In addition, I was trying to finalise my FYP back then. Ugh, thinking back it was really depressing to hear others already confirming their projects and yourself still a lost sheep. Luckily it was the exams for him so we didn't have to squeeze out time for each other which would have been hard and tiring.
FYP
Went to Dr Gan's briefing on 11 Apr on his expectations etc for his projects. At that point in time, my choices were left with Dr Gan's and Dr Andrew's projects. The former specialises in microelectonics and the lather in organic synthesis, which are of totally different nature. And anyway, I went back to school on 18 Apr for a discussion with both of them. Dr Gan said to wait to 8 May before he would confirm his list of students.
Since my first choice is microelectronics, I had to wait till his list was out before I decide if I had to do with Dr Andrew cos I'm not so confident with organic chemistry now. Furthermore, the basics of organic chem needed for the synthesis experiments would definitely be a great challenge to me if I have to do self-study. Luckily, Dr Andrew is not as popular with my batch of students because he hasn't lectured us before so his list wouldn't be filling up as fast.
The 3 weeks waiting for was not wasted. Dr Gan confirmed me on 9 May. My project title is: Hydrothermal synthesis of rare earth hydroxide and oxide nanotubes. Nanotechnology. Microelectronics. Hmm... starting to do my literature review and background research already. Cos Dr Gan's asking for 5-page write-up with 20 references due when school starts next in August. And i'm planning on submitting before the new sem so I can concentrate on the experimental part and my other commitments.
Tuition
From last week till the June school holidays are over, tuition with Jess will be once a week since I really need a break from rushing to tuitions after work. And I cannot afford to let her slacken down now that she has shown some improvement in her work.
Last tuesday, she gave me a scorecard for her mid-years. I'm quite happy with her results... except we will need to do more on her english reading and understanding which will help in her literature ba. And it's quite expected to get such grades for her humanities. I'm guessing the history grade won't be any any better than her geog and lit.
Eng: 58.3/100 C5
MT: 70.5/100 A2
Maths: 80/100 A1
she would have gotten 85 marks if she hadn't wrote her workings in pencil which resulted in 5 marks being deducted.
Sci: 75/100 A1
Geog: 58/100 C5
Lit: 41.4/100 D7
Hist: duno yet
27 Apr
The first date in a month I think. Caught 'Forbidden Kingdom' with him. Hahaha..... it was a lame show leh cos it's really crappy watching chinese kungfu movies with english dialogues.
I was sad that Definitely, Maybe was left with only 1 or 2 screenings with bad timings. Even Sex is Zero 2 also not much better. As with The Other Boleyn Girl, I think I'm gonna watch them online. hehe...
8 May
A simple birthday celebration for Marcus, cos we had just celebrated mum's birthday. Surprised him with a blockcake with a green power ranger picture on it. And the next month we have dad's birthday as well... and that's after my IA, so should be able to go out for dinner or something.
14 May
I trim my hair for a new look. Okay, so maybe it's not entirely new look. but at least I feet different. Cos my parting went from left to right and it's not because I made it, but I woke up with it and it has stuck. It's layered now, so I can probably go highlight my hair soon. And I mean diy lah... cos there's still a half bottle left from cny.
Huixin's mother passed away in the morning on Wednesday due to a sudden heart attack. Even though she had no history. Life' so unpredictable and fragile isn't it. Heard from xin that 2 weeks earlier the whole family had just gone on a china trip and the day before they family had a mothers' day dinner with the other aunties and granny. So everything was fine until it crashed down on her. At least her mother was happy when she left and the only regrets she had were probably that she couldn't attend xin's convocation in July and see any of her daughters getting hitched and married.
I saw xin on Thursday and she looked better than she sounded. I know she can't possibly be better... so Xin, be strong at least till the wake is over this afternoon.
And gera, you aren't alone. I'm gonna eat with you till you ain't gonna be some beanpole. You two are dearest to me even though we haven't been seeing each other.
We can cry together another time, just us.

monday was children's day. did not specially buy anything for meiyi. nothing for marcus either. coz somehow no time to go shopping... only got them some snacks, more like junk food la. good thing actually coz she told me her father didn't cook dinner that day, so the snacks fed her. ha...
got A+ for the crystal quiz on monday. Fu helped alot... thanks dear. the previous two times, got D+ and B lor. anyway emailed tim white, and he said i would need at least a C+ for the next quiz in 2 week's time to get overall B. hoping to squeeze for a final A-, but B+ also buay pai la. keke...
tuesday, i did go sch but chiew hoon and avril didn't go for morning lect, so i quite sian to go. but nvm i crashed Fu's lect. saw jiale and yiyang, again... bet they were saying why i keep going to year1's lect. whatever with them~ i went for tutorials though. and was happy with myself for finding oli to accompany me lunch. thanks idiot.
wednesday of coz had to go sch. got quiz mah. ms3001 quiz... of all things, study on ceramics yet only come out phase diagram. and the phase diagram so happening ask us to sketch TTT diagram for alloy... think my fate for that quiz gone liao la. crystal ended slightly early and i went home straight, coz no tuition. or so i thought.... just when i was tossing on bed trying hard to take a nap, got an sms from meiyi asking where was i. stunned. i thought no tuition mah. thought on thursday de... either i remember wrongly or she told me wrongly in the first place. so rushed to and fro back.... shag after that.
yesterday didn't go sch. plain lazy. shall not find excuses for myself.
today went sch. coz i wanted to go the ms3003 tutorial i missed on monday. so felt fruitful after that. except i wanted to go nie to makan, but Fu... nvm not a big deal. just that i must vent out la... i want eat nie western food!
this week many got interviews and i wasn't chosen by the interviewing company for an interview. so i'm gonna either be sent to the second or third choice company or... god knows what. not gonna think about this now.yar, i s/u econs liao... some talks here and there had made me almost indecisive over this issue. but eventually decided to do so, because i really don't want to spend too much time on it to ensure i get at least a B+ something like that. now i just hope to find enough time to read up and get a C which is enough to pass.
i think people will say i've got no aim?
- maybe my goals are not that clear that's all...
- i just want to be happy :)

Valencia called me when I was walking to the LRT station after tuition last night. She said "jie jie is crying". So I asked for Rachel but she didn't want to answer.....
Valencia was obedient yesterday and she kept answering "orrh" when I told her to call me when they want to talk to me and tell her to accompany her sis who's crying in the room... Know what she did yesterday that made me kinda melted down... She used a pencil to trace out some word on my right cheek which I couldn't decipher until she wrote on my under-plam the words 'bye bye'. Aww, such innocence.
Yar, if you haven't guessed by now, it was indeed my last lesson with them until further notice(if there ever will be another lesson). Ok, I had wanted to bring my camera intially but I thought I was being overly emotional so I decided against it. Now I kinda regret it =( but it's alright la coz I know they won't just forget me, neither will I forget them...
Becoz I knew I won't be able to see them when they get their exam results, and I knew they are going to perform up to my expectations so I gave them the stickers they wanted yesterday. Rachel got her disney princess ones and Valencia the bear-bear ones. I like them coz they bring me joy even though they are such 捣蛋鬼 that never fail to give me a mess to clean up in the study room.
I supposed Rachel looks on me as an elder sis coz I'm always helping her with her science cards, those zoologist, botanist etc cards remember? And I often wonder why her mother doesn't give a hand. Maybe her mother is just tired from work and keeping the family together. I also wonder many other things such as their financial status. Well, did I mention before that it seems to me her mother is the breadwinner. The father used to work as a delivery-man when I i first started coaching them. After he lost the job and switched jobs or something, he just stayed home to sleep the time away... A good news is the father has gotten his taxi license not long ago though.
I always think to myself how the mother manages becoz the kids told me sometimes she'd distributes flyers at night or sell kuehs on special days, but I see that all over the house shes uses branded stuffs and she buys things for the girls quite often. Just last week, she bought an electronic organ for them. I became convinced that for many things, we cannot see from the surface but that every mother loves her children and afterall, 家家都有本难念的经。
Anyway I got stunned for a moment when Rachel said she asked her mother to get me to come back if she scored 70 and above for her maths. I didn't know she liked me that much to negotiate with her mother. I thought she doesn't like her aunt and cousin to teach her only. But now I know she really enjoyed my lessons.
Rachel, teacher Janice will miss you.
And you too, Valencia.

The following error occurred: Access denied by access control list. Could not open error file
The following error occurred: Access denied by access control list. Could not open error file
is real. And only applies to me, my computers and/or internet connection. Becoz when i used joe's laptop, it gave the same stupid message. I don't know what's the error alright... and i'm pissed.
Not only does my tagboard not work, but i couldn't visit livejournal.com as well... So what am i going to do with the sprees i joined over there? Sucks... .....ah! Someone please help me to check the updates of my stuffs there, Fu pretty pretty pls?
Yesterday:
Jessica was great coz i was tired and she did a topical test on circles and got 26/30 while i practically rotted.

Valencia was ok but naughty coz she didn't want to let me leave!! and she grabbed my legs and snatched my flip-flops after i finally managed to "steal" the keys from her and let myself out... 15minutes of ordeal~ haha little elf.
Rachel was good coz i finally got her motivated to finish her math when i timed her 1 minute for 1 long division working but she didn't help me to get the keys from val coz she was happily playing the gameboy. nufff~Labels: Tuition

tell me cannot tuition when i was already standing outside your door but no one answered coz no one's home. tell me you sent your handphone for service and that my number was stored inside. hey, i remembered i gave you a card leh... fine, so you lost it. and how the hell did you answer my call if your handphone was servicing. don't tell me you divert... i don't believe.
usually i won't be so fed up but count yourself unlucky that i had a long day today...
i went for chem tutorial coz the first paper next wed is it. and pretty much becoz i gotta hand in the XRD assignment i happily forgot to bring for submission the previous day. not forgetting also, to photocopy the 武林密集 ie. the past tutorial solutions etc from avril... and that was a little problem in printing avril's assignment becoz of the rapid pi program she used that's not in the school's computers and a laptop that just wouldn't connect to the SAC's printer. but it was solved eventually. when avril's last wangjunling's lecture finally ended, we had lunch together. that time was 3.20pm... wa biang...
somemore i had to go collect some loots from lala at boonlay place. yeah, xl's item is one of those. can't believe i'm so good at nuahing that i took so long to get my stuffs from her. well, at least i went to get it. it's quite troublesome la, from campus gotta take bus 199 and transfer to bus 99 then walk a bit before reaching her house. after that still had to carry so many barangs and avril's not-light guest book and walk to lakeside mrt station. and when i reach home already almost 5pm, considering the tuition was scheduled at 6pm i had to leave house at 5.30pm?
so of coz i buay song la...
and the worst thing is i have no days for you to change to leh... tomorrow meiyi's tuition cannot change de and my saturday please don't touch. oops, i just got a call from rachel. ok, tomorrow tuition at 11am coz it's meet-the-parents day so no school for the 2 sisters = can tuition early. at least i get to keep my saturday...

lately it is just so cold... so i'm always not without my jacket.for most of this week, i've been cooping at home. coz just moving around tires me and i will start feeling breathless... so going to ntu is a no-no becoz there are so many stairs to climb. at least now i think i don't cough as much and as badly. so i should be going to school on monday...
on thursday, i went to rachel's place for tuition... and somehow, the first hour was spent playing with valencia's and her new hamsters. their father got it from his friend and there were four of them, two each. i mean i'm not supposed to be playing with her or her hamsters, but then it's quite hard to get her to stop. so i was like helping her to slice the carrot and trying to 'pull' Carrot and Bubble apart as they fought for a sunflower seed. yup, those were their names rachel got for hers.
and the second hour was spent finding food in the kitchen coz she was hungry, so we found those small cheesy sandwiched cookies and we shared a bread i brought. haha... erm, i think we spent less than 45 mins, or maybe even 30 mins doing work, with the rest of the time chatting and accompanying her to boo-boo. lol... ya she did that. she even asked me to wipe her bum bums for her, but then i said huh! and she just said "i knew you scared." lol... i told her i wasn't scared, just didn't want to do it. so she cleaned up on her own...
oops then her mum called, and i had to pick up the phone becoz she was in the toilet mah. auntie said they(including valencia) were going to be late.. and so rachel and i took turns playing on the gameboy haha... valencia didn't give me trouble that night, as the whole 3+ hours passed by so fast that i didn't feel tired at the end. think it won't be this easy the next time...
and yup, i finally did check out the flower parts for jessica. now i know the stamen is the male part which comprises the anther and filament. and the female parts include the stigma, style, ovary and ovules. :) yesterday was my first completed month with her, and even though her parents were out. erm, her mum was out shopping with her friends and her dad was out shopping alone. that's what jess told me anyway. ya even though her parents were out, her dad prepared an envelope with my pay, and on it he wrote: thanks for the hard work, miss janice. hehe... i can fly. lol... oh i still have not seen her dad before, but her mum told me i may be able to see him next wednesday. keke, don't know why but she also said that her husband is quite plump. haha...
cny is coming, and i still need some new shoes and pants and dresses. had wanted to go shopping today but mum needs me to do something for her. it's some lucky draw thing, so i better have some luck. but maybe they will go shopping tomorrow then i can go too. otherwise i will only have the next weekends le.. so today Fu will be here to pei me bah...
i love weekends... ^-^

finally i can upload images le... becoz i was smart to clear cache and those temporary internet files haha. lately the rain has been crying almost everyday, if not the entire day. so gloomy. the pic cute hor~was so sleepy when i reached home last night that i didn't bother to blog. had dinner at clementi's botak jones - which was not bad. waited for maybe 45minutes for the food to come? becoz the business was really thriving... but i don't think i'm gonna eat in the near future... scary lor the servings were large! i ordered fish and chips, but i only ate the fish haha...
before that was at collin's house playing mahjong. a pity the session was a little too short... well, becoz of my tuition in the morning lor and it's the 3.5 hour one. tuition from 11.30am to 3pm lor. bleh. was tired after that man.... and still had to travel in the bumpy 184 from bukit panjang to clementi. should have taken the mrt haha... but it's good la, at least now i know the route it takes.
oh by the way, i got my tuition pay from the aunite le. yeah! but then for the party next week ah... aiya, sure broke again. and so when i reached clementi, i went to deposit a small portion of the amount into my bank account, the rest keep with me first lor. this kinda sums up the whole of yesterday...
mummy and i are worried(but she's more) that the food may not be enough; so we will be grilling some chicken wings etc. dear mum has been helping alot alot... touched and the sc11 guys so funny... they were like asking me what's the dress code for next saturday. i mean guys usually don't ask one mah... and they even went on to discuss what colour to wear. felt special haha... maybe becoz i'm january baby mah, first among us to be 21. but still feel special... keke.
lemme think over and see how... becoz now i have to decide between the sc11 dress or mum's dress or ping's top. or maybe there will be another choice coming up... hmm. so today will be staying at home to nuah and rest becoz Fu is not feeling healthy enough to go out with me and anyway tomorrow will be a long day for us both, so it's better to rest lor. i can always go out another time... hee~

tired.
woke up around 0630 then nuah a while on bed then packed bag and left home around 0720. that was so early lor... considering the weather was(is) so nice for sleeping in. 0830 lecture on numerical methods which was a good start to maths lah... becoz i haven't touched maths for like more than 1 semester and this module i really hope to do well in, so as to pull up the GPA lor.
played badminton after that... was quite fun, maybe becoz i haven't played for quite some time. almost had a little round blister on my right index finger, but dear yik gave me a plaster before it could develop further and risk bursting and pain! haha... thanks yik~
after that met ping at cck... wah, now i recall something i hot ah. i left the SRC and waited more than 15 minutes for the 179 to appear and it was packed(only the front)... so i couldn't board and had to wait for like 10 more minutes before i could finally board one. then made me reach cck around 3pm lor. hai hao ping ended lecture late so i reached earlier than her, thus i went to get the assessment books for my p6 girl...
pampered~ ping bought me a nice polka dots red and grey top, something like a tunic. that was after i convinced her not to buy me another dress that i tried on. coz she kept saying cuteeeee~~~~ when i wore that dress lor. lolz. i'm not cute lah. nobody says i'm cute, erm maybe Fu. but if only him, so of coz i know is biased de. haha... anyway, i admit i look kinda ahem cute when i wear dresses, i don't know why. other girls wear will bring out the sophisicated feel, but me, i just look cute. omg! hehe, but i don't mind being cute for a few more years...
then rushed to tuition... i'm begining to like jessica already. she is of a different sort of innocent than the other two girls i coach. time passed fast when i was coaching her. and her mum was nice to me, she gave me a slice of honeydew(the more expensive type, you know something like gold kiwi and green kiwi), and was telling me she got it for like $7!! omg. so i think the one slice i got could have easily cost erm $1? haha... okok crap.
then came home to find wilson at my house. why leh? watch tv show again lor. haha... my mum was saying why this wilson so funny de, a guy also hooked onto drama. lol. that's why you are so dan chun that my mum let you come my house la haha.
chatted with him... and just now chatted with tudi and chiewhoon on msn. realised that inviting so many people is really like finding trouble for myself. but oh well, since it's once-in-a-lifetime, i think i shall go all the way. and i saw my mummy's photos, her 21st birthday also alot of people and she wore pretty pretty and there were lotsa food. so i think everything will work out, the food, the space, the entertainment and i need all your understanding coz i may not have time to entertain everyone...
okie, panda goes to sleep now.

the internet connection was bad this morning; the webpages wouldn't load for nearly 3 hours... ain't sure if it was the router or singnet though i'm quite certain it's not the router because all the lights that were supposed to light up lit up. whatever it was, it just made me frustrated. coz i had thought the results were supposed to be out today, but apparently i got into the website only to find that the expected release date of results is tomorrow! >.<
so while troublshooting and waiting for the connection to come on and cursing everything, i did some things...
sc11: the order of unwrapping our presents
rachel: my first tutee; the elder of two sisters i'm coaching now
rachel: my first tutee; the elder of two sisters i'm coaching now
valencia: my mischievous little tutee
in case you're wondering, i didn't take those photos. i merely bluetoothed from rachel's hp last night. and talking about last night's tuition... i had a bad stomachache halfway through val's tuition, lucky for me, val was getting easier to handle lately. even she herself asked me 我现在比较好哦？因为你教我，我会了嘛。以前很坏哦？因为（以前）我不会嘛。her words made me smile and you may say forget the pain. haha...
but the unlucky thing last night was: i left the house and then i felt this extreme pain which made me realise i needed toilet!! lol... so what to do? couldn't turn back wad. somemore it was raining kinda big and so i just bear until i reached cck and rushed to find toilet in lot1 because the one in the mrt station was being renovated or something. lol... and when i finally got home, my parents didn't forget to ask why i was later than usual last night.
haha, don't know if i was in luck or what. =D
about 4 more days to New Year... and i still need to squeeze in a day to go tpy. at least before school starts in less than 2 weeks.
Fu, i'm not finding excuses ah... but the week before last, went out a twice with friends + the chalet. last week it poured on days i'm free and i was out a few days to celebrate christmas. this week almost half the week gone liao; only left friday because tomorrow i'm gonna be downcasted coz of the results. next week also left only thursday and friday. looking at this, i shall try my very best to go down this friday... and/or next firday. yar, what's that in tpy for me to shop ah? so i may walk around a bit mah... haha me love shopping!

today is 冬至 thus praying to ancesters. so there will be a small feast later for lunch. for now, my breakfast shall be this:
汤圆 - it's winter!
didn't help mum to make them this year because she had already made them when i came home last night. which explains why the quantity dropped significantly this year, haha. slept after dinner last night coz was simply exhausted.
the little two wimps, i tell you i was almost not their match. rach was sick(again), but not as bad as the last time. however, it just the same because when you're sick, you just wanna sleep. it's already hard to keep her awake and attentive. then val must come in and started singing 我的心里只有你，没有他... and made us all laugh. the two of them were watching some chinese show, i think it's 喜临门 when i came over. they must have learned that from the show.
finally val's turn for tuition, we started off well except for her constant singing of the above phrase. but she's really a mischief; quietly waited till her mum went off to yoga class and got herself a pepsi from the fridge. then she must play with her demin jacket and knocked off the glass and split the pepsi all over her mum's desk. so who's gotta clean up the mess? me! i was already tired from the pie-making yesterday afternoon that i wasn't in the mood to tuition any extra minute to make up for those wasted on cleaning up. and anyway i wasn't obliged to either.
just checked the chocs. i don't get it. they still aren't hard, enough. i mean it's hard, but they can't be removed from the molds without altering the shape.

tiredness. wanna go to bed soon...oli's msg woke me up at 6.30 in the morning. though i ignored it, i didn't sleep alot more. woke up around 7+am and to think i slept at 1+am last night.
then i went online to do some stuffs before going out to meet friends at 1130. mum made spagetti for me as my early lunch before i left. reached sam's house at about 12noon. then mahjong till 4+pm. i won quite a bit from the start, but then sam kept continuing his winning strike so lost back after a while. i would have lost ten odd bucks if not for the second last round, in which i got 5 flowers tiles...and won! lol, somemore 4 of the tiles are 'eat' coz i got double no.1 flowers and centipede + cockeral. haha, it's just lucky me that i didn't lose... i still won $3.20 at the end.
on the other hand, mg quite sad la, 1 house lost to 3 others. then we went to BPP eat at ljs while sam went off to work. so mg treated me and i didn't have to spend a cent. good for me coz i had tuition at 6pm so i surely need to eat something since it was to end at 9.30pm. made it just on the dot to rach's house. but even if i were a little late, i think it's alright de, just that i couldn't go home earlier.
tonight tuitions were extremes. rachel was the enthu one as usual...she was already waiting for me in the study room before i arrived. we made lotsa progress but when it's val's turn. nightmare! well, i should have known her mother went out for a while when it was her tuition time. she completely got out of my control; she went in and out of the room, raised her legs on the table, turned her back to me, complained she want to sleep/watch tv. and she ignored everything i said!
haha, but i've got my ways. i tried to make her feel bad at her behaviour, then said i will tell her mother if she continued her way. and i said if she'd listened to me, we could do fast and end on time for her to watch at least half an hour of the 9 o'clock show she wanted to watch. well, i knew she must be brooding over monday coz i ended at 10pm, and so she couldn't see even a minute of the show.
maybe it's my words, maybe it's because her mother came home after i said those words, she was more attentive after that. that's why i said patience ah patience... i'm glad i didn't lose my cool. and i don't think i ever will... she'll soon fall under my grasp. lol...
came home and drank some soup. exchanged some words with xl over the checklist. blogged. and now it's my sleeping time le. tomorrow's is the day~

valencia is so funny! and cuteee~when i asked her what she knows, she gave me an innocent look and told me she don't know everything. but when we talked about rachel, she will go "那个 R, A, C, H lor..." when she wants to complain about her sis. lol, and she kept saying how bad she is because she's sure to forget everything i taught her tonight by tomorrow. such a innocent little girl, how to get angry with her right? but she's a little devil also because she likes to disturb us when i'm coaching her sis and perhaps it's due to her inquisitivity, her mother gets irritated by her easily. lol, i think i will need lotsa patience with her...
their mother has very high hopes for them. in layman terms, maybe you can say "kiasu". i mean val will only be in P1 next year and already she made her go for tuition. somemore val's doing the 1000 grammar assessment book without knowing what she's doing. that's why she could tell me 我乱乱做的 so i can only go slow lor. but i would say she's a bright girl from our conversations. the two sisters never fail to entertain me with their stories... from jack their dead terrapin to rach growing red beans and val kena kicked down the bed by rach. and from their stories here and there, i know their mother is working two or three jobs. aiya, how to say leh... i know i will tend to feel for her somehow. bleh.
life's like this... nothing seems to be without hardship. we can only try to enjoy what we are doing and hopefully to live without regrets also. aiya oh my god, why am i saying until like so pessimistic ah. i think it's the lack of slp..
Fu is ignoring my msg... always like this when he reaches home, his game is everything. angry! haha... not with him la. the stupid edit-template page still doesn't work la.

got home around 10pm after buying some things in lot1. tuition ended early because my tutee rachel is sick. she had a high fever of 40C yesternight, and it hasn't resided today but her mum didn't call to cancel the tuition coz rachel said it's ok. she's got positive attitude there... it's something i like about her. but then it proved to be a wrong decision this time because i sensed she was really uncomfortable as usually she would have the air-con switched on but tonight she complained of being cold when there's no wind blowing in from outside the windows and neither the air-con nor the fan was switched on, furthermore the door was closed. tried to encourage her that it's just one more hour, 30 more minutes... until i can bear no more to see her so lethargic compared to her usual chatty self. so, i called it a day about 20 minutes earlier. well, what to expect since she only had porridge and cereal, gruel stuffs make u weak even though it's good for the sick. such an irony
her younger sis, valencia will be having her first session with me on the next lesson as well. wonder how i'm gonna handle two girls... haha but i like them lah. and anyway i think it should be one after the other, if not the both of them sure can flood me with their squabbles. by the way, because rachel improved her math from band3 to band2, so i got her something: nothing fanciful, just a sticker album and a carebears stickers. but i know she will like it. haha i make it sound like i'm so good at buying gifts...
hee~ guess what... i've just bought one of the items for the Christmas exchange parcel i'm preparing. i think i still have two other items to get to complete the parcel. hope i will make this parcel a better gift than last year's stuff toys which junjie received.
yup i went into mini toons just now too. but regretfully, i didn't see any octopus toy that gera mentioned leh. wonder if it's already selling coz gera only said she saw in the mini toons tv advertisment. and the tentative plan was tentative indeed, we are not going vivocity on friday already. huixin gotta register her subjects on fri, and i don't remember whether she said it's to start at 2pm or end at 2pm. but either way, we've decided to settle it nearer to us; coffee bean westmall.
one more thing, oli and ping will be coming over to my house tomorrow! oli said not to be surprised to see who else will turn up, that's because she's still asking some guys who may be free. actually we're supposed to meet somewhere but then it seemed that my house is more attractive. haha no lah, it's because we're meeting in the late afternoon so cannot go k, ping lazy to shop, no movie that all wanna watch, cannot go eat also. thus, i suggested my house and oli suggested baking cake and i, cookies. lol, i remember the first cake i baked, it was too oily and buttery even though it was supposed to be a chocolate cake because i put too much butter. i sincercely pray that tomorrow will not turn out to be a disaster.. but then, disaster or not, i'm sure we'll have fun.
i LOVE having FUN
