Lalalala lalalala~ Haha... Hong Kong was great! Love the weather there man... came back and started sweating immediately. Walking ard there is nv as tiring cos u wun feel all sticky and uncomfortable all day long~ Hmm... 4 days is really too short a trip but nonetheless, absolutely enjoyable! Especially Ocean Park~ Even though it's my 3rd time there... this is the only time i tried practically all the rides!
Let me start with the first day, 20th March, hardly slpt the nite before cos had to wake up at 3+am to prepare to go to the airport... And i was too excited to slp lah~ Whole nite kept thinking of wat i've left out from my luggage =X Haha... Had like maybe 2+hrs of slp and i was off to the airport! Jet Star Asia airfares are cheap for a reason... cos they have NOTHING onboard! Haha... no newspapers, no blindfolds, no blankets, no cards, no tv screen, no nothing! Food have to buy if we wanted to eat lah, but we ate some at the airport le so not hungry. The seats are quite squeezy too... can only lean back slightly, not good enuff a position to slp. Lol... Din really slp much there lahz, somehow eyes tired but mentally very awake... By the time we got there was about 10+ le... Took a bus to my dad's apartment. Quite a long ride to managed to doze off a little on the bus. Whole of tt day was spent walking ard supposed to shop but the stuff we saw in the shopping centres are the same as sg, so no pt buying... Should've gone to the shops along the streets to look at their local brands, would've probably be cheaper. Anyways, went to Stanley Market to take a look... Nice place... will add the photos to my album soon~ Dinner was with a few of my dad's sg friends. A bunch of drinkers and smokers! Lol... well, they can be nice too lah, but u know after drinking a little too much they'll talk funny... Anyway the food was quite good... probably not cheap too... Uncle David treated~
Next day, 21st March, We went Ocean Park! Weather wasn't too good tt day, drizzled and stop every once in a while... But as long as it's not as humid as sg it's fine =P We had our warm up ride on the mine train... which was the smaller of 2 roller coasters... wat a way to start the day eh? =X Haha... But sat tt before lahz, so it was still quite alright... then we headed up to the pirates ship and abyss, which was the free fall ride, i was made to choose one lah! I was quite terrified of pirate ship after my last ride on one... but the 20 storeys free fall wasn't any better! So yeah... No better alternatives... went for the pirate ship first... Haha... End up wasn't as bad as i'd anticipated.... Then..... i thot i mite just try the free fall too... (though i rmbed saying i'd nv take tt ride!) Heh... With much encouragement from the very brave jinchao... i went to queue up =X Was super scared while waiting for my turn lah, i think i could've felt my blood drained from my face =X Haha... then before i knew it, i was 20 storeys up! "AAaaaaaahHHhHhHHHHHhhhH!" Tt's all i could say =X Hahaha... Then *whoosh!* I was all the way down! and up~ and down~ Haha...i it all happened so fast i din have time to think so it ended up not as scary as i'd thot at first... Haha... Yays! Tt's were my 2 victory rides! With much help from mr piggy =P But too bad the larger roller coaster was closed for mantainance.... But maybe it was all i could take for tt day =P The rest of the day was pretty much relaxing... Oh yeah! Hamtaro was so big and cutee! But of cos difficult to win =P Really had a great time tt day... Spent the whole day there then went for dinner with my dad and another of his friend...
Shenzhen day! 22nd March... Haha.... checked out the many many fakes... from LV to Omega... U name it, they have it! 7 storeys huge shopping mall of fake goods! Lol... Quality isn't tt bad either, din really find anything i like though, so only bought a simple pair of earrings for HKD20... Lol... I kept luffing at how they try to get me to take a look at their stores... "Hello missy, come amd lookie~" Hahahah.... damn hilarious! Bought a few nice t-shirts for my mom, and my dad bought a Armani jacket... really quite nice! HKD300... maybe 10% of the original price... but of cos, it's fake lah... Maybe slight defected goods from the factory oso, so may not be totally fake, just not well made. After the whole afternoon there, we went for dinner with yet another of my dad's friend... But this time it's a VIP! Haha... Nice restaurant, good food... sharkfin (one pot per person!)... And a lot of good food lahz... Sinfully delicious! Lol... Uncle Steven was a nice person too...
Final day we just walked ard the shopping mall near my dad's apartment... the sales ppl were all very friendly but when they know u dun speak canto... they'll have a difficulty le... then suddenly all go quiet =X Hah... only one guy keep talking and talking and introducing the clothes there in Eng... Good try lah, but din really find anything in the shop very appealing. Dear bought a nice jacket from 12am though! Worth totally worth the money! Look very shuai in it orh~ ;P Yeah... so tt was my last day in HK... Not enuff time man... haven't gone up to the peak! But nvm lah, there's always next time... Wonderful holiday =) Oh yeah... first time i realised looking at stars frm the aeroplane at nite is such a beautiful thing! My goodness... Really a lot of stars... much more than a clear sky in sg... *dazzled* Hee... Such a nice way to end the trip... and welcome us back to sg =)
Need to exercise le! Too much good food... dun dare to weigh myself after i got back =X Haha... Going to play badminton or maybe bball tml! =)

Alright! Im here to update again~ Been a relaxing week and now it's back to a full week of work before HK HK HK!!! Wahaha~ =P
Anyways, last week managed to spend time with quite a number of ppl~ Went to watch The Incredibles dvd at Piggy's place on Monday, then met ek at bishan for dinner... Then Wednesday went jogging in the morning near Piggy's place then went Kelly Services with ek to look for full-time job, hoping to start in April... But haven't informed joel yet... must wait till she comes back from her cruise this Friday then can ask. Yeah... Thursday was swimming day! Haha... Not bad lah, jogging and swimming are pretty good exercise~ Spent the whole morning at Sembawang Country Club... Relaxing in the jacuzzi, swimming in the pool and enjoying breakfast at the poolside! Wah... Enjoy life man...! Haha... Eh... but still got tan lines after applying sun block... luckily not very obvious~ But ar... the jacuzzi had this funny grass smell so din stay inside for too long lah...~ Haha... We went to shower at about 12+ when the sun was really getting hot, and had to walk all the way out to take a bus... My mom had to work lah, otherwise can fetch us back too =P Heh...
Phew... Then came the open houses weekend! NUS open house on Saturday was damn crowded! Good thing we already went to listen to their talks in Dec, so just went ard their faculty visits and collect brochures.... After tt we were quick shacked cos the weather too hot lah, make ppl very lethargic... Went Snowcity! Haha... been some time since i've been there but is hasn't changed a bit! Whoah... it was freezzzzzing! A TOTAL opposite from the weather outside! And tt piggy ar... insist on using my lousy pink gloves... His one's so much warmer! Hee... end up his hands were freezing until all numb lahz... *hugs* Thank u dear~! But u dun wanna exchange with me no matter how much i say u lah! So ur fault oso =X Haha... We went up tt big slope and slide down on tt rubber thingy (tt didn't protect my butt from hitting the ice!) a couple of times and my butt was all wet from the melted ice~ Lol... and hurts too =X a whole day out really tiring but super enjoyable =D despite our budget dinner =P But ar... haiz... gambling really spoils things lah, mahjong made my day end like shit. But dun think abt how the day ended, think abt how i spent it sure makes me feel better~ =) Sunday went NTU open house with eileen, geri and sp! weather super hot as usual~ But good thing the place had some aircon... Except it was kinda boring... So it was a good excuse for us to leave early and head back to Jurong Point to shop!! Heh... But... to our disappointment, there wasn't much to see or buy around there. Oh yeah! Met yp and andrea at NTU... saw many familiar faces too...
So tt was my rest week before working whole of this week~ It's my first time having to work almost full-day the whole week... But thinking of the money, it's worth it! Esp when it's not sales period, things are a lot less messy... But ppl are more arrogant... like the one i met today... I was trying to explain to her tt she can only try 4 pieces but i can keep the other pieces for her first and she had to re-queue if she wanted to try... then she still ask me to take another size for her and i told her the same thing again... then she still ask for those pieces i kept for her... so for the third time i told her she had to re-queue cos there're ppl outside waiting to use the fitting room... then she was like damn frustrated and said we're so inflexible. The way she treat the clothes oso damn terrible lah, use so much force like "the clothes de jui her liddat" (as my collaegue put it) Well, that's just one of the many unreasonable customers but there're also very nice ones... so im not complaining, just letting everyone reading this know tt such ppl do exist! Lol... Oh yeah~ Just got my pay! Though it's really not much but it feels good u know~ Gonna give the cheque a kiss tonite then deposit it tml =P Haha...
Oohhhh... Can't wait for Sunday!! Hong Kong, here we come! WooHoOO~! =P

Wanted to update about getting results yesterday... But now i'm feeling the worst i've ever felt in a long time and totally no mood about results watsoever. Wat can i say? I just thot too well of how things were going... im not tt strong afterall... Really not strong at all. Wat happened to all promises? Maybe im not making sense at all, maybe im reading too much into things... Or maybe things just ain't how i wished it would've been... Wish i could just stop myself from thinking... Just stop everything...
undried tears of happiness? or of sorrow? who could tell...? It doesn't matter.
