all i want for new year is a dog.

i've just spent almost 2 hours dog hunting on the internet hoping to find a dog thats available for adoption. BUT

so far no results, i've mailed at least 10 plus people waiting for their replies.most of the dogs up on the net have already been adopted. cant believe i was late.sigh.oh wells, im just praying hard i can get a dog soon. now that i dont stay in campus anymore, i definitely want a dog as company whom i can love and care for.

party on 31 has been confirmed and i cant wait. its gona be a night of mahjong and playing!woohooo.

muay thai training begins for me tomorrow once again. heard from sunny we are gona do laps of 5x400m and 3x200m, i almost fell off my chair when i saw the amount of runs to do tomorrow!HELP!gona need someone to carry me home after training i think.haha.

after training, its off to Joel's house for his annual year end party. i still remember the times his house was open for christmas parties with huge turkey and lots of good food!mmmm..hope there will be good food again!haha.

cant wait for tues to come.coz Reg is coming over to impart her cooking skills that she has learnt from her uncle's restaurant!haha

alrites. im off to watch a bit of Family Guy and off to bed!

The love of Jesus!

guess what. i just watched IP MAN AGAIN!haha.this time it was with wen kai!!!the show was too good that i really didnt mind payin another 10 bucks to watch it. call it a blessing in disguise, but while watching the show, i realised that the IP MAN i watched back in KL had a few cut scenes!i was like super surprised when i watched it today!i was telling wen kai, 'hey mann.i seriously dont remember watching this part". and stupid kai sai i probably fell asleep during the movie. but i was pretty darn sure i didnt sleep at all BECAUSE the movie was sooo good!ahaha.after watching IP MAN for the second time, i probably like the character Donnie yen played even more.gooshhh.my heart was racing when he fought and protected his wife and child.siiiighhh.time to day dream again..

while we are on the topic on love, today was probably one of JG's last outreach for the year and it was a good end to 2008!started off with a mini game led to ivan and leanne and followed by video clips and skit done by a few of us to showcase the different types of struggles youths probably faced nowadays. the HUNGER for acceptance, approval as well as romantic feelings.ahhh.those were the days where i remember i too had my fair share of struggles. but as i grew up. i also realised that important as these were, the love of God was the one that kept me from going all out to search for all these 3 types of HUNGER=)and i am indeed glad i have found Christ. looking back at my secondary and JC years. ha.i wish i could turn back time and be a better person. but i am thankful i can even see all these pasts and instead of dwelling on it. i can choose to focus on GOD and not on MYSELF. strange how it is when you focus on God, everything else seems sooooo MINOR!i dont even have to worry about my future, in a way that i know God has good plans for me. but of course i am not telling you to not study or work or be a good boy or girl to your parents. do your best in all these with the focus on God as number 1 and God wont fail u=)

gona make a trip down to the SPCA.like FINALLY!tomorrow after church service with my family. i so hope they still have the dog i want. im deciding between a cross minature schnauzer or a sily terrier. oh wells, lets see which dog God has in plan for me tomorrow=)

and before i end: im gona promote BEN's beautiful IBANEZ!!!



I THINK THE BACKDROP LOOKS LIKE A PHOTO STUDIO HUH...=)

oh btw, i dont play the electric guitar, i play the bass. but BEN's guitar was too beautiful not to take a picture with!!

boyfriend dilemma!!!

Contestant 1: Ip Man (Donnie Yen)

- can fight
- humble
- loves wife and children very much
- honourable
- respected



Contestant 2: Edward Cullen

- gorgeous
-powerful. he can fly jump not sleep forever
- can protect
-protective
- caring


wow. i just watched twilight and oh my gosh!

"EDWARD CULLEN" is so so so hot!apart from his amazingly fair skin, he is so gorgeous!ahh.i wouldnt mind dying to be a vampire just so i could stay by his side. he is super strong and good looking and so "hero-like"!!!

now im thinking if i should choose Edward or IP MAN!waha.this may seem a little childish.buuuuut since im so free, i should think its alright to let my mind wander and do a little imagination huh.

ha.edward is the "ang moh" kind of guy i like and Ip Man is the 'cheena" type of guy that melts my heart.siiighh

well, looking at their plus points, i really dont know who to choose if and ever if i were ever to be given a chance!haha

oh wells, times up for fantasizing! im back to reality for now and i know i can probably never find someone that fits all my criteria but im sure God will give me one that is right for me=)for now i just want to do my best at what i am doing and living my life for God!

BLESSED CHRISTMAS!

its almost the end of the 2008.boy, this year has really really gone by in a flash. and before i know it, school is starting real soon.groans.

i had a fantastic time in Ipoh and Kl.climbing, eating, getting to know my climbing mates better each day!theres soo much that happened that i dont know where to start!ha.but all i know is that this first overseas climbing trip of mine has really sparked off a love for natural rockclimbing in me!the climbs though scary but were a breathtaking experience when completed!although i shake a little when im up there, but it makes me wanto to continue!ahhh.i miss climbing already!

had a great christmas party at Charlene's place on the 24th. there was a huge turkey!and the theme for the party was "geeks". altough think i looked more like a freak at the party.my hair was mutiliated by reg,shaotig,doris and even yixiang!haha.but it was fun.

had another christmas party at my Aunty's house but this time the party was more of an evangelistic outreach to pre believers. had good bbq and a good clip from MY HOPE SINGAPORE where a man Kelvin Soh was being interviewed for his living testimony from Christ. once a prisoner who felt he could nvr break free from his bondage in drugs, he found love and forgiveness in Christ which led to his breakthrough in life. i am so glad Christ did it for him, and im sure Christ can do it for you. wont you let him try=)

after the party, dennis,sam,bram,kai,alaster,joel and i went to chill out at TIMBRE!and there was a live band playing.boy, were that awesome!their voices and instruments were powerful!though i was sitting just next to the mega amps.almost went deaf!and the lead singer was CUTE!hahaha.

ahhh.going out in just a while. will be back soon!

BACK FROM CAMP

ahh.im finally back from Camp Majesty!

it was a fun,tiring and refreshing camp!was really touched by God during this camp, and HE has proven his love and faithfullness in keeping the weather up for games, his presence there the whole time. i thank God that i was kept well during the whole camp so i could run the games, and guess what, i had a fever the minute i reached home!ha.well, better fever now than camp.

and yes, i am still having the fever. horrible feeling of cold and aching body the whole time!groanss

going off to ipoh tomorriw morning. i cant wait for that!its gona be my first climbing overseas trip!!!oOoOo

alritees. not much energy left to blog for now.back to bed!

dinner with rocmoc!!

today was sure one crazy day!woke up at 8plus to prepare for muay thai training. boy, was i sleep deprived. tried to stream Shrek 3 last night till 2am!haha.but happy that i got to watch it!yay=)

met sunny to take 151 back to NUS together and we talked crap. and i mean lots of crap.haha.started our first training on the TRACK!gosh.the sun was blistering hot at 10plus in the morning la. almost died while running 10 rounds (=4km) and i had night cycling the night before. thought my legs would give way.BUUUT THANK GOD!i managed to last 4km all the way!aha.was soo glad when it was over. i so hate running on the track for more than 6 rounds. it gets really really boring having to go round and round man.haha.

aft running, we did PULL UPS!i was like "oh my gosh...i havent done pull ups for ages since the exams".and we did like 5 sets of 6?i died at the last 2 sets needing people to assist me.haha.but stupid sunny and CS, didnt even push me up much=(i groaned soo much as i pulled myself up la.so ugly the sound.

aft running,pullups and skipping we did some padwork.ha.i think i go like 3 big blue blacks?each time i shadow boxed with someone, i would end up injuring my shin or ankle.and it sucks and HURTS!!=(i was the only girl, so no choice, had to spar with GUYS only=(dont like. they VELLY STRONGG.

had a good lunch at Engine!ahaha.and rushed back to meet reg for dessert at Bugis!

had a good dinner at some middle east restaurant CAFE AT AL@MAJLIS!the food was alright. not up to my expectations though. but it was the company that made a difference!though the stupid boys kept ranting about ARMY.grrr.so jinyu,ser,reg and i talked abt uni life.haha.so boring.

after dinner, chris brought us to some shisha place where we sat down on carpets!cool man.haha.but it was a little dark though. drank abit and did lots of catching up!haha.

my two most favourite shots of the night=)

UBER SLEEPY AND SLEEP DEPRIVED!

cant wait to dye my hair 2ml!woooo!out...

Aching butts,sore thighs and a grand total of 65km!

i like my title for today's blog entry.SO ABSTRACT!haha.can u guess what i did last night?

NIGHT CYCLING! with some of the rockclimbers!haha.we not only climb you know, but can cycle as well!

met up at pasir ris and left for Changi V to collect the bikes. while collecting payment, $10 suddenly went missing!haha. i really suck in calculations. but thankfully, all of them donated their loose change to make up for the $10.ahh.

time of journey: 9pm

we had dinner at Changi Village first, it was drizzling a lil, prayed really hard for the rain to stop because it was cold and wet. our first challenge was to cycle out of changi V and out of the Changi Coastal road!haha.the roads were wet, and by the time we were out, our backs were half dirtied by the splashing muddy water=(

met up with kenneth at East Coast Park first and boy, was he fresh.haha. our 1st pit stop was ECP Macdonalds!haha.wanted to eat ICE CREAM CHEFS's ice cream, but we were too late.so ended up eating ice cream from MACS. so sad.ha.left ECP for our 2nd pit stop at the bridge at National Stadium. there we stopped to rest for a while. we could feel our thighs burning by now. but it was still alrite. played a few silly games and took lots of pictures. continued on to the Singapore flyer and we saw the F1 track!and even cycled on it!the roads were really different. so smooth and nice.there were also a few FERRARI CARS! parked there.it was an awesome sight!

our 3rd pit stop was at Lau pa Sat!. there we met Brian who was so enthu about continuing with us.haha.we were half dead by now. but still we ate alot of food again, bbq stingray,ban mian,fried calamari,satay!yummm. Brian left home to get his bike. and we carried on to TOWN!our 4th pit stop.haha.we were hopping to catch the christmas lightup BUUUUUT all the lights were off=(.probably to save electricity. we were super disappointed but still used the time to rest again. our butts were aching horribly by now. getting back onto the bikes was a torture by now.

5th pitstop was at Geylang, the famous Yong He "beancurd with youtiao".haha.once again, we were EATING! ate a little and it was 4plus in the morning by now. and we had to hurry back to Changi V coz the cars were multiplying fast on the roads by now. and buses started to operate.

it was a long long way back to Changi V. went back to ECP and rested for a lil while before starting on the Changi Coastal roads. it was sheer pain by now to rest our butts onto the bike seats now. we were all complaining like mad. but still we didnt give up.

then started the long and torturous journey back to Changi V. by now, dawn was breaking and more cars were on the road so we took the cycling path back. it was one lonely ride. everyone cycled at their own pace by now. with little or no energy left to talk.haha.

FINALLY!at 8.30am!we all reached the bike shop. we were soo happy. we immediately got off our bikes and no words could describe how happy we were to be out of the bikes.

we had cycled for almost 10 hours straight!this is my longest night cycling event ever!and one of the mose unforgettable!haha.

total distance cycled( according to bertrand): 65km!!!

I AM SO PROUD OF EVERYONE!

trust me. no one smiled this happily when we ended=)



NEXT NIGHT CYCLING??=)

NEATEST ROOM EVER!!

wow, i just spent 5 straight hours cleaning up my room!went back to my hall aft church and did 2 hours of packing over there. boy, im soo glad i aint staying in hall anymore!i cannot take the moving in and out!big waste of time!i still prefer having all my things at just 1 location!=)good thing bertrand was there to help me move my fridge and big big box down today!thanks bert=)aha.

went home with my dad, had a good chat with him in the car, guessed what the topic was. CARS as usual.haha.guess thats the only thing in common we have.aye. but better than nothing=)its been so long since i talked to my dad. had a good dinner today, mummy cooked roast pork!mmmm.she shd really open up either a cafe or restaurant man.her cooking is the best in this world!!!todays dinner topic was probably one of my happiest, for once, i got to eat with both my mum and dad. something which i havent done for eons man. kinda miss that, despite my mum's nagging. been away from home too long alr. time to settle down again

and did i say i have the neatest room ever now?haha.in this house that it. cannot compare to other people's room la=)but im happy. i got one big space in the middle for doing "crazy things to do in big spaces".

Camp is 1 week later!its really fast!praying hard for good weather, God's presence to even be with us all the way and of course for all of the campers to enjoy the camp thoroughly!

so many things to do this week!and i cannot wait for night cycling on monday night!wooohooo!

EXAMS ARE OVER!

woooohooo!wednesday was a horribly special day for me=)haha.the end of the exams!and i cannot express how happy i was when i walked out of the exam hall. although i didnt think i put in my best for that paper. my brain was dead by the time i was 1 hour into the paper=(boooohooo.left half an hour earlier!haha.felt good man.

anw, aft the paper, valarie, amanda, keshin, cara and i headed down to HOLLAN VILLAGE for a mini post exam celebration!haha.had dinner at NYDC


and the supervisor in NYDC waved at me when i stepped into the shop. he looked familiar and i remembered he was my supervisior when i was workin in the NYDC outlet at Wheelock like aft my O levels!??!thats like hmmm 3 years back alr!wow. i was really surprised he still remembered me.haha.cool man. he said it was coz my name "velly easy" to remember.haha.

aft dinner, we had ice cream at COLD ROCK CREAMERY!one of my favouritest ice cream parlours!!=)



and now cold rock creamery has a little treat for customers who spend $15 and above!free use of boardgames.haa.and we chose Taboo.boy.did we have fun!!!it was one of my most fun night, got to know val and amanda even more!=)

and heres my favourite picture of the day


haha. we found this really cool packaging for some biscuit. the box was really huge!!look at just how many i need to reach my height!!!

AND CONTINUING ON FROM THURSDAY, on FRIDAY, the rockclimbers met up for a movie!!!and boy, it was one of the most eventful outing i ever had. because firstly, Marina Gv was being super anal by not selling us tickets to Quarantine which was NC16, the cashier demanded all 9 of our ICs to check. i was like "what the!!?since when they became so particular abt NC16!" and so we didnt buy coz i didnt get everyone's ic at that time. lucky she was nice enough to reserve the seats for us. and it was Starbucks free Drink day!in lieu of collecting donations for Salvation Army!haha. all of us went to queue and bought our favourite drink.BUUUUUT because it was time for our movie, we decided to sneak the drinks in.


and guess what?!!?when Gerry hid her drinks under her jacket and i held it behind a plastic bag and walked towards the cinema entrance, we got CAUGHT!by some random woman from the popcorn shop. she demanded to know what was under gerry's jacket and so gerry had no choice but to expose our starbucks drinks. and she threatened to throw it away or we drink it up or leave it with them till the show was over. so we had no choice lor. after 15 mins of trying to gorge on icy cold coffee, we were "illegal drinks free" and proceeded to enter the cinema. AND AGAIN!THE TICKET GUY STOPPED US!and demanded our IC for checking. all of us were so angry!first the Sale of Tickets, then the Drinks and now we had to dig through our wallets for our IC again!it was crazy. we were soo mad at MARINA GV that day for being super duper anal!!goodness!

Quarantine was good though most of us almost puked aft the movie because the entire movie was filmed using the perspective of a camera man who was running around together with all the characters. a bloody and gory show but typical plot of some deadly virus or disease attacking humans, making them man eaters.haha.Gerry and Reg almost died from the gory parts.

had a fantastic dinner at Waraku!!and back home!to pack my room up!its half neat right now!=)

1 last day!!!!

i smell FREEDOM soon. and i so cant wait! just had the longest heart to heart talk with regina!wahaha. so grateful for her. i think prob she and germaine are the only people i can pour out my heart to!!=)THANK GOD FOR THEM!haha

did gym with kesavan today, and swam with reg aft her paper.haha.shes learning the free style!im a good teacher!anyone wants any swimming lessons from me=)i shd think free of charge, but u can always throw in a good lunch!muauaha.

went for an eye check today which was conducted in the NUS wellness center. and did some eye checks and found out i was suitable for LASIK!!hmm.thinking if i shd go.tempting man.ha.ahh.that one not important.

aft the eyecheck, reg and i bought new zealand natural's thick shake!with HIGH ANTICIPATION OF THE WONDERFUL CREAMY TEXTURE OF THE SHAKE. mind u. but of course, the drink so failed us. reg bought the macadamia nut flavour and it ended up being watery and tasting like the oily taste of "you tiao".haha.i cldnt stop making fun of her drink. my oreo flavour wasnt too bad. but it got awful to drink when the drink wasnt cold anymore=(

went to the science library to study for a while, and went on a mini junk food spree!and dinner and back to my books.

okies. sleepy sleepy. time to sleep.

Desparate Faith!

1 more paper to go. repeat. 1 more paper to go!!woohoo.studying todays paper almost killed me. i was desparate to do well for this paper. sigh. but at the rate im doing, dont think i can score for this paper alr. i think my method of studying SUCKS big time. need some help in here!!!1 more paper left but i have super no more motivation left to study. HELP!

aft the paper 2day, met up with liying and sidney.haha.it was funny. both of them were really cute.talked a lil and had to go back to STUDYIN!groanss. went to the science library where my macbook did cam whoring for cara and i the whole time!haha.we were desparately tryin to get a decent shot at the rollercoaster background, but not too good. keshin couldnt be bothered by us.

had a decent dinner at the science canteen and now im STUDYING again!.darn.SW2105 and SW2101 is soo similar in content that i feel like im studying SW2105 all over again. and this is a really horrible feeling coz my brain keeps telling me "yo.this is all old info, gimme some new ones otherwise im not gona remember them!" ever felt this way before=(

Lord, i surrended all that i have to you, my exams, relationships, Sports committments, Family and all. i do not want to do things my way, but YOUR way. though i know at times i so want to go for certain things, i know i should hold back and wait for your blessings. Thank You Lord.

and this is my favourite picture of the day!haha.



hope it made u smile!=)
