MIAMI VICE

finally caught it
never regret!
love the fast cars (ferrari spider if i remember)
the guns (LOTS OF IT)
the babe (gong li)
and of course the storyline...
i like the way they film too
its like viewin from the first person view at some pt of the crossfires
made the experience very real...
although the image appears shaky makin me dizzy at times..

the story of cops who live on the edge
to get to the bad guys
and the bad guys who are part of structured transnational organisations
of loyalty, betrayal and lots of guts
a guy who fell for the gal on the other side of the law ..

love built on.. transaction? lust?

i love how the character "sunny" protray himself
arrogant
BUT DAMN CONFIDENT
not refusing to give in to the threats of the bad guys

i love how gong li protray herself
"i am a businesswoman, i need no man to give me a home"
she handles everythin like a business ..
no matter how thick the wall she has built around her..
it still crumbles in the face of "true love"

**************************

so very true..
no matter how much we try to guard ourselves
sometimes we just fall into it.. unwillingly ..
and when we fall .. we fall hard..

like "sunny" said
"i am serious"
although it was short lived..
it will be remembered

CHONG QING MA LA HOT POT

went to cant 2 with colleagues on friday
siamese twin egg and great chicken chop
worth the long walk there
if you're in ntu
TRY IT





CHONG QING MA LA HOT POT

AND IT LIVES UP TO ITS NAME !
there's 3 degrees of spicyness..
we had the "medium" and this is it...
all perspirin and reddened lips LOL


the MA LA SOUP AND CHICKEN SOUP


mum with the BIG POT


dad happy with his prAwns


with mum


3 of us
da, xiao, zhong

dear's mum send us a box of mooncakes! heh
shall savour it soon





now i am reelin from after effects of the hot pot
pardon me if u see my reddened lips..

education system

Schools say subject-based banding will help weaker students level up

Mr Wang Bakes Good Karma's views

am i the only one who is not in favour of the subject based learnin?

i just feel tat education is gettin to be a more "messy" business
with the various "specialisation" or "alternatives" such as foundation subject for those who are weaker in that specific subject

i agree that the removal of the streaming will do the students good
no more elitism etc
BUT ..
i just feel students nowadays are being OVER-EXPOSED

i know.. broad-based learnin
but they are only pri sch ..

i still think havin a good foundation in the BASIC SUBJECTS will do them better in the long run
its still not too late to stream them after PSLE..
accordin to their needs or expectations or watever specific subjects they have interest in

parents nowadays are gettin OVERLY anxious deciding their kids' education path
it MIGHT be advantageous for their kids to get into good schs BUT they shouldnt see it as A MUST TO GET IN ..
gosh
i see parents cryin over failed admission to schools of their choice,
if their kids have the potential they kind excel in ANY SCHOOLS..
the kind of mentality the parents have will reflect on their kids..
elitism..

or am i being outdated in my thinkin?

photos from the trip to chinese garden
the best of my collection

i am bored
need some excitement

was doin crafts these few weeks
but it aint keepin my boredom in check ..
argh
wonder wat i should do next ..
i like to alternate doin different things
not stick to one all the time..
i dun like routines..

jack of all trades
master of none
thats wat i am LOL

***********************

Life path number

mine is 5 and tats so very true for me wahahahah

***********************

was listenin to this in the morning
simple song
meaningful lyrics
lovin the person for who they are...
am i bein too greedy ..
too ambitious?

Just the way you are

Don't go changing, to try and please me,
You never let me down before,
Don't imagine, you're too familiar,
And I don't see you anymore.

I would not leave you, in times of trouble,
We never could have come this far,
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times,
I'll take you just the way you are.

Don't go trying, some new fashion,
Don't change the colour of your hair,
You always have my, unspoken passion,
Although I might not seem to care.

I don't want clever, conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just want someone, that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew,
What will it take till you believe in me,
The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you, and that's forever,
And this I promise from the heart,
I couldn't love you, any better,
I love you just the way you are.

I don't want clever, conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just want someone, that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.

chinese garden

it was a disappointment
so few lanterns
so sparse
so solitary
so quiet

enough said

luckily for the company ..

was feelin tired .. kept yawnin ..and gettin blur
pardon me ..
wasnt feelin too good -_-" must be the haze..

i wanna watch "IMAGINE ME AND U" AND "MIAMI VICE"!!
Someone accompany me?

heard that John tucker must die is a cheesy show from reviews of CNY
shall skip tat LOL another typical "get back at bf" show.. not my cup of tea >.<
yes yes
i am choosy abt my shows ..

my bag from taiwan is here
heh
worth the hassle of orderin and receiving

gonna collect from the organiser and its a good price too!


was scarin myself and mz LOL
i tot i ordered the bag but posted in wrong thread then panic then went to check another thread
heaved a sign of relief
that happens when there's same site diff organiers -_-" luckily there's mz to clarify
cant wait for my big bag
hope the material's good
i love black bags..

and i bought more charms
will be makin more accessories
time pass so fast when u are engrossed in doin somethin
and i have 3 critics at home.. -_-" commentin on my end pdts and how to improverise the designs

took out the previous post cause i was re-readin it and found it to be "abit" racist
but the gist is there

there's no need to envy the others
to wish this, wish that
wish it can happen to u

your friends got married young
congrats them
BUT U
dun need to feel pressured to be rushed into a marriage
to have a guy
to have someone..

i know
everyone needs someone to be called THEIRS
BUT without that someone
i believe u can still survive as well ..

ok.. maybe i wun understand..
but there are also many singles out there ..

couple can have couple things to do
friends can have friends' things to do

even couple things can find friends to do .. thats wat i believe
its not makin use of friends

if they are your friends
they will understand
everyone needs some companionship

if u wan companionship
i give u my time and my ear

cause i believe u will do the same for me when i am down or just need someone to be there..
these are called friends..

sometimes when u dun actually go lookin for love
love might come lookin for you

sometimes when u try to hard
it might elude u even more ..
so .. let nature take its course..

u wanna switch vocation
GO FOR IT ..
u know wat u wan .. wat u wan to gain ..
dun hesitate

grab the opportunity when it comes knockin at your door ..

dun feel tat u are less fortunate than others..
there's more to life then material possessions..

u will have your chance when u reach up high...
u will get wat u wan after the hardships
and treasure wat u have even more ..

having a bf should compliment your life
should be a plus pt
should not make it an absolute

not a liability ..

part of the lyrics
"everybody needs somebody
u are not the only one "

hardy won the singapore idols
he garnered almost 70% of the votes

personally i prefer JON although i must admit Hardy's vocal skills are better honed then Jon's
i just prefer Jon's low husky voice..
esp good for songs by bands such as Snow Patrol's

Hardy's performance in the finals.. enjoy

"u give me wings when i am falling
u lift me up when i am down
taking me high
touchin the sky
then u make me fly~"


.......now i am stronger because of u

placid gfs

read xiaxue's post WEAK WOMEN ..

and i actually agree with her LOL
not a 100% at least 75%
with reference to that gal involved
THINK WOMEN ARE WEAK

personally i hate being a WALLFLOWER
FOR FUCK WOULD I WAN TO STAND THERE AND LOOK PRETTY

come on
u are yourself
your bf is your bf
u two are together BUT it doesnt mean u have to be HIS SHADOW OR just being a TAG ALONG
wtf
pls stand up to yourself

the last thing i wan to do when i meet his friends is to be a wallflower
the pt of followin along IS NOT TO BE HIS SHADOW
FUCKIN WASTE OF TIME ISNT IT?

well tats me
i try to befriend his friends or strike some conversations
so its easier to get along
we might not be close at least when my guy is busy i can always chat with the others
i dun mind being a looker for a SHORT WHILE

he knows it
i dun like certain stuff and he doesnt force me to do it..
we have vastly different hobbies
but it doesnt mean we dun have common hobbies
hobbies are somethin u LIKE TO DO
not to "tag along with the guy" to do

a sentence from XX's blog

"Eric's girlfriend has been sitting quietly beside him for around, I say, 7 hours? or so, WATCHING HIM PLAY DOTA AND MJ PLACIDLY."

I can only say
the gf has real good patience
i will be EXTREMELY BORED to see a guy play game for so many hrs LOL
was NEVER THE GAMER
hahahaha my patience runs thin easily
longest stretch i ever play a game was for 3 mths? and it was not even everyday
its either U join him or do other stuff do just sit there keep quiet

and the bastard actually said such thing to such a demure and patient gf

"Eric hollered suddenly, in front of 8 people or so, "Next time if you want to sleep don't come at all ok? Very irritating!"

In a super pissed off voice!"

serious
if i am Eric's friend, i would give him a tongue lashin!
i hate guys who belittle women
thought gals are playthins or docile issit?
when u have such a good gf
pls praise your gal
make her feel important
she's accomapanyin u at least give her credit for it
dun scream at her cause u are a fuckin bad mood

i accompanyin HIM to do alot of things BUT i learnt from HIM and it became things that i know and get to do myself
i dun wan it be "HIS" things only
i dun wan to be excluded from HIS life

unless it really somethin i do not like LOL
thats another story

there are stuff a couple can do
there are stuff which FRIENDS can do

another thing abt sporean guys
they have a "GOLDEN MOUTH"
pls be expressive
if you love a gal
tell her how much she meant to u
make her feel it
if your gf dressed up for u
praise her efforts
if she takes the effort to make u stuff
treasure it, display it
if she takes the effort to buy u stuff
accept it even though it might not be to your likin
its the THOUGHTS

i know wat it meant to be a wallflower
i will not keep quiet and HE knows it
hahahahah

i know kaye's referrin me to "Ms asshole-can-change"

doesnt sound nice
but hey its optimistic alright

there had been incidents that made them hate each other to the guts
those who know will know those who do not know i will not elaborate

but i feel HE has been changin for the better...
i know it will take time
i dunno whether it will be back to square one after he run out of steam or patience
but i know he's takin the effort to change

i know my limits
i wan my freedom
i wan my friends
i wan my own personal time
i wan my own individuality

**************

had been alienated from my friends with my ex
been too dependent on him
for companionship, for emotional support
i will not be weak anymore
i will make sure i can survive very well on my own

comments?

kinda bored .. hahahah

Geraldine, you love to indulge in a Little Personal Time

For someone who's as on-the-go as you, the greatest indulgence of all is a hearty dose of rest and relaxation. Charming and fun, you love spending time with family and friends, but there's also a mellow and quiet side of you that relishes time alone with your thoughts.

Whether you like to take long walks, catch an afternoon blockbuster, or check out a hip new art exhibit, you like exploring the world on your own terms and learning more about yourself in the process. Not one to harp on the past or obsess about the future, you have a confident and graceful way of savoring each experience as it comes. Stay cool!

Indulge Your Senses?How Should You

Geraldine, your gift for gab is Voicing Your Opinions!

When you open your mouth, it's usually because you have something significant to say. You're not one to beat around the bush, particularly when it comes to important issues. After all, you connect with people by forming an intellectual bond and letting them know what's on your mind.

While you don't necessarily have to agree with everyone's views, it's important that conversations allow people to express themselves and their opinions. From trivial matters to important debates, you tend to keep one eye focused on the ball and the other on the bigger picture so that your opinions are informed and balanced. Go ahead, speak up!

What's Your Gift for Gab?

lunch with mz

MZ came over to have lunch with me at my sch's cafe
been talkin abt .. *shh...* lol

heh had udon and cakies .. not bad for a sch's cafe
highly recommend
and the portion is big woh

and i swear i did not cheat!
and my result is the same ...great minds think alike?

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart. In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved. You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change. You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please. Your ideal relationship is comforting. You crave a relationship where you always feel warmth and love. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

not all applies to me.. hmmm
but one thing for sure ..
i like to be told i'm loved, i like my guy to be expressive
to feel the "warmth and love"

attracted to split personality? that's tricky
i like a straight forward guy instead, one that is easy to understand
cause i am not easily understandable

i like a relationship with lots of passion and commitment
i like to find things to do together
to discover new stuff, new environment
i dun like stagnant situations, i get bored easily

oh and i learned a few new words today

THE ORIGINAL SEVEN INTELLIGENCES

Howard Gardner first identified and introduced to us seven different kinds of intelligence in Frames of Mind.
· Linguistic intelligence: a sensitivity to the meaning and order of words.

· Logical-mathematical intelligence: ability in mathematics and other complex logical systems.

· Musical intelligence: the ability to understand and create music. Musicians, composers and dancers show a heightened musical intelligence.

· Spatial intelligence: the ability to "think in pictures," to perceive the visual world accurately, and recreate (or alter) it in the mind or on paper. Spatial intelligence is highly developed in artists, architects, designers and sculptors.

· Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence: the ability to use one's body in a skilled way, for self-expression or toward a goal. Mimes, dancers, basketball players, and actors are among those who display bodily-kinesthetic intelligence.

· Interpersonal intelligence: an ability to perceive and understand other individuals -- their moods, desires, and motivations. Political and religious leaders, skilled parents and teachers, and therapists use this intelligence.

· Intrapersonal intelligence: an understanding of one's own emotions. Some novelists and or counselors use their own experience to guide others.

so what is yours?

i am still findin my calling
my strongest link

if you look at my side navigation carefully
i have added a few links to "MY READS"
wat i read durin my free time..
and they are good stuff..
TAKE MY WORD FOR IT

the first THREE
"yawning bread"
"Mr Wang"
"Dr Huang"

are commentary websites which usually touched on topics close to home ie SINGAPORE..
the style and depictions by author of Yawning Bread might be alittle bias .. esp towards the attitude and treatment of homosexuals in singapore
he is PRO_GAY movement and is ernestly fightin for the rights of them in singapore. But still he offers very detailed views on some of the topics in singapore
for most of this topics, there are very details explanations and useful links to the causes and the effects of the various topics

the second, "Mr WAng", is a lawyer who blogs about the current affairs from the viewpoint as a citizen and parent..

the third is a reader of "Mr Wang" but nonetheless passionate about the affairs of singapore..

my current read

Singapore Education System: On the right track?
exploring the various attempts by the government to "improve" and "strenthen" the educational system

the education system had been too restricted and limited..
talents were recognised as those who were good in MATHS OR SCIENCE..
glad that the government decided to change it and widen it to various aspects..

good for those who are not academically inclined..

have a friend who wasnt strong in "MATHS n Science" but she excel in music and languages but during our time, there wasnt any emphasis in such aspects and she had to follow along the "education path" that the governement had laid out.

Now i wish her success in her passion for music
heh
i remembered i was so shocked to hear that she stopped piano for years then jumped 4 grades when she decide to continue
i applaud her
there's a will there's a way
time is not a factor ..

if u are passionate abt somethin BESIDE "MATHS n Science"
hope u find the calling soon
and fulfill it

rantings

hmm
was talkin to my friend the last few days.. and conclusion is
"u never know hardship till u encountered one yourself, u never know shame till u are shamed upon"

she has an "acquaintance" who is the only child thus very doted upon by the parents and CLAIMS she has a VERY GOOD "HUBBY"
her parents give in to her
her bf gives in to her
shelterin her under their protective umbrella
she can be the sweet little gal that everyone likes ..
she looks sweet, sound sweet, act sweet in front of ppl
but to me its too sweet for my taste but nonetheless

TAT gal sound so cutesy on her blog, sayin things like "my hubby this my hubby tat"
gets on my nerves sometimes but nonetheless.. she blogged mostly ordinary mundane stuff which i will not elaborate

BUT my perception of tat gal changed when my friend told me wat SHE SAID to her

SHE IS FUCKIN ARROGANT
she ASSUMES PPL IN NORMAL STREAM CANT STUDY
wat the fuck is tat?
being in NORMAL STREAM does not mean the end of the world or watsoever
it just meant they are slower to catch up only or choose to study at a more leisure pace..
i have friends who were from normal BUT aced their O'levels
and she actually said somethin like
"oh express ppl do not need to study so hard like u"

i was from express and i still had to study my ass off to get mediocre grades which i wasnt satisfied with

she is either too bloody confident or just full of arrogance.

and they met up after graduation
she asked " where are u studyin now"
my friend replied "poly"
and she said haughtily "oh i do not need to go poly to get a diploma, i'm paid to study"
"where?"
"childcare"

HAHAHAHHAHHAHAA
TWO WORDS
SORE LOSER

for fuck would someone who can go to poly wan to do private course which is not readily recognised by local uni
unless she cannot get in tat is.

and for childcare..
ANYONE CAN BE A TEACHER ..
i have mum's friends who are in their 40's being paid to study and when graduated, be childcare teacher too ..
being a CERTIFIED CHILDHOOD EDUCATION TEACHER AND AN ORDINARY CHILDCARE TEACHER are poles apart..
i have friends who studied early childhood education in poly and went on to become childcare teachers.. those are of higher calibre..

so next time before she shoot off her mouth and despise ppl
look to HERSELF FIRST..

do u have wat it takes to demoralise others?
do u even process the words thru your brain first before it came out of your mouth or being the goody, pampered gal, your parents just gave in to watever u said or else just pretend all that u said are true,correct or "acceptable"

damn i hate such ppl ..

and no
i am not sayin all express ppl despise the others..
she's an exception ..

i never know such ppl exist, ppl who were damn arrogant or have such behaviour
havent been expose to alot of ppl durin sec sch..
cause my intake was small ..
i basically stuck around the few classes and selected groups of ppl throughout the sec sch yrs

my intake had only 4 express classes and 2 normal ..
i did not interact much with ppl in normal stream.. not because we were haughty
but because we were on DIFFERENT BLOCKS..
my class was on the slope, facin the expressway while the normal classes were on the second level on another block so there werent much chance to see or interact with them at all ..
my sec sch life had been.. quite monotonous as wat most ppl would say.. nothin extraordinary ever happened to me...
life just passed ..
i remembered the times i sat with my friend from another class at the corridor admiring the sunrise(btw i reach sch at 640)
readin or just chatting
class schedules were always packed to the brim.. sch end at 230 or later..
i'm always the one to attend all the remedials... esp maths..
and i will go straight home..tired and dazed..
i do not understand why ppl will wan to loiter around when during my sec sch days all i wanted to do was to rush home, take a shower and nap lol

then choir practises..
yes
i WAS FROM CHOIR
but do not ask me to sing now ..

i was lucky enough to travel with my choir..
been to hongkong, australia, bangkok even europe(italy&venice)

and tats abt all hahahah
boring life aint it
and i never fell in love AT ALL
cause i couldnt stand boys

they were BOYS at that time wat..
and i was quite the tomboy myself .. no interest in boys
been a late bloomer in relationships..

i know there are ppl who had a few to "test out"
but that was in the past
for future references heh

boys.. are just boys till they know the various responsibilities they have to take on..
be it personal, social, work, family

HE came back with me on sat night and left on sun afternoon..
keepin me company .. watched some DVDS at home and just lazin around.

went out with family for dinner at one of the coffeeshops.. they had nice fishhead steamboat and decided to bring family there to try .. its good .. and teochew ..
ordered some dishes that we hadnt had in a long while






family bondin re-enforced over meals
it just need alittle effort on everyone's part
there's no such thing as "no time" or "too busy"
if we dont do more bondin now..
there will be even lesser time together when the second and third one establish their careers..

*******************

and i had new stuff..
gonna get more DIY stuff soon ..

pardon the poor lighting

on another note ..

Here is your horoscope for Tuesday, September 12:

You have lots of pursuits -- practical, financial and social. So many, in fact,
that you can easily feel overwhelmed. While you love to take on more than you
can handle, scale down if you want to excel at anything


OOPS
shall have to sieve out and scale down my pursuits already ...
