Woohoo! I'm back!!!

I'm so sorry that you guys had to wait sooooo long for my updates. But here I am! I never break my promise! =D A brief summary of what happened for the past 3 months in this entry. I'll be updating previous entries with photos, so check them out below this post. I'll make an update here to make things easier for you guys.

Uni life is tough tough tough! I was already mentally prepared that it was gonna be tough. But it turned out even tougher. =( It's like I'm constantly studying and studying, yet it's never enough. I'm practically studying everyday of the week. I feel like I'm a super no-lifer. The reason why I didn't had time to update my blog. Boo!

Let's continue from where I left off.

Hall camp, wasn't as fun as SCE/MSE camp. My room in hall is quite pretty and new since they just renovated it. There's an air-con unit in the room! But I can't use it yet. Tsk! I always go back home on Fridays after school and back to hall on Sunday night. The feeling is kinda sucky. Somehow, I don't feel as comfortable in hall as compared to home. The bed is harder than my own bed which makes it uncomfortable. I have to carry all my stuff to the toilet to bathe, lucky the toilet is close to my room. Sometimes it gets super hot in the room, but there's only fan. I even bought in an extra fan, but not strong enough. If it's not for the distance, I guess I would rather stay home. Bleahz.

I did not join any hall activities because I feel that if I do, I won't have enough time to study. I wanted to join hall softball team but training's twice a week. =/ So yeap, I'm some anti-social freak in hall. Haha.

Lessons are kinda scary. The profs don't bother if you understand their lecture a not, they just zoom pass everything. And most of the profs are from Cheena. Which makes it even harder to understand! ARGH! Lucky there's video lectures. And at least I can watch the video lectures if I overslept and miss my lectures. =/ Tutorial classes are fine but lab sessions are kinda sucky. It's not like previously in poly, lecturers will first give a brief introduction before you begin your lab. In uni, it's like just throw you there to do. And the worse thing is, my group, FGT1. There's only 7 of us and I'm the only girl there. =( And the rest are all weirdos. Totally weirdos! So I don't really enjoy my tutorial/lab sessions. I guess I'll be switching over my group to the one same as my friends. Oh yes! My course, the guys vs girls population is totally 9:1. In my clique, I'm like always the only girl there. I feel damn sad la. I wanna go toilet during lessons, cannot ask if anyone wanna go accompany me and stuff. Boo! =( And when guys are together, they have guys talk, then I will feel so weird listening to them. Yux! Haha.

I totally miss my poly life. The carefree life, the crappy stuff we do together but yet, still studying hard. Sigh. And I totally totally miss having girls' company during lessons. But lucky for me, I have 2 very very good buddies. Without them, I guess I wouldn't be able to survive uni life. My dearest 'daughters' Aik kun and eelin. My lunch and dinner, listening ear, crapping and study, partners! Without them, I guess my life in uni will be like shit. No matter how bad my day in school is, I'm always super excited to meet them and update each other. And we'll just cheer each other up with our super crappy and lame jokes. At times, laugh till I get stomach aches and cry. The thing is, we only met each other during camp. We have only known each other for a few months, but somehow, they feel like my long lost friends. And why I call them daughters because I'm the oldest among them and I always have to 'look after them'. I totally totally love them and thankful to have met them! Not forgetting, Chong kiat, although I always bully him till there's no tomorrow, but I'm thankful to have known him because he's great at giving advices! He got potential to become one of my 'guy bestie'. LOL.

Oh, I told myself that I will join a sports CCA in uni. Unfortunately, I'm back to being in a club again. LOL! I'm in my School Club as an Events Director. So here I am, I'll be organizing events and stuff again. Plan to change, failed! Haha. I guess I'm just fated to be organizing stuff. Interview for the post was quite scary. And I had to wait for god knows how many hours siting on the floor outside the room in cold chilly wind for my turn for the interview!

The boyfriend and I have been doing well. He just came back not long from Australia. And I'm glad we survived 28 days away from each other. :)

Exams in uni is horrible!!! No matter how much I study, it's never enough! The paper is totally out to demoralize people. And you can never finish your paper on time. I never felt so hardworking before. I studied like non-stop for 3 whole weeks! At times, I really felt like giving up because I was just so tired of studying and yet I still feel like I don't know a lot of things. And yes, I broke down just before my 3rd paper because I was super scared that what if I don't do well for everything and I had to repeat my modules. Oh well, exams are over for now, I don't wanna think about it till exam results are out. Let me enjoy my 5 weeks before I have to start the struggle all over again for the next sem.

Yes, so basically that's what happened. In conclusion, I miss poly life! I miss my carefree life! I've 6 more sem to go. =/

I had a great great great day today, reason being I went to SCE DND with my loves! Haha. Took lots of photos, food was all right, performance was all right. Our pageants representatives did great, company was awesome! Woohoo!

The drive back home was horrible though. It was raining soooo heavily that it was flooded and I couldn't see. I had to on the hazard lights to drive and I was driving so slowly, cold sweat while driving. OMG! I couldn't even see the lane markings or the cars in front of me. I only had the lights to guide me. Bleahz.

We decided to shift my stuff in today since it was the only time we had before I start school. There were like so much stuff to bring over. Aiyoyoyo!

Some pictures of my room and its surrounding!

After coming back from hall camp early this morning, I headed to sleep like a pig before I prepared and met the rest to head for Weixin's Birthday BBQ. Super tired but how can I miss her birthday gathering!

Yes, the tanned me after I came back from camp and I'm loving it! LOL! I'm even tanner than Aldis! Heh!

To celebrate Weixin's birthday, we decided to head to the Via Ferrata at Orchard Central to have some fun. Initially I thought it was very easy to complete. Seriously, it looks very easy. But when  you tired it, you'll say otherwise! Fun, tiring and bruised, but a great experience.

This is how the wall looks like. It looks like any normal rock climbing wall right? But on a closer look, it has these bars that resemble ladder. The aim is to reach the top of the wall in groups.

There's no belayer, belaying below. All you have are your own lobster clippers which are hooked onto the wires along the wall. Those are the things that will support you if you fall off. And you got to constantly remove and hook them onto the new sets of wires.

There's also a carabenna where you can hook onto these metal bars so you can lean back and rest. But the thing is, I don't feel safe doing that. So I don't dare to just lean back without my hands holding onto the bar.

Oh yes, There's also this set of ropes which you got to hook onto these pig tails on the way. Just something to add so that we'll stay in a group.

Apparently, I got scared when I look down from that platform while we were resting halfway up there. It's wayyyyyy high up. I just stick myself next to the wall and didn't dare to move an inch. And lots of people starred at us while we were climbing. There's this part of the wall that's very close to this restaurant. It was around dinner time where we passed there, the smell of the food was rather distracting.

Being short has a disadvantage too! My legs couldn't stretch to reach one part of the wall where there were very little places for me to step on and the bars were super far apart that I couldn't reach. I had to had my instructor to help me up there. =/

I think I totally worked out a lot! Halfway up, I was already sweating and aching like mad. Three quarters up the wall, I felt like dying because the distance between the bars keep getting bigger and bigger. I had to keep resting to gain energy to stretch every bit of energy I had to finally reach the top. When I looked up from the top, my legs went jelly.

Lucky it was the end of it. And no, we didn't had to climb all the way down. We only climb a short ladder where we reached the carpark and we took the lift down! LOL.

Since our clique biggest sister is having her birthday today. We decided to give her a surprise by appearing at her house at 12 midnight!

This is what happened:

Outing with a few of Todaro girls today! =D

I was quite a piggy. I overslept! Oh no! I only woke up when Ee lin msg-ed me which was the time when we were supposed to meet. Lucky for the both of us, we were late. Haha. =x

We then headed to meet Aik Kun and Angeline before we walked around a little then head to Ah Chew Dessert for desserts! Duh! Haha.

We spend quite awhile there talking and playing games on my iPod Touch. You should go to Facebook and watch the video. Ultra cute, ultra funny.

We then head to the arcade later to play a few games, we actually topped one of this machine where we threw plastic balls at the screen to hit objects. Guess what, we put our name as Todaro and we were all shocked to see that we were the first. Muahaha!

Dinner was at Shokudo. Then later home sweet home. No camera with me, so no photos! =x

I had a great time with them! I hope we'll still spend time with each other once school starts! You all gotta come my hall and find me!!!

And yes, we received bad news. Aik Kun's friend couldn't pull her over to Hall 11. So now, not a single chance of her becoming my roomie. I'm ultra duper super sad. =( Sighhhhh.

Uncle Chua asked me out for a photoshoot today. I gave face and went even though the sky were gloomy and dark. L partner came along with me and I would say I didn't make the wrong choice of heading down for the photoshoot.

I had lots of fun. Thank you partners! =D

However, photos weren't that nice, grey skies spoils them. =(

Enjoy! Especially the last few shots, totally no image! =x

Notebook tender list is out for my school.

I'm considering between Acer Aspire AS3935 and Macbook Pro 13".

$400 difference. Which to get? My heart's sitting on the fence.

It's between money and wants. ARGH!

I hope when I head down to the shop on 1st Aug, stocks are up and I can get it immediately. I wanna settle all the stuff before I head for hall camp. School's starting soon and there isn't much time left! Oh no!!!

My family decided to head out to Bugis Junction today and I had to be the driver since my dad doesn't want to drive. I'm injured and they make me drive! Boo! Haha.

Yea, so lunch was at some Shanghai Restaurant food. Food wasn't that fantastic but still nice. We then headed to get my contact lens before we did some shopping at Bugis Junction.

Desserts and Ah Chew dessert stall again. Then I drove back home.



Rested for a bit before I drove out to Changi Village for dinner with my family. The carpark there very messy leh. Tsk! Dinner there wasn't as shiok as Chomp Chomp. I still wanna go back Chomp Chomp for more food!!!

I then drove back home again. Poor little injured girl gotta drive and get all the unreasonable scoldings from my dad. =( Even my mum and sister were laughing at him.

Todaro met up for the second outing today! :)

We were supposed to meet at East Coast Park Macdonalds at 12pm but everybody else ended up late! Like 1 hour plus loh! Anyway, Mark was nice, he gave me, Eugene and Ee Lin a lift from Newton. But someone overslept. LOL!

I decided to be brave and adventurous and try out roller blading. I was already dripping sweat even before I made my first move. RAWR!

Roller blading was bad bad bad! I kept falling and falling like no one's business. =( But thanks to Mark, Jie Hao, Ee Lin, Zhi Yuan and Eugene and a few others who helped me up when I fall. I can officially say I know how to blade le! Woohoo!

I can say we had a great time together, but very very tiring. 3 hours of blading and falling. At one point of time, I nearly wanted to take out my blades and just walk back. Haha. I couldn't remember how many zillion times I fell but I remembered I always end up in weird positions. Like a big wide split right in front of Ee lin. A superman fall right down on the floor and I didn't even realized I was injured till I saw blood. Then I was wondering and looking around looking for my wounds. Haha. A fall into the grass patch. All the falls didn't brought pain but laughter to myself. Haha.

Dinner was at some Hong Kong Cafe there. Food wasn't that nice, the company mattered. We then walked to Parkway Parade for a few games of pool before we all headed home.

Home sweet home now with a big fat bruise on my left knee, sprained right knee, wound on left elbow and right baby finger, aching calves from the tight blades. Aching arms. And of course, a new tan! Yay! I wanna tan more more more!!!

No photos from me because I was busy trying to concentrate on my blades and my balancing skills and I was also super tired at the end of the day to dig out my camera for photos.

For photos, please go to my Facebook. :)

I've decided to not be a lazy girl and head to school today to redo my urine test.

1.5 hours of loner journey, blasting music into my ears, trying to catch some sleep. I was lucky there were space to sit.

And so my journey back to school, I was trying very hard to concentrate and remember which stop was it to drop. Haha. And yay! I got it right, I'm not that country pumpkin after all.

Climbed that steep 'hill' up to the clinic, I was still panting and sweaty by the time I reach there. In the end, I didn't have to wait at all, I headed straight for the urine test. And there I was done in 5 minutes!

So yap, I spend 1.5 hours traveling and just 5 mins to get everything done. RAWR! I headed over to Orchard to meet the bf. While waiting, I applied for my Ez-link card already. Yay! I can't wait to collect it so I can switch over to Student Plan and spam sms-es and calls! Muahaha!

Bf and I decided to head to Ion to check it out. I tell you, I'm so loving Ion!!! Haha. It's a really nice place with lots of shops. Springfield's my current addiction, I spent money on 2 bottoms that were on sales, super worth it!

Anyway, dinner was at The Soup Spoon. Ultra shiokness when it comes to souppppp~ Tried the Clam Chowder, thick creamy and filled with ingredients! Yum! Baby's peppery chicken thingy was nice too, he loved it but I think it got a tad spicy after drinking too much. But he was pouting when it came to an end. Haha! I feel healthy and SUPER full! I couldn't even finish my Roast Duck half wrap that was filled with lots and lots of veg!

Home sweet home with boyfie helping me to put my new tera into my love. Muahaha! WOOHOOO!

Hall's Posting Results is out!!! And I'm utterly disappointed can!

I wanted to get Hall 2 because of the toilets and it's near school. But but but noooo!!! I didn't, I got Hall 11 instead. And guess where in the world is Hall 11? It's located right next to Jalan Bahar exit at NTU! You know how freaking far is that from school!!!!! :( :( :( :( :(

It's not walkable to school, I confirm need to take shuttle bus or public bus to school liao. Imagine how packed that will be! ARGH! The only good thing I can think of is that it's near the exit of NTU so I can get out of NTU fast. And the exit there is the road that leads to bf's camp.

That's not the worst part. The worst part is that all the other Todaro girls are like at the other 'sector'. Which is still very far away from me! =( Oh man!!! You all eat dinner, come my hall find me hor, go back hall late at night must walk me back to my ulu ulu hall first okay. Pouts! Seriously upset!

Someone suggested that I should just cycle to school everyday. Haha. Seriously, I think I should consider it.

Now now, Aik Kun is trying to get her friend to pull her over to Hall 11 and if possible be roomie with me. I'm hoping it will work. Even if not the same room never mind. Just pull her over to Hall 11 can already. Of course if she's my roomie it'll be double happiness. I don't want to get some random roomie. =( Cross fingers, prays hard!

Stephie is saddddd. :( Hall 11 - the ulu hall with lots of greens and BBQ pit. =/

I'm such a busy woman today. I headed over to bf's place to spend time with him. Then later, I headed out to have my very first outing with Todaro.

Bf's was being nice, he accompanied me to leave house earlier and took a bus to Novena before he took a train back to Toa Payoh to buy food for his camp mates and cabbed back. Thanks sweetie! =)

Anyway, serious miscommunication! We were supposed to meet at City Hall MRT but everybody ended everywhere else. We were supposed to eat at The Soup Spoon but somehow people said the name of the place wrongly, so it ended up becoming Soup Restaurant. Reservations were already made! LOL. In the end it was canceled and we headed over to Aston's for dinner.

2 super long table, super noisy bunch of people, zillion orders. I think the people surrounding us were pissed, the chefs were super busy, the waiters/waitress were super confused and irritated! But we had fun though. Ops! Haha.

After dinner, we headed to play pool at Marina Square. After a game, everyone decided to chiong for last train. I wondered who was the person who said we were really late and we ended up having to run to the MRT station. Super unglam! The second time running across City Link with the same group of people la!

Anyway, I was having a hard time, my shorts were dropping while I was running and I weren't in the proper footwear. Imagine how no image I was. Argh!

In the end, we didn't even had to board the last train, but we were sweating and panting like mad.

Photos!

While waiting in the queue and deciding our orders.

Me likes this pictures a lot! Introducing our Ah Gong who gives me weird nickname like Starefurknee! He literally stared at my knees to check if there were fur when we met. -_-'''

Part of those that were there during the Todaro outing.

At one of the super long table.

Wee! =D

I'm back from SCE/MSE FOC 09/10!!! Woohoo!!!

Overall feelings of the camp:
- Planning and organization quite sucky.
- Food was horrible.
- Accommodation was terrible.
- SP thingy quite roll eyes.
- Games were fun but ultra tiring.
- GLs, SAs, ancestors were GREAT!
- The people in Todaro is LOVE!

It wasn't really the camp that I enjoyed, it was more of the people that I met that made me enjoyed the camp. =) We started out as strangers, total quietness, then because of what hit us we ended up as an ultra bonded noisy bunch of crazy peeps.

13 girls into one small room. How pro can we get. 13 girls queuing up to bathe in 1 toilet. The boy girl boy girl thingy that we always hated. How I always don't look forward to meal times because the food was bad bad! I couldn't even finish half a packet. The new tan that I got from the camp. Woohoo! =) The gossiping girls in the room at night. The learning of mass dance under the hot sun which we did not perform in the end. The meeting of the SP. My first ever visit to a club. The best ever skit performed by us. The stupid jokes and stuff from our GLs and SAs. The fake freshie thingy. The piak piak sound of our slippers when we run around for amazing race. Running from City Link to Singapore Flyers, running across MRT stations. Many many other stuff. It will be all kept in my heart. =)

But I wanna say, I love Todaro and I'm glad that I was part of Todaro.

Todaro, swee ar!
Todaro, shuai ar!
Todaro, Todaro, Todaro!
Swee ar, Shuai ar, Sexy ar!!
Wooot!!!

Thank you all for giving me such a nice experience. =) For those who are experiencing the Todaro fever/flu. Please take good care of yourself and drink more! Cos we wanna meet up soon! =D

Some pictures I took during my first ever clubbing night. I enjoyed the night with them totally! The guys were great at taking care of us girls. The seniors were really great at letting our hair down. And to the Todaro girls, you were all great dancing partners! =) I was totally shocked that I actually survived with my ultra high heels dancing around for don't how many hours! Haha. But by the end of the day, I was dead! I had problems walking and we all knocked out immediately.
