Life's gonna be tough~ I've been nailed at home for the past few weeks =/ I'm not doing well financially and needa stay at home for my rainy days. Need to eat Air for this period of time. Fortunately, there's TV programs accompanying me throughout till I can't stop watching TV now. =P I've been following encored dramas and some variety shows. Now, I think I can tell u whats on TV everyday. Actually, I should be studying my HI instead but I really hated myself for my slackness. I can't seem to absorb anything in the library. I feel like I'm wasting my life at home everyday. Sigh ~
Recently, I've been thinking a lot at home. Thinking about human relations. I just don't understand some of the incidents tt happened to me. I really dunno how to express some of the things in my mind now. I find there's very limited people around me. Maybe I'm not an interesting person thats why i doesn't attract much friends to me? How can things be improved? I'm kind of helpless and I really don't know how.
But, I'm really glad that there's still friends that I can gave a rang and talk to. And there's people that make me feel my existence to them. There's still people willing to give me a helping hand during difficult times. I dunno how to put in words that overflowing thankfulness to u guys but I just wanna let you all know that I cherish every single one of u alot alot. I'm here because I have all of u. =)

Today, I received and retrieved something. I shall talk abt what i've retrieved first.
Finally, I went back SP and retrieved my long lost Diploma! Omg.. I graduated in 2007 and it has alrdy been 2years. I got my diploma 2years after graduation! What a terrible person I m? Right? haha..
Just a pity that I didn't have a proper graduation together with my peers and didn't have a chance to put on the robe. How I wish I've a chance to wear the robe, go on stage and receive the scroll with my parents witnessing it. It could nv happen again so I can just dream about it. Haha..Nvm its over, so I should look forward!=)
As I approach the counter staff for my diploma, I encountered a tough question, "How long ago was your graduation?". I took about 10secs to response to her question because I totally forgot which year I graduated and lost count of the years I've left sch. Fortunately, they didn't burn the cert. and kept it there nicely for me even after years. I think they'll burn away my cert if they find out my negligence towards it. So.. Shhh.. =x
Today, I received my name card as well. Freshly printed name card for my upcoming career. I'm so proud of everything that i've gotten today.
I WANT BACK MY PINK IC as well! It has been missing for 2years! And I'M MISSING IT BADLY.. 25 Days left~~ Woo~

Went to the National Library with intention of doing revision for M9 and also to try my luck again.. hehe As usual, the place was packed and I can't find any seats. Take note, if u wanna guarantee yourself a seat, come to the library between 12pm - 1pm or even earlier. The only time I manage to find myself a seat was my first time studying here and also the day tt I meet her.
Sad to say, it was again another disappointment. Probably, this is god's reminder to me that once you miss it, it'll be gone forever. Will I still see her again?? Hmm? I think its time to let go of all those fat hopes I had since its alrdy the 3rd attempt.
Though its kind of awful, I still feel i should face whats in my mind =)
I should let things flow naturally and who knows I may see her somewhere else other than the library? Haha.. See I've got another fatter hope out of tt fat of hopes I had. I should quit this and forget about it from now onwards. Sigh~

Firstly, I'll start off with the pict that I've promised. My New Pedro Shoe!
05/08/09(Wed) Last burst for my paper tml. As usual, I went to Queenstown library to mug. The library is a bit more filled up as compared to the past few times. I dunno y I've cravings for Oreo cheesecake suddenly, so I went to try the cheese cake at the cafe in the library. It wasn't as nice as expected but it still satisfy my cravings. =) I'm smarter this time round not to focus that much on the textbook, but put more attention to the "TYS" qns. I wasn't able to finish all the questions b4 the library close. So, I studied till like 2-3am at home.
06/08/09(Thu) My effort & money didn't go into waste this time. I PASSED!!! I guess I wasn't studying smart the previous time. Now I know, I shall pay more attention to the Tys qns while studying for my next 2 papers. I felt so delighted when I see the certificate because there wun be anymore M5 Test! Yes! 1 down and 2 more to go...
After the test, I went for a bit of shopping and I bought a t-shirt at vol.ta. Omg.. the apparels in the shop is so nice lah! I wish I could get a piece of everything inside! haha.. Anyway, I saw a shirt inside that I'm so gonna get it 1 day. Will get it if my wallet allows.
Regarding my camera, I've decided to bring my battery charger to the Sony outlet in Suntec for a test since I'm there and I've time. Result was that there's problem with the main body of my charger. At first, I was wondering how that sales girl made my charger works which it didn't ever work under me even after million tries at home. Then, I notice there's actually a cache to let it. So, there's actually not much of an issue to it if you know the cache in between. There after, I went home and washed up.
Later, I went to meet my uncle in his office and talked abt some plannings on my career. I got a series of events laid out for the next 2 months. Gosh~ I guess I'm going to fight endlessly for quite some time before I can take a seat back and relax.
ORD Function! Uncle Patrick was very nice that he fetched me to the ORD function place 'Corpthone King's Hotel'. The place is like so ULU that I dun think many ppl knows how to go there. Lucky I've free ride there though I was late. OKay, I'm smart to be late cos the function only starts at 7.30pm and they ask everyone to be there at 6.30pm. -.-
Before the start of the event, everybody was busy taking photos and chatting around and we have a few pro photographers around. The event was a bit dull as there's like not much events line-up for it. The event host is like trying her best to come out with ideas to keep everyone occupied. But, she's on the wrong frequency for army guys like us.
C4! Though it looks like me with my fanclub =P
Oh..The host will randomly ask ppl to go up on stage and do funny stuff. That create chances for sabotaging and I was 1 of the victim. -.-
I was engage in some modeling session and I was damn "lucky" to have RSM as my designer for tt toilet rolls outfit ~.~
This is a nice pict taken by Ivan with his ultra sharp camera.
A dish that my Man set aside for me when I was on stage. How "warming" was that~~
The food was kind of limited but is good enough for the price of $60/ppl. We shouldn't be expecting much.
Towards the middle of the event, a hot girls dance was brought up to arouse everyone. All the hungry ghosts were expecting some excitement from it, but it turned out to be kind of boring. When the host said there's gonna be a 2nd round of dance, we were like "Wth??". However, the 2nd round was quite entertaining as there were a few peeps been brought up on stage and dance with the girls and it really added some entertaining values to the performance. It was Hilarious! hahaha..
I think everybody was actually waiting for the last part of the lucky draw. The top price is a 32 Inch Akira LCD TV. Although its Akira, still better than nothing rite.. In the end, the grand price landed on Charlton's hand. Congratulations Charlton!
Me, Tim(A nice and friendly armskote man) & Chalks(Friendly CQ) All thanks to chalks for the blurry effects..
Me with CEDI
Big Boss(OC), CSM, Me and CEDI
After end of the function, I went out and took a few photos with various ppl. Mainly, the CEDI dudes. It was about 11+ when I reach home.
07/08/09(Fri) In the morning, I woke up early for my HI lesson. I realise that I was too early when I reach company. Omg..I remembered the timing wrongly. The room wasn't open when I reach there as it was still early, so I went down to consume my breakfast.
Actually, I was extremely tired because I only slept 4hrs. I was quite troubled the night before and chatted with my friend till quite late. With that insufficient rest, I know I definitely can't stand a full day lesson. Therefore, I made a white lie to escape the 2nd half of the class. Hope I wun go to hell because of that.
In the afternoon, I went back to the national library and try my luck again. I really hope that she'll be there. Yet, it was another disappointment. The library was totally packed with ppl and I tried scanning for her among the ppl in that room but couldn't see her anywhere. Actually, I tot I saw her at the side with a laptop but that was just a girl that look like her. Anyway, the last thing I did the night before was drawing a illustration of her. My memory of her that day. I really hope I'm able to meet her again.
Its quite a pity that till now I still couldn't master the art of drawing eyes of ppl.
08/08/09(Sat) Slack my day through at home with nothing much to talk about. Heh..
09/08/09(Sun)
Its National Day!
Its National Day and Singapore is 44 years old! On this special day of the nation, I spent my day at Vincent's place with the tiles. Its a whole day Mahjong session with Vincent, Jeff and their respective gf. However, I felt my mahjong improved this time round. More spectacular cards and no lost for me. Hahaha..

Omg.. I dunno what happened to this stupid Blogger.com. I can't post any pictures or videos now! Anyway, I'm going for my M5 exam again this Thurs. I REALLY hope I can clear it this time cos my wallet is alrdy burning in pain. =/
Woo.. I've just cleared my combat shoot 2 ytd and I don't owe anything now! I think I was close to getting marksman. My whole detail did well and I was actually burdening them. I had the lowest score for both day and night. From the scores, I think I'm 1 mark away from my $200! What a Waste! Everyone were feeling extremely frustrated ytd due to delays here and there. All of us wanted it to end early but shit always happens. We only touched camp at abt 4.30am. I'm pity for those who din even get to finish their shoot and some even got their results voided. I'm greatful to have mine cleared.
My camera is down for nearly a month and I still can't find time to get it fixed. It actually my charger thats down. My battery is totally flat now and it can't be charged. I dunno whether is the wire of the charger or the main body of the charger spoilt. So, I need to troubleshoot first but I've No Time at all! Hope is just the wire problem.
I've just collected my new Pedro shoe from Anchor Point. Its perfectly Chio to me but a pity that I can't post up the picture of it as my cam's down. Will post it up once I can. =)
Anyway, I found this interesting video and wanna share it with u guys. Haha..盧廣仲 is so funny! He's always promoting his breakfast, I think he'll die if he misses it.

26/07/09(Sun) What a good weekend for me to fall sick.. I was ill and suffered from some digestion disorder and nearly had fever. I believe its caused by the 10 prawns that I had the previous day. High Cholesterol!! I went to NUH at night for consultation and got medications back that ease my discomfort. I got MC for 2days as well.
I do have to bring more attention to my health already. I feels that my stomach is getting weaker and weaker these days. Haiz.. Old Le...
27/07/09(Mon) Suppose to have my Combat Shoot 2 but I rested at home. I'll be schedule for the shoot another day. Sianz..
28/07/09(Tues) I went back to camp for some work and on off after that. So, I meet up with See Zhong for lunch in the aftnoon at Jurong Point. We settled our lunch at Swensens. Finally, we get to enjoy the 1 for 1 promotion! Actually, this is the 2nd time for me =p
We walked around and there's an incident that make me damn paiseh.. Unknowingly, I went into a samsung handphone distributor shop and asked the Sales person whether they have any with DLNA(Wireless) function? I believe there's question mark floating on her mind and she mentioned "Wireless handphone we have.. blah blah blah..". Then, I said I'm looking for TV. She smiled and said they don't have TV. I was puzzled cos I tot they were the Samsung distributor. After that, I realise what shop is that and I quickly evacuate from there. The layout of the shop is so mis-leading! I think anyone that step in without seeing the shop name will tot the same as me.. We were LOL after I tell SZ abt it and he agreed with me tt the shop was mis-leading.
After that, I went to my aunt's place for a facial session. It has been more than half a year since I last did facial. Definitely, my tolerance level went down and had a tough battle with the pain. =/
29/07/09(Wed) Its a well planned day for studying my M5 exam. I just don't understand that why I'm so shag. I woke up at 12+ and had my lunch. I was struggling whether I should go study anot because I'm feeling real tired and sleepy. I can't help it and laid back onto my bed and there goes my afternoon. I say hello to the world again at 6+ in the evening. Failure to my plan. Nvm.. Try again the next day!
30/07/09(Thu) Today, I felt very fresh. Maybe, its because of the superior rest the previous day. I went to queenstown library and thats a nice place with not much people! Fortunately, its not exam season now. Its nv easy to study again after you do your NS. There's like a piece of filtering plate on ur brain that blocks the informations from entering. I realised that I can't hold it there for long and I went off for my 'Chocolate Banana' cake at Secret Recipe at Anchor Point.
I ended up purchasing my new working shoes at Pedro as the model that I like left with the last pair of my size. Moreover, they have 10% discount on it =) I deposited the shoes there and going back to collect it next week as its kind of inconvenient to bring it with me. Thereafter, I went back to the library to continue. I realised that I've an urge for dinner..So, I went over to the famous chicken rice store there and settled my dinner.
Then, I studied at the library till it closes. Not a bad day but too slow on my progress.. Jiayou!
31/07/09(Fri) Today is my Exam Day! =/ I've decided to go to the Bugis National Library for today's mugging session as its near to the exam venue. There's a lot more people as compare to Queenstown. I can berely find a seat. However, I still managed to find this decent corner seat at 1 of the front table. After settling down, I found out that I've forgotten to bring my pencil case out. Omg! So I went over to Bras Basah and purchased a pencil. I'll die without it.
Same like ytd, I've some problems absorbing the info that I studied. I spent too much time on a chapter. I kind of lost my concentration at times and look at the girl sitting opposite of me. =p
She was there before me and she seems to be doing some daily revision or preparing for a test. Her notes were all over her desk. She took out her story book to read when she's sick of her pile of notes. I was trying to peep on the cover of her book, but can't really see what she's reading. I guess she's student from SMU? I saw business related topics on her notes. There's this 'Withdrawal Tax' on her notes, so I guess that must be some banking related stuff? Certainly, I saw a logo that look like SMU. Upon her pencil case, I saw this very classic ruler. It reminds me of the rulers that I've seen when I was in primary sch. There's simple and decent pictures on it. She doesn't seem like a luxurious person but I find her fashionable when she took off her hoodie. The "Singlet dress" that she's wearing looks unique. She left her desk quite afew times and took damn long on the last time she left. I dunno where she went.
Overall, she has left me quite a pleasant impression so I tot it would be nice if i could know her? So i prepared a note and intended to slot it into her calculator. I took her calculator over, took off the cover and I saw a neoprint inside. There's 2 girls on the picture and I guess that might be her and her sis or friend. Oh noo..The calculator is too squeezy for my note! So, I covered it back and just when I was placing it back, she came back! I was kind of caught red handed =P
I was damn Paiseh la! I covered myself with my hand and pretend to be concentrating on my book act as if nothing had happened. I think she must be thinking that I'm either a pervert or some poor shit thats trying to steal her calculator. She left the library abt 5mins later. I regretted not going up to her and explain. I Really Hope I'll get to see her again?
Thereafter, I went down to Suntec for my exams. I thought I would be okay but I'm Not! A lot of questions I studied din come out! In the end, I failed.. =/ There goes my money and effort. I was discouraged and disappointed. =(( DUN DIE AND GET UP! I'll try again the following week and I must pass! Hope I can get marksman for my CS2 to replenish the money I lost from the exam.
01/08/09(Sat) I went back to the library the following day at the same time and wanted to try my luck. Today, the library was much more crowded. There's some heritage program going on. I went up to the same place that I studied ytd and there's totally no seats. I went back to the same seats ytd and both mine and her seat are occupied. More importantly, She wasn't there. I went for my lunch and wanted to go back to the library after that. It was another round of disappointment after going back, I can't find any seats and she wasn't there too.
Meet up with vincent after leaving the library and we explored all the new shopping centres tt were opened recently. Namely, ION, Orchard Central and Iluma. They were still quite empty inside. I guess they just need more time.
