SBS Geek

Geek!!

I found out some criteria need to fulfill in order to excel in Sg education system:

a) super duper hardworking: must finish every revision b4 the next start.

b) 'kiasu' character: when the lecturer states a project to be 7 pages content but excluding appendix, you must do 7 pages of content + 30 pages of appendix to be ahead of others-_-". i felt so ridiculous when someone hand up a 'textbook' instead of '7 pages proposal'!

c) Genius of course......

You will be surprised if you see the education system here when everything need to be ahead of others. Yes, it might be helpful to keep the country productivity up, but it begins to put the country in a situation where there is a 'no life' country.

Competition is good, but if it has become a pheromone, it might drive ppl to crazy. Work for fun; Study for fun.

Upside Down

--Upside Down--

been tormented by projectsss, assignments, studies recently. =(. Get easily agitated by the sign of project work, discussion & other things else. I'm having 'hormone unbalanced symptom', someone said, and this might be true. Hope this will end faster, and the stupid final exam coming soon, aih... why study life in sg is so siao one....


Try to take a good side of other things happen... Last Sat work as SA for SBS open day, got $80, good pay with relaxing job=) i attempt to discourage ppl esp kt juniors from taking BS courses,unless you are super-duper hardworking, can saturate ur brain with tons of facts n words, must be 'kiasu' or genuis type, coz I am neither one of these, I felt bit drifted away from the 'Bio Environment'.


And i got a voucher, again.. ;), this time is $20 Royal Sport House voucher from IIC, I ve ald got 3 quiz prizes from IIC...When i was complaining i never got a free movie pass , then i saw my name on the IIC article unexpected..So conclusion, 'don't expect something, then you will get something', emm... kinda crap.

RSH Voucher

Damn cute..

Hope Aunty Siew Jin ll get well soon...

One week recess

Recess

Recess is meant either to catch up or relax . I choose the later one which mean i slack the whole week. Saturday went to sing k with my ntu gang of frens. That's been so long since the last time we sang and the overnight stay at JunPing house made me recall the last few times we went there. The day before gg to Pulau Redang and Desaru. It felt so nice, i wish to go back to the time we were at Pulau Redang. It will never be the same feeling if i go there again...

One week at home is a luxury to me. Basically, zuan n i spent time sleeping, eating, watching movie, touching com and i touched a bit of NMR notes. Even my daddy can't tolerate our slacking mode.

Due to unsuccessful trip to Genting, on thus, Tong Tong brought us to experient a gambling day cruise in Pasir Gudang, actually it was a stationary cruise around Indonesia. That's mean i was tralleving oversea within the few hours. We need to take a 1hr ferry to the cruise. Not a nice ferry trip, my head had been spinning .

The cruise basically had nothing much except gambling, We scrolled around the cruise upteen times until we were so familiar with the cruise layout. The best thing we had enjoyed was the included lunch and dinner, since it was buffet. Zuan n i hum dam everything until we can't take it anymore. Oh yup, n the next best thing... we had been praised ' pretty gal', 'amoi', 'leng lui' along the way. Walieu, i had never been treated that b4, pretty gal definitely has advantage, I had constitutively non-stop free food and drink.. Haha. But zuan kena a staff 'molest' hand....-_-

And Saturday sister gathering at Jie place was another enjoyment. Ann succeccfully did 4 Physics ques till the next morg. Maybe.. Physics can be the next drug candidate for Insomia, coz after exhaustingly did 1 ques, only, Ann slept sweetly the whole nite. Even how Zuan disturb her, she never fights back.

This yr is Rat year. According to the paper, magazine, tv prog, 'Bull/ Cow" has a great year ahead. Everything ll be fine, wanna find job?can get. wanna get a partner?No problem. Wanna get good grades? Of course. Wa... so good, happy happy, at least some good news for a New yr.

So, I rushed home on Tues nite with ann ann, the trafiic was not that bad as we predicted. Zuan and Jie, at first said wanna back on Wed, but i think they couldn't wait longer to c me, guess they miss me, they back home from Sg at 9pm... reach here almost 12.. 1 nite sleeping at home is a big difference!

Our reunion dinner ended up became reunion 'lunch' as mummy, suggested to see papa, that we yearn to back Gemas asap but the truth was we didn't say anything b4. That's mummy tricks. Haha.

Posted a few pic of our reunion lunch. Can see from the photos we were having a damn healthy and funny steamboat feast. A full basket of vegetables plus a few biji of fishball/crab roll. I regret to back earlier and helped papa to do the market shopping trip. Anyway, it still tasted wonderful!! =)

Vege, Big sotong, prawn, egg, abalone slices, types of mushroom, tauge + a small tuperware containing fishballs/crab roll

Yum Cha trip

Yum Cha !! -- Eating Episode 1

Yum Cha Restaurant, located in the heart of Chinatown ( This is how their tagline goes). They have this so called ' High Tea Buffet' which u pay S$16.8 + GST + Sevice charge ~ S$19.80 ( is quite expensive but worth) and then u can eat watever u can from the menu listed, from 3.00-5.30pm!


And so, i n CS wanna treat our stomachs a more delighting meal, a once-a-blue moon dining out. So, on Friday, we deliberately skipped the lunch to save for the buffet. I even listed out before gg to the restaurant wat to eat and wat not. Before describing, post a few pics of the Dim Sum


Not only that, we list down wat we have eaten, only until we guess the price has over the buffet price and our stomachs cannot fill any dim sum more, we stop eating. I know I'm calculatve, coz i even calculate how much we have eaten =). This is how the list goes!

1) Steamed Pork Ribs with bean sauce 蒸排骨 x2 ~ $4 each - ** must try
2) Xiao Long Bao ** must try
3) Steamed chicken claw
4)Dumpling
5)Siew Mai
6)'Chang fen'
7) Boiled soup
8)Custard roll
8) Egg tart - **must try
9)Fried soft shell crabs x 2 ( coz listed price is $8 each, so must eat a lot )
10)Crispy banana with red bean
11)Sesame BBQ pork pastry
12) mango pudding

Apparently, i think we should have eaten over the buffet price la. Emm, i would rate 8/10 for the dim sum; 5/10 for the service. Not really good service, the food we called only come after half n hr. And i overheard a waitress telling her fren not to give so much ( since is a buffet) to a foreigner who came alone, since they assume he wouldn't be able to finish it.

Dim sum~ Nice... Ann zai, Zuan zai, next time drag Jie jie along with papa mami n we go there again !!

Drama Fanatic

Drama Fanatic

I am a drama fanatic. Currently watching Hongkong drama ' Survivor Law II' and ' Ye man nai nai II'.. Why am i called drama fanatic? Because I can finish 5 episode, each last abt 40minutes per day. That's mean i spend around 4 hrs watching, While taking lunch 1 epi, while dinner 1 epi. Nite maybe 2 epi... i believe i can finish the whole drama series in 1 day, if dun ve the guilty feeling of not touching any notes =)

Watching drama or movies is a must-have entertainment in NTU. Seriously, coz we seldom go down to the TV lounge watch show, uncomfortable + might ve someone down there+ mosquitoes flying around.

Dun worry, this only lasts for a moment, when the stress of studies comes, I would stop.

Recommend this book and movie: The Kite Runner. Story about two boys in Kabul; One is from a rich family whereas another is the rich boy's so called servant. Discrimination of races, country political issues, master -servant relationship, brotherhood, all in this great book. It talks about people, reality of this world, how we treat each other, what we actually call 'friend'.
