Can the kids please stop calling me Mrs Kwek?!?! Geez.. I seriously doubt their ability to differentiate between ms and mrs! lol.
Boy: Mrs Kwek is hereeeee.. (at the parade square and he ran off before i could even correct him)

The workload is now coming in.. but still managable with so many of us :)

Plus i've finally signed up for driving!!! haha.. Yes.. i noe it contradicted with my previous post.. But it was bcos my mum was asking when do i want to learn.. then i was like tmr tmr go sign up.. N she was like okay.. So.. went to cdc on mon and there were alot ppl queuing.. waited for like 1 hr plus and the man talked for 1 hr plus too.. So i pratically spent like 3 hrs there.. But luckily i managed to find an earlier date for my BTT thanks to the man who helped me. Plus he booked like 10 driving lessons for me in the month of April.. Like so many lahh.. so most probably, I will take my driving test in June (according to him). That's fast considering the fact that i signed up late. lol. N i found out that my instructor's name is Freddie.. same as my dad's .. haha

N i should really change my working environment. Its seriously a time to try out differnt things.. Mayb a tour guide.. haha.

Going jogging tmr... I'm feeling healthy. LoL

I wonder why the army guys will wear a cap when they book out. Not as if they look ugly when they are botak. One perfect example:


OKay. This was the only photo tt i took cos we were all sooo tired last night. haha

I really think this period of time is the best time to job hop. We were like making a list of the differnet kinds of jobs during work and the few things that we came up with were selling ice cream at ben and jerry.. tuition.. haha. But the main idea is to sell ice cream. And even Debbie was saying tt do what we like since we are still young and she was like see who will stay longer at naps. haha. WEll, i shall wait for my contract to end b4 deciding. Maybe it is a good idea to work in some big established company to get used to such working life. Afterall working in naps does not train myself to be stronger as the environment is so familiar. Its school afterall and i'll feel at ease there.

N of cos thinking of doing some volunteer work with jasmine and and to learn how to drive. But my mum told me to wait till the results are out and when i'm done applying for uni b4 learning how to drive. haha

Okay.. I've a list of movies tt i want to watch: P.s. I love you, Step up 2 and The eye.. Anyone wants to watch with me? haha :)

Went out with the whole group of them tdy. watched the movie "L change the world". The small little boy is supppeeer cuuuteee !! haha. Quite nice show and the thing is tt we didn't know tt there will be a short part at the end after the whole list of acknowledgements. So almost everyone left the cinema and we wanted to do so too. But the guys so happened wanted to use the toilet at the cinema hall there.. n the girls didn't go as the queue was quite long.. So we jux fluke it and managed to watch the last part as they showed once the guys came out of the toilet and well, luckily the girls didn't go to the toilet, or else we would have missed it.. haha :) The next show shall be the eye. Right, wy? haha. the 2 of us want to watch but the guys like don't want to watch.. its a complete opposite lahh.. haha

Met wy in the afternoon first and we went shopping again. She's really my best shopping buddy since last yr.. haha. There were sales like everywhere and managed to have some gd buys :)

N ppl keep speculating when the results will be out. Ai ya, if not this week then they will say confirm next week. When results didn't come out on the 15 Feb everyone were like saying it will be this week. N the army guys were like saying they will b let off on the 29 Feb.. So? It was the same when they said they would be let off early on the 15 Feb. Stop speculating lahh.. Making ppl nervous only. N this has started since like b4 cny .?!?!

N wy, remember our trip to Taiwan. Alia, if u r reading this, want to join us still? haha Mayb the army guys can join us too when they have their 2 weeks break N of cos the class girls too! :))

This en-bloc thing is back again in my condo after the previous failed attempt last yr. Heard that this time round requires more proccedures.. getting dunno how many ppl to agree, how many ppl to turn up for first meeting etc etc. N there was supposed to be a meeting tdy.. But the entire thing was lapsed n everything has to start all over again because they require a certain number of ppl to be present at 8pm sharp but everyone took their own sweet time n thus it doesn't count. Like who knows of such ruling lahh.. N heard tt there were like about 12 or so ppl at the other block who oppose to the en-bloc n were ready to charge into the conference room anytime to phsyco everyone. So many conflicts had occured due to this collective sales n it had shown the ugly side of some ppl. N it has shown the greedy side of some ppl who are always not satisfied with the amount proposed and think tt their units are worth much more. $3million plus is alrdy a huge sum of money and yet they are not satisfied. N they were like u can't get the same flat size, same surroundings with 3 million.

N of cos i've started thinking of where we should move if the en-bloc were to be successful one day. haha. N of cos i would still prefer to stay at katong this area as there are many food stalls ard, parkway is jux a bus stop away, town is jux nearby (with the help of the expressway), i can get to vivo quickly too. After all i grew up in this area. Although the only inconvienience is tt there is no mrt station nearby. But the nearest is only a few bus stops away.. which is alrdy quite gd and what more there is bus to most of the places. Okay, i sound like i'm promoting my neighbourhood but i seriously can't imagine myself staying in tampines, bedok or in the west. I used to find tampines confusing with all the blocks plus the heavy traffic. Plus i got scared of bedok esp during my 2 yrs in tj, when i often got stuck in the jam and my mum had to speed like crazy in oder to get everyone just in time for school.

But i know we won't get to move at least in the near future as there is really alot of opposition. But I'm sure maybe when the IR is being built and with the youth olympics, property will boom esp for my area since it will be quite near to the IR.. But even so, ppl will always be unsatisfied, always wanting more.

Okay, enough of that. Went jogging tdy again :) didn't really jog much as the sky looked threathening then. N there was no net loss in calories cos i ate 2 slices of pizza after the jog.. >_< hahaha

Results are coming out n i really hope it will not be next friday (29 feb) cos i'll be attending my cosin's wedding on tt day and ppl will bound to ask.. It will even make matter worse esp when all my cousins are so clever n they are are alrdy university graduates or has gotten into some super good course of their choice with their excellent results. N if it were to come out on the first wk of march, n if i don't do well (i'm not trying to be pessimistic here), my mum will blame it on the new car that my dad bought which will be out on the first wk of march too. I hope hope hope she dun have to blame it on the car *keeping my fingers crossed*

Talking about the new car, my dad jux ordered it yst n they say it will be ready on the first wk of march. like so fast can.. normally it will take like ard 6 mths but bcos of the airshow this time round, we can get it fast. cos the car is used to drive the vip ard for this wk. n bcos of that they gave a super big discount. so y not take this offer cos they only used it once n it is cheaper by alot. Furthermore, we got further discount cos my cousin is working at that company. So yah, basically, it was a good deal. Esp to my dad who is always so particular about the car tt he drives :)

And, And, Singapore won the bid to host the youth olympic.. woohoo. haha. it really shows what a young and dynamic nation s'pore is despite its size. :)

And, And, i can't wait to meet wy tmr :)) it will be a fun day i'm sure.

Work has been relatively fine for me. Love the days when we go jogging after work. haha. it really ensures that my stamina does not detoriate. :)

Today, Mrs pawa caught us reading books and she was like you will be in trouble if the p sees this. But what to do.. we are fast n efficient in doing our work. Darn. I was still thinking of doing more reading during this period of time, to enrich myself. haha N i wonder if teachers are supposed to do such thing.. You see, when i went to class today, the class was super noisy and a boy was like talking loudly across the room to another friend. Super pissed with the noise level, I mimicked him and then told him to quieten down. Its jux me lahh. Ppl ard me will noe tt i will sometimes mimick ppl for fun. haha. But it kinda of worked cos the boy kept quiet throught :)

I jux realised my mum n dad are very cute.
mum: Lets have a race (we went to the gym u see on sat and she felt like running)
bro n i jux stared at her.
mum: okay. 1,2,3 get set go.
n my bro sped off, leaving my mum n i still running at the back.

mum: lets buy wang li hom latest album
*n she just walked into the record store n look for tt cd
mum: wah. wang li hom so much better than jay chou.. n she started blabbering on a few reasons
wad a hip mum i have. she always listen to these pop songs haha.

we were eating at some place..
waitor: ni shi yao fan de ma?
dad: mei you
then he calls the waitor again.. everyone thought that he wanted tt bowl of rice.. instead..
dad: ni ying kai jiang ni shi yao bai fan de ma..
everyone jux stared at him n started laughing. lol

I've been dreaming of my friends and classmates lately.. Yes, sharon, jas n tian qi will be like saying again cos they always hear me talk abt my dreams. haha. Specifically i dreamt of shi fang, wen xin n woan yun (with dyed brown hair) haha. then i dreamt of ridhwan (like ?!?!) at pasir ris. (he stays at pasir ris too) randomness.. but these are the only few ppl i rmb dreaming of. haha..

I got this feeling that my bro is going to fail his first A-math test! He was jux asking me some qns n when i explained to him the concepts, he had this puzzled look on his face. Wonder if he has been day-dreaming in class n during tuition!

N i have spent half of my pay alrdy.. bought present for my sis ( a wallet which cost ard $100) n of cos something for myself.. a wallet too! I really hope tian qi's palm reading is not true man.. tt i'll be a spendtrift in the future. cos everyone was saying tt it is true upon seeing wad i've bought for myself. I shall change destiny. Its in my own hands after all :) I'm still thinking what to get for my mum. she has gt like everything. I've alrdy knew what i want to get for my dad n bro - a ralph polo and CK bag. Afterall, its my first pay and i want to get something memorable for everyone :)

Its 1 am now. I just don't feel sleepy and i have to wake up super early tmr for work.. haha.. All bcos i slept frm 8 plus at night to 10 plus and it will soon be a vicious cycle.. as i'll be tired tmr n will again fall aslp ard 8 n again i'll feel super awake ard this time. lol :)

tadah. haha. bye daphne. we'll miss u :)

Happy CNY everyone (:
Today's reunion dinner was okayy. The food wasn't that great and it was somemore ex. Could have gotten better food at other restaurants for the same price if not for the late booking. This year dinner was a little weird as the number of ppl who went for dinner had shrunk drastically. For the past 18 years of my life, reunion dinner had always been a noisy affair for my family as EVERYONE would get tgt on cny eve. (ard 30 ppl) But this year was different. Only 2 families turned up for dinner tdy. It had shrunk to a pathetic number of 13. The rest booked their own restaurant and ate on their own
Oh ya. I've the sudden urge to learn driving now!! haha. This is after seeing my cousin being able to drive around freely.. like buying supper in the middle of the night. haha. How cool can that be.. (My cousin just got his license) But there is always mac delivery at night.. okay this is just to comfort myself. lol. I can't imagine myself driving my dad's or mum's car.. It will be super fun lahh. (: Like jux tdy when my mummy drove my dad's car, she didn't know how to operate it cos it was a long time since she last drove it n his car was a little diff frm others. So we were like trying to tell her how to operate n all and i was tinking at that time that if only i knew how to drive, i would be take over immediately without having to keep telling her how to operate it. (as she took some time to get the hang of it and din't know what we were talking about)haha. How fun can tt be lah.. I shall learn driving soon..
OK ppl.. Enjoy ur long weekends.

After working at NAPS for a month or so, I've started to find the kids there irritating. Couldn't stand the noise level and the way they answered back at the teachers. Thank god I don't have to teach. I didn't really go to classes to babysit or anything but just chasing them for forms is a torture. Hope this will not make me deslike children. They seriously ain't that cute as i thought they would be. Seriously, kids nowadays are unlike the past generations when most students were scared of teachers. Like just today, I had to take a few boys to see the vp ocs they bullied another student. Their reactions were like okay lo. Go and see the principal. Nothing to be scared of. I couldn't sense any fear in them.
Okay. Enough of that. I seriously can't wait for 7 Feb to come. It means pay day! haha I've sort of planned what am i going to do using that money. But i wouln't say it here. Its a secret. haha. but i'm not that really excited over cny. Cos it is boring to just go to relative's house n just sit there. I want to go on a holiday since there will be 5 days of holidays (i don't have to work on cny eve since the school will only be opened for 2 hrs) lol. But luckily i'll be meeting up with the clique during cny and watching tons of movies with my family. So cny will not be that boring after all. :)
Happy CNY people. And i jux realised my tag board isin't working.

HELLO :)
my first entry after procrastinating for 26483020 years.
Life now has been rather mundane - working, shoppin, sleeping.. jux these few things.haha. I'm bored. I'm also quite slack at work. As in sometimes we are only given a few tasks to do in a day, which all 4 of us will finish it very quickly and we will then be back to our slacking mode again. haha. but for the amount of work and the amount of pay that we are given, it is considered quite a good deal.
So I've decided to do something more constructive and not spend these few months not achieving anything. That's why Tianqi n i have decided to learn jap and we have signed up to be part of the Youth Executive Member at the Marine Parade CC. So we will take part in the planning of events n all.. So life will not be tt boring after all. Plus learning how to drive. (i've been saying tt i want to learn driving since dunno when.. but i'm plain lazy to go all the way to ubi to sign up.. haha! ) After all, life does not evolve ard jux making money. I want to do sth meaningful. N more community work! I had enough of shopping. lol
Okay.. I shall post another time. :)
