*Not for the faint hearted

Attached below i am gonna post some GROSS pictures. So if u have a faint heart, as in the pharse "not for the faint hearted", Pls do not carry on.... For those people who were alive late afternoon today, or rather yesterday, 29th oct, n actually bother to msn me, I wish to say "Thanks for ur concern, i am actually feeling better now" For my three friends who helped me in the changing room, "Thanks buddy! i would have fainted there if not for u all!" For the others who help n concerned otw, "thanks" OK, so wat actually happen... (Be prepared to read a whole long long essay, as the long long winded kk is gonna write poor poor england...) Date: 29th Oct Time: 1230hrs It was a windy day, as usually we were planning to swim in the SPGG (Singapore Poly Grad Guild). Swimming was normal as i clocked ten laps as compared to the puny numbers i did the previous time. I have always been a lover to the pool, or the sea. But my job do not allow me to do so. So given the chance to swim i will be the first one to jump into the pool! After the swim, we walked to the shower as usual n towards the wellness centre. Y is it called a wellness centre. Coz there are actually saunas, jaquzi, steam room n even a icy cold pool n a boiling hot pool. My fav is the boiling hot pool. Remember the first time we tested the pools with our toes. We really wouldnt dare to jump in loh. Until i picked up the courage to *Jumped* into the cold pool. Man, its the coldest temp i ever encounter. Soon after big bear n jeremy also jumped in n we actually stayed there for approx 15mins. By then, the very weak me was already shilvering. Now i know how one shilver n chatters its teeth. :) The next day, after "ling jiao guo" the cold pool. This time i challenged the hot pool. like last time, i jumped into the pool. heat rushes into my head but after a while i actually felt more relaxed. I gestered them into the pool to. Though they were all in, jeremy actually prefer the cold pool. Whereas big bear is accomodating to all pools. Which answers to why jeremy was named a polar bear n big bear the grizzly bear n i m the panda bear. :) Well, history aside, today, as we walked into the wellness centre, the first thing i did was to jumped into the hot pool. This incidently happen to be the last thing i did there... I think as i jumped, i landed on the ventilation cap. Where there is an indentation. I must have cut myself at the edge of it. The next moment i felt, something was wrong below, i pulled myself out. I look n i found out that it looks bad. Not to started my friends, i limped to the changing room. But blood was already dripping. One of my friend saw it an assisted me to the changing room. As i sat down, lifting my leg to my knee, my leg was actually in a sea of red. Bright red. Mmm my fav colour. lol. Machiam there was a paint spill on my leg. Andy went to get toilet papers n the first aid. After drying my self, i found out that the cut was pretty bad. Like This After a while, i managed to stop the bleeding, (many thanks to the guy with the frist aid box.) But at the same time i was feeling difficulty in breathing. Jeremy was telling me to calm down n take deep breaths. I tried that but i still felt very uncomfortable. No thanks to the water trapped in my ear, I felt that the water was causing my mind to be unstable... After the water finally got out, i was still feeling very weak. All ths point of time, my leg was constantly cover with blood dripping off the leg the raised the foot. I started to have dizzyness. My vision became very yellow. This is pretty scary loh, coz i know tat something was wrong but i couldnt do anything to defend against it. N at the same time my vision was getting smaller n smaller. My hands and legs became numb, i tried to grasped them to force blood into them. It was so bad that until a stage that i couldnt feel that i almost wanted to faint. Finding that the position i was in was good, andy shifted me to lie on the curvy beach. This is the position that i slowly regain my consiousness. It was so much better but the hanging legs n arms is making them numb. Hence, i decided to rest on the floor, with my leg raised on the seat. After i recovered, I start to change up my clothes. Well, actually i was in my "bright red" trunks all the while. Thanks to my friend, Mr Ee, the blood n the trunks actually matched pretty well. lol. As we left the place, we were clearing up a bit. Coz the place actually looked like someone was murdered. lol. "Bloody" I am sorry if i have caused much disturbance to all who is reading. (Hey I already told u "Not for the faint hearted" le) :) Oh here is a pic of the very nice bandage i made....

Wat luck!?!

Well, think that my luck run out these days.

Was trying to format my PC that day. The idea was to format all my partitions. Coz its getting buggy although i did a partial format on the c drive. Seems that the bug is running from the other drives. So i took the advice from josh to format the PC late night n leave it running till morning then can liao. Apparantly i heed his advice a bit too much as i tried to format the PC so late a night that my eyes wanna close le. Its about 2am then. These days i have been sleeping early (1-2am) coz i am waking up early to go to school. Thanks to big bear for picking me up to school everyday, allowing me to save approximately not only money n time for the 2-3 buses i have to transfer. So in sacrifice, i have to be up early. i feel its a good trade considering that i like to be the early bird type. I always feel sleep is a waste of time. And that waking up early will my the best of "man's" time. :)

Think i digress untill dun know wat am i writing le. Or maybe its the white wine... lol

*Read blog again...

Oh i got it. So as i was formatting the PC, the windows installer prompt me where i wanna install my OS. So i saw a couple of drives there. Not noticing the drive names and alphabets. I del every drive i saw, since i have the idea to format all my harddisk. But think i must have been to sleepy, as the Portable HDD was also attaached to the PC n it reconganised! So without knowing wat the at is, i del everything.... EVERYTHING!!! So now i am left with threee EMPTY HDD... Where one i am installing the win xp.

I must say i am devastated loh, coz that portable HDD is wat i backuped from my pc. Almost everthing from pictures, to documents, to movies, to games... OMG my games.... T_T So i was very sianz then. Ironically i actually did a backup of the portable HDD. But the file is inside the portable HDD. How sad.. All came to a end when josh says there is a way to recover the info. Since then he have download the software to do so. He memtioned it might take hours to recover the info, if not days.... @_@ Only hope it will work.

Well, u must be thinking that losing the backup data is sad, wait till u hear the next news!?! This next news promised to be "shock sky shake earth" lol.

I actually left a document folder on the MRT train n totally forget about it for the next 6 hrs!!! Unbelieveable loh, how can one be so forgetful... Sigh... And to "snow top add snow" the assignments inside the folder is actually due the next day!?! Imagine me copying all 18 pages (double sided) since the moment i step into the classroom. All the rest of them come in see see look look finish liao... sigh. Took me one whole day, till 5pm till i rushed through the 8 questions. Some more question 8 is copy wholesale one. Dun even feel that the equations make sense.

That about round's up my day today. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day when i handel the operations. Seems that there is a great deal of work coming in n there might be insufficient boats to handle... OMG!?! *hanged*

Satisfying meal...

Jus return from ABC market n had a hearty meal of Wantan noodles.

Actually we were looking at this blog where the blogger wrote lotsa reviews on hawker food, so we decided to visit one of them nearby. ABC market.

The Wantan stall was not hard to find. Right at the centre of the hawker. Centre row, centre block, at one edge.

Ordered two big bowls. $3 bucks. Its really two big bowls loh. One for the noodles. which seems like a serving for two. Two man serving. Not the ladies type. The noodles was well prepared. Saw the stall uncle dipped the noodles in cold water before serving. Nowadays not much people useds this style of cooking. "Lazy" turn out the noodles was still tangy, yet wet n soft. I like~ The sauce was also very wet. Notice the stall lady put some "lor chap" before serving. Maybe that adds to the taste.

The Char Siew is below average ba. Not those fatty n wet king. Dry ones. Nothing mucht to comment. The wantan was also normal ba. Reasonably sized wantan with meat, dun think i tasted prawn inside. Or maybe i wolfed them down too fast le. lol.

Oh the whole, its a satisfiying meal. Big portion n great taste. If only the char siew was a bit fatty n the wantan was bigger... (Er... That would be a prawn dumpling liao right? lol)

Well here the pic if u guys n gals were wondering...

Stealth movement @ Nat Lib

Yes, this is where i am now. @ the 9th floor of Nat Lib near bugis. Actually i was supposed to meet josh for dinner, but apparantly he got some singing near SMU, hence i decided to walk walk here.

I am so ashame to admit that this is actually my first time in this section of the lib. Not that i frequent the one at B1, but at least i got walk in n out that level coz parking her is cheap at $2 bucks per entry after 5pm.

So i also made my first visit into the "Central Lending Library" (took me quite a while to find out where i was thru the lib system).

My first impression, *ITS PACKED!!*

Almost every corner is filled with peoples. Not jus people, but peoples*... (Wahaha, pardon my limited languages.) So i walked around n tot of going to a section where i would find something that i would actually read. I pick up a system n start typing, *wind energy* (coz its actually my project title.) No respond. Apparantly the pc is spoilt. lol. Found another one n this time its working. Type *wind energy* respond... No result found!!! WTF?!?

After a few more serch i realise that the nat lib dun really have much books that is related to my course. I think my SP lib got so much more stuffs when i type *wind energy*

Well, since josh is here already, i shall write more about my first visit to the Lee Kong Chian reference lib later ba.

Er... Provided i still remember the details. :)

So many stuffs, so little time...

Well, there is so much to update since the last post. Tat i dun know where to start...

Oh, pls pardon my setting, i kinda forget to set it to middle...

*ponders for approximately 5mins...*

Start from...

*another 5 mins pass...*
*look for photos to start blogging...*

Ok since i have some photos of me n josh going to AMK to eat the crab beehoon~

Ok it all started when josh n i were bored out on wat to do on sun, with nothing in our mind, n since we decided to hav dinner together, i decided to go AMK hub. Since its like the next new thing in SG.

We set off pretty late around 3 since josh was practising with his gang on christmas songs. Seems tat they do hav lot of "orders" this chirstmas. cool!

After picking him up, we set off to AMK. All thanks to my "powderful" N95 n its GPS system, we managed to get there without a breeze. less the few turns we made abruptly no thanks to the late voice navigation from the phone.

AMk hub looks like TPY hub to me. But we didnt go there straight. We went around to AMK ave 3 where the famous crab beehoon was. Initially i tot i nvr been to this place n wanna try it out. turn out that it was one of the place where my sis actually brought my family there before. Apprantly i wasnt tat much a "food" person then. lol. *thinking about wat kind of shape i was then.*

So there was two stalls that sells the crab stuffs. The one that josh guided me to was also the one i ate before. Apparantly its suppose to be the more famous one. :) Since it was 4pm, n we werent really that hungry n craving for crab, we decided to drop by AMK hub for a walk.

Parking at AMK hub was er... "horrendous" If i didnt count wrongly, there was at least 5 round the circles before we rech the carpark. N it was jammed... Took us nearly 30mins to park our car, or rather van. lol

So we walk walk here n walk walk there n picked up some food along the way. There was this very salty "Taiwan Crispy Fried Chicken", brings me back memories when i was in taiwan training the cadets, I ate so much fried chicken then n its was uncomparable to wat we have here. Its simply.... "Ahhhhh...." Well, we didnt miss the NTUC hypermart there. There isnt any chance that we will miss a supermaket together, esp when its somewhere we seldom go. lol *i can sense josh starting his "meow meow" curse*


Its kinda a big place as seem here, taken from the 4th storey
Oh crap... i jus realise that i am getting super "loh sor" on this le. dun think i can write the rest of the happenings that i wanna write...

*speed up*

Went back to the crab coffee shop. Josh was saying it would be packed if we were too late. I wasnt really gonna believe it until i saw this...


Queue when we came. But it longer when we reach the end.


Pick of the Coffee shop from the front.


Pick of the restuarant name.


Total waste of money for this... Guess how much this is?!?


The king of the meal, Butter crab.


The queen of the meal, since i dun really like think bee hoon. Crab beehoon.


Well, this is wat make the crab restuarant real good. BTW, see how skillful the guys have deshell the crab. lo. N it could only be.... ME ME ME!!!








Anyway, i have to say, the crab are really fantastic! They are meaty n pretty well cooked. BUT... they also cost super duber EX! We paid a total of 85 bucks for tat meal loh!?! The two crab already 70 bucks. The "crabby -> pronouced as REAL CRAP. not that there is crab meat in it." vege cost us 12 bucks! Well, if u are a crabby person, n craves meaty crabs, i would say its a great place to be! Provided u hav the $$$$$$$ to pay. If not u could simplily pay 12 bucks for three small crabs, not really meaty type, for a crab meal at jur west st 52.

Since i stay nearby, i think i would opt for Jur west one.

the rest is urs to comment. :)

I hav sinned....

Yes, if u noticed my new MSN nick, i hav sin.

Jus got back from vivocity. N i got my sin there. Its from "Carnivore", a brazillian buffet @ vivo which "sin" people... I dun know for sean n jeremy n big bear. But i am sure sinned for eating so much food.

Well, for those who dun know brazillian churassicarian <-- i m very sure the spelling is wrong. Its actually a buffet style restuarant where people will walk around with skerwers in their hands n will serve u whenever u want it. Bascially we had 11 kinds of meat. Not including the "so-so" salad bar they have around. Nothing there interestes me. So there were, 1.ham, 2.chicken thigh, 3.chicken cordon blue (chicken wrap with bacon), 4.terderloin in blue (basically its similar to chicken cordon blue but instead of chicken they hav terderloin.), 5.hum beef <-- which i dun really like, coz of its multi veins around making it kinda "tough" to my liking, 6.sirloin <--- which is also my fav. :) i think i had 4 cuts of it! yeah!, 7.top beef <--- not top as in top quality but i guess its the top end of the coq ba. lol, 8.sausagues <--- which is kinda tough n hard, 9.beef ribs, 10.lamp, 11.pork shoulder, 12.pineapple <--- all brazilian churrassarian hav this. They goes extrememly well after u hav a full tummy. (p.s. Brazillian at the Vibe "Hotel Negera" serves much better pineapple, they hav cinnimon n sugar on the out side.)

Actually i would really really recommend brazillian at "The vibes" (Hotel Negera). Coz they hav much much more side dishes. In fact i jus went last month when we were celebrating a friend's birthday. Oh wait... it last last month. i m not so "piggy" to eat buffet every month. lol, hang on or i m not?!?..... lol

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mmm... i might as well upload some pics we took tat time. (So that my friends will not say i nvr send them the pics)


This is our birthday girl that night.


Check out the side dishes!!!


Snow crab?!?


Snow crab deshelled?!?!? *note how skillfully the person have deshelled the crab. *note note, the person is .... *note note note, "ME". wahahaha


Some of the meat we had.... I got the kind of feeling that the meat weren't the main course. lol


This is the cinnimon sugar pineapple. Looks great, taste even better!!!


This is the deeser bar


This is the choco fountain


Look WS have to waste so much food for the pic below...


Choco food, from the fountain. Wahaha, wicked right?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, back to today. So we actually knows how "better" "The vibe" is liao right? Anyway i took a photo or jeremy n his starters.


Mind u, he ate more stuffs then me after finishing that plate of stuffs...

Ok, beside the brazillian, i also had classes in the morning.
Yes, i jus began my 10mths fulltime course at SPGG (Singapore Poly graduates guild) Its a course from UGS (Uni of Glasgow) Its BEng in Naval Arch n Marine Eng. The venus is a great place. There is a small swimming pool, which i n my gang gonna swim there tomorrow at lunch, functions rooms, tennis courts, bilard room, n even BOWLING alley!!! Think i gonna put my ball in big bears car liao.

Class in fun. Well, hopefully its gonna stay fun thruout. The admin staff n lec are pretty nice people. N guess wat, i was made the SP class rep. Oh, there was actually students from SP as well as NP. After shooting arrow all round when the lec announce the need of a class rep, i was arrowed... Army style... Actually i tot Boon Hou was a better choice since he is more responsible. I feel i am not the respo type. Tends to be playful at times n forgot stuffs... Sigh... But i think i gave the lec a good impression. :) Some more i am thinking of choosing him as my lec for my final year project. Hopefully it will help then. :)

Ok, even before class, some think happen. or rather the day before....

Sun, 30th Sept 2007, approx 1500 hrs. Big bear n xiaomei bought their Wii....
The nintendo third gen console. Actually i kinda recommend it to them. In fact, i recommend to quite a few couples. Coa i feel, in a relationship, The most important part of being together is to understand each other. By common "hi n bye" n "work, eat, sleep" together will not be enough to maintain a good relationship. Some form of community things have to be done together to understand each other more. One of the way is to play games together. it like doing something together, preferably something that both will like to do together. So that from there they can develop better relationship together. Look at xiaomei n big bear, they almost do everything together. That must be y they are able to be so happy n loving together always. (Bless u2 forever love) Er... seems that i have a drop to many liao. lol. Finally managed to bring my tequila level to below 1/2. :)

Oh i forgot that i camped at their place tat night. yes we played Wii. It was fun. But the funnest part is yet to be played. Looking forward to Zelda n Dragonball battles. supposely u will have to wield the arrow or shoot the fireball jus like a real stuffs! Cool...

So tat kinda round up my stuffs yesterday. :)
Now i have to go back to sleep after i finish drinking my fourth cup of tequila. :)
Oh... i didnt memtioned that i actually mis 50% tequila n 50% water n ice in the bag.

Zzzz....
