I CAN'T WALK DOWN THE STAIRS


I'm into my second day of recovery for AHM...
and I still can't walk down a flight of stairs without holding on to the railings like a arthristis-plagued old nana!

My hamstring,calves, quadriceps, shin, butt, back, arms are still hurting like hell!!!
Never engaged in a more FULL BODY workout than this.

I'm walking ard in the MOUNTAINOUS campus of NTU like a freaking spastic. Imagine me walking with my knees locked perpetually.
(I can't unlock my knees the slightest bit cos they will wobble like salmon's belly and I will be on kissing the ground!)

How am I going to depress the clutch for driving tmw?


Going for GE later...and the only reason why we (me and caline) are even going for the lesson is bcos of cute Adidas guy! mhuhaua....bitches!


RAT RACE


Having a whole lot of recruitment talks these days.
From the Big 4 to the Big 3 consulting firms and to the Banks..

Why is everybody so eager to get a job so soon when we're not even done with graduating.

I'm already feeling the heat of the paper chase when I'm not even at the starting line..Most of my peers have already signed contracts with big firms....most of them are on the deans' list...

I'm on the .....I'm....I'm not on any damn lists!

A bleak future beckons me....

I will come out with a worthless degree, work as a lowly auditor for some obscure sounding cheena-fied CPA firm, earn a meagre salary, and work to my death.

I want to be buried face down when I die, so the world can kiss my ass!

Soon...soon I will get down to choosing a new blog skin...
will try to deviate away from a brown themed one. I can't help it, BROWN is my favourite colour.


It's always the same feeling. Why settle for 2nd best when you can have the best?

Why eat any other burger, other than Mushroom swiss when you can have it?

Why do I always eat the teriyaki don at jap restaurants?

Why go anywhere else besides Zouk?


Some pea-brained readers would probably not see my point or the link.
I forgive you.

I'm afraid of changing the status quo of things. I'm afraid of venturing out of the tried and tested methods, the comfort zone.

I'm just happy where I'm. Is the grass really greener on the other side?

Its Wed...Its FYP day!


Why am I sounding sardonically happy about doing FYP???


Anyway...not much was done. Spent most of our time talking about OC, our plans for the weekend, blah blah blah...

Pls gals! Its our only hope of ever graduating with a decent degree!!

Endorphines

I'M JOINING THE ARMY HALF MARATHON!!!

Yes yes..join in the rank of critics against this move of mine..aand mock me abt this decision...


"pls la...by the time you gals reach the finishing point, they would have already dismantled the tentage and took down the FINISH sign"


"Tink they wld probably ask u gals to drop out and forget it"


"How long would you gals take? 24 hrs?!?"


ASSHOLES!! I'm sure we're not a bunch of pale white lilied skin ah lians who can't run for nuts!


I have found a exercise partner in caline. She doesn't have a reason to work out..cos she is so damn skinny. But I do..I hate my child bearing hips!!

so she basically exercises to keep up the happy hormones and destress.
Which I think is really good!
Nothing beats the feeling after a jog and you are soaking in that hot tub...
That sweet sleep in the night after a great evening work out...
Its simply revitalising.


I guess the problem for most of us is taking that first step out.
Getting our bums of the bed, putting on our running shoes,, and hitting the tracks.
Trust me, it sure is worth the effort.

After that, it will the 2nd Link Marathon on the 10th!

Maronic Murphy

Plans to go sentosa was foiled...but why am I not surprised? It always happens to me.


Be it a trip to the beach or for a dip in the pool, Murphy always proves his law right!!!!


So here am I blogging instead of getting a wicked tan at sentosa.

Why can't Murphy conceed just this once for me!?!? My school is re-opening this coming Monday...has he got no sympathy for us!?!!!!!?!!!!!!!!!


Had mahjong last night with the gang.....its been a long while I must say. But its fun!

Altho it still takes awhile for me to learn how to read the "direction" tiles. I simply can't tell which is North, South, East or West.

My chinese sucks.


As usual, I always end out of point. My dad has a penchant for ducks. I realised I have alot of duck figurines in my hse...

told ya its senseless.

IDOL FEVER


Had my first stab at singing in a KTV today. Perhaps its from watching too much Singapore Idols that we girls have decided to sing instead of clubbing at Zouk.

We settled at Party World in Chinatown.

before that caline and angeline has already prepared me for the overly "cheena" decor...so it was not much of a cultural shock for me when we got there.

I must say KTVs has got to be one of the places that totally overprice their beverages and food. Can u imagine a pathetic plate of fruits (predominantly watermelons) costs us $12!!!!?!?

With $12, i could get dunno how many big red juicy whole watermelons loh!!!!!


On a totally different note altogether....I would like to holler at the stoooopid banks in Spore..esp OCBC!!!They just raised the minimum deposit requirement!! Now I have to maintain at least $1000 in my savings account if I dun want they to deduct $2 every month. ARGH!!!


BLOODSUCKERS!!!


Is everyone else getting richer around me or is it the inflation rate hitting an all time high?!?
Think its the former.

I need a job.


Thankfully, my suddenly very generous daddy offered to top up my account so that I would not be deducted the sum every month. He is gonna transfer SGD1000 tmw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yippie!!!!!!!

Sunday, 5th


Went to Jumbo Restaurant to celebrate my mummy's bdae. It has got to be the most expensive meal we have ever eaten. My daddy swiped $306 for the meal!


The lobster sashimi has got to be the most unforgettable dish tt evening. The "processed" lobster was still waving at me on the plate while I was eating its flesh piled up neatly beside it!!! YEEKS!!!!!!!


Ate bamboo clams for the 1st time. Didn't know tt the "bamboo" is its shell. Silly me.


My dad was beaming proudly in the photo we took as a family. Family that day includes Sam and my brother's gf...


Monday, 6th


Projects, projects and projects....
I'm plagued with Free Loaders. Sigh......


We are usually given peer evaluation forms to assess our teammates performance on a project. However, who in the right mind would want to sow discord by awarding ur free loader teammate a lower % and accredit oneself with the resulting higher proportion?

No one.

Brainless professors. Teaching so much about controls and risk management but yet dun even know how to immplement it in real life.

All of them living in their little bubble.


Tues, 7th


Went to GE lessons only to be surprised by a speech assignment we had to prepare.


Caline and me have officially rated Mr -100 Points as Mr -Infinity that day. EEEEDOIT! Never tell us got presentation!!!!!!!!!!

Thankfully, our doeful innocent eyes won the heart of our prof over. We can present it next lesson.


Wed, 8th


Caline and Joel came over my place to do our FYP project. FINALLY we got down to doing something!

Those vain brats refuse to let me take a pic of them deep in discussion. They are not to be caught dead in the nerdy specs. Sheesh....*rolls eyeballs*


Thurs, 9th


In limbo for most part of the day.

Dyed hair for sam. Finally I managed to convince him that black is dull.


Friday, 10th


Went over with my 205 grp mates to Sam's office. Interviewed him for our project.

Its funny trying to be professional and serious when I'm simply wacky with him.

But Sam is definitely one guy who exudes confidence. He spoke like a guy with 20 yrs of experience this aftnoon when in fact it has been only merely a year since he took over the reins of the biz.


Nicely done baby!

I'm Broke!


Sept is the month.

Its the birthday of my 'beloved's. On the 5th its my dearest mummy's big day, and on the 7th is sam's bdae.

Bought a watch for my mum. Set me back S$155. Thankfully, my brother had some winnings from his soccer bettings, so he chipped in too. The watch is lovey.
Class with a look reminiscent of the antique past. In fact, I think I would be wearing it more often than my mummy! haha...evil plan to get another watch to my wardrobe.

Have already decided to get a phone for sam cos his current mobile is simply.....hideous.
Motorola phone sucks! SuckyMoto


So I happily walked into one of those neighbourhood ah beng handphone shop in tampines and enquired about the price of a nokia 6610i. After much bargaining in my distasteful hokkien mixed with chinese and peppered with english, I managed to depress the original price down by $20!

just when i'm about to pay...

ah beng: Xiao jie, your contract only reached 21 months this 14th...not today!I cant sell it to you at this price already (of course all tt wasn't in english, just too difficult for me to type it out in chinese or hokkien!)

me: HUH!!!!si ma!?? zhe me ban!?!

ah beng: mei you ban fah. Ru guo ni shi wo de gf, wo jiu mai gei ni! *lewd smile*

I was stupified and disgusted. I immediately snatched back my IC and ran out of the shop!
I would walk into another one of these ah beng shop with much trepidation next time.



Sam's bdae is on the 7th.
Getting the phone without upgrades will cost me $385!!!!
That would bring my bank account to a new low ever!


I have to digress here.
I just found out yesterday that my project mate's english name is JOEL!!!
YET ANOTHER ONE!!!?!?
Is this a cruel joke or wat?!?


He is the 7th joel I know of! Is Joel really such a common name!??!??!
I think I must be the person on earth who knows the most JOELs!

There's simply no running away....
