    hello

    oh my goodness, jesus christ, guan ying niang niang, pu sa, ne zha, ti gong, dua beh gong, islamic god, Indian god, Elephant god !


    yesterday midnight that car crash accident across my flat really gave me an heart attack !! don't know lele got hear it ornot ... okay probably not, she must been sleeping like a babi. haha
    (I asked mom this morning if she heard anything, but she said no! FUUUNNY .. she can always hear the soft raindrop tiptapping but not this LOUD car crash. Hua hua hua~~)


    It's SUPER DUPER LOUD!! louder than the thunder storm !!
    that moment I thought I was dreamin' of myself sitting in some friend's car, driving around some place ... and then suddenly
    *BING BIANG BONG CRASSSHHHH*


    wth .. I INSTANTLY jumped up from my bed in FRIGHT.
    damn it. I almost thought something really happened to me or some world war occurring or some alien invasion.
    god bless me, I still want to live longer.


    for some moment, I was afraid to get up and look out of my window. it's really scary lah that crashing sound.

    *heart thumping loudly*

    soon, many of my neighbours from above & below my unit, all opened their window and start talking loudly, so it's quite disturbing that I decided to take a peep.



    whoa.
    that fella's car flew from one end of the road to the opposite side road, crashing across that metal fencing !! he basically flew out and lied motionlessly on the road with a small crowd gathering around him. the loud ambulance came in no time.

    tsk. poor fella. Hope he'll be alright :((


    this is my don't-no-how-many-times, seeing car crash accidents with my own eyes, especially on that road across my flat. I think it's quite haunted leh. I can count more than 8 or 10 car accidents on this same road. that fence don't know ruin how many freakin' times already.
    friends who're driving pass there, do becareful yea !!



    PS: sorry to those friends who tried contacting me through my mobile phone for the past few days. It's temporarly down !! :((

    hello

    Updates !

    yesterday evening was somehow irritating.
    I kinda got lost walking in Raffles .. and then I asked A FEW security guards and passerbys for direction. NONE of them know where's that fcukin' building was.
    and then there's this security telling me "I not sure of the building's name ... but you walk behind this building.. that's the street that you are referring to"


    okaaaay,
    so I followed his direction .. and walk to the street behind.



    ahem.


    once I've reached, I find it very wierd, so I asked another person,
    and he told me: "no .. i think is walk frontwards of this street"


    OIE.

    so is FRONTWARDS or BACKWARDS !??!
    (-____-)






    waste time.
    ahh my legs were already like gonna break any moment and my feets got blisters, thanks to my high heels. How I wish there's someone driving me around to look for the damn building.



    *shrugged*


    end up, I got pissed off by those people who gave me wrong directions and I gave up looking for the building. damn, this is the first time I couldn't find a place/ building. perhaps xxxxx company gave me the wrong address again! It's not like their first time giving me wrong info on the address, so I'm not surprised yea. zzzz








    in the end, I went down earlier to pwc to wait for tingting, for our dinner meet.
    thanks for the BBQ Meat. haha :)
    and then we walk AIMLESSLY from Raffles to ChinaSquare to ClarkeQuay.
    shop. eat. shop. eat.





    I ask you peeps,
    What if I've dyed my hair to ................
    this color?? LOL

    hello

    miss wita and I were argueing over Sakura Buffet justnow. haha weird!
    we were choosing location for the upcoming buffet outing together with miss aisyah. heh .... and then I was asking her which outlet is halal.
    so we googled.
    and this is where we started argueing over. HAHAHAHA!



    me: Orchard not Halal la sister !

    her: isit?

    me: u check that weblink that i gave u


    her: how come i read before saying its halal

    me: there halal hotline / nonhalal hotline

    her: oi! halal la

    me: WHERE O.O

    me: from what I saw, Only got three halal.

    her: gt SIX halal LA

    me: SIX is Non halal! three is Halal

    her: NO, HOW U SEE. HAHA i see got 6 under halal hotline !

    me: i see got 3 under halal hotline

    her: can u print screen for me, i see



    so this is what I printscreened on my compuer:

    hello


    damn.
    I feel really really upset for 周初明! :((((
    he was in the church yesterday (and today) to convene a press conference that he'd seek treatment several times, afterwhich, was confirmed that he has been diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (肌肉萎缩症), an incurable disease where a sufferer's muscles waste away.
    hearing upon such news is like a bomb droppin' from no where.
    life is indeed too fragile.
    虽然说要勇敢去面对一切, 必定是很难的事,
    但无论如何, 我们都要尽量去乐观面对.

    I believe what we could do for him now,
    is to all pray for him!
    so, everyone who knows or don't know him,
    do pray for him yea ?
    I believe God will bless him.

    look to each day as something to be looked forward to,
    a gift.






    1 year ago's on Xmas EVE,
    we had X'mas party at rmaine's house :)
    it was indeed a memorable one to me, because it's my First X'mas party/gathering in Singapore with a group of wonderful friends which I've go to know :)


    1 year ago seems just like yesterday.





    us



    1 year is indeed FAST.
    cheerios to:
    thumb, toe, shin, wrist, mingming, seany, brainy, ahjun, twin, lele, dennis, jade .. etc etc

    Happy 1 year of friendship !! LOVED! :D


    this time round....
    Off to Brainy's House for our 2nd X'mas Party tonight !!
    Party & celebrate & eat like nobody business



    "Yayness, gonna be in my house yo!"








    to alex,
    ALL the best for tonight's X'mas Carol performance at SAM okay!!
    I give you Moral support !! 精神上的支持! hahaha!
    jiayou ba! :D

    hello

    back with .......


    Vancouver B.C - 13th to 27th September




    PART 3





    beautiful Sunrise ! :D




    Chinatown



    This is North America's second biggest Chinatown, after San Francisco's. Mandarin and Cantonese are the mother tongues in 30 per cent of Vancouver homes, which makes Chinese the largest "minority" ethnic group. There are lots of interesting markets with many varieties of fresh and dried seafood and mushrooms. You'll also find inexpensive houseware and traditional Chinese medicine.


    During the summer, on weekend evenings, Keefer and Pender Streets become a busy open-air night market. If you have time for a leisurely meal, try dim sum at one of the many small restaurants. It is an inexpensive, multi-course culinary adventure. Relax in the peaceful Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden, or marvel at the ornate Millennium Gate - just steps away on Pender Street. Visit the Chinese Cultural Centre Museum, or participate in one of its many activities.




    breakfast at 大班茶餐厅


    "harrr gaoooo .... sieeewwww maaaaii .... bolor baoooo" LOL



    中华门
    the ornate Millennium Gate, Chinese Cultural Centre Museum;




    Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden






    Lunch at our All-Time-Favourite ...
    金菊园 !


    trust me, you gotta come over here to eat if you go Vancouver's Chinatown.
    so far for Years, this is one of the BEST roast duck/meat rice restaurant I've ever had. best in canada! :D





    pardon my camera. no auto-focus.. so the food looks kinda dull
    -_-





    the very long sightseeing bus. haha




    Gas Town

    Gastown is an area of Vancouver, British Columbia, located at the northeast end of Downtown adjacent to the Downtown Eastside. Its historical boundaries were the waterfront, Columbia Street, Hastings Street, and Cambie Street, which were the borders of the first townsite survey, the proper name and postal address of which was Granville


    Gastown is a refreshing mix of old and new, downhome and upscale, a place for tourists, Vancouver residents and office workers alike. Various shops have the streets buzzing during the day. A host of restaurants and nightspots keeps the area humming into the wee hours. And, more and more, Gastown is becoming home to permanent residents… just like in the old days! :)



    heh, the clock is unique in the sense that, it moves by gas, not battery or electricity!!
    If I ain't wrong, when every hour strikes, the clock will give a lovely chime with gas smoking out.




    that's all for now,


    Part 4 on Victoria Island Up Soon! :)

    PART 2





    I think this is Day 3 of the trip? :P
    my memory's kinda failing, pardon me. haha

    "good day! how're you today? english breakfast tea for you miss?

    Scumptious Breakfast at the cosy Denny's Restaurant. our all-time-favourite :))
    not only at denny's ... but at all others restaurants as well, I liked their good services.
    you really feel at home.


    anyway if you ever be in western countries, don't be shock with the food servings.
    it's like HUGEEEE. american size
    for those with small appetites, I think you can even share a meal with 1 or 2 other people with you.



    no wonder I was fat the last time.




    *cough*





    my aunt. mom. me. pop




    Egg Benedict Set



    my Mix and match of 4 side dish.
    in the photo you only see 3 side dish. you must be wondering where's the 4th one.
    it's on the other plate ..... 2 huge pancakes !
    (err that equivalent to Singapore macdonald's 4 pancake!)
    >.<




    drive crossing over Lion Gate, to the other side of Vancouver B.C.




    you notice that Cruise-like building over there?
    mind you, that's Pan Pacific hotel. pretty structure!




    here we off to ..........



    Stanley Park



    Stanley Park is recognized around the globe as one of the great parks of the world! Vancouver's first park and one of the city's main tourist attractions, Stanley Park is an evergreen oasis close to the downtown core. Its natural west coast atmosphere offering a back drop of majestic cedar, hemlock and fir trees embraces visitors and transports them to an environment rich in tranquility. The park abounds in wildlife and its features appeal to the naturalist, the plant lover or one who would do nothing more than relax in beautiful surroundings.





    the famous Red Indian Wood Carvings




    Civet Cats roaming around.
    beware! They Bite !!



    haha, I took the risk to get an upclose shot.





    The Peak view




    that bridge over there is Lion Gate, the one which we crossed over earlier on.






    Vancouver Aquarium




    crossing back to Lion Gate !





    Next up,




    Grouce Mountain



    we actually wanted to go over to Whistler, but driving there takes 2+hours, and pop was kinda tired... so in the end we went over to grouce mountian instead.
    It's all the same :)







    during late november onwards, the whole of whistler/ grouce mountain will be covered with THICK SNOW, and this is where fun comes in ......


    SKIING / SNOWBOARDING / SNOW FIGHTS / ICE SKATE




    this time round,
    we came in two months earlier to avoid the snowing period, so of course there aren't snowing but acorns and Autumn leaves falling everywhere.


    queueing for cable car ride





    "oie.. I spotted our car !!"




    way up and up



    nature beauty




    Up Mountain Peak !



    visit to: Grizzly Bear Habitat




    ROAARRR !



    The Grizzly Bear, also known as the Silvertip Bear, is a subspecies of brown bear that lives in the uplands of western North America.
    Grizzlies are normally solitary active animals, but in coastal areas the grizzly congregates alongside streams, lakes, rivers, and ponds during the salmon spawn. A sow is very protective of her offspring and will attack if she thinks she or her cubs are being threatened.








    The LumberJack Show !


    in case you ain't know what's a Lumberjack,
    A lumberjack or logger is a man who harvests lumber. It usually refers to a logger from an earlier time before the advent of chainsaws, feller-bunchers and other modern logging equipment.





    everyone got Tanned after sitting over here for a period of time. haha
    one word.
    HAWT !!!





    lumberjacks competiting in chopping logs.




    "ya see my axe hittin' right at the BULL EYE folks! "




    (see)(saw)(sawing)




    to be the best lumberjack, you gotta know how to climb FAST.



    splashin' Fun



    sunset


    Next,




    Capilano River



    The Capilano River, flowing north to south through the Coast Mountains, is located on Vancouver's North Shore, opposite Stanley Park. The river is one of three primary sources of drinking water for residents of Greater Vancouver.



    My educational Salmon Hunt ! :D



    The Capilano has a historic salmon run which was impacted by the dam construction. A hatchery was built 1/2 km downstream of the dam to ensure the survival of the run
    The salmon run is the time at which salmon swim back up the rivers in which they were born to spawn. All Pacific salmon die after spawning. While most Atlantic salmon die after their first spawn, about 5-10% (mostly female) return to the sea to feed between spawnings. The annual run is a major event for sport fisherman.






    different species of salmons




    rearing of baby salmons








    the best DAM thing. heh
    it's still not the season for salmons to swimback to lay eggs, therefore I am unable to capture much photos of salmons jumping upstreams






    Next,




    Capilano Suspension Bridge


    The Capilano Suspension Bridge is one of the greatest suspension bridge crossing the Capilano River in the District of North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The current bridge is 136 metres long and 70 metres above the river.


    Pulses quicken as we step onto the swaying planks of Vancouver's first visitor attraction! Breathe in the cedar-scented rainforest air as we make our way across Vancouver's famous landmark. Capilano Suspension Bridge takes people to the natural splendor of rainforest trails through magnificent evergreens and the unique perspective of Treetops Adventure, a walk high in the trees.









    alrights that's all for now,

    Part 3 Up soon !

    hello

    after the long await!
    here's my update on my trip to Vancouver British Columbia !! :))




    Vancouver B.C - 13th to 27th September


    PART 1


    so yea after my graduation during august, me, my parents and my aunt went over
    to V.B.C to visit our relatives ..etc and also to settle some stuffs.
    gee. after so many years, I took the midnight flight at freakin' 1am again (@.@)
    tell me it's not tiring when you're flying on air for 16+ hours !!!! zzzz

    (oh ya it included transfering of flight between Shanghai Airport. LOL i still remembered I was sitting at the Net bar in the departure hall with friends msning me away: "Where the heck are you now?!" .. while I was waiting for my transfer. haha )



    double yayness.
    the exciting part is ain't going there with my parents .. because I can't get to do/play/shop whereever I want. haha
    the exciting part is I'm flying back again to my used-to-be hometown. and I can't wait to get out of singapore for a getaway from the buzzin' city :D

    it's really a pity dennis gotta enter army on sept ...
    if not I could bring him and catty around V.B.C for a tour :))


    anyway I arrived V.B.C around afternoon 12+pm if I ain't wrong? haha ... for singapore, it's moving one day faster then there.
    when you are at the other side of the world. the timing is totally different, so yea, it needa some time to get yourself adapting to it

    after getting our car, we moved into Blundell road's bungalow which we had our stay.
    susan our landlord is pretty nice. :)



    it's where we stayed.



    cosy living room :)




    dining room




    kitchen





    stairways up to bedrooms and bathrooms





    living room




    my bedroom



    not much of activities during day 1.
    just plain visitings, dining with ben's family .. etc etc etc
    it's been many years since I last saw ben's grandma, grandpa and aunt. heartwarming.
    they can't even recognise me when I walked into the room, and they keep asking uncle stanley : " 这个是诗琪吗?? 长那么大了啊?!!"
    lol. wth




    anyway Day 2.


    Steveston Village
    3811 Moncton Street, Dyke Road and 12138-Fourth Avenue

    IT'S FISH CATCHING YO !

    at the chilly 7 am, we drived down to Steveston Village- Fisherman's Wharf , watched fishermen catching salmons, tunas, codfish, lobsters, prawns ... etc and they sell it at excellent price for such FRESH catch.





    jetty.



    " Aiy Aiy Missy! Tuna for Sale, Fresh Catch ! "



    Cheaaap Jumbo Sardines Catch on Sales



    huge ain't it? haha




    temple visit.
    this is perhaps one of the very few bigger temples you can find in richmond city.







    Queen Elizabeth Park.
    Cambie Street at West 33rd Avenue


    Queen Elizabeth Park is the second most visited park in Vancouver and holds within its perimeters some of the most beautiful public gardens anywhere. Its recreational offerings are diverse ranging from sporty to horticultural and include golf, tennis, lawn bowling, disc golf, an extensive outdoor arboretum and the indoor Bloedel Floral Conservatory.





    PEAK !



    see that semicircle-structured building?
    that's the horticultural area :)





    pardon me, I forgotten their name for it. haha
    but anyway, these species on duck can mostly be found only in canada.




    Gorgeous MAPLE TREE!!


    Maple tree is the national arboreal emblem of Canada.
    as it's autumn, it's season for maple tree's leaves to change color, and then .. process of withering, and soon later there comes snowing.

    you know the maple syrup which you poured onto your delicious pancakes and waffles? yeap, the syrup is made from the sap of the maple tree :)






    evening, diner with my relatives at one of the restaurants.

    you must be wondering where I had my lunch yea?
    I think there's nothing to blog about,
    because usually for lunch, if it's not burger & Fries and Fish&Chips ... it'll always be: "Harrr gaaooo.. Sieewww Maaaiii !!"
    haha





    yup, that's about it.
    Part 2 coming up soon!

    hello




    Happy Birthdaaayy XMin !

    It's Not just a year older, but a year better.
    The more candles, the bigger the wish.
    :D






    yesterday midnight, I was listening to the radio station .. and I heard something pretty hilarious.

    In order for US interrogators TRYING to dig out informations from the Iraqi prisoners , they BLASTED out Loud Music 24 hour for them to listen, hoping that those songs can manage to make those POWs get irritated and endup deciding to tell them everything.
    Psychological torture techniques against these POWs, deprived them of sleep, causing some to knock their heads against the walls and the doors, screaming their heads off.





    Song List being used to played:



    – “Dirrty,” Christina Aguilera
    – “F*ck Your God,” Deicide
    – “Shoot to Thrill,” AC/DC
    – “We are The Champions,” Queen
    – “Born in the USA,” Bruce Springsteen
    – “Babylon,” David Gray
    – “White America,” Eminem


    Others include Aerosmith, Britney Spears, Don McLean, Lil’ Kim, Limp Bizkit, Matchbox 20, Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Tupac Shakur







    nothing amusing yet right?





    ahem.







    the last two song titles which made me cracked up :

    • “Sesame Street” theme song





    • ALL TOGETHER NOW ... !!
      ..
      ..
      ..
      ..
      ..
      ..
      ..
      ..
      ..

      Can you tell me how to get how to get to Sesame Street ?



  • “I Love You,” from “Barney and Friends”


  • They are simple words, plain in meaning and warm in tone: "I love you. You love me. We're best friends like friends should be. With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you, won't you say you love me too?"
    They are also the words with which US military interrogators are planning to break the will of Iraqi prisoners.
    Sound unlikely? Not to parents, who will have recognised the above verse as the opening lines of Barney's favourite song, Barney being a large, purple dinosaur who has the capability - along with what his US home, the Public Broadcasting Service, calls his "ethnically diverse cast of child playmates" - to drive the most iron-willed adult to despair and desperation.



    It's hard to find scientific evidence to back up the US military's faith in the misery-inducing power of the purple dinosaur's greatest hit. It's not hard, however, to find anecdotal evidence. From one Barney-bashing website: "Once anyone over the age of two hears Barney begin belting out that miserable anthem of his - 'I wuv you, you wuv me' - the human dies. It's just that simple." One presumes, then, that the military interrogators are all parents who knew the effects the song would have, but who were themselves inured by prolonged exposure. Either that, or one hopes that the hapless GIs will be issued with personal stereos playing something soothing such as ZZ Top.

    For Barney has become a hate figure in the US. He's hated by those adults who watch the show. And he's hated by those adults who don't watch the show. That's why a group of teenagers beat up a man in a Barney suit in a Texas shopping mall. That's why there's a website for the Jihad to Destroy Barney the purple dinosaur, which describes itself thus: "The Jihad is a heterogeneous organisation of people on the internet dedicated to the defamation, humiliation, eradication, killing and removal of Barney the Purple Dinosaur of the television show Barney and Friends from the airwaves and from every human's life."

    Which is why the Americans are inflicting him on their prisoners.
    Believe me, if Barney had been walking the earth when the Geneva conventions were drawn up, there would be laws against this sort of thing.


    heh enjoy my photoshopped comic.

    had class gathering/ lunch-out yea
    this was my second time going back to Manhattan's restaurant to dine-in ..
    this time round, I was at PS outlet.

    Overview:

    comparing clarke quay outlet & PS outlet -
    as usual, this restaurant is ALWAYS PACKED.
    food quality for both outlets are equally good. friendly staffs, good services.

    clarke quay has abit more ambience as it's facing singapore river. quieter ..
    PS outlet wise ...
    good gathering location in town where everyone can go shopping after dining in the restaurant ... HAHA.. I don't know about other days lah, but since we went there on weekends .. there's alot of gatherings at other tables .. so the noise level is a lil' high. haha





    been quite sometime after months of graduation since I last catchup with them yea.
    not the whole class turned up though, but it's still nice meeting up most of them again, getting to know what's everyone up to lately.



    what's now for everyone?
    Job seekings.
    Working adults.
    University studies.
    Boyfriends.

    Girlfriends.
    Botaks.
    National service.

    actually there's alot of shots ... but all very blur & shattering .. so this's the clearest we can ever get.


    It's like WAR.
    that moment, EVERYONE at the table is TRYING VERY HARD to capture desmond's face with their cameras.
    I even tried whipping out cybershot & attack from under table while ley & mel try to attack from the side with digital cams ....
    still a failure. lol


    seriously ah desmond !! for 3 years in nyp..
    WE NEVER GET TO TAKE ANY PHOTO OF HIM !!
    lastime if take class photo.. he will end up wanting to be the cameraman as he doesn't wants his face to get exposed.
    even if he is ever in any of the photographs ....
    we can NEVER EVER manage to capture his face.
    he will be covering up his face with his long hair or lecture book or anything else he can find ... now in NS, botak already, he use his cap and hand to coverup his face. 我服了你!
    (-_-)


    i think he's probably the worse Camera-Shy person I've ever seen on earth. right siti? HAHA (@.@)




    see what I mean ?!
    when The Manhattan's Staff is helping us to take a group photo..
    desmond's hidding one corner.

    Opening Dance Medley Remix + 《不潮不用花钱》 High Fashion
    enjoy! :)

    每个人都可以有自己对潮流的看法,不需要随波逐流,人云亦云。潮流不一定代表时尚的衣服,而是一个人的成就,除了创造的一切,还有对生命的态度的融合体.







    It was fun learning the 不潮不用花钱 dance steps together with everyone in Max Pavilion.

    《小酒窩》

    the sweet love duet orignally by JJ 林俊杰 ft 阿Sa 蔡卓妍.
    (阿Sa当晚没来合唱, 的确有一些些可惜哦... )






    最令动容的情歌.........

    《我還想她》

    这一封来自歌迷的真实故事的转述,JJ用音符抚慰这位歌迷一段“未能完成的学生之爱”! 优美的旋律加上JJ具有穿透力又深情的唱腔时,常让人一听就会把歌深深烙印在心里。在这首歌,回忆着一段单纯又无悔的恋爱,当木讷寡言的男孩遇上敢爱敢恨的女孩,没有办法替女孩解决什么问题,只能静静的在屋顶上陪她看着天空或是骑着单车到两人初识的那棵大树下,随意谈天、聊聊校园生活…,一场意外,这段感情突生变化,却还是深深的埋藏在女孩的心里










    beautiful bubble effects flying about the whole stage :)))





    《醉赤壁》


    《醉赤壁》是由方文山(作词)林俊杰(作曲)的一首中国风的情歌,JJ与方文山透过“赤壁online game”的虚拟世界题材元素,将三国时代的女子“小乔”透过文字及音符,共同创作出“赤壁online game”的主题曲《醉赤壁》。林俊杰和方文山将喜好化为创作,共谱三国时代的小乔故事,让“赤壁online game” 更添阳刚气之外的铁汉柔情。






    UNPLUGGED 环节


    I'm so lovin' this!!! gorgeous grand piano. charm ahhhhh :)))
