HAPPY BIRTHDAY CASS~ 

haha today was an eventful day (:

Went to bishan in the morning to get cake for surprise party, n on the way met chunyang before going over... When everyone reached Admiralty mrt station, I called cass, pretending I fought with my parents and asked her if i could go to her house (in the cry-ish way). Cass asked her mum n she said okay, so i said i was 15 minutes away. (Of course her mum knows! i asked her for permission to crash her house ytd!!)
We reached and went to 9th level so that we don't make so much noise and alert her. We were like crowding around the middle level between 7th and 8th stairs trying to put the candles in place when this aunty suddenly came up to us with that *suspicious eyes*!! haha then she saw the cake and went away.

Then to execute the plan! It kind of was not exactly like how i planned... i was supposed to call her n tell her i am outside so she open the door, then as she opens the door, we sing happy birthday!
But the actually thing went like that... somehow, the brothers didn't come with me to the door, hiding by the turn. So i just pressed the door bell, n cass let me in with me "looking rather down"... closing the door behind me. Then the 8 brothers came again, ringing the door bell. Cass's mum shouted at cass to open the door. Then she opens and "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!........" harharhar!! got a shock of her life man! (: yayness!

Then chunyang managed to convince me to go watch liu xing's concert... bloody $55!! ahh! and the row behind us where moses n gang were sitting were like $20!!!!!!!! Q#@)U@)G($GVP@$(... thanks man! and it wasn't rlly worth it... as usual the orchestra: intonation er... balance er.... yea u get the point

yay shall go facebook upload pictures of today

Out of practice

yea seriously... my fingers just refuse to be evenly in control, with me staring at horror as my fingers become tangled o.O...

Grace came at 1.30am, n we cooked maggi mee n milk tea while watching in the dark (: nice!

Okay shall do the pissed one now.
When u are pissed, these are the few things u can do to alleviate the mounting fire in you:
1) Go take a warm, steamy shower. Better still if u have bath tub. Use it as how a bath tub should be used (: The effect is instantaneous!
2) Play your instrument!! Get you off your thoughts for that while, kind of an escape to some heavenly retreat in your mind. Okay an escape from troubles/reality. It de-stresses too! <3<3>

Ah well... *waits for photos to be bluetoothed into lappy*


Today I tagged along with mum to her ex-colleagues' reunion lunch. We went to this jap restaurant called shokudo @ Heeren. I thought it was quite cool... like how the 6 of them were colleagues for not more than 5 years, and yet they are still in contact with each other now. They were all engineers in VSL, and now all of them are not in VSL... the power of friendship... haha, and then most are married with children (: (ME!!) I went for their previous reunion as well (about 3 or 4 years ago). It's quite cool how although they left VSL at different times, they still are together. And it's been at least 10 years already. Then i suddenly found myself thinking, "Will TBR be like them in the not so far away future?" Well, basically TBR, but other groups of friends too... will we still meet up after we have our own jobs n our own lives to live? I think it really depends on staying in contact and really giving the effort to make it possible. Haha...


ANYWAY, that restaurant was quite cool! It wasn't really a restaurant. More like a street of jap food... Took some pictues of it:


That is outside heeren... shokudo. name of restaurant



This is INSIDE shokudo (: one of the stalls



The "more like street" thing i was talking about... stalls along a roadway haha..

And then we use card to pay for whatever we want to eat... The exit is erm supermarket look alike. A few cashiers for ppl to queue up and pay up (depending on the amount in the card) before being able to exit... hahaha. cool~


okay i shall go n slp. tmr's a day for chionging SRQ, n math (which i will probably DO on monday. do.)

stupid tagboard

hm.... some how after using safari for a long time, using internet explorer back is abit funny... i think i like safari more than explorer.. haha.

Never thought i'd say this so early, but, i am really looking forward to this year's NAC piano and violin music competition. 5-13 dec (: 2 years back one was quite wow, since i am such a noob in piano...

Tuesday.
For the first time in my whole life, i had nothing- NOTHING at all to do on a typical tuesday afternoon. AHH the CCA days!!! :( :( :(
But thankfully the taiwan guys are around. Went to AMK hub with lele and shirlynn and we totally spammed the food section, which is a pathetic plot of sunken land on basement 1. While waiting for hui jun of course! Then the taiwan buddies, huiyan n A lee came, to find that the taiwan buddies wanted to shop more than eat... haha. anyway, we the few of us kind of "stalked" them around AMK hub! banged into them, n ingrid's buddy called me! haha he remembers my name! It was quite boring actually, walking aimlessly, but at the same time, quite a way to waste time off. Took pics with the taiwan buddies (THEIR LAST DAY WITH US! ahh haha) before they left! And then we found out that ingrid's buddy (jing han! i rmb your name! haha) made a bracelet that says I <3 S*X hahaha so naughty arh! and he is younger than us o.o

I guess my youth day ytd is repaid today haha.

Then when you are alone at home, and feel like relaxing, i have some suggestions (: it works!! haha that's if u are an avid fan of brahms or in general, classical music :P
1) Listen to Brahms. ESPECIALLY symphony no 4 movement 1. It is overly soothing and romantic. Basis: his harmony is superb! Painting a calm and relaxed mood in the atmosphere. Like what one of my friend said when he heard it, " feels like a leaf slowly floating down... as light as feather." I was having major trauma one fine day last year n i turned it on. That totally made me more composed! yay for brahms. totally sensational.
2) Get some chocolate! It really works! chocolate's been scientifically proven that it calms one down. So no reason to not try! haha only, please don't take chocolates which are of lousy quality ( those chinese new year coin chocolates are totally OUT). Cadbury works just fine. Swiss chocs are still better though (:
3) Go turn on the computer and start blog surfing! *with brahms still playing of course* alternatively, read your own past entries if you have a blog. It brings back a little of nostalgia, but the over effect is really cool.
4) Go watch a movie. at home of course! turn on HBO or Star World or something along that line...with a cup of hot drink. Fattening, not really, depending on what drink you have. Entertaining, totally. Relaxing, probably, depending on what movie you are watching
5) Do some catching up with old friends you haven't been seeing for a long long long time! It totally let u rmb all the happy past that u had been forced to leave behind.

Okay, that's the end of things u can do if u are alone at home and feel like relaxing. shall do the pissing one the next time i blog! haha

sorry for the tagboard once again! pls all the way down if u want to tag! which i highly doubt so

NOT AGAIN!!!!

FOR SOME REASONS, MY STUPID TAGBOARD AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS BELOW MY WHOLE POST AGAIN...... sigh until when i decide to see how to fix it again, i'm so sorry! haha

Happy Youth Day!

Youth Day saw me walking down the sodden path alone, along Bugis...

Haha, no, actually my plan for today is to stay at home and finish up my homework o.O basically just HMP research paper on Verdi and his Operas... yea, i know, such a stupid me who chose a topic that is not that easy to do. Went to Bugis library to find more stuff on Verdi. Well, no, actually it is for me to get more citations which would look nice on my bibliography page. Cos the books I photocopied pages of and borrowed were not of much use. Well, mum dropped me off, n went to hospital, giving me around 1 hour to finish my data collecting, which I did in slightly less than an hour.
So i decided to go walk around Bugis. Went into the iluma, and that was quite interesting.. Realised some interesting things. From saturday's shopping spree and today's iluma, i realised that the new shopping malls in s'pore are rather greyscale and they really focus on exterior design. And small intricate shops as the main shops, with restaurants all high up in the sky, haha. Well, at least, i bought a few presents there, and went to OG to buy the pair of shoes I saw ytd which i wanted (: Okay, so it's hello kitty flats, but hey, it looks nice (: A little treat for my lonely youth day, haha... In the end, I had to go home myself cos if i didn't, i won't be able to finish my hmp paper... while walking, rain poured -.- thanks mann...

Was on the train when i saw this poster along the tunnel at city hall...
 i think it should be readable, yea that's me with my new bag which mum bought a few days ago for me, and a black skirt. Holding an OG bag with shoes inside. Anyway, just so incase it is unreadable, the whole thing goes lke this:

The composer Johannes Brahms  was an avid collector of toy soldiers. He played with them until even well in his thirties!

That was an advertisement for SSO's 30th anniversary, but main point is, BRAHMS! <3>
oops haha! well, now i have ALMOST finished hmp paper (: shall go finish it up

Inspirational

nothing. just suddenly thought of that title.

had a very very funny conversation with qin kai ytd (: kept me awake the whole of the 1st three wee hours of today (: could NOT stop laughing at all... HAHAHAHA oops, so sorry! After the whole thing I was felt guilty yet amused at the same time.

i realised i have been "blogging" for a very long time. and this is what i had written so far haha

Spent my whole day out with mum today... well not exactly the whole day cos i woke up for lunch o.O But it was the whole afternoon and night! We were planning to go to the new mall, orchard centre, to look around. Dad dropped us opposite Far East cos he didn't want to go into town aka pay ERP... so we walked across the overhead bridge, and on a side note, saw gao tian! HAHAHA.... anyway, walked across the overhead bridge, n mum was choosing whether to walk down by the bridge or just slunk into far east n walk down from there aka enjoy aircon... of course we can't resist the temptation of aircon haha... so we went into far east. AND then, the most predictable thing happened... HAHAHAHA we went in n was stuck in there for around 3 hours. OOPS!
Saw rebekah and the taiwan buddy there too! haha... we walked the whole of far east, and tried many dresses, and of course finally bought many dresses too! Quite cool (: Fruitful day i guess... HAHA...

then we went on to orchard centre and had a look around. design was quite nice, but a bit too grey scale. Very interesting themes for each level, and that's about it cos there are still many shops that are not ready to open for business yet. Then we found out one thing. The MOS BURGER outlet there was the most HIGH CLASS mos burger outlet ever! haha like seriously, glass cup for drinks and soup cup for soup? haha!

Did some catching up with an old old old friend whom i recently just start seeing her again. Ah the old times (: for a period of time, i didn't know if we could still get together again... haha thanks for just now though!

<3 my new dresses n shirts n BELT! haha

Okay i admit! Russian composers are good. Recently just got addicted to Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. Okay weird, but seriously! it is really nice! But that is an interesting piece of music... created a riot in the audiences when it first premiered. Half the hall supported that piece, and the other half were against it.
But I still like the germans more. BRAHMS~ haha Brahms FTW!
