I'm talking about this.



At first, I don't really believe in the so-called jinx or curse. But coming to the 3rd week of the World Cup and seeing my favourite team Portugal (*sobz* My Fabio Coentrao!!!) out of the game... I can't NOT see this in a different light.

France disgracefully out of the way.
Ronaldinho not selected to the team.
Italy, knocked out.
Wayne Rooney, booed by his fans.
Cristiano Ronaldo, not much of use as a captain and oust by *curse it* Spain.

This ad just reeks of puuuuuure bad karma...

It's evil.

Believe it or not!

Aaah. The memories =)

For one thing. I'll love to see a movie about Brain finally taking over the world and he wakes up, realising that whatever happened was just a dream. And I'll like to know whatever happened to Miss Pink Ranger actress and Mr Green Ranger actor too. Hahaha.. Think I'll google them up.

What about you, my fellow 90's kid? Which part of the video do u miss the most?

I feel like.. I wanna take many many many photos with my friends while I ... still look like a human..

Even penguins know the importance of capturing precious moments =)

The first goal

I: Yes! Goal (punches my fat pudgy arm into the fake air.)
Bro: What the f***? What are they doing? How can they let in a goal?

After the red card given to the French player, Yoann Gourcuff (who is quite cute),

I: Oh no, the S.Africa player is lying there not moving. The cute guy is checking on him sia. So nice and gentleman of him. *swoons*
Bro: ... ... (moments of silence)
I: wa... Say something.
Bro: (Chanting the same string of words) I'm so disappointed with France. I'm so disappointed with France. (and as he says that, his pitch and tone gets higher and weirder.)
I and Bro: (Moments of absolute silence, with the vuvuzela buzzing loudly in the background)
I: Er... Do you want me to change to the Mexico match instead?
Bro: Yes.

When S.Africa almost goal in with a free kick,

Bro: NO!
Mom: *Smacks* I almost got heart attack!

When S.Africa got in with the second goal,

Bro: NOOOOOOOOOOO!
I: Yes!
Bro: Why you say yes? Nooooooooo...

When S.Africa got in with the third goal,
I: Yes!
Bro: Yes!
I: (Look at him crazily)
Bro: It's offside, offside, offside!! OFFSIDE!!!! (roars)

In the end, France lost.
Poor thing, he looked so dejected during the entire match.

He's even more interesting today. Ha!

Ever read a book that you picked up out of curiosity because of all the hype and rave reviews about it, and then regret your decision?

Nope, I'm not talking about the silly "Twilight" series. (Because I was never curious about gross vampire paranormal stories)

Try "Pretty little liars". It's a novel series.

I still cant believe I picked it up.

Now, I'm paying it back.

Word of caution: Read it if you dare...

I remember hugging Winnie the Pooh to sleep last night. But when I woke up, it was stranded at the bottom of my feet and I was hugging Snoopy 0__0??

PS: My theory is that Snoopy got jealous, kicked Winnie out of my hands and replaced his position ^__^
PPS: Wait, Winnie the Pooh is a "he" right?




Friends who dedicate picture like this to me deserve all the good sugary things in life. Karma level for Miss Tiffany Cheok = up, Up, UP! ^__^


Portugal will win North Korea. I made a bet with my brother. It involves household chores. I dun wanna lose.


Some idiot called me at 7:21AM, den 7:41AM. Guess what I did the second time round? I push the talk button, heard the hello, and I cut the call.

That was how pissed off I was.

Den I looked at the number. It was from the job agency, probably to tell me about my payment.

Now who's the idiot.

Don't u dare point fingers at *siam away* ______________ (fill in the blank)


While the train is going through the tunnel, in that few seconds to minutes of darkness, if you held your breath long enough and make a wish at the end of the tunnel, your wish will come true.
I wanna try that. But I dun take trains wor. And there's none in Singapore I think. Oh wait, does MRT count? Probably not, cos it doesn't go dark in the tunnel. hmmmmm.. If not, I could try it at the one at Bukit Gombak station area. Hahaha..

When I go traveling then... Take an old-fashioned train and do just that ^ o ^

Get me this.... And I'll hate u for the rest of .... like 20 years time ^__^''


PS: I just find this repulsive that's all.

PPS: But seriously.. Why and how would anyone perform with this ON STAGE??

PPPS: Agree?

Maybe I'm too used to sudden changes in plans cos of the constant improvising of events that occurs out of nowhere. I used to think that it's because of my poor prediction skills and/or my ability to plan ahead, with plus-minus situations and buffering time included.

Imagine my surprise when I did not feel the frustration of a plan gone wayward this morning. There's no cursing in my head. Racking my brain for alternatives to make everything right. Everything just went... Smoothly.

Had breakfast at Mac, hotcakes with sausage. A little drizzle there, cool though. Cos I had my umbrella, ella ella, eh, eh, eh... Finished my breakfast at the designated time, 6.30AM, strolled to the bus stop singing "七里香". Reached piano teacher's house at 7:55AM.

It feels good really. To be able to carry out plans according to schedule. Just wished more of my life unrolls itself accordingly too.

Fat hope. (Literally, just look at my size. Hahahaha ^__^'' )

Hi, let me introduce my newest pet that my Aussie gang got me.

Introducing...... Cuola Cuola!



First, Cuola Cuola is stuck with yellow ken-ken buckeroo at the bottom of the desk.



Then, the brave Cuola Cuola frantically climbs up.



Look! He even tries to camouflage into my grey jeans.



Too bad, he still gets caught in the end.. ^__^



And he prays for forgiveness.



Yup.. That's practically my day at work. So bored that I entertain myself with a koala bear. 3 more days... And I can finally sleep in!

I think...

I'm just not bloody good at studying.

2Cs and the rest Bs.... Not even one freaking A- to console my poor heart. Out of the 4 semesters, I've only gotten so far like 1 A. And that's even not related to any English or Music modules.

Wait... Recalling back to my diploma year, all my As werent Musically related anyway.

I believe I've never gotten a freaky A for any music modules at all. Went to check, and I'm right.

OMG!

Have I chosen the wrong path??? Maybe I'm not meant to teach Music after all. What if I kill or poison the students with my mediocre knowledge music education? What if I sucked and the students find out? My whole teaching career is over!!!!

And for my English? Sigh..... Maybe I should have chosen History instead? Maybe I could have gotten a few As.........

Bleah.. Stupid English.

Well.. I admit. I was kinda depressed for a while. Then, I remembered my dad telling me to look for my strengths... I went and dig for that. None. Looked at my diploma results. Surprisingly, I think I found it. For all music modules, they were a definite B. But the rest, were As.... Especially ICT, without Shufeng's help, I wouldnt have gotten it. But the rest, group work plus essay all got me A- ...

Whew... At least I know my path now. Definitely not in music education. Well, not that I dun like or dun want to teach music anymore. I still do. Just that I found my strengths somewhere else like Education Psychology in General and topics related to sociology somehow.

Oh well.. No use remembering the old days. Time to look forward and hope that my last semester will get better. In quality and in grades.

HA! NOT POSSIBLE! Cos of YOG, semester is all screwed up.. What der......

I should just sleep over it, like I always do.

After 4 and 1/2 days of proper office work,

I come to realise that teaching is still the best.

I'm so glad I chose the right profession for me.

But on the bright side..... I get to sit down and not move the entire day in an air-con room. I get to stare at the computer screen whole day. The job is pretty simple and requires zero skills and PR tactics which suits me to a perfect T. PLUS! I get to do overseas assignments. Since I'm stuck in Singapore cos I'm a cheapo with no money to spend on traveling, it's projects like this that gets me out of boredom. I get to travel with my always overwhelming imagination. I dun get to see the actual scenery. But it's good to hear and listen to the real ordinary people of that country. Feel the difference between your country and theirs through their telephone numbers. Difference in culture through their accents of English.

It just make me realise that... Singapore is freaking small. Our telephone numbers are like so not long. Yet, I cant rmb many combinations of them. Whenever I make overseas calls, the numbers are at least 12 digits long. So it goes "tu-tu-tu-tu-tu-tutututututututu-tuuuuuuu" . But let me make it clear, I like my freaking small country. Cos traveling is simpler and so much easier and everything is more organised =)

But one thing I can do without is the holding tune. I'm sick and tired of listening to the same one. I can even tell u which company uses which system and which system uses which composers and songs as their holding tune. Erlack. There's one interesting holding tune system though. Let's say the operator puts me on hold and the tune starts then maybe it got transferred to someone else and that person transfers me to the right person (like finally!)), during the wait and hold, the tune will actually start when it had stopped! It was super AMAZING!!! Well cos that's the first kind that I had come across. The others just start from the top. *Yawn* Boring.

Oh well.. Enough of work. I'm not supposed to say much cos I signed the disclosure agreement. So anyway now that I'm properly working... I cant wait for the weekend to be here!!!
