I finally went to the library after so long. I spent a good 1 hour walking up and down the whole library trying to find the fiction corner for adult and teenager but I just couldn’t find it. Finally, I spotted the HUGO Room and stepped in to find myself surrounded by fiction books. See, now you know just how long have I not stepped into the library. I don’t even have the slightest idea when has the HUGO Room been implemented.

I finally ended almost all my tuition for this week. After a good battle for the whole week, I am proud to say that I am going to be free for this Sunday. Hohoho.

Something unhappy:
I finally get pissed off by a particular someone. PLEASE don’t rely on others for information. You are no longer in primary school. I am busy enough with my stuffs and I don’t need you to come and add more trouble. I don’t spoon feed people with information, not even my students. I always believe in making effort. If you don’t wish to make even the slightest effort, don’t go rely on people. Just rot there by yourself. You really wasted all my effort trying to help you. I totally regretted it and I am not going to give you any more information!

Happy girl
I am now a happy girl. Hehe. That is because my bank account finally gone back to the amount that I wanted after 2 years within 2 months. Hohoho. So happy. =P Hopefully I can maintain it and let it continue to grow. Hehe.
However, I will have to put all my plans about going on a holiday during December to a stop for the time being. =’( I want to go to Taiwan so badly if not I can compromise for Thailand. =P If only someone can sponsor my trip. Hehe.
Met up with Yun, Yan Ting, JY, TWT, Phy and Wei Ying on Tuesday at 85 market and I met Pei Shan and Pui Wah on the bus home yesterday. Hehe. Within a couple of days, I met so many of my secondary school friends. =D
Something that I hate about nowadays is the heat and the rain. The weather is so unpredictable lately and I really hate walking a 15-20 minutes walk to and from my students’ houses. Now I have became one of the ‘aunties’. Haha. I ensure that I bring my umbrella out everyday and use it as I walk. Lol. Call me ‘Aunty’ Queen of Dramas. Haha.
I haven’t been able to watch any dramas lately and I really don’t feel good about it. My last drama is Why Why Love and luckily I am watching The X-Family constantly but I really hate to catch the episode-by-episode. Just can’t wait for the drama to come to an end. =P

Anyway, my darling hamsters are still ever cute and adorable. =P

Marry Me Review
Review: Marry Me by Mike He and Liu Zhe Yin.
This drama is rated boring by most audience. It is very expectable because it is not as happening as most of the other dramas. If you can appreciate the different angles of how the film is projected and the little small actions that indicate slight attraction between one another, you will like this show like I do.
Firstly, this show is, like I mentioned, not as happening. The story is slow moving and romance only really happened towards the end of the show. Instead of romance, the drama is replaced with jokes, comical actions, friendship, trust and facing reality. You can expect little jokes and comical actions from every character in the show especially the main leads themselves.
What do I mean by facing reality? Basically, this place where all of them gathered is a place for anyone who wishes to run away from anything. As long as you finally learned to face the reality of life, you can graduate from the place. In which, only 3 persons graduated and left the “runaway hostel”. One left unexpectedly, another died and the last decided to take the last wish of his son (the one who died) back to his lover (the son’s mother). Although the rest did managed to learn how to face reality, they did not choose to leave but stay put.
Mike played a famous actor who was abandoned on his wedding day by his bride (played by Mike, himself) and Liu Zhe Yin played a girl who wanted to run away from her boyfriend who proposed to her. In which, they slowly fell in love but did not have a happy ending in the end.
Mike suffered a rare disease which the doctors are clueless of any cures to it. During the period when he was undergoing treatment for this disease, he was exposed by the media that he had a terminal illness. He was cornered outside the hospital and ran away with the help of Zhe Yin who accidentally knocked against a lamp post when she was running after Mike.
Not long after, she died from internal bleeding and she was wearing her wedding gown when she died silently. Mike was devastated. He also passed away not long after.
You will notice that the ending is very similar to the ending of Love Contract. It did tell you that the characters in the show did die but at the same time, they try to change the ending such that you are wondering whether everything really did happen. This ending is not exactly very impressive but at the same time you feel better as it is not exactly a bad ending. It seems to me that there is a double ending. Not too bad. =)

换换爱 aka Why Why Love Review
Starred by the original cast of Devil Besides You.
Rainie played Tong Jia Ti, a poor yet very determined to get out of poverty girl.
Mike played Huo Da, a rich and spoilt brat.
Kingone played Huo Yan, a rich and perfect charming prince.
Story begins with Jia Ti helping Huo Da complete a dangerous last-minute stunt for charity. Next thing you know, both Huo Da and Huo Yan came to the stall which Jia Ti and her best friend, Xiao Nan, are tending. They are selling coupons to exchange for services.
Huo Da managed to draw out an ‘Angel and master’ exchange coupon while his elder half-brother, Huo Yan, got the ‘Love’ exchange coupon.
Then story reveals that Jia Ti is a girl who lived in poverty and never dares to dream. On her 20th birthday, Xiao Nan helped her to make a wish that Jia Ti has to get the contact number of the 10th guy that walked past them.
It turned out that they didn’t know who is the 10th guy as Huo Da and Huo Yan raced past them and either one of them must be the 10th guy. Jia Ti assumed that Huo Yan is the 10th guy and took his contact number from him. They started to have feelings for one another.
Things, however, begin to take a change when Huo Da decided to utilise his ‘Angel and master’ exchange coupon which turned out to have a little small romance brewing between the two. However, there is still Huo Yan and Huo Da’s crush, Yan Shu, in the picture.
Yan Shu, a elegant and graceful lady only has eyes for Huo Yan but at the same time refused to distant herself from Huo Da knowing very well that Huo Da has a crush on her since they were kids. When she did not get the attention and care she wants from Huo Yan, she will fall back on Huo Da. Finally accepting this fact, Huo Da decided to bid goodbye to this long crush and start afresh.
Towards the end of the show, Huo Da will come to realise that he only has a couple of months more to live and he will leave Jia Ti to suffer in silence with Yan Shu’s help. Will Jia Ti realise that Huo Da is dying and still stick to him through his last moments of his life? Will the grudge between Huo Da and Huo Yan finally be resolved? Will Huo Da finally get his father’s understanding? Will Huo Yan end up with Yan Shu or Jia Ti? Will Huo Yan give up everything to save the his only brother?
This show basically shows Huo Da being changed by Jia Ti and finally becomes a person whom everyone adores. The story on Huo Yan basically revolves around a disrupted love life and a troubling childhood memory of being sold to the Huo family. As for Jia Ti, it simply shows us that kindness and determination and do wonders.
I highly recommend this show. The twist and turns are common yet still touching.

小白船
Was watching ‘Sorry, Teacher’ a few days ago. I wouldn’t say that it is a very good show, not much of the climate but a very good story line with a heart-wrenching ending.
There is not really a theme song in the show except for maybe just one, 小白船.
蓝蓝的天空银河里
有只小白船
船上有颗桂花树
白兔在游玩
桨儿桨儿看不见
船上也没帆
飘呀飘呀飘向西天
渡过那条银河水
走向云彩国
走过那个云彩国
再向哪儿去?
在那遥远的地方
闪着金光
晨星是灯塔
照呀照得亮
This is a very well-known song among children and even adults. I didn’t really care about what this song is about until now. It is a song of hope and do you know where did this song originate from? It is from Korean and I think it is a good song. =)

Updates
I want to introduce a website to rent DVDs. There is a trial period of 14 days whereby anything that you rent is free. After which, you will just have to pay a sum every month for unlimited DVDs rental. Hehe. Not a bad website.
Most importantly, you don’t have to go to a store to rent the DVDs. Just go online and click away and you will receive the DVDs in about 2 days time. Pretty efficient. Plus there is no limit of how long you can keep the disc with you and no late penalties. To return the DVDs, just drop it at the post box. Nothing else. I am currently using it and just received 3 DVDs in my mailbox this afternoon.
I heard that the ice cream at Sweet Talk is launched recently so if you are interested in trying out, remember to hit the stores. =) Strongly recommend the chocolate flavour. Hehe.
Why Why Love VCDs Part 2 will be out tomorrow. Received a sms from TS with the news today. So happy. Haha. Can’t wait to collect it tomorrow. Lalala.
Will be doing a proper update this coming Sunday. Tata.

T.T
*Sob* I missed Mike. Not that I saw him and starting to miss him but I actually did not get to see him during his little stay in Singapore. ARGH!!!
I thought he would be leaving at 1+pm on Monday but did not realize that the time in his official website was the time that he touched down in Taiwan. I happily woke up at a freaking 10+am and went online to check the gate that he would be leaving by and realized that he left early in the morning. SHUCKS.
So yes, I did not get to see him and not to mention that I did not get to listen to his interview LIVE. I had to record it down and listened at night just because my whole day was so fully packed. So disappointed. T.T Jia Ying had promised me that she would accompany me to his event the next time he dropped by Singapore, provided that she is available. -.-
Hopefully he will drop by to promote Why Why Love. Hehe. =P

Regarding the sprees, I am still waiting for the parcels to arrive at my house. Although the Bigi parcel is already in Singapore, it is still ‘happily’ sitting in the warehouse of Speedpost. I will be giving them a ‘little’ reminder tomorrow if it still don’t arrive at my house before I leave my house to teach tuition tomorrow. Haha. =P
As for the JJS parcel, I have no idea why is it taking so long, this time round, to reach Singapore. Will be checking again tomorrow if it is in Singapore yet.
Pals, you can start arranging to pick up your items. Preferably from next week as I need to sort out everything first.

Sprained my nerve?
I am not sure what did I sprain but it is definitely not my ankle. I sprained my calf but not sure if it is the nerve or what. Lol.
Second time of the year that I went to the physician. That is really bad. Haha.
I got an elephant feet now because it is all wrapped up so that the internal swelling will go away. All my students’ parents asked me what happened. So embarrassing. Haha. I can’t possibly tell them I sprained my leg while I was trying to board a bus and was wearing high heels that day.
Lol. That is how ku-ku I am. Haha.
On the day that I sprained my leg, I was heading to Bedok to run some errands and in the end I was struck at this stretch of video stores. I finally bought something that I had been wanting to buy but no courage to buy. (DON’T THINK DIRTY) Lol. I finally bought Marry Me by Mike He.
As the review of the show hasn’t been very good, I haven’t got the courage to buy the drama even though I like Mike He a lot. So what attracted me? THE PRICE!!! Lol. For a brand new and original DVD, it is selling at only $15. I haven’t bought any dramas at such a low price before. Come to think of it, I think I did but that is many years back. Haha.
So without thinking twice, I bought the drama and went home happily. =D So far, I am only at Disc 2 out of the 6 discs. Not too bad actually. I think it is rather entertaining but at times you wanted to slam the TV because it is so lame. Wahaha. My brother was telling me to switch off the TV because it was super lame. Lol.
I love lame shows. Haha. It makes you happy. Lol. After I am done with it, I will be doing a few more reviews as I am just done with Mukodono 2001 and Wonderful Life. (Jennifer, I finished watching! Lol. Within 2 days. =P) I have so many other shows that I wanted to watch. Queen of Dramas can never be satisfied.
I am still waiting for Why Why Love Part 2 to be out. I wonder whether there will be behind the scenes in Part 2 as Part 1 doesn’t have it. Sob. I want behind the scenes. Lol. I love to watch artistes being themselves. Like Kingone was really funny in the recent episodes of behind the scenes. Or should I say from the start? Haha. Hopefully there will be. =)

Spring cleaning
Mummy gave me a standing about 100cm by 40cm storage with 4 drawers for me to keep my VCDs, DVDs and all my CDs cause she is sick of watching all my dramas and CDs collecting dust on my bookshelves. Lol.
So I spent a good 3 hours cleaning my dramas and CDs before placing them neatly in the drawers.
Guess what?
IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO HOLD ALL MY CDs AND DRAMAS!
My goodness. Judging from the outstanding 10+ boxes of dramas that I cannot squeeze into the drawers, I am expecting a wardrobe soon for my dramas. Lol. I am still constantly adding to my collection of CDs and dramas and at this rate, I can open a rental store pretty soon. Lol.
On top of that, I finally managed to clear a space for my electronic devices (excluding my laptop). Due to the fact that I am using a laptop, I do not have the luxury of storage space and good DVD writer. So I bought a hard disk for myself a couple of months ago and my dad bought me an external DVD re-writable last year but I never managed to find a space to keep them. Finally, I cleared a space for them. Hehe.

Why Why Love aka 换换爱
The VCD for Why Why Love aka 换换爱 is out in TS stores. Hehe. But there is only Part 1.
After an exhausting day of teaching tuition today, I decided to head to TS to look for some old dramas that caught my attention recently. Then I saw the little preview TV outside TS showing the drama but I didn’t see the drama in the stores. I approached the sales assistant and tata… I bought the VCD with the $10 voucher (still remember?). Hehe. I can’t wait for Part 2 to be out. =P
But sadly, because I saw that drama, I did not buy the old dramas that I want. Sobz.
I wanted to get Magic Ring starred by Joe Cheng, Marry Me starred by Mike He, Smile Pasta by Cyndi and Nicholas Teo, Silence by Vic and so many more. Haiz. They just have to wait. Zzz…
