haha finally here is the first post of the year!!! so I was going through the pictures in my photobooth and I found these... hahaha
1. Falling asleep.....

2. Deeper sleep.... mouth starts to open slightly

3. mouth open wide... this is where the drooling begins

the funny thing is... he took all of this by himself.... I think I've rubbed off too much on him already... hahahaha
PS: Dear holiday... please don't end... EVER

was just surfing around the internet and I found this!

The song is pretty awesome and the video is supercute... apparently it is sung by Victoria Beckham but I don't know how true that is... I'm still in disbelief....

2009

2009-01-04T05:20:49Z

An entry to prove that this blog is not dead... hahaha.. Anyways.. I just want to say that 2008 was crazy awesome right till the last moment (: Being in the constant presence of the lovely ones who really matter in the year of 2008 who I forsee myself spending copious amounts of time with in the coming one billion light years.. haha
I don't really make resolutions because its more fulfilling and spontaneous to live by the moment..I see resolutions as more of a reminder when we make certain decisions and not as a mandatory thing... so I set out thinking of things I would like to remind myself in 2009 and after some thought I decided not to write it because the first thing that came to my mind was to not to buy the same style of shoes all the time... see my point now...I feel that I have justified myself in not writing resolutions for a long time...that is it for now.. I really feel like eating something yummy.....................

PS:no I don't like to use the LJ cut function... so what you gonna do about it? hahaha

I'm a happy camper!!

2008-04-17T13:20:05Z

project submission is finally over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well doing the project itself is pretty fun in a sick and perverted way... think 6 hours of sleep in 3 days...but there is a sense of liberation a huge one in fact when you get over and done with it... I'm happy in more ways than one oh hell make that a million.. I appreciate the life I have now lots.. HAPPY FACE! hahaha even the thought of reading week and exams can't dampen my spirits....hokays so here is the list of other things I want to do before reading week officially starts which is Monday for me ...
1. Trim my hair
2. I have the sudden urge to bake... possibly will do that tomorrow
3. partyy!!!!!!
4. go to the tailors to alter stuff
5. get a new phone

oh and the studio was really messy when we were all rushing the panels for submission.. so I moved the radio set we had somewhere else.. after I cleared the area I went to another area to clear up and saw the radio again and accidentally asked "how come we have so many radios?"

another time I was using the jig saw during architectural construction to cut a piece of wood. after awhile I reached this spot that couldn't be cut, because the jig saw couldn't cut through and I thought it was because the wood had impurities or something and I asked for help... and my friend had to tell me it was because the wire was caught in the corner of the table thats why it couldn't be extended to cut further... hahaha zomg right

hokays off to eat dinner... super hungry....

damn it......

2008-04-13T03:13:44Z

2008-04-09T05:55:09Z

hahah I can't wait for summer to come... like seriously...... been bogged down with tons of work. I foresee myself not getting any sleep in the coming week. I foresee myself panicking like a bitch to a point of cardiac arrest. I foresee myself falling asleep without any intention to in school at 6 am in the morning. I foresee the studio as my new home for the next week. yes I'm orchestrating my own disintegration, slowly but surely. hahaha ok I'm being so dramatic but I do have lots to do..
1. finish my big site model
2. finish my individual site model
3. complete the mock up model of my design
4 complete four A1 panels
5. complete my real model

summer plans!!!:
1. melbourne with the girls!
2. kim's coming back!!

zomg lyn and rox complained so here is the second update... I don't really have anything to update on... just the usual has been happening... caught august rush which was kinda predictable and cheesy but happy and feel good nonetheless.... step up to was kinda cool with a slightly lame storyline... and 10,000BC was not too bad.. just alright... picture mammoths charging and bumping around... wow that was kinda like a movie review eh... I have quite a lot of things to do though here it is:
1. Find an old chinatown shophouse floor plan, analyse its proportions and spaces
2. sketch and study surrounding facades of my chosen site, find what can be extracted to take note of in my design
3. Find out the living conditions, traditions and activities that took place in these shophouses in the past
4. do my asia and the modern world essay
5. work on my group site model
6. work on my individual site model

sooo gotta get down to doing it now... looking forward to the weekend.... I mean like duh... who doesn't right?

class update

2008-03-10T09:55:38Z

ok I'm in class/studio updating my blog... its kind of a first for me.... heh lyn's influence... tsktsk.... well its time for an update anyways (: but everyone seems to be busy researching... SAD FACE... but I'll give you a glimpse!
shhhh........ ruyu is doing work....

everyone! do not disturb her!

she thought I was crazy...... hahaha okok back to work... byeeeee

waste of timeee

2008-02-27T05:03:27Z

so this is how it all went down... I was walking along the roads in Melaka on the last day when my bottle which I forgot to cap leaked very badly... my handphone got wet and ceased to work... upon getting back to Singapore, I went to the Samsung service centre at Plaza Singapura and waited for more than half an hour with a queue number.. Finally I see my queue number flash, I go to the counter and actually lie that I don't know what happened to the phone it just doesn't work... the dude just plugs in a cable to charge the phone and it magically worked... I was speechless and bashful and not to mention felt downright stupid, laughing in disbelief as I tried to make a quick retreat...

2008-01-08T06:08:43Z

ahhhhhhhhhhh sad face ): my mac crashed on me.... the mac service centre called to tell me that they found water inside... which is nonsense... the only reason I can think of water being in there is because of condensation... which is insignificant... sooooo I'll just have to wait and see... blahhhhhhh

I wish time would come to a standstill and I could be in this time forever
not having to grow up, having loads of fun...
nevertheless! the future awaits us

3rd December 2007: I went to post prom was great seeing everyone again (:

Lynette and I (she had a camera)

5th December 2007: I met debby!! we had our usual dose of walking around town aimlessly enjoying each other's comapny.... gee makes us sound like old women eh?? It was great because I hadn't seen her in a really really long time.... after which I met the girls for dinner and then we headed for mambo... ting ABANDONED us... hahaha she is so going to kill me for that... and because I met one half of the cam whoring duo (sam), the other being lyn, I have pictures! so here goes.......

7th December 2007: I brought my own camera out! yes you heard that right... hahaha but being the pig I am I only have a few measly pictures... I met laura in the afternoon for lunch and stuff... we didn't catch a movie because I was fussy... heh sorry laura we can watch a movie of your choice next time just as long as it isn't scary ok! which is all she wants to watch really but but yeah..... it was fun hanging out because I hadn't seen her in a long time either despite being in the same school... then it was MOS at night

this is the only picture that I have of myself that night but yeah...

darren looking emo and aaron TRYING to pout....

contrary to popular belief, I wasn't trying to take a picture of the girl behind but of jan trying to shuffle... quite funny how the picture turned out though... hahaha

8th December 2007: I met up with the girls again! (: we watched the movie Full of it it was spastic funny but only watch it if you're desperate and have nothing else to watch...

after meeting Jan, Chun, Hugh, we sat around thinking of something to do for the longest time......... so guess what?? instead of heading down to zoukout we went prawning... hahaha
bait

and guess what!!!!!! I caught a prawn!!! hahaha it was fun really (: I may have discovered some hidden talent... hahaha q: this is me and my prawn.... chun, hugh and sam caught prawns too!

Jan didn't catch any

I spent the 9th, 10th and today at home reading, resting and slacking because i've been going out sooooo much... hahaha that is it for nowwww (:
PS : vic is back!! and lyn is getting back on wednesday (: (:

2007-11-29T04:52:13Z

exams are over!!!! hahahaha sososososososooooooo happy! for some reason, I am even happier than when the A's ended... or maybe I just forgot the feeling... zouk yesterday was quite fun but all the girls didn't go because they still have exams... I'm the only one who has ended so with that said I don't have a single picture...

haha ok finally another update... it was dan kong's birthday last weekend! went to doug's first then to zouk where everyone got reasonably high... in a good way (: t'was fun...

aside from thattttt I have been studying or trying to study for my exams with lyn... we go to coffee bean and after studying for really long hours in earnest I go stand at lyn's table and we start talking.... afterwhich I proceed to pull a chair to sit down so that we can continue our conversation and this is what she said "when you sit down I know I'm fucked" ..... hahahaha cos then we start a whole round of chit chat which could essentially last for eons.... but I prefer to think I'm doing her a favour because at least she is awake right?? otherwise she studies like this:

hahahaha I took that secretly.....
okok I have to go back to physics, which I am utterly clueless about... just shoot me right here right now!!!!! hahaha ok byeeee

long overdue!

2007-11-11T11:55:19Z

ok so I waited till everyone uploaded their pictures and stole all of it! muahahah... I just can't bring myself to take my camera out and take pictures... just as well since my friends really are in fact cam whores... (:
ok I didn't resize these pictures to smaller ones so that you can better see Jwong behind... apparently we had a serious case of dracula...

If you look closely, jan is carrying my bag.... hahaha how gay

ok that is the gist of it! trust me you have been spared there were almost like millions... hahaha ok I have to go study exams are coming up... can't wait for it to be over!!!!!!!!!!!! omgomgomg... hahaha the exams haven't even started and I'm already excited for the post exams... but hey aren't we all

2007-10-29T16:19:38Z

The past weekend was fun (: got time to finally meet all my favourites after being MIA... we first went to Haji Lane, which is filled with quaint little looking vintage stores that were really lovely, I guess its the novelty of it, after all it is kind of my first time shopping there. My first time with Del doesn't really count because there were a minimal number of stores open given the time we were there.

we proceeded to having Thai food at Purvis street with Jan, Medhi and Daryl, which was really good and cheap. After that we went to Muse Bar to hang and chill for awhile, quite a nice place. we purchased these cute little tiaras which came with drinks.

Rox and I went with Medhi, Jan and Daryl to Zouk's Halloween thing in the end because I decided to make the most of my time out!

oh and I met germaine and she was so insane...hahaha but cool nonetheless

ok that is it for now gotta get back to work
