好可怕... Monday, January 29, 2007 9:52 PM i'm beginning to wonder if 2007 is a good year for the entertainment industry as it seems to be clouded by deaths of artists...
first the death of korean singer, u;nee..
she hang herself at her apt on 21 January 2007, a couple of days before the released of her 3rd album.. the trigger of the suicide: depression (suspected).. her grandmother found her hanging from a door frame after returning home from church service.. the next one happened ytd (28 January 2007), taiwanese actress 许玮伦, died in the hospital from a serious car accident on the 26th.. i can only remember her from 《青春六人行》and 《18岁的约定》.. think there's a bit too much on deaths of artist (be it suicidal or accident)... hope everything goes well for the rest of the year.. => =================== slight note: the "war" has ended, but the problem remains unsolved... guess i don't have much a choice but to leave it aside for the time being....
new skin Saturday, January 20, 2007 3:54 PM changed the blog skin to make myself happier...
yeah rite...
it's tearing apart... Tuesday, January 16, 2007 9:11 PM for 21 years and couple of months, i've thought that i'm strong emotionally to withstand so many things in my life...
i guess i'm just deceiving myself.. i can no longer differentiate between wat is logical to do and wat is right to do... worst is i dunno who to turn to... there's things which i am not even sure who to tell.. coz i dunno whether it can be told to others... now i'm doubting myself... y do i work so hard for? wat does taking up a degree means to me? things that i've tried my best in obtaining became rubbish in that split second.. family means nothing to me now...
this make me feel super old Saturday, January 06, 2007 4:16 PM Copied this from one of the blog:
Fond memories For those who born in the 70s and 80s. 1. You grew up watching He-man, MASK, Transformers, Silver Hawk and Mickey Mouse. Not to forget, Ninja turtles, My Little Pony and Smurfs too. 2. You grew up brushing your teeth with a mug in Primary school during recess time. You will squat by a drain with all your classmates beside you, and brush your teeth with a coloured mug. The teachers said you must brush each side 10 times too. 3. You know what SBC stands for. 4. You pay 40 cents for Chocolate or Strawberry MILK every week in class. 5. You watch a very popular Malay dubbed Japanese drama on RTM1 about schoolgirls who possess powerful skills in volleyball called Meoro Attack. 6. You find your friends with pagers and handphone cool in Secondary school. 7. SBS buses used to be non-airconditioned. The bus seats are made of wood and the cushion is red. The big red bell gives a loud BEEP!when pressed. There are colourful tickets forTIBS buses. The conductor will check for tickets by using a machine which punches a hole in the ticket. 8. Envelopes given to us to donate to Sharity Elephant every Children's Day. 9. You've probably read Young Generation magazine.You know who's Vinny the little vampire and Acai the constable. 10. You were there when they first introduced MRT here. You went for the first ride with your parents and you would kneel on the seat to see the scenery. 11. Movie tickets used to cost only $3.50. &@%#$*@#$^*!@#&^$ 12. Gals are fascinated by Strawberry Short Cake and Barbie Dolls. 13. You learn to laugh like The Count in Sesame Street. 14. You longed to buy tibits called Kaka (20 cents per pack), and Ding Dang (50 cents per box), that had a toy in it and it changesevery week not forgetting the 15 cents animal crackers and the ring pop, where the lollipop is the diamond on the ring. 15. You watched TV2 (also known as Channel 10) cartoons because Channel 5 never had enough cartoons for you. 16. Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, The Three Investigators, Famous Five and Secret Seven are probably the thickest story books you ever thought you have read. Even Sweet Valley High and Malory Towers. 17. KFC used to be a high class restaurant that serve food in plates and let you use metal forks and knives. 18. The most vulgar thing you said was asshole and idiot and THE MOST EXTREME WAS 'super white'...you just couldn't bring yourself to say the hokkien relative. 19. Catching was the IN thing and twist as the magic word. 20. Your English workbooks was made of some damn poor quality paper that was smooth and yellow. 21. CDIS were your bestfriend 22. The only computer lessons in school involved funny pixellised characters in 16 colours walking about trying to teach you maths. 23. Waterbottles were slinged around your neck and a must everywhere you go. 24. Boys loved to play soccer with small plastic balls in the basketball court. 25. Teng-teng, five stones, chapteh, hentam bola and zero point were all the rage with the girls and boys too... 26. Science was fun with the balsam and the angsana being the most important plants of our lives, guppies and swordtail being the most important fish. 27. Who can forget Ahmad, Bala, Sumei andJohn, eternalized in our min ds from the textbooks. Even Mr Wally & Mr. Yakki. What abt Miss Lala??? And Zaki and Tini in Malay Textbooks 28. We carry out experiments of our own to get yourself badges for being a Young Zoologist/Botanist etc. 29. Every Children's day and National day you either get pins or pens with 'Happy Children's Day 1993' or dumb files with 'Happy National Day 1994'. 30. In Primary six you had to play buddy for the younger kids like big sister and brother. 31. We wear BM2000, BATA, or Pallas shoes. 32. Your form teacher taught you Maths, Science and English. 33. The worksheets were made of brown rough paper of poor quality. 34. You went to school in slippers and a raincoat when it rained, and you find a dry spot in the school to sit down, dry your feet, and wear your dry and warm socks and shoes. 35. School dismissal time was normally around 1 pm. 36. There would be spelling tests and mental sums to do almost everyday. 37. Your friends considered you lucky and rich if your parents gave you $3 or more for pocket money everyday. 38. You see Wee Kim Wee's face in the school hall. 39. You freak out when the teacher tells you to line up according to height and hold hands with the corresponding boy or girl 40. Boys like to catch fighting spiders. 41. Collecting and battling erasers was a pastime for boys. 42. Autograph books were loaded with "Best Wishes", "Forget Me Not", and small poems like "Bird fly high, hard to catch. Friend like you, hard to forget". 43. Class monitors and prefects loved to say "You talk somemore, I write your name ah!" 44. There were at least 40 people in one class. 45. Large, colourful schoolbags were carried. 46. You brought every single book to school, even though there was one thing called the timetable. For those who are born in those days... remember the good old days? For those who arent.... know what u missed out..?I'm trying to find out what about the Gen Y kids. What do they do?Anyways, does/can the present be exchangable for the past? U decide.
the year of 2007 1:36 PM 2007 is here and that implies lots of things.. of course the most important and listed at the top of my list is exams are coming in a few months and i've yet to do any revisions...
looking back to 2006 seems like a super not meaningful year.. 2006 is spent on summary 2 main things: 1)worked in ibm for the first half of the year, of which the last 2 months i've to juggled between work and my bridging courses 3-4 times a week.. in the end i quit the job bcoz i realised i'm draining myself out.. 2)started my BSc degree in Banking and Finance in SIM, this start marks the end of my "rotting" hours.. my 2006 is such a dry and boring one although i've perceived that 2007 will not be any better especially with the arrival of exams in May... however, i've made certain changes to myself in 2006.. i'm getting more n more INTO nice and good food/cuisines.. i've permed my hair to get rid of the super duper untidy curls and instead get more organized and tidy curls... i've come up with a mini summary book of records for my daily expenditure and transportation to remind myself that i'm always over-spending (although i'm still spending too much till now.. haha) of coz my obsession for colours in my notes have not changed instead it got worst.. for 2007 i will not set any resolutions bcoz i know i will not fulfill them.. so in 2007 i only wish that i can put in more effort in everything i do and be more determined in doing stuff... => |
