I know and ate the fullest lunch that I'll ever eat, this year. Then came the most ridiculous part, it was already four plus in the evening when we finished our lunch. So we were trying to stuff whatever things we can to prolong the eating period so that we can reach 5pm, which is our official end work time. Then our boss looked at us, gave us the very cheeky look, and said, "Do you all know today is a half day? You all can go off after you all eat finish." We were all like, WTF!?!?! @#$%&... We said, "Why didn't you tell us before hand?" and she was like, "You all didn't ask so I never say." We were all like DOUBLE WTF!?!?! She said it as though there was nothing wrong with not telling us that it was a half day and it was our own fault for not asking her before that day. I was quite pissed and wanted to go off immediately, but my colleagues wanted to stay awhile, take photo, and help to clean up. So I tried to calm down and stayed awhile to help out. After that I went home to have a nap before going out with my friends to watch Sherlock Holmes. I was suppose to meet them earlier for dinner, but I ate a lot during lunch plus I overslept. Haha so I've no choice but to just meet them for the movie. Sherlock Holmes was a GREAT movie. I mean the solving of the murders was quite exciting. The fighting was really fantastic, even though we all knew that the real Sherlock Holmes would not fight like Robert Downey Jr. Haha, at least he was really funny and charismatic, so is Jude Law and Rachel McAdam. They were all equally good. All in all it was good, just that the screen was a bit dark, which spoil the movie a little, and the explanation of the murder was too brief and fast. He could have explained it in more details. Oh well, I still like the show and the character. Too bad I did not watch Avatar because I heard it was good. Plus it has Sam Worthington... LOL, that was for my sister =P
I just watched tv for the whole of Christmas day. Yeah you heard me right, I watched TV the whole day. There were nothing much to watch except CHRISTMAS SHOWS. Seriously, every show they shown were all about Christmas, from morning till night, the whole 24hrs. But I did get to watch G.I.Joe on Christmas day, with my sister. That was a pretty awesome show too. Sienna Miller was hot! Haha and so was Channing Tatum. And that guy from Hot Chick was also in it, very funny guy... Oh by the way, Chan is now married to Jenna Dewan, the actress who acted with him in Step Up. They married on 11 July 2009. Oh well, one more good guy being taken off the shelf...Haha, oh and I just found out that G.I Joe 2 will be coming out on 2011... Yipee!
I spent Christmas and Boxing day watching DollHouse. Lol yea I'm very lazy to go out. But I just cant understand why would FOX axed away DollHouse. Now that the show is gonna be over, the show has become really exciting, with Echo and the gang being the resistance party... lol, trying to fight against the Rossum corp. Haha it feels more and more like Terminator, with all the apocalyptic stuffs... but minus the robots. There are just so many shows that I have watched and I'm really lazy to review each and everyone of them. So I'll leave with just that, who knows, maybe I'll review another show next time.
Till next time then...
What I have done for this holiday? Hmmm, let's see...

Did I also tell you that it was raining heavily? So with an umbrella in my hand, off I go to Vivo City. It took me very long to collect the honey baked ham because there was some confusion. Apparently my boss did not leave her particulars down, thus the person spelled her name wrongly and I've to call her and confirm the order. What a dread! And the ham was not that light to carry. It came with a box that looks nice but does not feel good to hold as the edge were kinda sharp. So is the log cake, which also came with a box that was not good to hold. And lastly, I went and grab the garlic bread, which was an additional order by my boss because apparently, she likes it. I've to wait for 20mins for it because the waitress apparently gave my bread to someone else because that person only ordered 2, while I ordered 3. The worst part of it was we did not even finish eating one garlic bread later. After collecting everything, I was on my way down to the station to take the train back when I just found out that I've no hands to tap my card. So how am I suppose to get pass the gantry without tapping the card? Am I suppose to ask someone who may be in a bit of a giving mood and do not mind helping me to carry some boxes that weighs a ton while I reach for my card and scan it? But no, I did not do that, I just shove my ham under my arms and reach for my card. Thank god it was not raining when I went back so I was spared the agony of balancing 2 boxes and an umbrella at the same time.
Back in the office, all those I-do-not-know-who-they-are-but-its-my-boss's-friends-so-I-have-to-be-nice came and the office sure was crowded. Let me fast forward the whole Christmas lunch thingy and just said that I just mingle around with those I know and ate the fullest lunch that I'll ever eat, this year. Then came the most ridiculous part, it was already four plus in the evening when we finished our lunch. So we were trying to stuff whatever things we can to prolong the eating period so that we can reach 5pm, which is our official end work time. Then our boss looked at us, gave us the very cheeky look, and said, "Do you all know today is a half day? You all can go off after you all eat finish." We were all like, WTF!?!?! @#$%&... We said, "Why didn't you tell us before hand?" and she was like, "You all didn't ask so I never say." We were all like DOUBLE WTF!?!?! She said it as though there was nothing wrong with not telling us that it was a half day and it was our own fault for not asking her before that day. I was quite pissed and wanted to go off immediately, but my colleagues wanted to stay awhile, take photo, and help to clean up. So I tried to calm down and stayed awhile to help out. After that I went home to have a nap before going out with my friends to watch Sherlock Holmes. I was suppose to meet them earlier for dinner, but I ate a lot during lunch plus I overslept. Haha so I've no choice but to just meet them for the movie. Sherlock Holmes was a GREAT movie. I mean the solving of the murders was quite exciting. The fighting was really fantastic, even though we all knew that the real Sherlock Holmes would not fight like Robert Downey Jr. Haha, at least he was really funny and charismatic, so is Jude Law and Rachel McAdam. They were all equally good. All in all it was good, just that the screen was a bit dark, which spoil the movie a little, and the explanation of the murder was too brief and fast. He could have explained it in more details. Oh well, I still like the show and the character. Too bad I did not watch Avatar because I heard it was good. Plus it has Sam Worthington... LOL, that was for my sister =P
I just watched tv for the whole of Christmas day. Yeah you heard me right, I watched TV the whole day. There were nothing much to watch except CHRISTMAS SHOWS. Seriously, every show they shown were all about Christmas, from morning till night, the whole 24hrs. But I did get to watch G.I.Joe on Christmas day, with my sister. That was a pretty awesome show too. Sienna Miller was hot! Haha and so was Channing Tatum. And that guy from Hot Chick was also in it, very funny guy... Oh by the way, Chan is now married to Jenna Dewan, the actress who acted with him in Step Up. They married on 11 July 2009. Oh well, one more good guy being taken off the shelf...Haha, oh and I just found out that G.I Joe 2 will be coming out on 2011... Yipee!
I spent Christmas and Boxing day watching DollHouse. Lol yea I'm very lazy to go out. But I just cant understand why would FOX axed away DollHouse. Now that the show is gonna be over, the show has become really exciting, with Echo and the gang being the resistance party... lol, trying to fight against the Rossum corp. Haha it feels more and more like Terminator, with all the apocalyptic stuffs... but minus the robots. There are just so many shows that I have watched and I'm really lazy to review each and everyone of them. So I'll leave with just that, who knows, maybe I'll review another show next time.
Till next time then...

Random Blabber
Wasn't thinking that anyone would read my blog, other than mua(I)... =D
Anyway, its been a very long time since I blog. I still remember the last entry I wrote was during September, where I O.R.D, or in other term, I've just released from the Army. Is it a good or a bad thing? Well I kinda still miss the old days where I can go and do horizontal ironing of my bed sheet and body maintenance if I want to. In case anyone is reading my blog(which I doubt so...), those two things meant only one thing, and that is to sleep!~ Haha... Seriously, I can sleep wherever and whenever I want to, and don't have to do a lot of things in camp.

O.R.D
Yea!!! Finally I'm released from the army! After 2 years serving in the army, they have officially let me go... Although I'm free, I'm now jobless... Hopefully, I'll find a job a.s.a.p....
For the last 2 years in the army, thought its not all pleasant, I've actually learn a lot. I've made a lot of friends throughout my army lives... some are just normal hi bye friends, while there are some who I think I really treasure and will continue my friendship with them till I die... Haha, that sound so serious, but its true. I've also learn that no matter if you are in the army, or the corporate world, the only person you can depend on is just you. There are a lot of things that the army is very similar to the corporate world. We must also be very careful of how we present ourselves and what others think of us. Other than how the corporate world is going to be like, I've also learn other things like independent, how to clean up my own room, pack my own stuffs, and if I want something, I have to achieve it myself.
Now that I'm out of the army, I'm frantically trying to find a job! Its so difficult to find one nowadays. I'm not choosy, its just that not all jobs are suitable for me. All the companies that called me are insurance companies or what they call, 'wealth management consultant', ' finiancial consultant'. Seriously, I do not think I'm up to the task of selling insurance to people because I know that if I do not believe in insurance, how am I suppose to sell what I do not believe in to others?
I went out with my secondary school friends on Friday night to have dinner and celebrate 2 of our friends' birthdays. Its been awhile since I saw them, and believe it or not, this year is gonna be our 10 years anniversary! Haha, we are so gonna plan a party to celebrate our 10 years of friendship.
Let me tell you a very interesting and embarrassing story...
My friends and I always meet up on Sunday morning to have a run down the canal. We have a twin sisters, lets call them TQ and TY. 'TQ' is my friend and TY is her sister.
So the story starts whereby I'm waiting for my friends at a bus stop, so 'TQ' came and without really looking at her, I just said hi and we continue to meet another friend, R. So along the way, 'TQ' told me that despite going to the toilet before she went out of her house, she still feeling a need to go to the toilet again when she reach here. So I told her shit happens sometimes and we will find her the nearest coffeeshop so that she can relieve herself. So we met up with R, who is also my friend. So the 3 of us, 'TQ', R and I started walking to the nearest coffeeshop. Then 'TQ' start the conversation and half way through it, she asked if I was W, and I was like, c'mon, are you kidding me? We've been friends for 10 years and you are asking my this kinda question? So I was feeling a bit annoyed but nonetheless told her yes. 2 weeks before this run, TQ sms my other male friend, QW, and told him to remind the other guys that there will be a run, not that QW is not a guy. So i ask 'TQ' why did she sms him like tat. So 'TQ' was like, 'WHAT?!' she looks very confused and I was very confused too. Then R turn and point at 'TQ' and said to me, "W, this is TY, not TQ!". I was like "&@^$!" Omg... lol! That was then that I finally realized that I was talking to TY all along, and not TQ! I've mistaken TY as TQ!!! They both look quite different if you look at them carefully. So I quickly apologized to TY and said that I have not fully woken up just now, but now I am, after this embarrassing moment.
Haha, this incident taught me to look carefully at my friends before I start babbling away...
