Take a break for a longer journey ahead.

Dear peeps,

Finally... its mid-exams!
3 papers down, and 3 more to go...
Took a long, deep sleep last night. Feels sooooooo shiok ah!

I always believe in taking breaks, for an even longer journey.
"Have a break, have a Kit Kat!" 
see, even Kit Kat endorses this idea :P

People always say that its just an excuse for me to slacken off.
But seriously, who can function without rest?!?
K la, I've got a few friends who function like robots.
They can concentrate on things for like 16 hours straight in a row.... T.T
They might really be robots, who knows? XD

Gonna start preparing my armor for the next half of the battle!
Its gonna be a hellafa week. Next three papers are the real killers.
LEZGO EVERYBADEH!!

Exam Period

First paper today.................

Before the online exam, there was system error before the time racing test... Grrrrrrr....

Finally finished the test after 25 minutes of stressful questions, another system error occured upon submission....... & my reaction?

I was so pissed to know that such system errors can occur during NUS major exams.
Especially when it is a computer thingy module, grr..
I gave quite a chao-bin, aka black face after that (to the point that even the invigilator recognises me)
Boyf's face super super chao after that too :(

After minutes and minutes of waiting, and the coordinators contacted the computing side and guess what?
They offered us a chance to retake the paper!

RETAKE!!! 

+ a one hour break before that!!

AWW YEAHH~ 

my group took the chance to discuss the answers before going back, fully armed :)

25 minutes test, with 11 minutes for checking of answers.

felt so much more confident for this second chance of reborn!

high hopes of getting that A for this module, whooots! :D

on a side note, le boyf and me received a welfare pack from one of our school clubs.

We were sitting by the lounge eating nutella sandwich from the vending machines and the club members came in to gave everyone in the lounge a welfare pack. Deodorant, shampoo and soap!

Our school damn rich hor? give people free soap, some more the soaps were distributed according to the gender packs. Tsktsk.

I believe they've got a hidden agenda, which is to tell those school campers to go bathe!

FYI, our school is damn kua zhang one. 

We've got people (I'm suspecting our dearest foreign talents,) bringing luggages to study rooms in school, with plans to camp overnight over a few days! 

every time their area damn smelly one.. YIKESS ://

People, study hard, but please remember to bathe okay!!! >.<

time to go... one paper down, 5 more to go.... :) hang on everybody!

Exams are nearing

Hello people!

I am dying from studying... (right after recovery from food poisoning)

Writing down a list of things not done, & I was like...

Goodluck to those who are in the same boat as me!
(especially to my engineering fellows out there)

Lets fight this finals together and get it over and done with!
Kampateh jiayou! :D

Food Poisoning from Two Chefs @ CommonWealth

Dear people who chances upon this blog,
BOYCOTT TWO CHEFS EATING PLACE!

The exact address:
Two Chefs Eating Place 双厨菜馆 (Main Branch)
Blk 116 Commonwealth Crescent
#01-129, Singapore 140116

Previous Sunday night, my whole family went down to this place to have a nice zi char gathering after my mom came back from her Taiwan trip. skipped awesome quack quack meal with le boyf for this.

One day later all of us had food poisoning... :( 

Mom, 2 sisters and (of course) 2 brother-in-laws, and me all laosai like crazy. Some of them vomited, and had fever!

For me it was shitting liquids (alot alot of liquids) & feeling back and neck ache and tired the whole day... 

GOD, Y U DO DIS TO ME during exam period :(

List of stuffs ordered for 6 of us: (sorry no pictures were taken)

1. Herbal Chicken Soup
2. Cereal Chicken (Mai Pian Ji, the chicken was toooo hard. BAD..)
3. Drunken Cockles [definitely not the cause of food poisoning cos mom and erjie did not eat this]
4. Butter Pork Ribs (their famous milk powder thingy, that was supposed to melt in your mouth. Dissapointing)
5. Tapioca Leaves
6. Salted Egg Prawn Balls (this was the only nice dish)
7. Beancurd with golden Mushrooms

I don't know which dish caused the food poisoning... but it was definitely because of the meal at Two Chefs as that was the only common meal we've had for the past three weeks.

sigh figh... enough self-pity. Better get back to studying! Adios~

If I had a million dollars

Hello!

Today's blog topic is actually quite interesting. It is inspired by a hokkien song... "Na si wa wu ji ba ban"!

keke! for those who don't know hokkien, it means "If I had a million dollars". 

This song never fails to lift my spirits up with its upbeat tune :P

I like how the original song actually ends with a phrase "peng you ah, le eh ji ban ban jin dueh hor?" (which is not played in this video...) When translated, it means "hey friend, your one million dollar seems like its never-ending". So cute right? 

So what would I do if I had lots of money? Maybe, three million? ($3 million is alot for a poor student like me!)

 

I don't know why but this image popped out from my head xD

but at least I have a dream okay!

So, being in a pragmatic society, I would spend the first $1 million to buy a house in Singapore. 

A HDB near green-line MRT, for rental purposes. (since I am still just a student and can live with my mom)

Then, half a million to upgrade my mom's house or retirement fees. Another half a million for family (includes le boyf) to bring them travel around the world every year and eat good food! & save up another half million dollar in my bank. So, I'll be left with $0.5 million to do other stuffs.

#1. Pay off all the university tuition fees, and sponsor my own luxury SEP (Student Exchange Programme) trip! I have applied for SEP to Canada, with plans to cross borders to USA to tour around! Omitofuo~ Please pray that I get it! :(

#2. Set a self-grooming budget, spending of $1000 a month on skincare, clothes.... and maybe gym??? HAHAHA. 

#3. Get a female dog to accompany Nikki! (just look at his sexy pose in his Burberry sweater) Heh, cool yo! :P

#4. Buy lots of insurance, and then go overseas to for bungee jumping, parachuting, and maybe mountain trekking :D :D

#5. Set up a shop for pets cafe. My brother as main chef, sisters as pet groomers or promoters, mommy enjoy life. Then, I'll be the money collector... or bartender! Hey don't look down on me, I've worked as a bartender before! xP & for this cafe, Nikki will be roaming around freely, and other pet owners can bring their pets here. We will have a human and pet menu. :)

#6. Whatever leftover money I'll then give them to charity. :)

Yupp, that's about it. 

Things to do IF I had the money :)

On rather simple things aye? A poor Singaporean student don't have big dreams yo~

What would you do if you had endless stream of money?

Healthy Living Log #1

Dear Blog,

So happy that I finally received my bracelet from the mailbox.
Woohoo! It's so priddy I can die!!  *mimicks Agnes from Despicable Me*

&Today marks the day of healthy-eating day #1!

FYI, I am someone who absolutely hates sweating and always feeling hungry. Hence, the fat body which accumulates from all 'em fattie food and lazy lifestyle, as well as the lack of motivation to exercise. Currently weighing at 5*kg, rise of 8kg since a year ago. BOOOOO :(


I am not really someone who can focus at two things at a time, and now's the exam period so no no to wasting time exercising. So, I have decided to start eating healthier to compensate the lack of exercise during semester period, keke! ^^

Have been reading up on nutritional food in the morning, and have decided to include more of bananas and blueberry cereal into my diet as my first step to healthy living.

1. Banana
   
   People who know me will know that I'm no fan of bananas. I actually kinda dislike bananas. Haha, but I have started to accept the taste of bananas recently. I still don't really like it, but ya, I have come to terms with its "acquired" taste.
   
   Bananas are actually super beneficial to our bodies! It is rich in fibre, so it helps you to shit better and feel fuller for a longer time. It is also relatively low in calories (only slightly higher than your apples). For health sake, can help control blood pressure, bone loss, kidney stones, calcium loss, heart diseases, etc....!! Bananas not only improve your physical health, they also improve your mental health, as it has tryptophan which is converted to serotonin to improve mood and achieve a soothing effect! GOOD AYE??
   
   Also, girls... Try to eat the riper bananas. Though riper bananas are easier to digest compared to the normal ones, making you feel hungry faster, they are in fact sweeter and higher in antioxidants! Then can make your skin soft and smooth ^^
   
   GET YOUR BANANAS NOW. >:D
   
2. Blueberry Cereal
   
   Firstly, choosing cereal itself is a separate skill on its own. More often than not, we'll see "high fibre", "no sugar added", "low fat" on cereal packagings. Don't be tricked by these claims by the manufacturers. No fat does not really mean no fat. And why blueberry specifically? Cos' it is rich in antioxidants, which clears toxins in your body and has anti-aging effects and makes your skin nice and preeeedy! :D I would personally recommend the Post Selects Blueberry Morning cereal with low-fat milk.
   
   
   
   It's healthy with low-calories and not tasteless. Its actually quite sweet for me, and it has real blueberries and crunchy granola clusters! Om nomz :P
   
   But.. this is not exactly the cheapest cereal around. Nonetheless, this is worth it right? For your health and skin and soul :D Kampeteh towards healthy eating!

That's all to my small first step to healthy living. To all my non-existent readers out there, start eating healthier now!

kudos to losing weight through healthier eating! :D

It's not too late as long as you make a change now.
