got so many things i wanna blog abt but i feel so tired now..
18th may, sun
went to amk market to eat breakfast with my mum today. it has been a long time since i did tt. a great feeling indeed.. but it's oso been a long time since i woke up tt early. normally i wld wake up juz in time for lunch.. tts how slack i have been this hols. lol.
went back home and played mj with family.. i knew my mum loves to play this game so i reserved the time for her and we had fun in the process. juz as i was about to rest after the game, gt a call from kat and as u wld have guessed, another mj session. this time went to liangmin's house. my first time there and they decided to play bigger stakes tt night. so we played 50cents $1 mj. woah! my first time playing tt and it was kinda exciting. gaming 1 tai is gd enough for such stakes. but i kinda enjoy 20 40 mj better. more relaxing..
at tt time, the tv was showing programs raising money for the ppl in China who suffered from the earthquake.. it was so disheartening but at the same time heartwarming to see so many ppl gathered together for a common cause.. to help the ppl in need, regardless of their nationality.. it has indeed been a disastrous yr, myanmar alone was bad enough, now it has to be china.. aint 08 supposed to be a blissful year? do u know the day tt the earthquake struck, it was juz nice 88 days from the Beijing olympics which is taking place on 08/08/08.. how scary can tt be.. maybe it was all predestined. may all those who lost their lives to the nature rest in peace...
after the mj session, i rushed home to go to the temple with my family. bcoz it was past midnight and it was Vesak day. guang ming shan was flooded with ppl so we decided to try other temples but they were all not open. so we went back to guang ming shan and finally gt a parking slot. went in to pray but din stay for long coz my sis legs were feeling painful. she got some problem with her knee such tt it hurts whenever she tries to bend it when walking the stairs. recently, she gt some problem with her chest too.. having difficulties swallowing food, sometimes even drinks. went to do a X-ray but results came back positive. doctor suggested further analysis if the problem still persists after eating the medicine. haiz.. i think she might be too stressed up or tired from work. hope she recovers soon!! health is still the most impt..
19th may, mon
went to malaysia again to top up fuel and eat breakfast.. feeling totally tired to wake up so early again, esp since ystd i only managed to sleep ard 2am after the visit to the temple. after the morning trip, i went for my kbox session with sec sch friends! back to amk kbox and whoo, there were so many ppl! luckily we got ourselves a room so the 5 of us started singing. it was my first time singing with shimin and kel.. shimin's voice is good, pretty high pitched.. kel'c voice is versatile, sounding most like ah du, but at times he sounded like li sheng jie too.. nice singing with them, but they were more of the singing type than the crazy type. lol.. and we keep forgetting the name of the artist who sang the duet with li sheng jie.. now i finally kept it in my mind.. he is called lin long xuan.. i bet jialiang cant rem already.. lol. they started to chase us out at 6pm coz they told us beforehand tt due to the crowd, kstudent tt day was only until 6pm. but we insisted on staying until 7pm. hahaz. they only came in twice to remind us tt time is up.. uz as we were abt to sing our last song, they cut the song off. hahaz.. it was abit pass 7pm then. i think they gt pissed trying to chase us out.. so we din get to sing our last song "one night in beijing".. i was tt close to breaking my record of singing till there was no song on the list.. but we had fun! k again soon anybody??
20th may, tue
went to work today.. a one day belaying job recommended by sebas.. alot of ppl was like "huh, wat is belaying".. a belayer is someone who tk carez of the safety of the climber.. u know those ppl who do rock-climbing, there is always someone below to tighten the rope so tt he wun fall.. tts the job of a belayer.. muz be certified to do tt wor.. luckily last time in hc oac, we took up rock-climbing courses. i am now a level 2 certified climber.. next time got such lobang can find me.. it's quite fun.. not the usual boring office jobs.. woke up at 530am!! it has been ages since i woke up tt early.. even during sch time, i din have to wake up so early.. drove to CDANS at bukit gombak.. b4 tt, went to buy cofffee and tea for sebas and shiwei coz they spent the night there. was kinda shocked when i saw the parking fees at tt place, but was relieved when the camp chief passed me a complimentary ticket.. how nice of him..
reached there ard 7am as i was told, in the end they started only ard 8am!! could have slept for one more hr la! grrr.. so my day as a belayer for those pri sch kids started.. girls from Haig Girls School were on a one day enrichment trip i think.. they did all the rope elements and i was the belayer for the rock wall, together with shiwei.. they used static ropes for ur info! it was so painful to grab and pull the rope.. if i have known, i wld have brought along my gloves.. now i've gt 2 blisters on my left hand.. and it was really tiring to belay for 6hrs although they are juz pri sch kids.. earned 70 bucks for the day and got to know more ppl. not a bad experience at all! unique job experience and fun-loving ppl!
21st may, wed
blading day!! finally after a much awaited week. coz last tue or wed (cant really rem) it rained, so we had to postpone our trip to ECP to today.. went on a blading trip with my uni classmates.. it has been ages since i last blade.. cant rem the feeling and fell the moment i went down the first slope. lol. but it was fun.. total falls count = 3.. not tt bad!! the guy at the rental shop keep talking to us, more of flirting i wld say.. coz we had 7 gals and only 2 guys.. and most of us arent really tt gd at blading.. so off we went! went to the rim first to get a hang of the blades.. then headed off to the main path.. our destination was supposed to be the jetty.. but we were too slow to reach it in the 2hrs time span.. it was funny to see how meiling and eileen blade.. they were new at it and falls count was soaring.. lol.. but we definitely had fun!! the sun wasnt blazing and it was windy, great weather! can check out my fb for photos.. too bad my phone low batt, if not could have taken more photos!
went to parkway parade to have our dinner and the mee rebus store at the foodcourt really has super huge servings! they tasted nice too according to my friends.. next time can try if u are there.. after dinner, i decided to go to yin yue's hall at ntu to watch soccer.. more ppl, more fun.. soccer was at 245am so before tt we had plenty of time.. played mj at her bf's room.. they were a funny bunch of ppl and they all have the same accent and kou tou chan.. muz be er3 ru2 mu4 ran3.. interesting.. anw i ended with a 5 tai! and it was bao1 wan zi already. his friend still threw wan zi. i was stunned when i saw it.. cant believe tt i still can win.. but he was the only person winning at tt time. so after he bao me, he still won! not tt bad la.. and bcoz of tt, i came back from losing to win..
then it was soccer time!! champions league finals.. Man U is the winner again!!! so happy for them.. first half was a blast.. with so many golden opportunities but it ended up 1-1.. i muz admit tt man u dominated the first half, but chelsea dominated the second.. it was a great match tt came down to penalties.. penalties is all abt luck and of coz skills.. it was raining pretty heavily at tt time so it added on to the pressure.. and my sixth sense told me tt ronaldo will miss it, and guess wat, he really did! so disappointed.. he was lucky tt terry slipped for the last penalty and provided man u with anoter glimpse of hope.. van der saa saved the day!! hurrays to him.. it was really heart pounding and dramatic.. the ball hit the goal post twice for chelsea.. juz not their day i would say.. but it was a well-fought match except for the foolish red card tt drogba got.. it was really so much more exciting and fun to watch soccer with so many ppl.. supporters for different sides in the same room.. if not it wld have been juz me cheering in my own room... drove home after tt.. as usual, i enjoyed the feeling of driving at night.. so carefree.. not forgetting to keep a lookout for police cars at times.. lol..
22nd may, thurs
tonight was american idol finale! i was quite disappointed tt david cook won the show thou both the davids were marvellous.. david archeleta (dunnoe how to spell) is such a talent.. at only 17, he is capable of owning the stage and grabbing everyone's attention.. so always pursue ur dreams coz u can nv predict wat will happen tml! dun live ur life with regrets.. if u failed, at least u tried..

oh. nearly forgot the joke per entry promise.. so here it goes.. this one is abit adult joke.. different genre everytime!
A little boy was visiting his grandmother and the young boy asked his grandmother, "grandma, how old are you?" She replied, "you shouldn't ask me questions like that." A few minutes past and the young boy asked his grandmother another question, "how much do you weight?" The grandmother replied, "you shouldn't ask me questions like that! "
The following week when the little boy went back to school he told his friends about the coversation he had with his grandmother and how he was unable to get an answer from her. The little boy's friends advised him to look on her drivers license, all the information will be there. The next week when the little boy was visiting his grandmother he told her he knew how much she weighed and how old she was. The grandmother didn't believe him until he told her, "you weigh 130lb., and you are 65 years old." Then the little boy in a bashfull way whispered to his grandmother, "I also know you got an F in Sex."
