a "Pool" Experience

Yup yup...i v sua ku cos now then try my hands on playing pool..it's owl's suggestion tat we went in n play..it's at JEC K-Pool..i dun hav a good impression of playing pool cos it's kinda complicated inside..well it's really horrible at the start..so embarrassing lo..cant even differentiate which pole is for billards or pool..haiz anw we chose the small table to play..our bodies all so short anw haha..Actually all played b4 except me..owl, dog are the pro-er ones..i dun even know how to stable the pole..then hit air la..or the ball juz moved a few inches haha..

I think in tat room..we were the lousiest group yet noisiest haha..cos all giggling away whether hit the ball or not..even shrieked so loud when the white ball went in (which i did alot of times *cough*)..we split into 2 groups and play..anw i think the striped balls were cursed cos which ever group used kena striped balls sure lose..yup in the end we, the lousier team won by 2 balls cos we got the solid balls haha..

Ok..some funny things tat happened( or it's v common for amateurs haha)..we hit alot of air balls, or hit the wrong ball, "jumped" ball too haha..anw another table ppl more zai..their white ball flew onto our table n went in!! It's a group of Indians..i tell u..they all laughing like crazy lo..tat person who scored was damn paiseh haha...bumped backsides w other table ppl too..

Anw i got better esp in the last game..so much better lo..scored quite a few leh..i think i like suddenly "kai qiao" /gotten the hang of the game..phew so not a bad experience after all..quite like e game alr haha...but anw this kind of place better get more company..cos u nv know...

Talk about complexity....

this is the most complex chinese character..consisting of 64 strokes..it means verbose, which is a formal to say using or containing too many words..
the pronunication is zhe2, it has fallen from use since the 5th century

i am more interested in this character as this may be e most complex character still in use now..it is pronounced as biang2. biang biang noodles is a type of noodles found in shanxi province..

Go calculate how many strokes it has..(hint:less than 64 haha)

cool sia..interested ppl can go wikipedia to see..

a Day of Indulgence

Today under the request of teo huifang tat we gathered to meet up after her papers..actually only me, huilian, huifang n nat (sorry fabian couldn't make it, i hope u feel better after looking at the photos!) We decided to meet at NJ bus stop..everyone was late haha..only see who is later..we couldn't resist the urge to go back nj..well since the guard din stop us ( another slacker) we went right in..it's great to see school bustling w activities..mr tong playing basketball..ppl playing soccer n basketball players training w weights on the track..it juz brings me back to the days which i used to train for badminton..i was like running every other day..now stamina dropped like crazy..hate to say but i do miss the track haha..

So we went in walk ard..canteen, oasis, art block and out by the main gate(found the security sleeping away hehe)..we talked to the canteen auntie which nat sweet-talked the auntie until she wanna treat us drinks haha..(met fred btw..another nj lover haha), there are a lot more new tables at the linkway..brighter colours (hf was commenting all these improvements were done using the money we collected bleahz)..they were saying the new nj tee was v nice n wanna buy..but i more interested in the hse tee..feel like buying all 6 colours haha..

After tat we went to the shops behind nj..during our 2 yrs in nj..we nv really did explore the place (excluding the times where we had to run for our annual road run)..quite a few restaurants but apparently v exp..the choco cake at Lana cakeshop seems v nice but they dun sell slices so we din get to eat..we went to the ice cream shop n bought 2 ice-creams 4 flavours to share..it's not bad..$3.20 for a small cup..haha taste like venezia to me..since the place too exp n we all quite broke..we decided to go holland V by cab to eat..

We shared xiao long bao at the food court n i ate la mian..after sending huilian off..we went to essential brew where we sat till 9 plus to chat n juz enjoying the atmosphere..it's a really nice place where u can juz sit down n relax..the corridor was so quiet but the place was really v crowded upstairs..we ate the rainbow indulgence and hot choco..today is more on relationship talk..really feels good to hav a place for a heart to heart talk..overall..a good day to de-stress n forget about work..

so good luck to all the uni ppl who gonna start sch again this wk or the nxt..and hf enjoying her long break w/o good friends like us haha..

眼泪

眼泪, 是我从小无法征服的敌人

眼泪,总是在我感情泛滥时哗啦啦流下来

事情不如意,自尊心强的我,会强忍眼泪躲在小角落哭泣
在被窝里哭着入睡也常常伴随我许多伤心的夜晚。。。

越亲近的人的责备越会引起热泪满眶。。。

没用的眼泪。。。暴露我的软弱,揭开我的多愁善感。。

但,热热得眼泪是最好的发泄,烦恼与紧绷的心情顿时解开。。。哭得好畅快

我想,我还是喜欢眼泪的。。。

今晚适合大哭一场~~

Congratulations, haha!
Your IQ score is 115

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Visual Mathematician. This means you are gifted at spotting patterns — both in pictures and in numbers. These talents combined with your overall high intelligence make you good at understanding the big picture, which is why people trust your instincts and turn to you for direction — especially in the workplace.

Money Earning cum Artistic Wk

Today is thurs day..gonna finish my work at the Ghost House (Chinese Heritage Ctr)..completed my 10hrs for the wk..the whole of this wk i hav been going home early cos partly ponning some boring lectures, but most imptly not to wait 3hrs in between..especially i hav to go esplanade everyday this wk, to watch plays and to do surveys at the huayi festival...somehow days passed v fast and i feel kinda tired tho going home early..this wk has been fun as first time catching so much plays (which i wun go in the first place if not for the module) in such a short time..it has been an eye-opener for me..first time using my brain to remember tiny details of the play (which i obediently took notes too) and to analyse the techniques n inner thinkings of the play..no wonder so tired haha..

Up till now i have watched Outcast General, Cloud Gate and Long House, and coming up the rest of the wk will be Objects for meditation, Jin dapan's Last Night and Mahjong Eclipse. Gonna be such a artistic wk for me..going esplanade is alr such a cultural thingy for me hehe..but anyway i really enjoyed the evening breeze while i was there..especially running outside venues to do survey..i can watch the fabulous performances like puppet calligraphy, cantopop (but diff band yest so not tat great anymore) and chinese rock music..oh ya and i love the harp w flute at the concourse too..the combination is simply beautiful..i always cant help swaying to the music..i think my group members sure think i am a kuku hehe...

Well of cos the best part of this whole wk is extra income for me..muz thank my course mates for giving me face n did surveys for me..i hav earned quite a bit within the 3days which i am on duty..left 2 more surveys to do on fri..i juz cant wait for the money to come in at the end of the month..cos on the 16th (nxt wk) my sch fees are going to be deducted again!! gonna be a sum of 600+ lo..not even my pay this wk can cover the difference..boohoo...

But anyway i will go on saving abit until i can put back the diff and maintain my ideal figure ( as in bank not me)..tat is after i hav satisfied my cravings for haagen dazs fondue!! a little valentine's day treat ba hehe...arghh...lunch time le..hungry...
