My dear little niece Stariel became a child of God just last week.
:D..
little angel...
Stariel and Daddy
Father Chris pouring holy water on her forehead.
Stariel and Mummy..
The little one giving one of her very rare smiles.. :)
Jesus said "Let the children come to me. For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to these little ones"
Bless you baby Stariel.. :)
$88...
might seem quite a big amount of money to spend on something, especially for a student like myself.
$88...
you can use that as a week's pocket money, or buy a new wallet/bag, or go to some fancy restaurant to have a sumptuous meal.
But for me,
and many others
This was perhaps the biggest and most worth buy of our lives. To see our heroes step onto our soil and gave a wonderful performance, really just inspires us all the more. To see them in action, in the flesh of their bodies was just..indescribable...that's about the only word that would suit our feelings as we saw Torres, Kuyt, Benayoun, Alonso, Riera, Reina, Carragher, Agger and many of the other Liverpool players yesterday at the National Stadium.
will update soon...coz now ill have to sink back into the real world of projects and deadlines.
but I am not alone~
I finally went for an operation that was way over due. And that was to remove my ingrown toenail (left foot, big toe).
And I would say that it was much better than the last time, as 2 years ago, even though local anesthetic (LA) was administered, it still hurt like hell when the doctor just yanked it out of my toe.
This time however, they just cut up the sides.....
and then...put some VERY highly alkaline solution to burn my toenail matrix at the sides, to ensure it won't grow to the side again.success rate is only 92% though...let's pray it won't get infected once again. *crosses fingers*
At least this time I did not really feel anything when they did the whole surgical procedure, which lasted around 20 min.
and MC FOR THE WHOLE WEEK! WOOOT!!!
gladly, i can say that I can stay at home to chiong my school projects, most of which are due within this week and next monday.
oh who the hell am I kidding, there's always dota and Blackshot to keep me distracted for the next 3 days or so anyway, and of course catching up on my sleep.
zzz
Lots of stuff have been happening lately...to say the least, projects are due...
friends falling sick, with new responsibilities thrust onto my shoulders....I seriously do not know what to make of all this...
Although it can get worse, I shall remain optimistic, coz I know that all this shall come to pass.
and things will pick up...
keep smiling. :)
Just one of those days when you just had one, single negative event to spoil your whole day.
Take for example, you just boarded a certain bus 15 and you are on your way to Temasek Poly, taking a much-needed nap in the bus in the duration of the journey.
All of a sudden, you see something pretty rare, 2 bus captains board the bus and they begin their usual round of checking the ez-link cards of the commuters.
Coming to you, they scan your card twice and inform you that you did not tap your card. You reply "I used cash to pay"
Surrendering your ticket, they check it and they say:"Under the Public Transport Act, you have committed an offence of underpaying a fare ticket, and you are subject to $20 penalty"
You stare in disbelief as this has not happened before. You took comfort in the fact that the bus driver always lets you through when you slot in a dollar coin. Nothing more.
Infuriated and frustrated, you reluctantly hand in two 10 dollar notes, therefore depriving you of 2 day's allowance.
As if that was not bad enough, they DO NOT CHECK THE OTHER COMMUTERS, and the bus just so happens to pass by a bus stop, with a guy's t-shirt proclaiming ever so conspicuously "TODAY IS MY LUCKY DAY"
can someone tell me how to post on FMyLife?
IT WAS AWESOME SHIT!
and thankfully much better than last year's.
All of us there were treated to a spectecular afternoon of tire-burning, adralenine-rushing drifting by drivers from the asia pacific region...
despite the rain, the competition still carried on throughout.
side note: Finally com's up. got rid of the stupid decade old one, and i can say that my house is moving on to the 21 st century, as it should rightly have 10 years ago.
Anyways, invited the usual group of us to go food tasting at Buzzing Cashier. (in hanyu pinyin, Qiang3 Tan1 Da4 Xing2 Dong4) Its the one where hosts Kym Ng and Quan Yi Feng source out hawkers in Singapore who are not doing so well and they hire chefs (not some lousy young upstarts, but those of the real deal. Think Sam Leong standards) to improve the recipes of their respective dishes so they can do better.
In one segment of the show, 30 guests (ala, us) are invited to taste the food to see if it is good enough to satisfy our tastebuds, and afterwhich we would place the bowl/plate either on top of the table (to show our approval) or to a pail (dislike)
carrot cake was not bad, since it was handmade.
will post more photos when photobucket resumes to normal

As many might have known, The Reds are hitting Singapore on the 26th of July, and it is practically the obligation of every Liverpool Fan to go buy tickets to see them live and kicking at our National Stadium as they go against our national team.
We all know who's gonna lose so I shall not say much. :X
Tickets are selling damn fast, and I am still trying to raise the $88 so i can squeeze in with many other fans...
sigh...
and ironically, today's APEL lesson talked about what would we do if we had $10 million...
go figure __
one way or another, i have to get one...
beg borrow steal...i don't care
I just attended a fully sold out concert at the Esplenade today....
can i say...it was just THE BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!
The music of the great composer Nobuo Uematsu was just works of a genius...and what's more, he graced us with his presence during the concert. At the intro part of the programme, when the spotlight shown on him, there was an instant standing ovation and many shouts of rejoice...it was really a treat for everyone who were present...
The music..what can I say.....So many Final Fantasy songs inside...Some of the more memorable ones were "To Zanarkand", "Fisherman's Horizon", "Aerith's Theme". Just when i thought the concert was not to be completed after their 1st encore piece, Nobuo Uematsu-sama cheekily joined in the choir for the ultimate and epic piece: " One-Winged Angel" That piece made me and my friend's day. We were just simply awed at the wonder of the pieces and the melodious sounds that the Singapore Festival Orchestra managed to produce. They certainly did justice to his works.
After the concert, there was a dialogue session in which we could ask him questions. We all had to file out of the hall 1st, then enter it by another door...we somehow managed to jump queue, and we all seated for a short 15 min to listen to some of the answers Uematsu-sama replied to questions like "Are the music pieces you produce a reflection of your life?" "What are some projects you are working on?" etc etc...it was a dream come true for all Final Fantasy fans, to see the composer of the game's music so near a distance and personal.'
All I can say is that, Nobuo Uematsu-sama is definitely a great composer, together with the likes of Yoko Shimomura (Composer of Kingdom Hearts' music) and many of the other composers that have come to pass. And this was certainly one night to remember, as we watched how the fantasies of games we had, come alive this very day.
After the b'dae celebration, (see previous post) I rushed all the way down to Zion Road, Siang Hee Restaurant where the crew people would be filming Leslie and some makankakis (me included) for a food show series that is to be released somewhere around the end of the year.
Managed to secure i think a few seconds interview (after editing and everything)...XD XD!!!! Feel pretty excited to see my face on TV for the 1st time.
anyways, more pics that i took.
I am just simply amazed at how strong our class spirit is. 4 weeks into school, and we already had an outing at Seoul Garden, a night cycling and now a birthday celebration for Sze Ping who turned 17 on the 22nd.
Most of us skipped lecture for RHT, and we met at the Sports Complex at around 12pm, waited for half an hour before the b'dae girl arrived. Song was sang, cake was cut (very visually pleasing cake btw) and all of us just sat around talking and eating. Me as the undeclared class cameraman of course, had to do his work 1st..:P
