hole in the gum..and the pocket!

thurs nite
me: actually it's no big deal, juz plucking a tooth. sounds troublesome for u..don't have to come
k: it's okay..it's times like this a girlfriend needs her boyfirend the most.
very sweet rite? i was grinning widely when i read the sms. although dearie is not the very sweet and romantic kind of guy, but it's little things like this which he said and did that really melts my heart.

was so glad that he accompanied me to the dentist. it's was painful after the anesthetic wears off. i was both hungry and in pain. double attack. he bought me a glass of ice milo and described the funny scenes from futurama to me, juz to make me laugh. u know, so i can forget about the pain. i felt really blissful at that moment.

on the bus to suntec, the hole started to bleed again when my tongue accidentally touched it. *itchy finger, in this case will be tongue!* looked at my mirror and there's this bloody piece of thing which looks like flesh sticking out from the wound!! wat was that?!?!? dearie told me it's my nerve..and it will dropped off after some time (coz the nerve is connected to my tooth so since i extracted it out, only the nerve is left). nerve?? but it seems too big to be a nerve!! not that i have seen one b4..immediately, i touched my lips. good, i can still feel them..

jean muz be shocked when she saw me. i waved to her and dragged her into guardian wif me. i need some more guage to stop the bleediing!! and the pharmacist was useless. dunno anything. thought he will help me wif the guage or something, but he juz open the packet for me and shoo us away. it's was quite a frantic scene. or rather, i was acting frantic!!

called the clinic eventually when it opened at 6. the nurse told me that it's a piece of substance which the dentist put inside the gum to stop the bleeding! no wonder it's bloody coz it's soaked wif blood! (imagine a piece of cotton pressed against an open wound) she assured me that it would dissolved over time. phew! but she should have told me earlier on when i was still at the dentist. then i won't be looking like an idiot at guardian and walking around suntec wif a piece of guage in my mouth. and when i talked, i sound as if i'm mumbling. imagine that's how i would sound like when i have braces.

goodness, next week it'll be painful x1000!! not only am i gonna extract another tooth, i'm putting in braces too! so much for the price of vanity..think dearie can finally have some peace coz someone won't be yaking away..

after i got back to hall, show my frenz the hole in my gum and told them about the whole extracting part. *ouch* they were all quite grossed out. esp roomie when i showed her the tooth.

who wouldn't be? heh..it's big rite? saw the bloody part of the tooth? that's supposed to be in the gum..*yucks!*

jean finished her exams yesterday but it seems like i was the one who finished instead. we both bought a small black handbag from dorothy perkins. guess wat? it's only 13 bucks!! cheap cheap rite? perhaps it's mock leather but the design is kinda nice and it's very versatile! can bring out for almost any occasion.

and i bought a halter top, and it was my first piece of clothing from mango! unbelievable rite? mango is like so the girls' shop and u would expect every girl to own at least a few pieces of their clothing. not me though! haha...and i saw some clothes at warehouse. very nice and boho! when i'm more loaded, i'm definiely going in to try a few pieces of them.

now u know why i said i'm like the one who juz had her last paper. she's probably too tired to shop..since she had 2 papers. i almost bought another white top wif sequins from dorothy perkins but i stopped myself. though it's nice, it's not worth the price. the sequins looked kinda..cheapskate..and it's didn't fit well at the chest area. it's my too small boobs! arrghhh...

felt really good after shopping. wanted to get a visor but can't seem to find any nice one.

guess retail theraphy is still the best form of stress reliver..

superhuman..

something is very wrong wif me. firstly, i only had 2 hours of sleep last nite and then i went for my tax paper. after that, instead of repaying the sleep debt, i surfed the net, did some amendments to my blog (added in a chatterbox and music video! yippie!!)and went for a 30 laps swim. by right and logically speaking, i should be dead tired now. but i'm not!! i did my laundry, continued wif my surfing and even played mahjong!! it's now midnight and i dun even feel sleepy!! help!!

so i'm gonna try and get some work done.

it's the 2nd leg. run a good race.

lardball on a chopping board...

half of my body juz got chopped off. waist-down, waist-up or u can even pick splitting my body into 2 parts.
the paper for advanced tax was terrible!! there were 3 questions and the marks allocation were 30, 50 and 20 respectively. guess wat? the ingenius me spent 35 mins on question 2!! technically i spent only 15 mins writing the answer coz i spend 20 mins flipping thru the notes and income tax act. and after i submitted the answer booklet, i was busy punching in numbers on my calculator, not becoz i was trying to see if i got my calculations correct, but i was actually calculating the amount of marks i need to get for this paper in order to pass!!

surprisingly, i am no longer very bothered about having the F or E grade on the cert anymore. nah, it's not that i'm damn confident that i can pass the paper or that it's an extra ge so it would affect my grades, but rather, the fact that i actually went for the paper is far more important than anything else. i felt i didn't let myself down. thank god i went for it and chose not to take the mc which is the easy way out. if not, i will be terribly disappointed wif my own attitude.

and for the record, i only slept for 2 hours!! and the energy is still bursting within me!(haha..this phrase sounds weird) actually, i could have stay awake the entire nite but i forced myself to sleep at 5 coz i didn't want to have a mental block during the paper. i guess finally getting this paper over and done wif was a huge relief to me. and it was't that bad a start to this exams though i need to plan my time and the way i answer the questions more efficiently.

the weather looks good so i'm going for a swim! hehe..need to reward myself for staying so motivated and focused for the past few days..=)

sleepy..but still hanging on..

think this is the fourth or fifth day when i slept at unearthly hours..and tried to wake up at earthly hours(morning) to study.

alarm rang at 9.45, i switched it off and went back to bed.

at 9.55, dearie called. i answered the call but accidentally closed the folder. Opps! he called again, after mumbling a few words, i continued to lie on the bed and fall right back into slumber land.

at 10.14am, he smsed
k: awake? go study or i'll kick ur arse
me: i'm lazing on the bed..
and i went back to sleep again.

at 10.30am, he smsed again
k: i'm gonna kick ur ass
me: u're in nus..

finally at 11.30, i got out of bed. why? coz i need to pee! hee..and also bathed. the weather is so hot such that me actually perspired when i'm asleep!! the amazing thing is..i could still sleep despite the uneasiness.

and so now, i know wat i need to do to wake myself up. drink lotsa water b4 i sleep.

P.S. tax planning is interesting to study...but i'm getting tired..*sighz*

gear 3 and still roaring!!!

muahahaha..i have finished wat i planned to study for 304 and I'M GONNA START STUDYING FOR TAX NOW!!! *grinz* i'm feeling damn proud of myself coz i finished one topic (consist of 1 30+ pages chapter, 1 20 pages act & 1 set of sem notes) in less than 4hours!! this proves to me that i can achieve 3 seminars (or even more) in a day if i'm really focused!

i still have 10 more seminars to cover b4 i can start on the exam papers. all that to be accomplish in 3.5 days and i'm feeling hopeful about it!

alright, let's get started on tax! here comes the tax guru..*bleah*

devil at work..

had a battle wif my inner self again.
last afternoon, the thought of taking mc for mon's paper, advanced taxation, which happens to be my first paper for this exam, came back to bug me again =( this time, i even went to the examination website to check out the consequences if i am to report sick for it! one of my tut frenz is not going for the paper and that kinda tempt me even further.

i sat down, try to weigh the pros and cons and talked to a few frenz about it...one even said i'm behaving like a robot coz humans dun think that rationally!! haha..at that point of time, was quite determined not to go..then i can spend the next 2 days mugging for my 304 paper. yup, me intend to spend only 2 days studying for my tax paper which is a 4 au subject. i'm such a genius rite?

so i decided not to go for it...
then..the angel in me gave me a few tight slaps and finally woke me up from slumber land!! and i realised the real me do not want these thoughts to haunt me months or years down the road. "why are u a quitter??", "why did u give up halfway? that's not you!!" and most of all, i do not want to regret not going for the paper and moan about having that 3 alphabets ABS on my cert.

my frenz said i worried too much. coz after mon's paper, there are still 3 more days for me to prepare for my next paper. instead of me spending my time worrying and battling wif myself over this issue time and time again, why dun i juz spend them studying??!!??

precisely! and this time, i shut the devil out once again and never will he have the chance to tempt me. i'm soo going for the paper and i'm not gonna change my mind again. i will be prepared for it, and will not regret my choice!

daily plan:
bedtime-4am
wakey wakey: 8am
my new plan is to sleep only 4 hours a day!! and shit!! I JUZ OVERSLEPT BY 2 HOURS! hahahaha...but i guess having 6 hours of sleep is a good start afterall...i used to sleep 8-9 hours! heh

another bimbotic act..

ya..i know i dun exactly fulfill the criteria to be a bimbo..neither do i have the boobs or looks for it..but sometimes the silly side of me kinda got the better of me. and i can't find another word besides bimbotic to describe wat i have jzu done.

juz this morning, as i packed all my dirty laundry and prepared to wash them, i stood outside the laundry room for like 3 mins??!?!? pressing in different combinations trying to get the damn door to open! i mean how could i forget the code? it has only been 2 weeks! i guess my brain is too small to accomodate that 4 digit code, esp now wif the overwhelming info from aa306 & aa304. but still? how stupid can i get? i muz have look like a total idiot, standing outside the laundry room half awake, hair in a mess and looking totally helpless. thank goodness someone came out of the toilet and save my day!

in a week's time, i'll be sitting for my first paper. actually, i'm still considering should i go for it or not. u see..i took it as an extra ge module which was a bad choice. why was i acting so geeky then? now i'm debating wif myself if i should go for the paper or juz take an mc and report as absent. have this feeling that i'm gonna either fail it or get a D, which would kinda uglified my cert coz i haven't gotten any D before. sighz..but i have been slacking so much so that i've fallen one week behind my revision time table. real bad! and this devillish part of me kept asking me to take an mc and use the extra days to study for my 2 main core papers. but i dun wanna be a quitter. so wat if i get a D or fail? it's not gonna affect my grades coz it's an extra subject. the thing is..will i really make use of the extra few days to study? or will i juz waste them away?

where has the fighting spirit in me gone to? i remember when i was in jc, preparing for the A levels, i was so motivated and diligent. i went to sch everyday even though there were no more lessons, juz to study in the library or canteen. or i'll go alone to the cc to study. and the results were satisfying. i got the grades i wanted and to my utter surprise, even became the top arts student.

and now in uni, the last phase of my student life, here i am wasting my time away. sometimes i wonder, would it have been better if i didn't stay in hall? then probably i'll mix more wif my tut frenz..which could have make me more hardworking. ya, i shouldn't depend on others to feel inspired, but sometimes, that tiny winy bit of competition and seeing someone mug and mug, tends to grow on you, hence benefits you. of course, excessive competition is never good.

so much grumblings but i guess it's too late to think about those now. however, it's never too late to start studying now! i have to complete the daily target which i set for myself! gambette!!

advanced Birthday celebration..

as dearie's birthday is on the eve of his first paper, his family decied to celebrate his birthday earlier. uncle saw this ad on tv..and off we went to 'yu chun yuan' near chinatown for dinner. we were greeted wif a pleasant surprise as we were told we could order a peking duck for 76 cents if the total amount of dishes we ordered is at least $76. wow! wat a bargain!

the peking duckie was not too bad..but the other dishes were not that fantastic. but the restaurant certainly look exquisite as it was decorated similar to the hong kong style. over dinner, i asked an extremely bimbotic question..at least that was wat dearie claimed.

me: wat kind of food is bejing duck?
uncle: errr..*pause* beijing
dearie: U MEAN U DUNNO IT'S FROM BEIJING?????!?!?! THAT IS SOOOO BIMBOTIC!!!
everyone erupted into fits of laughters.

i have juz became the clown of the nite. when i asked that question, i was actually referring to wat kind of dialect food is that. like cantonese or teochew? coz the restuarant is a cantonese one. of course i know peking duck originated from beijing! DUH!!! but then again, is french fries from france?? hehe

after dinner, we went back home for the cake cutting. the car journey was cool..as the 3 of us (including shu) were clowning behind the car. then i asked another question...a more intellectual one i muz say..

me: wat else have we not put inside a hp to make it more conventient for human beings? i mean we have camera phone, phone that can play mp3, act as a palmtop and surf the net. how about one wif a cooling(one wif a fan) mechanism?
a: not bad..spore is so hot.
s: maybe we can put an over inside
whahahahah...=P

happy family! taken together wif his parents and sister, shu


not a very well taken photo coz can hardly see dearie's eyes


think i need to cut my hair after the exams. looked so messy and unkept in the photos =(

heh. my supposed quarantine period wif dearier has been shortened from 1 month to 2 weeks! =P coz later i'll be joining him and and his family for his early bday dinner at suntec. yeah!! i miss him so much...though we get to 'see' each other online almost everyday and i've been bugging him thru sms..*evil grinz* but still, it's not enuff!!

i'm gonna get him a little prezzie aka an appetizer gift. this prezzie is the juz-for-laughs kind of prezzie. think wat he really want is a similar pair of m frame which he had lost during the nus bi or a new timex watch since his '3rd' watch died on him a few weeks ago. but the poor me do not have enuff $$ to get those for him. so i'm gonna psycho him to let me chip in half the amount instead. ya..no surprise element, but dearie is not those kind who needs and wants fanciful surprises on his bday. lucky for me coz i'm really quite bad at keeping secrets from him. u see..if i'm planning some BIG va-va-voom thingie, that means i have to lie to him which i'm sure he could see thru it. haha...

woke up this morning wif the intention to swim. the weather was breezy..no sun and i fell asleep last nite while reading my notes. (wat's new??!??!) so i've juz postponed my swimming to yet another day...i better spend my next few hours wif trombley b4 i embark on my 'appetizer' shopping journey later.

You'll Never Walk Alone

i should really be sleeping rite now or at least trying to study. but i am too excited to do anything besides surfing the net for reviews and photos on the Liverpool vs Juventus 2nd leg quarter finals.

pool was amazing. they defended like solid rock walls and juventus had few chances. frankly, i thought last week's game was much better, more offensive from both sides. guess the tactis for this leg is different as i felt juventus was trying to be patient and slowly tear pool's defence apart. the tempo was slow..but 2nd half saw pool trying to attack! but baros missed the only shot on target. wat a close shave! anyway, below are some of the highlights and pix i got from the net. enjoy!!

and before i sign off, " SEMIS HERE WE COME!! YAYAY!!

mudane life

i have actually thought that i would have nothing to blog about during this period since my life is such a routine. sleeping, studying, eating, napping, surfing the net and once in a while watch my fave tv program 'Amazing Race'. but no matter how mudane my life is, i've realised that there are some things which i wanna talk about, well, at least to myself.

oh well, the taiwan trip is offically cancelled! haha...mayb kinda expected by some, but not to despair, i'm not totally not going anywhere this holidays. for a starter, most prob the sch of mahjong gang is gonna head down to bintan or batam for a weekend trip!! yeah...this is rather confirm. juz need to wait for bao's response and we can chop and stamp that particular weekend in july!

and..i'll be going to indonesia wif nianzhi to visit hanny!! probably will drop by bali or one of those islands in indo. this would prob take place in mid july. let's hope i do not start work in july! hahaha..*risky risky* but first of all, i need to pass my this coming exams and hopefully get a 2nd lower?? time to step up my gear!! *roarz*

hmm..seems like my this holidays gonna be spend on islands..haha..even spore is classified as an island! haha...

oh yah, i'm gonna join amora's membership. cost 190 bucks for a 3 months membership which consisted of a once a week visit including gym usage. cool! now i can work off those excess fats gained during the mugging season.

haha..sounds like some baby porridge rite? heh, but it's nice! go try it...or instead of using fresh red snapper, can try to use those canned tuna, those meant for sandwich. it's really good too!

MISSION HOME STUDY ABORTED

went back home on mon after my visit to the dentist. brought back all my books..but alas! i spent the next 4 days slacking at home. my time was spent glued to the tv, watching all the dramas and champions league! arrghhh...i'm totally disappointed wif myself -__-" so..i decided to abort the mission and head back to hall instead. heh

finally i finished the first chapter of 306 yesterday and it was supposed to be done like mon??!?!?! shit! i'm totally behind the 2nd schedule. yup. it's the 2nd time table which i have planned for myself coz i simply juz lagged behind the first one by too much. see, this is a real procrastinator at work.

anyway, met up wif hanny last nite. haven't seen her like ???? god knows how many months! think at most 1 year. quite a lot of catching up to do and we had dinner at minotti. it was good..but expensive. the 2 of us ate 56 bucks worth of food! had calamari, crabcakes and penne. but the ambience was great! the place was so packed we had to be put on the waiting list.

while shopping, i saw a few clothes to my liking from WAREHOUSE. i fell in love wif them right away! but since it wasn't a shopping trip and exams r juz round the corner (how can i shop??) and we juz had so much to talk about, i jzu browsed thru some of the pieces. man, they were expensive. at least 100 bucks per top. but they were really nice. hope they have a sale after my exams.

we caught the movie pacifier. not too bad, kinda funny and i muz say, vin diesel has a to-die-for BODY! he was HOT, real hot but too hot for me. hanny's kinda guy, she claimed. haha...but too muscular for me man, kinda freaks me out. reminds me of mr low. hah..dearie will know wat i mean.=P

was meddling wif my phone. wanted to send this pic using infra-red to my com but can't..so using my hp, i sent it to my email. and there u have it, now it's on my com and i've sent it to dearie. i demand it to be made as the wallpaper for his hp and lappie!

misfit

ain't sure if this is the correct title for this post..but i am juz feeling kinda down..after 3 years in hall, all of a sudden, i dun feel belonged or 'fitting' into the hall culture, communal living or watever u called it. feeling cynial about the things that are happening around..frenz, ethics, morals, culture..maybe it's juz one of those lardball tantrums again :(

if there's anything good which happened during this weekend, it has gotta be spending that few hours wif dearie at his place. he went drinking wif his bi frenz on fri nite..and boy, he was in a bad state when i saw him. rushed down to his place after tuition and bought him a foldover. he finally woke up at 4 and was starving and had puked umpteen times. ever since he got home around 8, he had been visiting the toilet every 2 hours to get the toxins out of his body. hah! he definitely needs to train up his liqour level!

we spent the next 2 hours talking...me surfing the net and he tossing on the bed..trying to make himsel feel better after that toxin attack. after that, we watched miss spore universe wif his parents. shall keep my comments about the contestants to myself. afterall, the last time something similar but smaller scale happened to me, it was a diaster. so on wat grounds am i to criticize them?

when the show ended, it was my turn to warm the bed and baby was both msning his frenz and sorting out his work. i love to talk to him in this manner..it's juz so comfortable..me lying on the bed ranting on and on about the happenings of the week and him doing his stuff on the table. he doesn't have to respond to everything that i said..but the sheer presence of him and knowing that he is listening to me is enuff. i guess sometimes, we juz need a listening ear. and to know when to speak or when not to speak is a form of art to be learnt.

we took a cab to this 24 hours kopitiam around my place for supper. he was still feeling hungry after having a foldover and his big mac dinner. as quoted from him, "i am a growing man" heh heh..we walked home and saw something really weird under my block. around 50 metres upon reaching my block, we saw this boy dressed in green shirt and shorts walking around under my block. but when we reached the lift, there was no sight of him. it was really wierd as it was 12.30 in the morning and wat on earth is he doing? me thought it was one of those sightings..and was kinda worried for baby. fortunately, he smsed me around 1am, "i'm home. and you know the boy whom we saw juz now? he was spraying insecticide on the cockroaches!' that really amused me but thank goodness, it was not wat i thought. haha..
