surprise surprise

I would like to take this opportunity to thank people who supported me over the past few weeks when i am having a tough time studying. Emotionally, they are there whenever i needed them without wanting anything in return. Thanks all who wished me via facebook or face-to-face. Special thanks to my-little-cousin-always Adrielle. Ermei & buddy, Dingze for being there for me, treating me meals at times etc =) Thanks alot.

On Sunday, after the tiring run, i met up with a group of friends for KTV celebrating Edwin's birthday. We bought a cake for him and treat him the KTV since we do not know what to get for him. To my surprise, they celebrate my birthday too! I received my first ever birthday gift in 2010! haha! Yes, caught in surprise... who will buy a cake for himself? Haha, actually, Edwin shared the cake with me for the celebration, the cake was not meant for me! We enjoyed our time & happy enough that we enjoyed our time. The zhi char doesn't taste good but we enjoyed each other company.

Thanks to Edwin for choosin the gift and Ashton (did not come), Jq & Dingze for sharing the gift! It is an awesome top & skinny jeans.... YES ! SKINNY JEANS! OMG! i will never ever get myself slim enough to squeeze into it! but hey, it definitely will serve as a motivation to me. The top fits me well but doesn't look too good on me. If only i have a better bodz. In face, i had a friend who wore this and i almost got one top looking something like that. It is unique design and not what i usually wear. Will i wear it? Maybe, when i toned up a little... or i will look too gayish!

Fun Time KTV-ing!

SCMS 2010

It had been an amazing race, really is... I may sound boastful for posting my timing everywhere but hey, to be honest, we all know the timing is not really that good. 01:15:08 for 10km? Even i could do better in Nike Human race last year. Ranked 4394? It means there are thousands of runners (both guys and girls) much faster than me!

Despite all these, i am happy with the results. Very happy indeed. I wasn't running non-stop or was i in the mood for running. A night before the run, my friend told me he is not going. When i woke up that day, i received another sms from another friend, telling me that he is not going. Thankfully, Stephanie contacted me on SAT to ask if i want to travel to the start point together. On the way there, last friend was uncontactable! (He is still sleeping!)

The run signified my health condition! My knee did not fail me, but my fitness did! I was almost out of breath during the run, having stitch and even black out (almost) when i finished the run! I was very well hydrated after the run, not before. I got to drink mineral water after the run, collect the finisher medal before getting a cereal bar & a can of 100-plus... Ermei even treat me to the free food offer by the title sponsor to their staff (Ermei's sis is working there). Hence, i got myself free lunch with 2 ice-cream! Now you know why i never slim down despite the run...

If my knee allows me... i aim to complete 3 races next year. Adidas Sundown, Nike Run & SCMS 2011! Of course, my standard can only go for 10k. In fact, I already had friends who are willing to run with me for Adidas Sundown! Hooray!

There is two vid or covers i wanted to share here. One of them is Lee Hom's song while the other one? I don't know! But who cares? As long as i like what i hear here! Enjoy! =)

完美之旅

Event: Urban Legends: the perfect journey | 完美之旅

完美之旅 | the perfect journey is a collection of original compositions (music/lyrics) by singer-songwriter Juliet Pang 冯欣慧. Music for her is a wonderful medium for a storyteller, and each song that writes her stories and those about whom she holds closely to her heart, adds a new color to her creative palette.

She would like to invite you to the launch of this full-length debut album, as she closes a long chapter of this season in ...her life, only to embark on the next adventure.

The concept and making of this album, offered opportunities for her to undertake production, arrangement independently, of which 4 of her originals had been fully arranged and recorded in her humble 'studio'. of which, 'hey you' is an intimate acoustic number written out of a loss of words for the sudden departure of many this year, many too young, too soon. she looks forward to sharing these raw bits of her with you.

Finally, this album though completely and ironically 'independent', is truly a collective effort and contribution of dear friends who have generously shared their time, amazing talents, and most importantly their hearts. they are these stories.

Album sales will take place on both the days, 15th and 16th Dec.
15th Dec Band Setup: James Yeo(bass/piano), Daniel Purnomo(guitar), Shawn Kok(percussion)
16th Dec Band Setup: Clarence Yeo and Juliet Pang (Uncanny Sounds setup)


Time: 15 December at 19:00 - 16 December at 21:00
Location: Concourse, Esplanade.For more info, visit: [click here]






The Final Battle 2010

I know i am supposed to be mugging the textbooks, especially when i have less than 48hours to use for studying. But i simply couldn't get information into my mind. It doesn't help with friends choosing the wrong time to sms you stuff that can distrub your mind. Hey people, when you guys are not studying, it doesn't mean i am not!! Not that they know i am but at least, they should know the exam period, right? =x

Currently, i am in the midst of having exam. Yesterday marked my first battle this semester. I do not think that i did well but i believe i did enough to pass overall. It is just about the grade i get and the impact that i will have on my GPA. I expect that to drop this sem. No one to blame but myself.

On Thursday, i will be having my 2nd and last exam papers. It is my weakest subject area - Statistic. Lack of interest and lack of motivation is the main reason why i am not prepared for the exam yet. Mainly due to the fact that i do not wish to take many leaves. Tomorrow, i will be heading to somewhere more suitable for me to study... away from home. Hopefully, i am fresh enough to absorb all the information like a new SPONGE!... I wanna be spongebob square pants for the next two days!

Wish me luck these days =) Thanks in advance...

Happiness in a Nutshell

When have you made the most important decisions in your life?
When you were on your knees - after disasters, after knock-backs, when you've been kicked in the head.

That's when we say to ourselves:
"I'm sick of being broke,
sick of being kicked around.
I'm tired of being mediocre.
I''m going to do something."

We learn our biggest lessons when things get rough.

3rd Anniversary

2010.11.23
This day marks the third year without you by our side physically, never have you ever leave our thoughts... our heart... Till today, i still can remember the smiles that you never fail to wear on your face... The jokes you used to tell us in our poly days... The actions you always did in front of us...
It is strange, i must admit, that i think of you whenever i am having half chicken western meal. It will reminds me the incident in Swensen's... what Jocelyn said about you and me... I will be reminded of you whenever i read news about dragonboat or hear people talk about dragonboat. I will be reminded of you when i see people doing silly expression... haha...
On 20th Nov, we went down and pay respect to the guy who had left us while donning national colours. You are still so popular even till today... Fresh flowers can be seen at your 'place'. It is a pity that a few of us were not able to come down due to work commitment or other 'auspicious clashes'. But I am sure you know your position in their heart.
Hope that you are doing well wherever you are... having fun and bring laughters everywhere =)

期待着雨后的彩虹

被雨困在泳池旁,等待雨停才能回家。与其在这里无所事事,到不如试着用手机写博克。

这一段日子,发生了许多微不足道的事。但我的心情当然会有受影响。没必要追究谁对谁错,只能说人事已非,必须调整自己的心态。

感觉已经有点累了。因学业而睡眠不足,因玩乐而睡眠不足,绝对不会为这人事物而睡不好。不,并非我无情无义,只是当你为这些事伤心,难过,甚至哭过后,铁定会疲倦,累倒。

新加坡金曲奖 2010 荣誉榜

‘分猪肉’一向来都是‘新加坡金曲奖’的现象,今年已步入第16届了,当然也不例外。不,许多得奖人,实至名归。但当所有出席的艺人歌手都能捧着奖杯回去时,难免会引起争议。‘有出席,就有奖拿’已经是事实了。最引起争议的得奖人非郑可为莫属!一个刚出道的新兵,没在合格期内发行个人专辑却能得奖,这未免太扯了吧。我想有可能明年她无法拿最佳新人,所以先给他一个不重要的奖项。何维建也在2008年的了这个奖项。当年也得了不起眼的Jean Yip最酷专辑造型奖的何维建,却在2009年空手而归。

优秀新人奖再次颁发给多位新人,奖项的重要性也大大减弱。感觉上,有名气和支持者的新人要拿这奖,并非难事。Y2J虽然临时无法出席,但早也准备一个奖给他们了。其实若不去理会奖是怎么颁发的话,典礼其实还廷有看头的。

蔡健雅的幽默言语,Auntie Lucy与蔡琴(Michelle Chong)的逗趣交谈,青峰(苏打绿)用新加坡试的中文回问Auntie Lucy, 方炯镔对Auntie Lucy 与蔡琴的不知所措的表情等, 都替这典礼增添了不少气氛!各位海外嘉宾的演出,更让人叹为观止!尤其久违的黄小虎,深情的方炯镔,以及让我惊讶的田馥甄,让我又喜又悲!特别喜欢田馥甄在她演唱‘寂寞寂寞就好’时的态度,神情,简直太棒了!
以20元购买的门票,物超所值!明年,有机会一定会再去看!
