Thinking of organising a spree
I am thinking of organising a spree. Just checking if there is enough people to start a spree.
Do take a look at the website and let me know if you are interested. If there are enough people, I will start a spree for this. =D

Still trying to be hopeful
I am still trying to be hopeful. Not a single letter till today and JC people had received the letters. I am hoping that I am on the waiting list whereby once someone rejected the offer, I would get it. I really dreaded people(사랑) talking to me about the letters from uni. It spoils my day(요일). =(
My uncle comforted me that he also received the letter from NTU pretty late so I am still waiting. YOU HEAR THAT NUS AND NTU? You had better send the letter to me asap. =D
Saw a letter addressed to my brother from my uncle’s company. I wondered what is in it. I want to know. I am suspecting that my brother was headhunted by some headhunters. If that is true, my brother might be working alongside with my uncle. Can’t wait for my brother to get home. I am such a busybody. =P
Okay. Tuition assignments had started. So far I had met 2 of my students(학생). 1 from Victoria *sweating* and another is a normal technical student from Hougang. I will be meeting the other student of mine on this coming Tuesday(화요일). Wonder if he/sheis a guy or girl. =D Hopefully a girl cos the previous 2 are guys. -.- No fun. LOL.
So far I already went through half of the Korean(한국) classes. What I learnt are the basic but I can’t catch it when the teacher(선생님) speaks. LOL. She spoke way too fast for me to catch what the heck she was talking about. Haha. To make it worse, the pronunciation of some words are horrible. Such as Sunday is ‘ir yo ir’, 일요일. Its tough. But I guess I am coping well. Afterall I hadn’t had anyone to practise with. Hehe.
Finally bid goodbye to Corner Love, 转角遇到爱.I find it a rather good show. Worth watching. =)

Kelly teaches you how to deal with people on the train and bus
Have you met people who fell asleep the moment they saw others who are in need of a seat more than them board the train or bus? Or perhaps they pretend not to see them or worse saw and refuse to move? Some may even block their way to seats or did not make way for them to even hold on to something.
Kelly got a few ways of dealing with this people:
1. Stare at them till they give up their seats.
2. Pretend to be on the line and criticise them.
3. Tell them that there are people who need the seats more than them. Get them to get up and give up the seat.
Of course this is when you do not have a seat. If have a seat, you can just give up your seat. That’s the simplest.
NOW, what if you met people who decided to argue even after all doing the above 3? Simple, tell them: ‘May God bless you.”

ARGH!
Letter from NTU had been released as well to those admitted to their Business faculty. Till today, I received none of the above. The feeling sucks.
As I was stressed out by the non-receiving of the acceptance letter from NUS and NTU and when I came across the fact that I was terribly shortchanged for working with WPG, I felt even worse. Stressed out from all these and when Darius persuaded me to quit and join him in the relief teaching line, I agreed.
My last day is on next Tuesday and today is 2 of my colleagues’ last day. Then I realized that many of them are leaving WPG before or after I leave. The first 2 days when I joined WPG 2 left, now another 2 and in 3 weeks time another 1. I am grateful that I also decided to leave. Throughout my 1 month plus appointment there, I had been doing filing and more filing. I am not learning anything at all and the reason I stayed put is because I have great colleagues and now they all leaving 1 by 1.
ARGH!!!
Now something happier. I went Body Shop shopping after work today and spent $55.75 on 5 items. Surprised? To be more specific, I brought Passion Fruit Body Scrub – $28.90, Olive Shampoo – $16.90, Vitamin E Eye Cream – $26.90, Lotus Petal Body Lotion – $18.90 and Liquid Concealer – $19.90 (my cousin’s). So how did I managed to pay only $55.75? Simple, I get to enjoy 50% discount because of my friend. Darius, his gf, mum and aunties also get to enjoy the discount, thanks to me. I also extended this discount to a couple of my relatives and friends but they do not have anything on their mind at the moment.
Tomorrow a couple of us will be returning to TP to rent our graduation gown and take the last memory with us before we finally bid goodbye to the school. Gonna miss TP very much though it is only less than stops away from my house. -.- LOL.

Super demoralised
I feel super upset and demoralised now. People with lower GPA than me already received the letter from NUS indicating admission and not to mention people with higher GPA than me also received their acceptance letter. I am guaranteed to receive the rejection letter cos those who got lower GPA got into non-business related degree and those with higher got into business degree.
Sadly to say, I only chose business related degrees and happily put only 2 choices. Now people started telling me that I will get into the degree I wanted, no problem so don’t worry. But WTH, its been a stupid 4 days since Darius received the letter and I still did not receive anything in my mailbox.
I feel so terrible now. I wanted to go apply for NIE and everyone is telling me no. Some even tell me to try SIM for the January intake. But people, with a GPA 3.44, isn’t it not worth it at all to go to SIM? If you tell me to try SIM with a GPA of 3.0 I may still do it but I have an overall GPA of 3.44, it make me feel so wasted.
I don’t want to join the workforce with just a diploma cert. I wanted something more for a better future. Heard that NTU had also sent out their letters. The 1st batch to Enginneering accepted students had been sent a few days ago and the next batch will be next month.
Worst of all is my brother told me that rejection letter will be sent 1 month later. ARGH!!! SPARE ME AND JUST SEND THAT STUPID LETTER TO ME!
I had been comforting myself that the postman who is supposed to come to my house had been sick for the past few days cos I haven’t receive any mails in the letetrbox for 3 days already but today I received a few letters but non is from any of the university. Super demoralised. Going to MIA for days.

Blocked
I wanted to vent my frustration here but when the page finished loading, my mind went blank. This is bad.
Throwing my frustration aside then. A newly made friend asked me if I came from an English-speaking family. Erm… she is the first to ask and I am not. She reasoned that I speak Chinese in a very weird manner whereby I speak very slowly and pronounce every word very carefully. Erm… did I? Lol.
I lost my way on an incredibly and sickly Monday when I headed towards Orchard after work. Sometimes bus concession isn’t very beneficial. It should be known as a Good Monday while Good Friday is definitely better than Monday. ARGH! I lost my way on bus 124 and I seriously felt like vomiting because the ride is so long and uncomfortable. Decided to alight even before I arrived at my destination. Instead I decided to head home. Too much bus rides can kill a person’s appetite.
My 3rd Korean lesson was today. There is a change in timing and the teacher. Somehow I still prefer the previous teacher because she teach at a much slower pace and at a pace where we the students can absorb the new knowledge. The new teacher is ver fast when she teaches but she taught us a lot of new things. As for how much did we absorb, I am not sure. Lol. But I definitely learned a lot of new things today.

Last minute outing
Was chatting with Jia Ying in the afternoon and suddenly I got so hyper that I suggested a last minute outing to PS. Went to PS and walked around. Bought nothing but had a super expensive but incredibly delicious dinner. Initially we wanted to eat sushi and we searched the whole mall for sushi. Couldn’t find till we enter the lift and saw the 2 magic words: “Japanese Restaurant”.
We later went to the 6th storey and we are at the sushi restaurant but the food doesn’t look very appetizing so out of the corner of my eye I saw another restaurant next to the sushi restaurant. That is: “The Manhattan Fish Market”.
We took a glance at the menu standing outside the restaurant and suddenly we decided to dropped the idea of eating sushi. Haha. That is because the fragrance from Manhattan is so strong and smell so yummy-licious. Lol. Went in and ordered Manhattan Seafood Platte. It is incredibly delicious. Only remembered that I wanted to take a photo of how the platte looks like when we are finished. -.- Haha. So I am sorry you can’t see what we ate. =P
I highly recommend the prawns though I actually had a very embarrassing encounter with the prawns. *Shy* Lol. But it is definitely something you shouldn’t miss. The sauce on the prawns are so good that I wanted to lick my fingers. Haha. Exaggerating how yummy it tastes. =P Okay, in short I recommend the prawns. =D
On the ride home, I was chatting with Jia Ying and suddenly I got so emotion that I started telling her something that I just found out from my grandfather. My grandfather used to be a very successful businessman in construction line and he was also awarded the contract to construct Sentosa in the late 60s or 70s. That is during the peak of construction and when my grandfather is very successful. Then suddenly everything became zero. My grandfather’s business failed but that is not due to his negligence but because of this cunning guy (now is an old man) who sabotaged my grandfather’s business. By the time the accountant realized and informed my grandfather, everything is too late. My grandfather became a bankrupt while that guy lived in luxury. I seriously hate that old man. Why did he sabotaged my grandfather’s business? But according to my grandfather, he later on also lost his wealth but not to the extent of bankrupt. I called that retribution.
After hearing that from my grandfather I actually started thinking, if my grandfather’s business did not failed, I should be a haughty princess now. Maybe I will not meet all the friends I had now and maybe I would be someone with many rich friends and all. If my family is rich, a lot of things will not happen to my family. Everyone will still be together. I blamed that old man. I blamed him so much but I also thanks him. If not for him, I will not have gone through many tough periods with my family and keeping us together and stronger. If not for him, I would never met all the friends I had now. But I still blamed him for causing my grandfather emotional hurt and also he is indirectly a murderer.
Okay enough of all these stuffs. In the end I accepted what happened and all. =)
Noby left my house yesterday. She went to her ‘daddy’ and ‘mummy’. I will missed her very much.

A result of taking Korean classes. By the way, I signed up for Korean classes at Cambridge Language School and already started my first lesson on last Saturday. Not too bad. Manageable and the teacher is really funny. Will update again when I had my second lesson. =)
