Wat a lousy weekend it will turn out to be...

Half way thru Friday, i already got 3 appointments made for the weekends. Dinner with old time 'SI' friends on sat night. Should be having one of the awaited buffet of the month. 'Hanabi' at oden towers. Its been quite a while since i last had buffet. Remembering the last time was at Clementi woods, Sakura. Which didnt turn out the best of buffet but the company was good enough. Second one was full day plan with my friend to nursary n botanic gardens n prawn fishing on sunday.
Last was a marjong session with my old time secondary buddie tonight. Which i turn away, knowning that i have quite a number of work tonight n the session will not be very enjoyable. After which i planned to meet another friend for dinner. But another long time no see friends called to jo me to visit his house n play some board games together. Really wanted to meet him coz long long time nvr see each other n almost everytime he jo me i cannot make it... Seems tat he a bit 'used' to the rejection as i tried to find a solution to answer to all the planning tonight. (Maybe dinner with this friend then go another friend house...) but inthe end i turn away the dinner with friend and wanted to call accept my friend invitation to his house.
Then suddenly, a last min meeting was to be called tonight. 'wah lao' Actually this meeting, initiated by me, supposed to have started in the morning. But i didnt get confirmation with all parties n end up one party is not available. So we decided to meet at 11 instead. But it was later cancelled coz turn out another party got appointment. So it is later declared tat we either meet this evening around 1600hrs or on sunday morning. Turn out evening is not possible hence i assume we r meeting on sunday. So my sunday outing have to be shaved off half of the planning. Then jus about 15min ago, one party announced to have the meeting later tonight... End up i have to cancel the invitation to friends house again. But jus after calling, then i realised tat one of the party is still in the workshop. N we have to end up waiting for her...
So i 'sianzly' announced that the meeting will be held on sunday 1000hrs in the office n managed to get all the parties to agree. Case closed n the closure of the lousy friday...

N thier dls are super fast!!! 

Not a whole new PC but a whole new C drive

Just formatted my comp n now still in the midst of downloading drivers. 

Stop to dl Opera. Which is a alternative to IE or Mozilla. Seems tat its a whole new type of browser. Got to see it when a friend of mine uses it. Find it quite interesting n 'plain'. Little did i know that they hav lotsa mini programs which make up desktop look like mac. lol. I think its more of a mac wannabe. But the programs looks cool. I jus hope they dun eat up my ram too much.

Part of my reason to format the comp is because my programs are getting too laggy. But i absent-mindedly deleted my downloaded stuff... sigh... got to redownload them. At least i m disappointed i lost some important programs or installers. Not like a friend of mine who got was equally frustrated when some of his 'items' were lost in his comp....

Still got 19 % before my graphics card driver downloads ready. Think by then i will be able to see if its my mainboard problem or its coz i got too much junk in the comp to cause lags. Maybe i might not last till then. lol. Feeling kinda tired now.

Zzzz... 15 % more... so slow...

From this.....















To this.....












Then this .... Would u eat them???

Finally it OVER!!!

Yes! My exams are finally over. But some how I feel that how good it is if it never ends. lol. Contradicting right? Well, I m tat kinda of person. Keep on contradicting myself n even people around me. Until they also very mad at me. Sigh...

Well I got my reasons to wish that exams never ends loh. To think such a lazy person I m, to go to work n see piles of work undone is a very unmotivating sight. N I will just become more n more sianz. Study is brainless. U just do n do n do. None stop. Ur results are guaranteed good. Work is diff, u work n work n work, end up u still kanna *&^% by ur boss coz in their concept, u have nvr done enough. U done something right, u dun seems to be complimented well (or u didnt realised the compliments). But just when u made a wrong decision, u get lots of scolding from them. Worst, they just give u a "disgusting" look. i.e. u r damn lousy. All such behaviors just make u smaller n smaller in the company. But u dun have a choice! In ur mind, u wanna contribute to the company, but u r lazy. But as u want to really stand out n do something, u make a mistake n u r shun off immediately.

Then again, I feel sometimes I m over exaggerating the facts. It might not seem so bad, but i didnt handle them well. Lazy. Seems tat i have found a problem in my life. "LAZY" Gotta get rid of theis fellow, if not i will affect the rest of my life. Another problem is "playful" at in playing games. Seems tat after this i will be switching to playing warcraft n have not kick up this bad habit of mind.

So lesson of the day, two 'devils' to get rid of. First 'lazy' then 'game'

I shall tackle the 'lazy' first. So off to settle my credit cards dues first. p.s. They r due today n i m suppose to get them paid... lol. First problem kicks in. Hopefully i can get this done after this...
Hopefully the second problem dun come in knocking... 'game'

Food food food

Some of other food that i ate this month :)

Singapore Fireworks Display 2

Second of the fireworks display. Watch to the end! they got a fantastic ending! I simply love their ending! It couldnt be better! :)

Singapore Fireworks Display 1

Blogging directly from Youtube. Hope it works

Went to the fireworks festival in the midst of my exams studying didnt really wanna miss this. Though i have already missed two of them. But this was a one worth watching. Set off the place with joshua from the west. Reached the place around 7pm. Looks abit crowded already. Went to grab a quick snack n we r off to the esplanade. When we were there, there was already alot of people gathering. Told joshie that we must get there early to "chop" a good place. n i was very right. The whole esplanade was packed to the max. Never u would have such a chance to see such huge amount of people here. We walked quite a while before we settled down on a area where there was a opening to the sky. Stood there for almost 30 minutes n its already a pain. Somehow i realised the joshie was kinda right in coming in at this time. As the time drew near, people seated on the ground began to stand up. The show is a bout to begin! Luckily joshie got a good position with his tripod. His tipod was kinda short n those people standing up would have block the view of the camera. Suddenly, "BOOM" the first of the fireworks "wowed" the crowds. it was soon followed by lotsa other fireworks.
Some how i feel these fireworks are jus amazing. As u see them fly up the sky one by one, flowering so high with so many colours. It jus make ones happy. Maybe the government did a good job to ban fireworks. If not we would nvr have appreciated these.
I simply loved the ending of this display. Its just matches superbly with a 'bang', telling all "THE END" It couldnt have been a better pharsing. n its just mesmrising. :)

My EQ... Seems tat i m pretty smart :)

Your EQ is 120

50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick! 51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese. 71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely. 91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that. 111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt. 131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin. 150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.

What's Your EQ (Emotional Intelligence Quotient)?

Touched

Was pretty touched on tues in class.

We were busying copying assignments as usual and one of my friends commented tat he waqs called up by the lec because one fellow actually send in assignments with my friends name on it! My friend, foong, was the super smart fellow in class, Being the most "laojiao" one too. He inspired many of us to go library n got so much related books for us to read. N eventually got mony others to go to the lib to loan them.

So this stupid fellow recieved the answers from foong n actually submitted the email to the lec.... Making the lec a fool. So foon decided to created another group in his contact list n marked as "SMENA buddies" n he was happily calling names tat he included inside n my name was called. At that moment, i was like feeling very happy n lucky. Then in class, during the break, he brought out a swedish chocolate n called our gang to come over to eat. Well, its just feels so sweet after tat. Not coz of the chocolate but coz of my friend.

Foong, nice having u as a friend. :)

Updates on last week

Went to esplanande to watch a friend in a acapelle singing competition. They were the best groups around, maybe coz they are the more experienced group n have performed in lotsa places. One which the Voices II at SP last month. Needleless to say, they got their group first. But surprisingly, they did not get the overall champ. Maybe their was other better group which i missed out. But i should say most of the teams are more elementry compared to my friends' team. Stopped half way n walked to marina to eat n we saw this...


Jolin signature concert at MS. n she drew quite a crowd! Well, first time i see her in flesh. Though my camera could get a clear pic of it... Wat do u expect from a hp cam?






Took a short walk after tat n took this. Nice right? Its the war memorial for those who dun know. :) Nice right? :P 

Birthday gathering for kianboon

It was a bdae celebrations for kianboon. A early one coz our friend DH will be flying to india soon. Initially planned to have dinner at "The Vibe" @ Meretius Negera hotel. But many were not avail for dinner. Hence we decided not to eat coz CF dun feel like eating it. (Its a meaty buffet as they serve meat in skewers. Brazillian style. More meat then any other thing.) End up eating Pariss instead. Which proof to be a lousy choice.

First the price is super ex! 50 bucks for the meal. We wanted to call the bdae boy to treat! But still have to pay later... Food variety was lousy. Though they have crabs, lobster salad, sashimi (lots of them), chicken chop, lamb chop blah blah. But the quality was slightly below average. Didnt really enjoyued those food.

Moreale of the story, dun spent such $$$ on Pariss. I m sure there is better ones out there. ask joshie is u not sure. He would gladly contribute.

Went to the KTV after tat. Its party world. Oh did i mentioned tat i went to make a CITIbank platinium credit card in one hours time! It was superb service n fast too. Tot the Citibank card can get discount, but its not valid on weekends....

Got some photos from the KTV.
