I'm back (for now.....)

I've nothing to write. at least, i'm not in thinking mode for now. This is because of a few things.

1. I haven't had coke for like two weeks (eh.. the without ice version)
2. I just ended a very tiring 4 weeks of work. Why is this more tiring than the last few months? This is so because I have to plan a performance for Xmas party for my office. The story goes: People in my office decided that Xmas party celebration in the mid of Dec would be fun and would have more people attending. However, this was (in my opinion) wishful thinking on their parts. Not that I do not support the idea, just that it could be improved. They said that the people in the office would be divided into 5 groups with each group being in charged of a theme -- they gave us 5 themes, ranging frm 1940s to 2000. There would be 3 parts to the competition, namely, Decor, Santa and Performance. So my group was in charged of the 1980s -- Mambo Jambo theme. The era of loud colours and "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"-like songs. A lot of planning is needed, and a lot of support from my team mates are required to ensure success. Did I mentioned I was the group lead? Ya. So I'm very lucky to have a group of pretty supportive team mates (save for one, but as that is a nonetity, he's not worth a mention) and everything worked out fine. We lost to the first group by 1 point. But all agreed they deserved the win. Anyway, this sapped most of my energy.
3. Lastly, I'm have a very bad tummy these few days. Probably coz i've been working too many OTs and having dinners at 10pm everyday, and it's giving me some digestive system problems.

But anyway, the performance was great fun. My group had loads of fun, but to be honest, it is not something which i wanna do next year or anytime soon. I just need lots of rest and sleep. Not been sleep well too, because of my tummy problems. But hope everything works out soon. Yawn. I need to catch up on sleep BADLY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh gosh... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..........

I wanna buy a new flute too. but it is going to set me back by at least S$1k. I have to find ways to "give birth" to the money. ok lah. i can see steam coming out of my head from overworking it typing this blog. time to go rest...... zzz..............

Good news

Gary came over yesterday. And we talked about all kinds of things. One of them is about this PSP that our brothers recently aquired.

He mentioned he wanted to get a PSP too. For us. And if i'm not wrong I have to be the one to do some "research" for it. Things like where to get the best bargain, the available colours (6 of them - black, ceramic white, pink, metallic blue, silver, and champagne gold - but they are not all available in Singapore though. Think the champaign gold version is not available here.. I'm not too sure.)

Well, since he said he'll buy one for us, I'll just have to patiently wait till the day he has the time to buy for us.

public transportation

for the last few months i've been struggling on the CROWDED train! WTH......... typical singaporeans. it's just frustrating. out of curiosity, why don't people just move in when they board the stupid train....

When I was overseas, i never hear annoucements telling people to move in "to the centre of the car". Pretty funny right??? ah well.. just like that lo.

Actually i'm pretty tired to complain le la. I just wanna break in my new pink keyboard that's all.. and i got nothing better to say apart from what i see everyday.

Ok time for me to go to bed and rest. I got a pretty bad flu....

Courses I wanna take (if i have the time)

I was surfing the People's Association website today. I am NOT using company's time to do that. In fact, my office is closed today and I am typing this bloggie in the comforts of my own home's computer area (the place where I put my computer.. duh...............).

Anyway, I saw a few courses which I would like to take IF i have the time. Here's the list:

1. Guzheng
2. Chinese Orchestra (where they allocate you the Chinese Orchestra instrument)
3. Japanese Drum
4. Piano (from Lowrey Music School)
5. Violin

Yep, all instruments. Haha. I haven't lost interest in music even though I lost that somewhat in Uni. I think the absence of certain person have allowed the revival of the interest in me. At least music is no longer commercialised as it was when I was in University. Kinda hate it when everything's about commercialisation, and making it to the publications, newspapers, etc. Doesn't help that I am very different from those people in the group. So I left the group in Year 3, after I stepped down from the committee. Enough's enough i think. But well, i want to pick it up again, though not in the same sense. Still hope that I can master the many many instruments. I love learning new instruments. Make me feel knowledgable,............ kekekekeke hahahahaha

Selamat Hari Raya peeps!

update?? update wat???

i was told to update again.. update wat???

i dunno wat to write leh.... (after 5 mins of thinking).............. (another 5 min of thinking)... ok.. i think i know.. wahahahaha..

Gary just bought a new (well relatively new.. he got it a few weeks ago) game called Catan (the card game version). Let me give you a little insight to the game. It is a settlement development game. The aim is to get 12(base) or 13(expansion) victory points. For more details, refer to http://www1.freewebs.com/curry-pot/cardgaming2.htm --> Gary's webby.

Here's the score as of 30 Sep 07:

• Base game: Candice (3) Gary (a big FAT 0)
• Expansion: Candice (nil) Gary (2)

haha. I am so lousy at the expansion. Probably because I am really not sure how to use all the extra cards. haha.. but well.. at least he's good at something!!! heeheehee... wahahahahahah..

The cost of a good game (S$80), a good place to play in (S$4 - my travel expenses), the thrill of winning Gary again and again (PRICELESS!!!)

Gary ranks the games in his blog. But because he is so lousy at this game, I think his game score is really biased. So I shall provide a more objective ranking for THIS game in my blog too.

• Time requirement: 8/10 (can take pretty long sometimes)
• Ease of beating Gary (base game): 11/10 (i've never lost to his before)
• Ease of beating Gary (expansion): 7/10 (i've never beaten him before.. but the score's getting closer.. so i'll beat him someday)
• Replayability factor : 12/10 (I don't mind winning him all the time in something..)

wahahahaha..
