stuff me like a pig

maybe it was tired of me typically messing things up and decided that it would be the one to screw up the worship this time.

i look at yeeps, yeeps look at fu wen, fu wen look at deqi, deqi look at all of us.
someone was out of tune!!!

but the stupid sound system is such that
i can hear everyone else except my keyboard,
fu wen can hear everyone else except his bass
and yeeps can hear no one.
i.e. we are seriously playing by faith.

yeeps: you playing A [chord] right?

me: A!! A!!

fuwen: i playing A

deqi: A

how come your A and my A sounds so different!?!!

you'd think a keyboard can never be out of tune.. sia lar... think again. the funny thing was that it was just that 1 song... i think the KB hates that song.

6 pizzas + chicken wings + 2 lasagna --> 20 youth...
very generous...very stuffed....
left overs spill to the young adults... yay!!!



fu wen por por birthday chalet
ate like 5 plates of lasagna, and umpteen chicken wings, satay,,,blah blah
but still the aunties will ask me to eat more... cannot make it already!!!!!

so fun, played pool-cum-insult-session with fu wen and benita.
strangely, we are happy dishing sarcasm rather than pissed off while dishing nice words

triple birthday at fish n co

14 of us. almost full turnout...wow... wee and boss rocks!!!



this is proof that i'm not the most narcissistic one of the gang.

finally, kia straightened his hair. not bad not bad, looks corporate.



awwwwww...


the june babies. small, smaller and not-small-anymore.


i'm a serious shui tong... the waitress got tired of refilling my cup.

Shu wen's grand entrance. very very rare appearance by my ex-twin. quick, buy 4D!

the burning chocolate fudge cake
24 x 3= 72 years old

i go toilet, yuki fool around with my stuff....


the night is still young and we're not the chionging type so......


UGLY! UGLY! UGLY! BAM! BAM! BAM!

Saboteaur

there is no way to describe how fun, nonsensical and utterly gut splitting this game was!!!!
only those who were there can understand why this photo captures the reason why we were laughing our ass off!!!
lets just say yuki placed the left most card, and his role is a 'gold-digger'.

here's to the greatest! funnest! grandest! most interesting! best batch of SSC eva!!!!!!

fashion is a pain

5km--> 42min

check out my new desk!
apparently it's cursed... no one wants to sit there cos its the "i quit teaching" desk!
well... I dont care! I HAVE A DESK!


these things are like sooo fun. its like lego... i love lego.

marking my territory. ahh... i love my name.


out of nowhere fufu messaged for a movie date. i love spontaneity, more often then not it will turn out to be more fun then something planned...

i call it the jon doe look. the everyday man style is hot!

meet sam the glam you can see one loves the camera and the other one does not.


zohan was hilarious!!!! ahahahahah,,, my fave scene was the swimming one... freak!!!

totally forgot that my feet were crap pain from spending the whole day scuttling around school in my 3 inch heels. that is until after the show when i strapped them on again.... freak!!!!

fufu tried to persuade me to change to slippers but i wanted to look work chic....yeah i know.. fashion is a pain. ended up walking reaaaaallly slow. and all the while i'm thinking: dont say 'i told you so'..... pls pls DONT say 'i told you so'

1st day of internship

5km: 36 mins

its actually called practicum but its easier for non-teachers to understand

13 of us crammed at a table the size of a 10 seater dining table. no way,,,, i need space. no way! i need space for my organized mess! 13 of us. i wonder how will we get along. there's

the fashionista
the really-reminds-me-of-ian guy
the lao jiaos
the look-lao-jiaos
the quiet ones
the cannot stop talking ones

and then there's the dont-make-me-reveal-that-i-failed one.... yeah.. been dodging the questions of my experiance.

ANYWAY,,, there's nothing much i can do in the mean while cos all the teachers have their hands full with school-reopening-admin. and the teacher i'm attached to is on MC.

so i'm left with this.

you know i cant really let on too much about work cos ..... i might get into trouble so yeah, dont expect to know about the dirty little secrets that goes behind doors. muahhahahha

one cool thing tho, we get the straits times every monday with a special section. theres the HOME, LIFE, WORLD, CLASSIFIEDS, and then theres 'in'. only schools get it it seems. its not that interesting, rather childish topics,

but hey,

hard to get things INTRIGUE me ;p

sunglasses and the lamp

breakfast overdose... bleh... ended up missing service... double bleh.
but just had to go for cell group so took a cab down to church in the gloomy weather.
turns out i wasn't the only one with bad breakfast choices... ahhaha... MacIdiot.. yeah.. idiot has a new name.

i think we're getting lazy... hardly any of us did our Masterlife homework. so in the end sharing was kinda dull and awkward. my mind was kinda not there also, i think its the weather la...

there's one thing meng hwee said that i REALLY liked tho. we were sharing on Psalms 119:105 --> word your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

and he said this: sometimes, although we have the lamp, we wear sunglasses.

SOOOOOO TRUE!!!!!

so many times i read the bible but blind myself to the truth... just going through the motion without benefiting from it... sooo dumb.

i really love meng hwee's sharing. really humbling to see someone who tries his best to seek God throughout the week. and God answers sincerity with really cool insights!!!

collecting rice sacks. guess why~~~
i would like to think yeeps is kidnapping ben but nah.....tis to pack the church stuff... the office is gonna get renovated. that means our cell has to be held in the school classrooms. whoo hoo... good morning class! open your books to chapter 5, allan come up to the whiteboard to write down the memory verse! wahahhaha..... Miss Yamada is on duty for sunday as well!

when in simpang, beware of birdshit.

fu wen went to play soccer with some team i dunnoe. 1st sunday in a long long time that i dont spend the whole day with him.

finally talking

this is what i have been doing for 2 days.
my butt is like permanently stuck to my chair, legs up, one hand stuck to the mouse...

watching grey's anatomy for the 3rd time, taping myself on the guitar...
there's a change tho, i finally talked. and my mouth couldn't stop!!! no one to talk to then i started singing the house down...ahhahah

the thing that pulled me out was realizing that the silence thing was rubbing off on my dad.
he always seemed to treat my room as a sanctuary.
he would come up after cleaning the house and lie on the floor, enjoy the air-con and talk to me.
he would come up when he thinks he pissed mom off to hide. hee....

i think the plus factor is that i'm e only one he can talk to in Japanese.
and so when i clammed up, he clammed up.

otosan has always been chatty and optimistic. to see him silent and dull is scary enough to jolt me awake....

2nd silent day

i havent talked to anyone in 2 days.

i mean actual words. i grunt tho, its multi purpose.

mom: do you want to go shopping?
me: *nnngh*

mom: make sure you clear up kei's clothes.
me: *nnngh*

thats my human interaction for the day.

so i'm left to myself again.its really quiet.

i spend my whole day watching 4 seasons of grey's anatomy again.

my stomach cannot take the amount of food i'm forcing in.
i might need to cut down soon.

I'm George

I'm George.
i failed but the interns at the school dun seem to know it. I'm not opening my mouth to say much either. they don't ask, i don't tell.

now they are confused as to why i seem to be getting different treatment from them.
why does the HOD know this newbie? why does this newbie know so much?

argh. i just want to get this over and done with.

back home is sickness and quarreling. relationships are cold.

i'm frustrated at my lack of will power to make myself happy.
somebody said i have always been emo.
sigh~ all the effort in being friendly wasted.

public slaves


830am to 530pm meeting at Beatty secondary . almost died of sian-ness.
my new colleagues! all 80 of them. so far so good, they seem like a really lovable bunch.

one good thing is that there's a never ending supply of food and snacks.

Vegetarian buffet!!!

the school's cafe and billard corner
waaayyy cool. but the table's locked up as you can see. haven played pool in ages... itchy...

CHIPPY is crappy

could only meet fufu after he knock off so bummed my morning at my laptop.
idiot joel lets me know i have nicknames i do not know about, but wont tell me what they are or who gave them to me. i hate knowing yet not knowing.

tick tick tick tiiiinnnggg! i grab my wallet and hp and head off to town.
we strolled all the way to city hall, talking about how disgusting MacDonalds ingredients really are...

CHIPPY British Takeaway @ Raffles City

just thought to try it since it looked fun. verdict: puny portion and boring.
but playing with the food was fun!

Crinkle Fries & Cheesy Curry Chicken (extra spicy)
comes with the cheese, mayonnaise and chilli sauces.
call me cheap but the taste is not worth $3.00 + $3.80.
next time we'll get the fish and the Deep Fried Mars!!!



Met Yi xiang at the IT fairi've not talked to him in ages but he knows how i spent my birthday.
see.... blogging makes catching up sooo much easier!!!

nothing great to look at the IT fair this time. or maybe we've already got everything we want.

Otosan's Father's Day prezzie :)
since now he's back permanently, he'll need one.
tough job searching for a big font/ big button/ not too small phone sia...
seems like its pretty popular with NS guys cos its one of the very few these days without a camera.
its a surprise but since he hasn't connected his wireless yet he cant view my blog.. muaahahaha.
