CPST =P

played this game during youth last night.it's like this:
1. Form a circle of people

2. One would just say any word like, eg. apple.

3. Then the next person in the circle would have to say another word which would link to "apple" BUT the word cannot start with the letter C, P, S or T.

4. once someone says a word beginning with C, P, S or T,he person is out of the game...

hahahha....you'd be surprised at the level of difficulty this game is no matter how simple it sounds...=)..

imagine if the first word was 'sweet'-mostly the first words that come to mind would be "sugar", "cakes", "chocolate", "pie" or "pavlova"...

or maybe if the first word was "orange"- words like "strawberries", "citrus", "pear", "sour", "sweet", "tangy" or something beginning with C,P,S or T would mostly be the initial words that pop into mind..it's been proven by scientists and all...

hehehe....

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Oh my goodness!!!!the book is SOOO GOOD!!!....regardless of what others think bout the ending..i think the ending was,in a way, unexpected and meaningful..i thought it was really emotional too...hahahha...don't judge me but i was seriously tearing a few times thru the book..=p

DON"T WORRY!!!I"M NOT GONNA SPOIL THE ENDING FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN"T READ IT!!!!

=)...i'm not story spoiler....hehhe....all i want to say is GO READ IT NOW!!!i finished it in one day..less i think...i started reading it from 5 pm onwards to about....2or 3 in the morning...i just HAD to finish it...hehehhe..

i'm just baffled at SOME ppl's complete disregard and indifference to Harry Potter books...*ahem ahem...sjane...=p....jk jk....

but what can i say....have to respect ppl's opinion on things right??=)

Back from my beloved KCH to hellish and boring SCHOOL

you know that feeling when u've just reached the end of your holidays and u go to school wishing it wud never end?....

well this time that horrible feeling and tempting desire has multiplied itself 10000 times after coming back to melbourne..

i definitely appreciate my mum and my bros being here with me but still,my WHOLE family's not together...sometimes i feel guilty seperating my dad from us...

sigh...

but anyway,atleast my family and i got to spend some time back in kuching together...it was great meeting up with frens and conducting our usual reminiscing bout the good old days..
getting to go out for lunch or dinner and having laughs was unbelievable comforting but so unsatisfying as when u leave kuching, your heart craves for more...

my heart goes out to everyone who has spent their first year overseas feeling alone and sad...just pray and study hard to accomplish what u can to make yourself proud then we can go back home and not look back with regret and sorrow....because you've done ur best and u should be proud of ur achievements...

IN KUCHING...
had great laughs with kitty and sjane at Urban & Co. where we were trying on dresses while we were oblivious of our laughter which was at max volume!poor jeremiah at to wait for ur girls to do our thing while we waited for mike to finish getting his haircut....hehehhe...

Sjane's always cracking me up with her clumsy ways....hehehe....she's a freaking professional dancer BUT she can trip and fall atleast 3 or 4 times in a duration of 15mins!!!hehehe...u r so cute sjane....

mike, our lifesaver, is as usual bringing us around,organizing outings and keeping us occupied with lunches and movies...Thanks mike!!sorry bout the parking tix!!!hehehe....i guess i was partially responsible for it...luckily u found another...=p...

Leh ding is just UNBELIEVABLE!!!he's gonna study for his year end exams although he's bed ridden AND on the ventilater.....i salute his perseverence....

i won't forget the bowling session with khang wee,sjane and mel!!it was so fun....poor sjane got of at a slow start with gutter balls trailing her but she got the hang of it soon and she managed to knock plenty of pins down!!go sjane!!khang had the bowling style where ur leg bends at the end of the throw which we girls envied....mel with her usual funny and fun nature recorded a few of our bowling rounds and we laughed incessently!!!

the day before when sjane, khang and i went to buy siaw hui's present,i became a spectator of the 'battle of different styles' between sjane and khang...hahahhaha...they seriously can't agree on any item in stores!!hehehe...for eg,when they were choosing which Guess bag they liked best,khang picked the one that Sjane hated the most and vice versa!!!hahahhaha....it continued uptill our decision to buy siaw hui's present...hehehhe....u guys crack me up....

when we were at alison's house i made a stupid comment...firstly,mike who came late tricked sjane that he had to pay RM10 to bribe the traffic police not to saman him as he was talking on the hp while driving...he made her think that he was talking to sjane at that time and pretty much made sjane feel horrible...i didn't noe for sure that it was a trick so i said,

"are u sure you got fined??for sure the traffic police issued u a receipt for ur offence?"

At that,everyone paused,looked at me and burst into peals of laughter!!!hahahhaha....y the heck did i say that???hehehhe...as everyone laughed all i could do was hide my face....*blush....

Btw, 'Transformers' and 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' are great movies to watch int the cinema!!!the graphics in 'Transformers' are fantastic!!!!! u must watch it in the cinema!!!!!!!!!!!!

hhahahaha......here's a joke i heard from some crazy funny frens at school...

Emotion

All i can dream off...look forward to...
However? Only....
confusion and complications... diverting the topic from the real issue and procrastinating important conversations... busy... mixed feelings on replying... speechless.. frustration...

Aftermath...

Oh wow...it's been a month and a day since i've last posted and entry in my blog...not too late to start again i guess...

Firstly....RELIEF AT LAST!exams are over...*phew...don't want to rub it in though cause all the Trinity and Taylor students are just commencing their exams...

Oh my gosh!!!it was such a treat to finally be in the company of all the present Melburnian ex-2006 Form 5ives..except Louis...who was apparently attending his formal ...*ahem ahem*...with a date apparently...The lively occasion was that of MTYP's ...belated...BIRTHDAY!!!although already a week has gone by...Sjane had been planning the day since weeks prior...we went shopping in the afternoon at Bridgeroad and had a lovely heart to heart dinner at an Italian restaurant...(although glitches occured such as ppl having to study in the afternoon therefore limiting the ppl getting to shop in the afternoon as well as booking the wrong italian restaurant (not on Lygon street as assumed) and then having to pay quite a bit of money for the meal WHICH arrived late might i say...)It was a SPECTACULAR evening....the classic deluxe black forest cake from Brunneti's was the bomb.By the time we all got home we still felt stuffed and overfed...

plenty of pictures were taken which i DON"T have...(silly me for not bringing the camera...)but i think it can be found on Sjane's or Roger's or Van's or Siaw Hui's blog...either one would definitely post up those lovely pictures we took...our group photo at the restaurant and at the lobby of the apartment Tian is staying at...

I guess this is not a detailed blog but the night was beautiful...can still run the details in my head but no words can describe how i truely felt...

The shopping at bridgeroad...hahaha....Triya,Mtyp,Sjane and I all tried on a dress....Sjane looked so good but the dress was a teany bit too big and too long...Triya had to leave the rockmelons which she was planning to take back to Singapore at Sjane's apartment...funny thing is when triya and i requested to see her apartment she immediately screamed out,"NO!YOU are NOT going into the apartment!"...both of us were in utter shock as we both didn't expect a 'No'...she then cared to explain of the 'messiness' of her residence and also cared to mention that her brother was actually cleaning up the place as her bro said(as quoted by sjane),"Have to clean up the place!!Mommy's coming tomorrow!!"Sjane even mentioned him having to clean up plates which haven;t been washed for 2 weeks!hehehhehe...funny...

hehhe....Kim is so cute...heard she plays a really good impression of a psychotic woman...wish i could see!!!but she's too shy...dang...then there's siaw hui and van...hahah...those two have some issues sumtimes...hehhe...siaw hui broke van;s heart!!!*tsk tsk...how could you siaw hui?...and then i supported van when she told me helplessly and with a 'genuine' sadness that siaw hui was ignoring her...muahahahha....finally getting to bully Wuitler...dang!no akmal to emphasize on the Wuitler issue...then there's yee ying who's always so kind and smily..Emmeline!!!whose new hair do(since moving to Aus)i love on her...but she told me of the maintenance issues....heheh...hard to manage knd of hair but i think she looks good in it...poor maoling and maoli had to pay for their untouched dinner as their mum requested for them to return home immediately for some reason...Cel and Roger brought back all the memories of the past..even as early as primary three during which we had a (at that time) fun trip to Merdeka Palace where i first tasted a genuine oven baked pizza at the italian restaurant!another good thing bout the trip was thta we travelled using Farah's 2 air conditioned bus!Jeremiah....same as ever...hahah...We suddenly played 'under the rainbow'...Random thing...hehehe..it was like deja vu...being back in our younger years...hahha...i remember chinann bringing the cake down to the lobby whilst all of us left ours upstairs so that we could accompany mtyp before her bro came to pick her up..in the lift we were all in peals of laughter and smirks...=)he answered ,'the cake so nice bah...want to eat it!'hahahahahah...

ofcourse there's MTYP who was the lucky girl of the night who received flowers(from sjane),plenty of presents and ofcourse ATTENTION!!she was as sweet as ever and at Tian's place she finally had the opportunity to express hersilf through her musical talents with Tian's much sought after 88 key keyboard...Happy birthday again MTYP and i hope u had a great time//;

Ofcourse i want to thank Sjane for planning the might and for her patience and time....She knows...heheh...remember the tempting trenchcoat and boots..she resembled a working woman in those professional sounding boots and clothes...hehehe....

Conclusion is...that night was another treasured memory to add to my wonderful collection of past experiences...i hope there would be many more to come...
