It ‘s been about one and a half months I’ve started working in a permanent job now. Boy, has it been a tough ride. The first two weeks were like heaven — not much to do. Then, the work came pouring in. Some days I am left feeling a little overwhelmed, but all I can do is tell myself to…
Year: 2011
mpms 2012
I can’t believe it’s already been one year since Most Promising Minority. It was and will always be a great memory. One year ago, I was sitting around in the library trying to figure out my statistics homework when I checked my email and got that surprise. I never thought a rather ordinary nobody like me would get it because…
quick updates
Went to the birdpark on Wednesday with KS and family. Erm…when was the last time I went there? When I was in primary school? School excursions and consent forms…nostalgic. Anyway, I think I enjoyed the penguins and owls *pictures meowzy here* the most. I also learnt that the boy attracts birds (and bird poop for that matter) because a lorikeet…
pink party
Argh. I remember helping to vote for this and was very happy when our school won. Then, the disappointment came when I realised the party would only be this Fall. Dang.
why are you like that?
I recently completed watching 会長はメイド様! Ah yes, I must say I’m a sucker for 少女 anime/manga. Typical 少女 anime with cute/pretty girl, charming guy (to die for), and a happily ever after ending. What puzzles me most is the way the guy is portrayed when pursuing the girl. I think it does happen in real life too. So someone please…
morning musume 10th generation
Following the graduation of Ai-chan, つんく♂ has decided to add more girls to his famed group, モーニング娘。. I find that a little fast since the 9th generation members have barely blended in with the other members, but I guess つんく♂ couldn’t bear seeing モーニング娘。 become a smaller 8-member group compared to rival AKB48. Of the 9th generation members, I think…
matchbox cars
That’s what the F1 cars remind me of when they are zooming down the track. We had narrowly missed the chance of going to the F1 race, but somehow fate decreed that we would watch our first F1 race (in style no less) this year. Yup, we got sky suite passes thanks to DBS. Our trip to the sky…
tokyo skyscraper
A bit of an overdued post, but here’s my two cent’s worth of the SCANDAL concert… It began with a bit of chaos with the queue. Sis, Jie Yu and I arrived at 1.45pm to join the unofficial queue outside the theatre at LASALLE. Yes, it was an unofficial queue thanks to a note right where the entrance to the…

“We are responsible for our own effectiveness, for our own happiness, and ultimately, I would say, for most of our circumstances.” — Stephen R. Covey “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” In the midst of thinking of how to help Sis overcome her problems, I re-read the first chapter of “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” about proactivity. When I…
30 day song challenge day 05: song that reminds me of someone
Day 05 — A song that reminds you of someone Actually, any Kanjani8 song will remind me of Perrine (Per), but I think the most appropriate Kanjani8 song would be “Osaka Romanesque”. It was the time when I was overly crazy about NewS and she was overly crazy about Kanjani8. I remember this song held meaning for us because we…
