Welcome Mich and Chiew to the big iPhone family!!! Despite its short battery life, you'll love it like you love every other Apple product. Never in my dreams have I been the owner of such a cool phone. Thanks Mummy, Jacinta and Marcus.

Interview in 2 days' time. Getting very nervous. He told me not to get my hopes high and that it doesn't matter if I don't get in cos he'll take care of me. :)

Chocolate and cheesecake buffet at Hilton with the bioengineers, followed by dinner with the girls. Tomorrow's gonna be a busy and happy day.

I HAVE TO WATCH HE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU TOMORROW!!! Post Physio CA reward!! (I reward myself in some way or another even after the smallest tests.)

Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, Scarlett Johansson...so many eye candies...what more can I ask. I need my healthy dose of chick flicks once in a while. Laughed my way through Bride Wars and I'm sure tomorrow's movie won't disappoint.

That said, I enjoyed Valkyrie very much with Tian on Vday. It brought back many memories of my trip to Germany and I can't wait to go back there with Tian for yet another history lesson. It's a beautiful, clean and orderly city like Singapore, but I think what was most attractive of Berlin was its rich history. Recognised the former Reich Air Ministry Building in the movie! though I have forgotten what it was/is used for. It might have been more realistic and impactful if the movie was in German. I should check out more Nazi Germany WWII movies.

oK study time.

The night we danced for the environment

NUS Dance Blast! 1st ExxonMobil Campus Concerts (EMCC) '09










This is the reason why I'm never available on MondayWednesdayFriday nights and Sunday afternoons for the whole of January. It was about one month of intensive practices for a one-night-only concert. I'm glad I did this concert and didn't pull out of any item because no matter how tiring it was juggling dance with 3 modules, FYP, tuition and squash, I learnt a lot from the choreographers and fellow dancers, challenged myself physically and mentally, and got to know many Blast! people better too. I hope I'll never stop dancing.

The video below was perhaps the other biggest highlight of the night for all of us, other than our intense dance performances. Intense because every item was seriously super tiring though it might not look like it.

EVERYONE MUST WATCH THE VIDEO!

A Valentine's day surprise from Weilong, who is in LA for SEP, to his girlfriend, Sharon, both of whom are fellow dancers from Blast! It's seriously damn freaking romantic and sweet, I teared the first time I watched it, when we were all gathered on stage after our pre-concert group warm-up and they played the video on the huge screen. Damn off since the video isn't for me, but I wasn't the only one - many other girls and even guys teared too, and of course Sharon teared until her fake eyelashes fell out. Seriously the sweetest and most sincere thing I've even seen a guy do for a girl. The Blast! guys complained that Weilong "spoil market!!" haha!

New name, new beginning

I realised I can't stand having my blog locked up. So...

I decided it shall be a new beginning!!! (New beginning to what I don't know...my life isn't changing very much as of now...=p)

So, no more vacuumcleaner!!! It's only Jamie left now who remains true to her URL from secondary school...go purplebliss! haha

uNFIT to the MAX

Nearly died tonight. Dance prac from 4-11.30pm is no joke. Just when I thought it was 10+, the clock was only at 9pm. I was so so tired. It's either Claudine and Esther's dance is the most physically-challenging dance that I've done, or I'm just getting old. I think I'm getting old. I definitely used to be fitter I think. And less heavy. So it was easier to move my body then. I don't know what else to say, other than I'm really so damn tired. The worse thing is I still don't look good at all. Don't know what I've been doing the past 4 years. I'm honestly still very lousy in dance and I'm truly embarrassed but only I have myself to blame.

Ok. Gossip Girl time. 2 episodes waiting for me.

And reminder to self: Start mugging for the 2 common tests THIS WEEKEND!!!

Alone

Tonight is not a happy night. I don't know. Maybe I'm just pmsing. Maybe it's the effect of being in the lab from 10-6. Whatever it is, I'm taking everything so negatively tonight. And I'm thinking about so many things. I found out that I'm not an intellectual person. I don't speak proper English, I don't know about world affairs, basically I don't give intellectual replies. It's just a nicer way of saying I'm stupid. So the boyfriend told me I should just not reply. Maybe I won't appear too antisocial and unfriendly if I just keep quiet and smile. This is why I get teased at all the time. I'm brainless. Knew I was never meant to go to the raffles schools. My friends never stop reminding me of that. And it doesn't help that I'm stuck with a brainless title which I detest to the core, also because it should have belonged to someone else, so not only do I have to take something that does not belong to me, I have to live with the additional stereotypic stupidity that comes along with it. As if I don't already know I'm not intellectual. And there was another awakening tonight. Think that was worse. Just when I thought I'm always there, even more than others, and I have shifted my priorities - even the boyfriend knows that - but today I found out that people did not realise at all. It's just sad. Just when I thought I have friends, perhaps I don't. Perhaps I'm just there to make the numbers. I really wish there could be some honestly among friends and just tell me when you're unhappy with me. I'm not the kind who can live with superficial friendships. Totally opposite from the boyfriend. He doesn't care about what his friends think of him, and tells me (since secondary school) that I should do that too but obviously I can't live like that. Think I'm trying too hard to make everyone around me happy, and I'm getting tired. Unhappy with him too, for making me wait for more than an hour while he finishes his game. Honestly, it is that important? I'm so tired of giving in to this, giving in to that, I don't even have my own holiday now. Can you imagine, it's your holiday and you still have to give in? What I really wanna do now is to go back to Europe with my sister before she starts her SEP. I still have not made peace with the girl friend and he does not even care about that. It's honestly nothing to him, when it's such a big thing to me and it's one of my closest friends. I don't know how can anyone be so insensitive.

I really hate today.
