THird Day here at DOswell!! Doing Well!!

Yay!! Currently my roomies and I are super happy because we finally got ventilation in our room! We have been sleeping without airconditioning for the past two nights, and finally, Maintenance has repaired it and we can finally not sleep in stuffiness anymore! Yayness!!

okay time for some pics now!

When we first left Changi, on the way to the plane we saw both the Sun and the Moon!! How cool is that? My first time!! The light behind the clouds is the sun, and the circle is the moon! Dunno if it is some sign..

Then in Taiwan there was this cute Hello Kitty room! All pink man! Ter sure like!
And here's the guy I came with. No comments. I'm just glad I got into the ride I wanted! :)) Or at least it's one of the exciting rides. ahha and he's in kid rides! Gdgdgd. Further the better. :S Heh I stole a pic of him cos i knew I was gg to blog... :S
Here's abit of my room here!!
It's kinda cozy, like hostel, and currently it's just me and my two pretty roomies from Ukraine! They're teaching me some russian/Ukrainian, and we were so hungry on the first day they cooked this ultra tasteless thing called Chernomb. or smth that sounds like this, and it's like some kinda grain which is supp to be eated with dishes like our rice for the CHinese!
And we were so sad cos we haven't done groceries, that we ate it with cheese and canned beans, which is damn sick!! SO tasteless unlike Heinz!! Thats y we really all craving to go to walmart, which is only by a bus which comes once a week, next tues!! :((


Anyway, as i said, I made great friends with this gal who's got so much in common w me! We're both Bao's gd friend! And she dances, and likes theatre, and eats spicy, and sings kbox, and came here all the way by herself too, like me!! How awesome. :D

THen here's some of the surroundings and the themepark! OKay I know it doesn't really show much cos i haven't taken much, but here's a peek anyways! :)
The nearest salvation for food! A petrol station cum truckers stop
Playing around the Road signs at the intersection~

Some cool stuff here at our themepark! Will take more sooN!
Okays, here's all for now, Going down to eat orange w Yonghui! And tml i have training at 5pm, meaning i can finally sleep e morning away!!
YAy!! alrightey, Nato Branicht!! Which is Gd Night in Ukraine spelt my way! :D

Second day here at Doswell! All's Well!! :)

I'm down in Virginia now!! Though honestly. It's been pretty boring. It's 530pm already, and it's my second day here, and i've been stuck in my room watching tv and fbing since 2pm! After doing my papers today this morning.. there really isn't much to do around here!

Anyway at least i made some good friends with the sporeans around..Yesyes, there's tommy too. He was the first to greet me when i came! Actually it isn't too bad really. Somehow it was comforting to see a familiar face. Okay! I'm not gg to have anth w him if u're thinking anything. He is still a bit perverse because he really observes the most perverse things. Of girls. haha another story for another day.

The trip here was a mini hell. Because of the guy i came with. Otherwise, it was pretty good! It's quite navigatable travelling alone. I kinda like it! Actually I wished I was REALLY alone. Cos the other guy, was just an enormous liability! Total different wavelength so we can't communicate, his first time travelling so he doesn't know anything, okay dont' blame him for that. But the worst thing is that he has no initiative or any sense of time or anything! Bad enough u don't know anything; at least make the initiative to ask for directions or like how to get to the next place or what to do next right!!! I ended up doing everything myself. Not that I minded, but it was quite frustrating with him tagging along. LIke wth. u're 22 and u're m'sian so u shld've travelled before, then somemore everything kao me do, buay paiseh rely on a girl to do everything!!?

THe worst thing is now he's still hanging ard me cos he know I can talk quite abit and make friends easily..and he is doing rides with me!! SOBS!! I hope we're not doing the same ride. PLSPLSPLSPLSPLS God pls make my life better when work starts! Don't let me see him everyday!!! *prays hard* I hope it's not the karma i'll get because I really thought evil thoughts when I was w him on the 4 flights to USA. COuldn't help it!! ok i won't blog it here cos blogspot has no entrylocks haha.

ANyway. so I'll get to know my rides tml, and I truly hope it's not the same as him!! We went down to HR today to get our papers done, and met this other sporean girl, Yong Hui, who's from TSd in NUS. SO happy to meet another like-minded individual!! We talked quite abit on e way back, w the guy hanging around, and at least shared some plans abt our travels and stuff. I'm so happy she likes theatre and wants to watch the things i wanna watch in NYC too!! which is fab!

Anw, after that the guy msned me and told me if i got plans i must tell him so he can decide if he can come. DECIDE IF HE CAN COME LEH! wth. howhowhow *cries* I cannot shuai him off liao..sighs. I really hope things get better.

Maybe cos its abit boring today thats y i'm ranting. Thank god there's SPONGEBOB!! haha to entertain me now while i'm so bored.. Oh! Yes, i'm staying w two Ukrainians, but we can't really talk very much cos they don't understand English much..only the basics. But we hit off quite well yesterday cos I started telling them about Singapore and well. Universal language is FOOD! haha so got them started on food and we chatted quite abit.

Okay I'll post pics soon when I take them! Didn't take any cos I had no mood w e guy. :S Hope this entry ain't too many words!! :))

Two of the four of us have pulled out from WAT. I'm not done packing. USA has officially 2000++ H1N1 cases. Washington D.C has kena-ed. I'm going to fly there w the M'sian whom I thought was a PRC. China Airlines might not have any entertainment. GG!!

Lord please ease my panic! :S

Firsts, and Lasts..

Sitting in my really dusty room now, with small random stuff strewn over my table.. Half my things are gone now; I've definitely seen my room in a better state.. Sighs. So I'm half-packed and moving out of KR...most people have already started leaving, and the C-D area is clogged with cars right now..

Bengtatt and Christoph both flew today, and we partied Chris's last night away at le Baroque; Experienced firsts again..My first time at Chjimes, for real, and this, I have to note down..my first ***f, which was, something I always wanted to try but never wanted to start.. But then. Apparently the will is weak and the force is strong? haha. hm ok la. Interesting. Don't like it at all though, didn't think I would also.. so it prolly won't ever be a habit I'll pick up. :) Well, at least the guys said I look hot with it. haha!

Anyway, it was a fun night! Company was good, and we danced abit and drank abit, and laughed and photowhored abit, and Chris cried abit, and 4k went crazy for abit, and we ended it with poker back in hall! Which, to my utter disappointment, was my loss for the third time in a row. I was really upset with myself, which has NEVER happened at a poker session before. sighs. Shldn't have turned out that way. I think 70bucks is a bit painful. And I just lost quite a bit of confidence in myself which ruined my whole play I think. :(

There's poker tourney right now, and I'm a bit reluctant, but because AC's playing for the first time in so long, I really wanna be in it! Helps that I found like 60bucks in my drawer while packing. Hehe! sighs. I better buck up my skills and use my brains.

oh still, I'm loving the last few days of this sem.. :))

Major Chillouts!

And so, the weeks around the exam, I took a major chill pill! Basically I have been slacking and hanging around people, and absorbing every ounce of Cblock and loved ones before I fly of next WEd! :(

Major Pic upload now! Warning: This entry might be long.

We had Finale supper at sheares for the cheezy chicken, and a day before that, me and blackie were rushing to finish our gifts for them! We ended at 7am man, no joke! I'm really damn proud of it la! So cute! But really damn leh chey to make! We had tiny dresses cut out for e dolls, that I was personally in charge of, and even had hairbands for them! But we were so out of time we didn't even make any for ourselves.. :(
I'm glad the fyfs liked it! At least something for them to remember our final blast :)

And then there was the bored Saturday before the exam, when I really had to chill, so settled my craving for Brewerkz w Tat..the meal was awesome la, satisfying man! Caught up a bit with Tat too, who's apparently getting tired of singlehood.. lol.
And then the day after some of my babes finished one of their many papers, we took off to Vivo for some good food and Wolverine!! It is awesome! I love X-men, and Wolverine was always my fave character! Woots, Gambit had some screen time too! Chilled out at Kim Gary, and was so happily tucking in, we almost forgot our movie and had to cancel our deserts cos we were late! haha but I love times like this, and it's so sad cos Huili n Mindy will both not be around next sem! :(
And then yesterday, it was a Date w Daryl, haha, at Timbre! Long-needed catch up session! It's been so long since I've met any of the 41-ers, and even longer since I caught up w Daryl indiv.. thought we used to be much closer, and I'm glad nothing has changed, after the chillout session w him last night.. :))

The next best thing was, Surath was singing! I just HAD to go to the ARts house timbre. WoooootS! Surath rocks big time. It was so comfortable, listening to him crooning my favourites, with such awesome company.

Oh, then the night got better because guess who walked in! Baby and Lester! It was so funny, cos they dedicated "When u love someone" to me, and Surath read their note: Hope u find a Boyfriend soon.. Like. *Hinthint* from Lester..and then I dedicated "Straight from the heart" back to them..partially cos I wanted to hear Surath sing that lah. haha. Anyway it was such a happy night! First time I get a song dedicated to me and I get to hear all my favs from Surath too!

And then I went back with them, and we hung out at Fullerton because Lester wanted to take a crap in its high class toilets, haha! And then went to Glutton's bay abit for some drinks, and then, it was back home to C Block for Poker!!! :))) haha best way to end the night.

I lost 30 tho. haha. but company was great, and we played til morn after our Mac bfasts, and so, I've slept from 7am til 12pm now, and will be heading off to town w sis and then for Kbox with the Cblockers tonight...something I have to accomplish before Lester and the rest grads, and then there's also chillout at Chjimes tml w them too! yay so happy for the influx of Cblock outings! And then there's more ppl to catch up with before Wednesday..so much to do suddenly, and so little time!

I was getting the pre-trip jitters, but talking to Lester n Cass made it so much better, and I hope things go smoothly! Well. I will update again soon, hopefully before I fly! :)

In this world, there is no place I'd rather be..

I was right. C.ommand. W.ill be A.wesome T.onight, as promised by the C.W.A.T team, was indeed awesome, tho less teary than the past few. Maybe because it was my own. I am more than satisfied at how it turned out, and it's the perfect closure.

Thanks C.W.A.T for everything, the C-onfession session and the C-ommand part.. it was more than I could ask for. :))

Time to sleep! We ended officially at 530am, and then left ard 7am, went to have bfast at Engine Macs and just got back and showered. Cblock really trumps all blocks. :)) Updates again soon!

Emo entry

Today, after my thai quiz, came the quiet acknowledgement of freedom..the past consecutive weeks of non-stop flurrying, stressing about several projects and presentations at the same time, has finally come to an end! It was really the busiest I've experienced in my 3 yrs man. Esp w command practices. However, quiet, because it also marks the almost-end of my semester, and I'm not excited because it means I'm just left with one more, which is going to be different anw because things would've changed with the FYFs gone..

Tonight, will be the most apt closure, for it's Cblk C-ommand! I haven't really been looking forward to it's arrival, though I can say I am pretty excited about its contents.. I'm just not anticipating the emo part; I don't even know what to say in my speech! I remember about a coupla months ago I was thinking of this night, my mind full of things I wanted to say..I was on the bus, and then David tan's "til the end" came on, and I cried all the way from KR to Far east.

Siao. that was damn emo. I think the night before I played poker and enjoyed it a bit too much, and was just thinking on that ride that I'll really miss all these moments; the guys' cute antics; all my special times here; times that will never repeat once I step out of Kr's glass doors. Arrgh emo. I think the FYFs have started to learn how to mentally let go, but because I'm still in the middle of leaving and staying, I am so lost!

I wonder how Alvin Ng coped. I wonder what I'll say tonight. I wonder if.. ....Actually. I know it's gonna be a great C-ommand, and there's this overwhelming pride because I knwo the rest of the blocks have just finished theirs, and no matter how, none of them will beat the experience the Cblockers will get tonight.

Sighs. I probably did something good my last life to deserve Cblock. :S

Bus blog!

Alright, on the bus now, on the way home. Sadly, this is the only time I really have to blog. Stuck in a bus full of people, with this guy almost dozing onto my shoulder...eeks! And I almost couldn’t get a seat! Had to rush the half of my report on the bus before I hit home. Can’t believe I’m this busy. Lots to say about Command! Pics and vids have all been uploaded on FB and I’m guilty of spending most of these nights watching them over and over again, feeling the waves of satisfaction everytime the crowd cheered and awwed.

I HAVE POST-COMMAND BLUES!! Miss the late night practices and the times spent with all the fyfs..I am really proud to say I have at least played in a rock band in my entire life! And danced too. In front of an audience!! Surprisingly, before I stepped up to perform, I felt no ounce of trepidation or panic. AMAZING. Haha. I think a few of the finale peeps were shivering in their knees juz before we went up! I usually feel like puking. I think I was just high on adrenaline?

Anyway, it was a mind-blowing success! Really really felt so proud and happy we did it! Like what Lester said, “this easily trumps anything else I’ve done in hall” Yeahhhh!!~ Apart from maybe parts of FWOC and blueblood? Thanks to all the FYFs who've made it wonderful, and Blackie, for being such a great i/c, I've truly learnt much from u, and had lots of fun along e way! :)

And truly, I think the ppl who’ve Commanded would agree that Command really brings people together. I’ve come to know how awesome some hall peeps really are, like Nick n Juan, Andi Kurnia, Alvan, Wilson kam, and really really nice people like meisi, yunhui, pearline..People I would otherwise not have ever spoken to in my entire life!

I think our batch of FYFs did a great job, and at the same time got pretty close, for acquaintances, at least. It’s like, at least we’ve done something awesome together, you know? That kind of feeling where we will always look back on and know that we’ve been a part of something we created together. Even if after this we all go separate ways and prolly only see some others only once more in our entire life, or even not at all..

I cried when we did our family song..totally didn’t expect it seconds before when we were behind the curtain..cos we just did a fantastic finale, so where got mood to cry? But somehow, I burst into tears when we merged into the crowd, after I saw Baby and Joycie and Cass and the 6thfloorers.. :S And I think I’m damn embarrassed especially at one pt of time, when I saw Big Lionel, I actually meant to laugh and say “ I can’t believe it’s my turn now!” and went to hug him but somehow I ended up sobbing it out on his shoulder.. That was embarrassing. I think some ppl saw. :S haha

I think Cblk command will be more emotional man. I really can’t imagine. Sighs. People come and go. I've just got to learn to let go right now. KR's really been more than just home away from home..it was my own haven of privacy and solace; a special place that gave me new talents and knowledge, and most of all, new people i've come to love..

I asked Blackie if she'd come back often, and she said prolly not that much, because things would have changed; it'd just be different. I think so too! I'm feeling a little part of me move on with the FYFs, even tho i'm staying next sem..yet I am so unwilling to leave this part of my life behind..

*sighs* Parting is such bittersweet sorrow.


UPDates soon i promise!

I've a billion and one things to blog about right now, my heart's gushing with all the things I wanna share. But I can't!! Cos I have two hours to finish my reports and head home for bro's send-off dinner--he's gg to Tekong on Monday!! My beloved baby bro. Sighs. Time flies.

Will update after this week, when it is true liberation!! BWHAHAHA ppl w exams..sucks to be u.. nyahnyah.. :P

Teehee. P.s forgive my anal evilness. Sucks to be me now. :S
