Vietnamese Cuisine

      Sedup~! Despite having flu for the past few days causing me to lose my appetite in food, i enjoyed my dinner yesterday night. It was my 'papa' Tony's Birthday celebration. A group of us, namely Kyu Kyu, CaiLei, James & me were treated with a variety of Vietnamese food. The food was pretty tasty... Especially the salad... The sauce tasted just right. Not too sour... not too sweet... nice... so do other food like lamb, chicken etc.

      Food is one thing, the company of them was important too, isn't it? We had a good time chit-chatting. Enjoying the food. And photo-taking~!!! I even get to smoke a cigarette. The first cigarette of my life... Oops... don't tell my parents. *laugh* Alright... alright... i simply posed with that cigarette that i hold for Tony. I'm a good boy, aiight? Will pose some of the suave photos when i grab hold of them. One of the picture was commented that i look a little bit handsome... just that tiny winy bit.

      After that, was our KTV session @marina square. One of the few times i actually get to sing English songs, since some of us are non-Chinese. Tony and Kyu left earlier... Leaving the Team A to sing awhile more. Its been a long time since i enjoy so much... my first time going out with Kyu & Tony... i will definitely miss Kyu after she leaving. Oh ya, i will be replacing her position.

      Right now, i feel so tired... that's after a swim in a pool. Strange... i felt rather weak and 'light. I couldn't really swim in a straight line, never happened before and felt my body was light when i alighted from the bus... haha. guess i'm too tired and weak... haha...

American Idol 7

David Archuleta... David Cook... David Hernandez... All these names are so foreign to me... before i started to tune in to this week show. Haymar had been promoting her Mr David Cook, citing that he is cute... "Guys with talent are cute". While Huang Xin is trying hard making me believe that AI7 is actually having great talents... He even discuss with Thinyu...
      I watched one episode or half an episode via the ppstream. It wasn't impressive at all. Hence, i had a hard time accepting his views... but after being tempted and give AI7 one last chance on TV, i am impressed now. Maybe its Mariah Carey's songs that do wonders... its Mariah Carey's week, by the way.... Most contestants do impress me... but i would say, i only fall for two performance... that was the two Davids that was remaining... David Cook & David Archuleta...

David Hernandez was voted off during the Top 12... Hence, didn't catch his performance on TV. But saw his performance online in Top 12. He made news after revealing that he posed nude before and his photos was seen online. Anyway, The other Davids did Mariah proud. David Cook's rendition of 'Always Be My Baby' was unique and sounded so original that i almost found Mariah Carey's version was merely so-so. David Archuleta's 'Hero' touched the hearts of million of viewers. You can definitely hear his sincerity through the way he interpreted the song. It was also pretty original. But the former one is more unique. Both receive my 'wow' & salutes...

I went on to listen to David A.'s previous week performance, 'Angel'. That was simply awesome. Go catch their performance in youtube.com or download from their fansite. I did download some too... haha... now i guess i am back an AI fan after skipping season 4,5 due to army commitment & season 6 due to lack of interest.



David Archuleta
David Cook
Sidetrack a little from AI7, i have decided to stay in engineering line, not electronics line though. Its was a rather easy decision. I made it in a day time. I also will not be quiting my current job, but will be changing to normal shift. Job scope will differ slightly but more adaptable than if i job-hop. My supervisor also agree to give me flexibility working hours for studies... That is leaving slightly early for school or taking leaves in preparation for exams. But money wise... it will be a huge drop compared to my salary now. Its ok, i just need to spend a lot lesser. Lesser entertainment for me, i guess... Hope there is an increment this year. A huge one.
      Am i really sound like a PRC? haha... though that's a complement. I was mistaken as a PRC once again. This time round by a Singaporean. Previously, i have people from different department or nationality, thinking that i am from China. When i asked why do they think so, they say when i speak the language, there is an accent in it. Hmm... slightly different from Singaporeans' way of speaking. But was commented that i look older now than i first joined the company. Looking forward to a month rest in July or August. Taking leave to rejuvenate myself. Do what i wanted to do~!!!

Last but not least, a shout out to those still have doubts in my nationality and name... i am a TYPICAL SINGAPOREAN with the name of WEI(3) LIANG(4) & not WEI(3) LIANG(2) or WILLIAM~!!! hahaha

十字路口

人往往要到十字路口时,就需要做出明确的选择

我在这几天也被迫做出一个将影像我人生的抉择。在钱财与兴趣,未知的未来与稳健 的事业,我必须做个决定。一方面关系到我理想与热诚,另一方面关系到前途和事 业。我也不是很年轻了。这将是我做出事业方向的最后机会。留在我拥有两年经验 的Engineering课系,还是往F&B行列,从零开始。

一直都认为我不会被本地大学NUS录取,所以开始策划我的未来,B计划。但没想到, 却失算。对,我侥幸被接受了。NTU还没回复,NUS先抢先一步录取我为他们的学生。 不是FT,而是PT 的。这使到我必须想一想我是否应该继续我现在的行业。还是往一 个必须花多五年才能在社会踏上第一步。

这次的抉择将牵涉到两位朋友。但庆信的是,两位都没给我太大的压力让我自己做出 明确的选择。问了友人的意见后,我想我也做出了决定。我将留在ENGINEERING,但 不排除往后将回到我的理想。

我将在ENGINEERING里,努力赚一笔能实现我愿望的金钱。一笔乐观的积蓄才能让我 实现我这个长久以来的梦想。开店不许文凭,打工却没办法避免。我也只好任命了。 我会加油...我会努力...
