happy CNY eve to everyone!

I don't feel that the new year is coming this year! seems like I can in the festive mood only when I'm working. hahas. I didn't get to see any new year banners around NTU. Perhaps I would spot them maybe if I stay in hall.

simwan was right. she can't imagine life after CNY. me too. so many assignments, presentations and quizzes. from the look of things, life seems to be worse than last semester. Sometimes I wish the tutors would set the assignment questions earlier so that we won't have to rush thru all the deadlines. haiz.

I can't stand someone's sacarstic tone on me. i shall not waste my energy scolding her, especially during the prosperous new year. jus hope that more and more people would see the true side of her soon. heh.

v day was just like any other day for me. went back to visit my old company. found out about something shocking. and that makes me feel that life is so unpredictable. prayed at the guan yin temple in Bugis.

i was quite touched by the chocs my frens gave me. felt so like friendship day. hahas. val even gave me a daisy, which i felt so paiseh carrying around.

the best thing was that wang wang had queued for the cao ge concert and it just happened that she had 2 extra tickets. and she gave them to me..... arghhhhhh.... and I want to thank her for listening to all my stupid stories, and accompanying me for lunch. seems like we would always make a joke of ourselves when we are together. lol.

the 2 quizzes were quite a cheat. we were allowed to discuss our ans openly. hahas. but that also showed I didn't absorb much no matter how hard I studied.

I've done nothing much. and I am tired.

I've more free time than others. and I am actually tired.

I've much much less commitments than others. and I am actually tired.

What the hell have I been doing with my life?!

siyao, seriously I hope you come to NTU. I need more joy in my life. and I promise I won't bully you. :D

Peini once mentioned that its important to set her priorities straight (If I didn't remember wrongly hee)

I didn't realize that that phrase is the solution to the root of my problems till today. Once I set my priorities, decisions are so much easier to make. You feel that you're making a "righter" decision too. I suffered less duress because of this. heh. Sometimes, I wonder why I am so greedy. Why do I tie myself to so many stuff when I can't handle it obviously? Why do I think about things that I shouldn't be worrying, or thinking about?

Guan guan, I hope our agony is going to be over soon! and I still feel bad about the trip :(

Anyway, I went to visit Chinatown last weekend! I felt that the new year festive spirit was really there... there were hordes and hordes of people all around! The queues were also quite horrendous. You can see long queues outside Lim Chee Guan but not the other ba gua shops. hahas... I think all the squeezing and pushing made me super giddy :( 1 good point about the fair was that you get free samples!
My brother intro-ed us to this famous porridge stall in Tiong Seng eating house. The stall's called Chang Cheng zhou sth.... the aroma of the sauce and porridge was there when we approached the eating house. Too bad the looooong queue was a deterrent :( Almost everyone in the eating house was having tian ji porridge. And that's to consider that the porridge stall is not the only stall in the eating house! hahas. I shall really have to go and try it one day. I realized that there are other food stalls around Chinatown too. The food all looked so delicious! *drools* And I had my favourite zhong zhong wu xiang at food street. woohoo.

some pictures to share with everyone. found that interesting. somehow I guess you don't often see such stuff around in singapore anymore...

First picture's a stage for those old dramas that you used to see on the streets in the past. In this case, they weren't having real hua dans but puppet ones.

For the 2nd picture, a man was saw-ing a pig at a la chang stall. I was damn amazed by it. Now I know how the la chang I ate came about. hahas.
