I don't want to do lab report!

But I don't have a choice, deadline's coming tuesday. Two lab reports! We used to have two weeks for one lab report, now it's the other way around-.- So now yixin and I are in the library, me obviously not doing what I should do and him reading his 三国演义. I think all my questions about 三国 made him interested in it again. I don't understand how he manages to remember all the facts though, like who killed who and who helped who. I think it's very difficult to memorise the names of ancient chinese, but that's what I have to do now! :(

Hello blog

It's been 2010 for some time already yet this is the first post since the start of the year. I've been really busy! It was for impre(dance competition but we didn't make it to second round..:( ) back then, now its for JDC(dance performance) which means dance on thursday friday and saturday. Tuition resumes too! In conclusion I have monday tuesday wednesday sunday nights free. Not even much time to watch my beloved 终极三国. On a sidenote I did finish watching 终极一家 finally haha. So i did complete something during the holidays!

Last post I mentioned going to msia. It was definitely an eye-opener as I haven't been there for a very long time. We mainly stayed around KL and visited pretty shopping centres all done up with christmas decorations. Singapore shopping centres don't seem to spend much effort on such festive decorations...*thinking of the little jukebox-like thingy at the entrance of lot 1 which they re-used for new year*. I saw mainly chinese people and almost forgot I was in msia. They have a lot of land there, a 1 hr drive is the norm to get to 'near' places. And they drive at 120km/hr around there brr. What was most memorable was getting to eat crabs(!) like throughout the 3 days there, and having my tummy fully filled 24/7. I was food-phobic for a few days after that haha. It was great to spend some time with yixin and his family, and this trip kinda cured my phobia of going into msia. Sure look forward to visiting sunway lagoon next time!

So it's been almost 2 weeks since school started. We started on a tcm module, which is basically a language class to learn ancient chinese. It so reminds me of my chinese literature classes back in hci. All the 左传 and 史记 stuff are so interesting to learn about, and I finally can understand yixin's fascination with the ancients. But I wish they didn't have to 随随便便自杀死掉. Haha. I've had 2 korean classes already, and I'm loving it:) I hope someday I'll be able to watch korean dramas without subtitles!

Today our school had some back-to-school thingy going on and we could wear our school uniform to school. I sure missed my uniform! Wearing it brought back a lot of memories from jc times, and it suddenly didn't feel so much like a dream anymore. After lessons we hopped on the buses to the BODY WORLD EXHIBITION :):) kindly sponsored by the school. I wish I could have spent more time there though. I didn't have the luxury to read the descriptions in detail.

Okay homework time.

Merry Christmas! :)

I recently took to dressing up and putting on makeup when meeting yixin, 'cause he's been complaining why I wear nicely to meet others but not him. Haha. I just wanted to match his fashion sense. So I tried to make myself a little more appealing. I'm still not very good at makeup so I got my eyes all red and wet.

Hmm yea maybe I should listen to my mum's and sharon's advice and get my eyebrows trimmed. And of course yixin was very pleased and we took some pretty neos!

Causeway point was very crowded; it was Christmas eve. We had dinner at Ichiban (I so love salmon sashimi!) and somehow reached home quite late. Then Christmas came and we went to watch 刺陵 at 1130 at vivo. Weird timing 'cause it was sneaks! I was totally blown away when Jay appeared, I think he acted great! It's like he crafted his character to suit him, not the usual other way round. Though I think it's a pity the plot wasn't developed more in depth. There could have been a little more explanation.

Lunch was at some 3 in 1 japanese restaurant, we took some photos there.



Luckily I decided not to go to Sentosa after all, there was a imba heavy downpour in the afternoon. That should be the reason why vivo was exceptionally crowded at the restaurants. We spent the later part of the afternoon in the arcade, mostly playing basketball. I was kinda pissed at yixin for missing so many balls so I challenged him to a PK. I really thought he wouldn't make it past first round. But he actually ended up doing a little better than me. Ego wounded. I attempted the dance game too! But it was so irritating, the machine didn't seem to detect my moves and recorded them all as 'missed'. The toy-catching machine was a hot favourite; families hoggged the machine and I saw people hugging their catch everywhere. That tempted me a lot, but I was never able to catch anything from the arcade. I gave up after 2 tries-.-

I'm going to m'sia tomorrow early in the morning. Feel really bad for missing the dance practice at such a critical moment, but I'm gonna put the X MINI II he got me for christmas to good use! I'm gonna practise hard in m'sia! :) I'm breaking dishes~ah ha~

Always spending his money!

I do feel quite bad that I spend so much of his money. I did promise that I would only eat expensive food once a week! But that boy keeps tempting me saying that it's fine. So...we ended up eating at sakae yesterday. I so love the salmon and chawanmushi there!

It was class gathering yesterday too, but dance ended quite late and people had to leave early. We completed quite a bit of choreography! 50% more to go, I hope we can get it done soon. Choreography sure isn't easy, there's suddenly a lot of details to pay attention to. Like the feel of the music, the strong beats, the silent beats...as well as other instruments that weave in and out throughout the music. Plus I'm going to m'sia with yixin and his family (a bit awkward! but shall take the chance to take nice photos :) )...i hope i can catch up after that. I don't even know why I actually agreed to go with him, but seeing him so excited about us going together...i don't have the heart to disappoint him. Haha. He's just so boyboy that I feel like I have to take care of him properly.

I had a mahjong session at wilson's place today! I haven't played since MJ chalet, missed it loads. It was relatively expletive-less compared to those sessions at yunhao's place. Haha. Guys.

Nice dinner :)

Today yixin came to have dinner with me, so I decided to 敲诈 him and have NYNY. He had dory in foil, and I had mega ribs that were super nice! It was the first time we both didn't feel extremely full after the main course, so we had fried mars bars for dessert. Yum! I haven't had good food for some time already. I should have taken some photos of the food.

Now that I'm using my LG phone again I must take more pretty photos. Oh and I just switched my hair parting. It seems nobody noticed-.-

The waiter offered to help us take a photo! :)

Earlier in the day I got out my dusty keyboard and tried my best to tape the switch properly so that it'll work. Then I learnt how to play "Silent Night" on it! My very first song, complete with chords and melody. Next time I'll record it and put it on here. Haha.

Next to you

I have no idea why I'm not sleeping at this hour. This just reminds me of the song "Next to you"..

2 o'clock and I wish that I was sleeping~

Haha. My muscles have been aching like mad lately 'cause of dance camp and practices these few days. I haven't experienced this kinda muscle fatigue for very long already. It actually feels good! Knowing that I did exercise someway somehow. Today's oschool recital was very inspiring. Especially now that we're trying to come out with our own choreo, I can better appreciate the use of certain music and certain actions at certain timings. Haha.

I feel tired now! Can go to sleep already yayy.

减肥大作战!


In an attempt to lose some exam weight(I typically gain weight during exams, because all I ever do during that period is eat and sit down and sleep. Using brain juice doesn't seem to use up any of my energy storage), I went with yixin to run yesterday evening at the park opposite my home.

Being the highly unfit me, who barely passed napfa 2.4km back in J2(I actually failed it. But it was borderline! The teacher made me run another round and let me pass), I only managed to run short distances and walked most of the time. But hey, they say brisk walk is useful for burning calories. I hope my speed is considered brisk! I saw a primary school friend(Ruihe) happily running back and forth the entire length of the park. I so admire fit people.

As for yixin, he hasn't trained for a long time already, but he still could run considerably faster than me. It must be the gender difference, I'm sure I don't run THAT slow..*secretly agrees*. Anyway, we only managed to go around the park once then went to sunshine place for minced meat noodles. I wanted to have salad, but strangly enough I couldn't find a ready-made one anywhere. Oh well. I remember the noodles was my favourite during our JC days. Everytime we went there after school I would order the minced meat noodles. Somehow the meepok doesn't reek of the yellow noodle smell. Love it!

Tomorrow's my last paper, I hope it can end it all with a happy ending!
