more competitions

Those who have digicams…here comes another digital photo competition. This time by Health Promotion Board. More details here.

And for those who think they are pro at Flash MX and ActionScript. Something you might like to consider. More details here. Sounds pretty chim though. Not my cup of tea.

The results for the digital photo competition by IDA are out. View the winning entries here.

Good news. I got shortlisted for the interview for OSIP. It’s next Tuesday. Seriously, I still think it’s a pretty slim chance. But anyway…I’ve already come that far. Better to have tried than nothing at all.

CMSK meeting skills assessment was ok. I don’t know if you consider it suay or lucky but I drew out the lot to be chairperson. Miss Ng said that whoever who got that lot must go and buy 4D. *to Wee Hua, Louis, Lay Chu and Siti* So, where’s my number from each of you? *kidding* I think I sucked at being the chairperson. Hell…I don’t even know how to be one. I was just racking my brains for what to say to move the meeting along. Anyway, it’s over. 🙂

Heh…the reason why I complained about the Shrooms burger coz it’s too SMALL! Ate that again today to confirm. Yep…definitely too small. Had dinner around 7.30pm and now at around 11+pm, I’m hungry again. -_-|||

I went to TM MJ with a mission to get the Xue Tian Shi soundtrack. When I saw the Arashi How’s It Going? Summer 2003 concert vcd, I ditched the idea of getting the soundtrack. Heh…only got enough money for one item. So it’s either or…too bad, Arashi was more appealing. Muahahahaha…

Tomorrow there’s make-up lessons for ORDS. After which our group will be discussing on the ORDS project. Wanted to go to Toro’s autograph session but project comes first. Oh well…never mind. Going to the Shakespeare play tomorrow with Sis and Desmond. Hehe…can’t wait to laugh till my sides ache.

Shucks! I think last week was the last episode for the season of CSI. Bleargh.

On a brighter note, Buffy’s BACK!

Grandparents left for home *Malaysia* today.

IN3D is tough but pretty cool in a way too. Tough coz we gotta do a short animation for project 2. Gotta model the characters all by ourselves.

Cool coz you can even model real stuff. Like today’s lab exercise was to model a can of Sunmaid raisins. Complete with the label. 🙂 The other time was a vitamin bottle. Nature’s Way Royal Jelly I think.

Since Mum and Sis were going to the hairdresser in town, decided to make a trip down too. For dinner. Went to Kino first. Bought a few magazines. Almost got my hands on Elizabeth Wurtzel’s “More, Now, Again”. The book I picked up was a little dog-earred at the bottom of the cover. Asked if they had a new copy. The one I was holding was the only copy left. Didn’t buy it in the end.

Moral of the story: Elisia likes her books nice and new. No dog-earred covers or pages, thank you very much.

like normal

Ahhh…finally able to blog like normal, although I anticipate a few days of no entries in the days to come due to the on-going projects.

Having some problem with Haloscan. It’s pretty irritating when the important entries do not have a comments box. Boooooooooo…

Oh yea…I’ve handed in my application for OSIP. Decided to heed Mr Douglas’s advice and try out. No harm trying. There is a very slim chance I’ll get in anyway. Even if I don’t get it, at least I’ll be contented that I did try.

Sis might be slipping into her depression problem again. She woke up today feeling all wrong. Mum took leave to make sure she was alright.

Went to school an hour earlier. Needed to prepare the STMD tutorial.

There was HR Management tutorial. Mrs Tay returned our PBL Problem 1 report. Our group didn’t do too well. 68%. I looked through it and was rather horrified. That was why I said I didn’t really trust Joel. Instead of organising the stuff and retyping it, he just took whatever information we passed to him and put it in. Oh well…

Was supposed to meet Nad after her work at Tampines MRT station to pass her the LIME Celebrity Double Search at Zouk invitation. Forgot about it until I was bathing. Checked my handphone. *phew* She just messaged to say she’s on the way. In the end, I asked if she could come to my house instead. Apologies to Nad.

Went to get my mc. Stopped by at the library to look for books for IN3D. Found one on 3D characters.

Continued working on the STMD proposal.

At 1am, finally done! Yay!

It’s getting hard to blog regularly. A lot more projects to be completed. Mad rush.

For Friday to Sunday’s entries, click “previous”…

sunday’s entry

Time to chiong projects.

Started to work on the STMD proposal. Stopped around 6pm to bathe and get ready for dinner. Dinner with relatives.

Reached home around 11pm.

Worked on the STMD proposal till around 2am. After which, I had no choice but decide to take mc for the next day to finish it. Couldn’t work anymore. My grandparents need to sleep. I was feeling tired anyway. There’s still IN3D to do.

saturday’s entry

by

Couldn’t make it for the make-up IN3D lecture at 8am coz I was really very tired. Thanks Xiu Wei!

Went to school a little later to help out with the JCG drama screening. Poor response once again. Only me, Qi Yuan, Shi Ming and Darwin. Heh…all JCG members. I left at 1pm…a little earlier.

Met Sis, Da Ge and Zhi Hao. All meeting up to go to the IT Show. At the bus stop, Raynor, Cas and Xiu Wei joined. At the interchange, Sis left to meet Mum for lunch. I went on.

Met Yingwei and Clare at City Hall MRT station. Whoa…the crowd moving towards Suntec. All going to the IT Show. At the IT Show, worse. Met Shaz halfway. Thought I saw Meliza helping out.

After about 2 hours at the IT Show, I left while they got a drink. Going to ACS Institution at Dover Road for S.H.E’s mini concert. Thought there might be a really long queue. Not too bad actually when I reached there.

The concert lasted for about an hour. Managed to take a few shots and 2 short video clips. Yay!



Called Sis. She was in Orchard with Desmond. They too haven’t had dinner. So I went to meet them for dinner at Taka.

While walking to Taka, at the carpark outside Somerset MRT station, saw this couple. The guy was holding the umbrella *it was raining*. Suddenly, must be some dispute, he just let the umbrella fall to the side and he started pulling the girl by her hand.

I hate guys who get violent with girls. What the hell. Just coz males are the so-called stronger gender, that gives them the right to get violent? That’s why girls cannot be too girly. Must be able to fight back to protect themselves. Must be able to stand up for themselves.

Reached home feeling tired and achy all over again.

My grandparents are staying in our house till Wednesday.

friday’s entry

ORDS lab test. Managed to get the procedure created. But there’s some parts wrong in my procedure coz when I run, the results I get aren’t the supposed results. Oh well…Mrs Ho said I was getting close to the answer.

Rushed down to Cineleisure in a cab. S.H.E’s autograph session. By the time I reached there, it was about 6.30pm. Whoa! The queue was horrendous. There was no proper barrier. The queue was just formed behind cineleisure, near Long John’s, on the grass patch.

I didn’t want to go queue up yet. From experience, the queue will go haywire once S.H.E comes.

S.H.E arrived around 7pm. Couldn’t see anything coz the tent flap was covering. The tent was faced to the front of Cineleisure anyway. By then, the queue was starting to go haywire. But queue was still visible. Police chasing people to just go on the grass patch. I just remained on the pavement.

Around 7.30pm. Saw Joycelyn and Duan Neng. They wanted to go queue. I decided to join them. 8pm. We only moved like 50m. What the hell. The queue doesn’t even look like it’s moving.

Suddenly, the dreaded happened. The queue went haywire. Everyone started running forward, forming a crowd. One lump…as Joycelyn described. It was really stuffy but nothing could be done except to pray hope that the crowd would move along faster.

A few hours pass. The left side of the crowd *my side* haven’t really moved. Only a few metres. People are starting to get impatient. A few yell out at the police to do something. There were railings on the side. The only way to get out of the crowd would be to climb over the railings which was a little risk. At about 10.30pm, the thought of giving up and climbing over the railings crossed my mind. On both sides of me, people were almost crushing my bones. I was thinking it might be impossible that S.H.E would even autograph everyone’s cd. However, Joycelyn and Duan Neng weren’t ready to give up. So I made up my mind to persevere with them.

I could hear my handphone ringing non-stop but I couldn’t even get my handphone. Squashed.

Alleluia. 11.30pm, the crowd finally starts to disperse and actually move. It was declared that everyone’s cd would be autographed. Our perseverance paid off. We were the last few in the queue. Checked my handphone. 12 missed calls and a message. Messaged Mum to apologise and told her I’ll be sharing a cab with the Joycelyn and Duan Neng.

12 midnight and I finally got both my cds autographed! I got to shake all 3 hands. Selina was softly singing along to “Bo Si Mao” which was playing out through the amplifier. Ella was the friendliest. She thanked every fan whose cd she autographed. Hebe was a little disappointing though. She didn’t even smile or look up. Just signed and pushed the booklet along. But I guess she’s tired.

The 3 of us were awfully thirsty. Got a drink from Cheers. Then shared a cab home. By the time I reached home, my body was aching and I had a headache. My eyes were dry. Stupid me forgot to bring out the eyedrops.


The stamp reads “S.H.E @ Singapore”.

2 versions of S.H.E’s new album.


Hebe didn’t sign properly on this one.

Effective advertising. After watching that advertisement, Sis decided to go download “Hey Ya”. And she insists on playing it now. Feel like blasting back Black Eyed Peas’s “Shut Up” in response. Wahahahaha…

The project meeting lasted for only 45 minutes. Haha. We decided to prepare the ER diagram individually then meet up again to finalise things.

And it rained heavily…AGAIN. -_-||| Spoilt my plans. Went to TM instead. Mini shopping spree? Haha. Got both versions of S.H.E’s latest album. OP’s got new stuff. Too bad…didn’t have enough money so I didn’t go check the stuff out. Don’t wanna get tempted even more.

I did go walking in the rain. Had to drop by the library to get some books for the new HR PBL problem. Only had my file to provide whatever miserable shelter there was from the rain. Plus I’m wearing slippers. I hate it when it rains and I’m wearing slippers. Makes it easier to slip.

Heh hey! I’m back home. Having break now, going back to school later. Since the rest are having lessons or doing their projects, that leaves me alone. And I need to get my ORDS stuff…yep…home it is.

Having ORDS project discussion after school. Dennis informed me this morning which is kinda short notice. I didn’t bring my project specs and notes with me.

Was planning to maybe go down to the IT show this afternoon. Since I finish at 2pm. Plus the fact that I won’t be free tomorrow and Saturday. Sunday…not sure. Might be busy preparing certain projects. And my paternal grandparents and uncle will be in Singapore for about a week or so. I think we gotta entertain them on Sunday. Hmmm…I think the rest might be going today.

Anyway, can’t go now since I got ORDS project meeting. Depends. Maybe I might drop by after the discussion if it ends early. Then maybe not…coz I might feel lazy. Haha…

80 years

Went down to school a little earlier coz PK was in TP. She dropped by for a little visit. She was really excited. For what reason, I really don’t know. Perhaps studying in TP for almost 2 years already, makes TP just normal and boring.

Had lunch with PK and Jo at Design school canteen. Saw Mr Douglas. Had a quick chat with him.

And us 3 girls gained the experience of having a cockroach crawl around our feet. It happened too fast for us to even scream. I’m amazed…truly I am. Anyway, die you blasted cockroach…die.

I went off for IN3D lab. The other 2 went to watch “Big Fish”. Rajes and I were delighted to finish our lab a little earlier. Rajes asked Michael Shaw to let us off earlier since we’re done with the exercise. The amused Mr Shaw let us go after a little thinking. Haha…

Went to my grandparent’s house. To celebrate grandma’s 80th birthday. Dinner was soya sauce chicken. Grandma’s favourite.
