So, went back to BHSS for Teacher's Day... Quite disappointing because almost half the teachers are new. Form teacher Ms Lim was sick at home so me and Hazzy didn't get to see her at all. Only said Hi to Mrs Raj our English teacher and somehow we have to go back to BHSS on Thursday and Friday because some of the students want to do a domino like ours back in 2006. Copycats. Idea stealers. The two of us are supposed to guide them along on how to do it and offer suggestions and feedback on their domino. Arghhh... Couldn't say no to a teacher right?

Anyway here are some photos from the 2006 CNY domino we made:























Are you impressed? I hope so because that took alot of hard work... =) Good old days.

Haven't been doing much these few days except study for exam on Wednesday. Went for family gathering at my cousin's new condo on Sunday to visit her 1 year old son. The usual family talk, updates in our lives and "Your baby is soooooo cute!!"...hahaha. Met baby for dinner last night..Xin Wang Cafe at North Point. Haven't been there for quite a while and the place has really changed quite a bit. I was really stuffed after dinner so we took a long walk to Bottle Tree Park where we took some nice photos with the light from sunset.

Hope I really do well for my paper on Wednesday. I know I haven't been exactly hardworking during class but I've spent the last one week studying and I think I really know my stuff. After that paper, I get semi freedom!! September holidays have to go back to school for FYP but I can work night shifts!! =) Really hope the money is going to get better. 2 months of hard work should be good for my health and my bank account. Hahahaha.

Sorry people...no photos for the time being!! The pictures are with the missus as usual...when she posts it I'll have them up here as well.

That's all for now. =D

Art from the heart. =)

Fresh from the oven:



Pictures say a thousand words. This piece of art from the heart does not need to say anything. =)

Wow!! Went out with baby yesterday and I think that was one of the most fun dates ever. Definitely within my top 10 list. Hahahaha...we walked around Ion at Orchard for the most part of the day. Had a very very nice lunch there...very good food at the basement I must say. Walked around the basement levels and I bought a T-shirt from Zara, $16.90. Then we strolled over to Heeren to check out more shops before taking a train from Somerset to City Hall. Horrible things happened at Somerset and I have to say this is definitely one of the most unlucky things that has happened to us. Don't want to talk about it though.

We got to City Hall and walked to Marina Square to catch Orphan at 6.30pm. Pretty good movie with good acting, a good plot and good twists to the ending. I'll leave you a teaser: It's not your usual ghost movie. Anyway, headed back to AMK straight away hoping to collect the something which she dropped off earlier in the afternoon. The shop was about to close when we got there so we were like the last customer of the day. Hahahaha..sorry folks..can't say what it is..

Headed over to S-11 to have a late dinner...very nice claypot chicken with rice. A little salty but very very tasty..woooo!! Then I sent her home by 11pm and took a bus back home.

Long day. Tired legs. But very happy. =)

Wooooooo!!! Relaxing Tuesday it has been....just slept in late, watched tv shows on my laptop, went down to workplace to get my pay cheque before heading back home for dinner. After dinner went to baby's place to surprise her when she got home and send her up.

Pretty slack slack day. Tomorrow morning's classes are optional so I'll be sleeping in late again....wooooohooooo!!! One paper to study for only...test date is somewhere in the last week of August then after that partial freedom during the holidays =) Going to work as much as I can and I have to go back to school from time to time to make sure my project is making progress.

This Saturday going out with her again... =) I've got a couple of surprises in store for her...hehehe..hope she likes it!! Can't wait!! =)

Well...NDP has come and gone. Didn't do much on Sunday..just worked from 12 to 4pm (pathetic 4 hours = $20 + OT), then I headed home to laze around and watch the parade. This year's parade was a little more interesting than last year's especially with those giant grid boxes...lol. It must have been so tiring for the performers to climb up and down the ladders over a hundred times.

I might have to transfer to a quieter outlet soon because my hours have really been cut down. I've only clocked 10 hours this week and to make things worse, the manager keeps bringing in full timers so she can kick out part timers. The operating hours for the Orchard outlet have also been revised to close an hour earlier because of poor sales. Damn you Botak Jones. Actually its damn you Bernie Utchenik (the owner).

Hazzy has been thinking of finding a new job too..and I might just tag along because I could really use better pay. $7/hr at Kinokuniya: Carry books around, tidy up books, recommend books, work in air-con. Who doesn't want that? The only problem is that its really difficult to find another job which is as flexible as Botak Jones.

I'm taking the Monday Public Holiday slowly...I really want to relax and get back my energy before I have to dive into all that project work again. After lunch I'm going to cycle to Toa Payoh Central to buy a stack of blank CDs and then I'm going to really slack at home and just watch movies or TV shows. 3.30pm, I head off to Orchard to pass a CD to a colleague and then go over to Serangoon to pick up my sweetheart from work =)

That's all folks!! Life may be stressful right now but someone makes everything so worth it =)

For you:

Change is on the way. Just as I promised. =)

Working hard at my project now.

I miss you badly.

You can say those words for the rest of my life,
and I'll never get tired of hearing them. =)

I Love you.

But you already know that don't you? =)

Quick post before I get back to studying for Biomedical Applications. Been so busy the past few days...nothing but school and work and I haven't had the chance to see my precious. School is really stressing me out...I have a test on Wednesday and on top of that my final panel review for my FYP is on Friday. I have to prepare my powerpoint presentation and finalise my designs and every detail on how its going to work has to be explained. Purchase order forms must be filled up and be prepared for approval. Buy raw plastics, lead screws, bolts, nuts. Have to machine and fabricate a prototype on Wednesday after my test so the judges have an idea on how it looks like before working on the product itself.

Woke up early this morning to machine my prototype but when I reached school, the Techincal Support Officer (TSO) told me to come back on Wednesday because he was going out for lunch soon. Damn pissed off...I mean he's being very nice and helpful already. He recommended several solutions to my project and even offered to help us machine the prototype but I came all the way to school for nothing!! By the way, my supervising lecturer for my FYP is completely useless. I tried to meet him this afternoon to ask him if my calculations were correct and guess what? He was at home sleeping. Goddamnit. My group is totally on our own.

Waiting for her to get back home from East Coast. She still hasn't recovered from ther sore throat...poor thing. I really hope she'll see a doctor tomorrow if it doesn't get any better...I'm really starting to worry.

Okay...back to studying...I really was hoping to pick her up from school tomorrow but I have to study for my test with my classmate after work. Shit this timetable, shit this FYP and shit all the viruses and bacteria and germs in this world who make people sick.
