Handwriting Analysis!

Hey hey.. to everybody who is bored with doing so much work.. u can try this handwriting analysis thingy at the webby. Quite accurate. I'm surprised!

at the end of it u'll have a long report.. i'll just cut and paste some here.

Shyuan uses judgment to make decisions. She is ruled by her head, not her heart. She is a cool, collected person who is usually unexpressive emotionally. Some may see her as unemotional. She does have emotions but has no need to express them. She is withdrawn into herself and enjoys being alone. -- hahaha how true is that!
......
The circumstances when Shyuan does express emotions include: extreme anger, extreme passion, and tremendous stress. If someone gets her mad enough to tell her off, she will not be sorry about it later. She puts a mark in her mind when someone angers her. She keeps track of these marks and when she hits that last mark she will let them know they have gone too far. She is ruled somewhat by self-interest. All her conclusions are made without outside emotional influence. She is very level-headed and will remain calm in an emergency situation. In a situation where other people might get hysterical, she has poise. -- s0 please dont agitate me too much. This is true. If i really flare up at u.. u've successfully hit the limit.
.....
Shyuan will demand respect and will expect others to treat her with honor and dignity. Shyuan believes in her ideas and will expect other people to also respect them. She has a lot of pride.
.....
She has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. Her mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. She can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Shyuan can then switch into her low gear. When she is in the slower mode, she can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. She is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip. -- wahaha must show alice this.. Not i lazy never do my dissertation, i'm trying to be creative!
.....
Shyuan basically feels good about herself. She has a positive self-esteem which contributes to her success. She feels she has the ability to achieve anything she sets her mind to.A good esteem is one key to a happy life. Although there is room for improvement in the confidence catagery, her self-perception is better than average. -- Haha.. thinking too highly of myself. oops.
.....
Shyuan is very self-sufficient. She is trying not to need anyone. She is capable of making it on her own. She probably wants and enjoys people, but she doesn't "need" them. She can be a loner. -- oh no i'm a certified loner!!
.....

Comp lab KTV

Went comp lab last night to do work but ended up not doing much..

After fen left, we got quite bored and started youtubing and sang along. Free KTV session. Haha.. But this random guy came in and we had to act normal again. Spent half the time msning with mel and nana, coming out with ways to scare the guy away.

Then we decided to continue singing and maybe that will scare the guy away. nana started singing very softly to warm up.. she still ask if she can dance! HAHAH.. Anyway after some time we really started singing. lol. the guy dont seem to be easily tramatised though. Mel later saw the same guy on the train home. hahaha..

Word of advice: Singapore is very small, try your best not to be mean to people.
Difficulty level : ****

Comp lab KTV is fun but funnier. Xiao si wo le. cannot laugh out loud somemore.

OH. and i had my first krispy kreme in my life yesterday and my first supper since I moved to KE! :)

Eusoff!

Eusoff on a Thursday Morning.
Met up with Ian and Kimpeng for dinner today. It was nice meeting them again. Aik Khoon pang seh! Made me wear so prettily go FONG SENG. boooooo.

Anyway has been ages since i last went fongseng to eat. We had the Taiwan food and they increased the price! So expensive. And confirm they are selling China food lor.. what taiwan. Sell bubble tea only dont make you a taiwan eatery hor.

Visited Ian's room after dinner. Hmmmm.. Eusoff feels half familiar. Half familiar because the sights are familiar but the feeling isnt. Its like.. Yes I've walked around this place so many times but it feels different this time.

Ian's room is very neat. And i once again confirmed that Eusoff's room is bigger than KE's!

He brought the All Blacks thingy back.
Guess who? HAHA.
One year ago at this time of the year, i was thinking "Oh! I'll just be waiting to go NZ once all this work is over"

One year later, I'm thinking of what I thought one year ago.

Dissertation disaster

OMG. 10 mins ago i was still daydreaming. now i'm back in reality after a very long break.

Just saw Alice's email. Her words have a direct impact on the sales of Coffee. This is not a sweeping statement.

"well a first draft should have all the chapters with most of the work done, and then I will suggest improvements. I woud expect it to be submitted according to dept guidelines" (Christudason, 2008) <-- must cite incase get sued for intellectual property rights. You just should not play around with a law practitioner
OMG. full draft????
I'm at word 0. need to get to word 10 000 in 2 weeks.
God Bless.

TeamNUS Nite

Last saturday was TeamNUS Nite! So silly leh.. the place is at UCC but I didnt read the notice properly and kept thinking it was at Uni Hall for some reason... and so i alighted at the wrong place!

University hall and UCC is super far apart can! I had to walk there in my heels because saturday bus service frequencies are pretty horrible. Blistered.

The NUS pingpongers. Sanduo, Melissa, me, Niqi.

The event required guys to wear shirt and tie while girls have to wear something equivalent. I was very scared I will overdress already until i saw every other girl there like wanna go for DnD like that. Dresses and dresses.

Our awards. This picture very weird leh. I cant decide if my arm looks exceptionally muscular or flabby.
My seat number is M17! The whole thing ended at 7. I WAS SO HUNGRY.
My new paperweights.
I even have a TeamNUS paperbag. beat that. Unless u tell me u got TeamNUS umbrella or tissuepaper. If not i win for having the most miscellaneous teamnus stuff.

AND.... Eusoff just called me to go back and take picture. The hall master wants all the eusoffians who got the teamnus award thingy to come tgt can take a picture. It will be made into a banner and hung out the hall. HAHAHA. That damn weird! I have no idea why I am involved in this! If KE ppl sees it...
Anyway. I have the last laugh. :)

Danger lurks everywhere!

Was watching this program on discovery channel called Most Evil. Today's episode is on Cannibals and vampires. SO SCARY.

I cant understand why people can bring themselves to eat people. Seems like most of these killers have a bad childhood!

What buffled me more is why people volunteer to be eaten.
Story:

This guy, the killer has this fascination with cannibalism. So he posted an ad online looking for volunteers. And the victim actually replied to the post saying "I hope you find me tasty"

Huh... who is crazier???

The victim must have had a even worse childhood (Sharifah, 2008)

And then they talked about Vampirism. So vampirism is not a mental disorder thingy, it is almost like a lifestyle! gosh. They interviewed this inmate who was prisoned for vampirism and he is very normal leh. Apparently did alot of research on vampirism too.

He said people always associate him with satan. He said vampirism and satanism is different. it is 2 different things. And when the interviewer asked if he is still attracted to the life of vampirism, he replied "wow thats a large question" and later concluded that it is still a large part of his life.

This is what wikipedia has to say about the vampirism lifestyle:
The subculture is so prevalent and involved as to result in the publication of at least two glossy magazines devoted to the topic, while the Internet remains a prevalent forum for the community.

Got glossy magazine somemore leh!!

Anyway my conclusion is: this world is very dangerous actually.

BB the music dog.

BB came to my house the other day and my sis started playing her piano.. the dog not wanting to be left out insisted on going up the organ chair which is next to the piano.

A very happy BB. She has a natural smile! Too bad she is camera-shy. If you try to take out hp to take a picture of her she will walk away.
After getting up the chair.. she wanted to get to the piano but realise she cannot reach. HAHA.
because she was drooling all over the place, Alvin took her off the chair.

Spot the dog!

And so she decided to settle for the role of an audience instead of a pianist. Anyway this audience is very particular. She barks at you if you anyhow play! :(

Save the Lions!

Once upon a time, a lion sees a human and the human sees the lion in the vast savanna of Africa.
Human: y not i kill it first? since one of us have to die?
Lion: whats that skinny animal over there? Nah, I'll look a zebra for lunch.. I dont believe in diets
Human: OH damn, I bet the lion thinks I look delicious.
Bang bang!
Lion dies from her random stroll, never sees her cubs again.
Human becomes hero overnight for his kill on his random stroll, passes the story to his future generation, inspiring the young ones.
....
Story happens over and over for 1000 times.
The End.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think I want to save lions in Africa. Haha... That's my current impulse. Sounds absurd but I really want to save animals! MAybe I can make that my grad trip... when i told fenella lim abt it she was like "LIONS????" hahahah...
Saw this program which requires volunteers to take care of lion cubs before reintroducing them back into the wild.
Mr lion looks kinda intimidating

Very cute mah! Lion cubs. Just like cats. but bigger.. and gets even BIGGER as time goes by.

The little ones can be very fierce too!




But but but.... There's a problem! In fact there are many problems.

I think I'm too 娇生惯养 to go africa la! If I cant combat those bugs in KE.. what makes me think I can save lions in africa... Bet the bugs there are like bigger, grosser and... fly faster!! eeeewwww. And it is not just the bugs.. volunteer work is never easy, what more you are working with animals. PLus its AFRICA............. was comfortably tucked under my blanket with the aircon on when i started to imagine life in Africa.

Must be real tough.


And it is expensive. I checked the air ticket to south africa is like $2000. The cost of being there for 2 weeks also about $2000. How much does a grad trip usually cost? I think i can lead a very comfortable life in like Taiwan with $4000 to spend for 2 weeks. Dont want to anyhow spend my parent's money...

Dilemma dilemma!

I'll expect this lion saving thing to be very rewarding. hmmmmmmmmm i always want to do weird things.

Maybe this is just going to be a passing thought. Seems all too incredible to come true. haha.

F1 (slightly subsided) fever.





It is amazing how i got the F1 fever when i know nuts about the sport and have never been interested in a single race.



It all started when my sis came home very excited on Saturday. She was telling us how she went to city hall, heard all the VROOM VROOM from the station and got super excited. Haha.. I tried to imagine and.... sounds quite fun huh! Haha.. I've got a very vivid imagination. Anyway she was complaining she cant see a thing. Could only hear the Vroom vroom getting louder louder louder... cars coming coming coming... BUT CANNOT SEE. She claimed to be too short to witness the excitment. Haha.. Alvin managed to catch a glimpse of it.






AND.... My dad actually got to watch it from the stands! His client gave him a corporate ticket which i heard is super expensive. The ticket includes lots of food too. Tea break, dinner, supper... Haha.. but he watched it on sat la.. will be so exciting if he has the Sunday Ticket!







Dad was complaining the race was too noisy. The ear plugs didnt quite help. Haha.. His seat faces the starting and finishing line! So he is the first few to know who is number 1! Haha.. Dad came back before the race was over.. He didnt want to squeeze with the crowd. Didnt seem too excited over the whole thing leh.. The fellow who didnt manage to see anything was much more excited. And that includes the other fellows imaging the whole thing at home.



Anyway I support McLaren for the F1! Mainly because i only know Lewis Hamilton. Part of the credit have to go to fenella lim for her creative attempt which made everybody remember this Lewis guy. Ferrari seems nice too! Motivated to learn driving. Haha.. cyr, txr.. when are we gonna learn?



Conclusion made after watching the whole F1 thing: Never jaywalk on the F1 track when the race is in progress. 1st, they'll knock you over before they even realise they knocked someone. 2nd, assuming u are super lucky and managed to dodge the first car, good luck with the rest of the 17 attempts.



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



Random stuff!



1.Bro bought the new Jay Chou album and it came with this Rubik Cube. Once we started playing with it, we cant turn it back already. This was the last time we saw it completed.



*my thumb looks abnormally long in there.
