September hasn't has enuff of me

Juz when u tot things aint gonna go any worse than wat has already happend, they do! my laptop's hinge broke! this means my lcd screen is sitting fragilely on 1 hinge on one side... i guess that means repair, at a time where i need my laptop 24/7 for school project, $$$ for my overdue bill, skoo fees.... then my GP rechargeable batteries gone dead as well; no matter how long how much i charge my digicam still says "replace batteries :)"...and a walk thru the ENTIRE bukit panjang plaza and NOT a single shop sells rechargeable batteries. hmph! wait. or isit my camera that is spoilt????

Is there any twist in this ever-lasting struggle between me and september?? will I triumph over the many disasters that september has thrown at me and be victorious? stay tuned and find out in the concluding "episode" of me and september!!!! Oh september i hate u !!! > _ <

kakk kuey = luffa = 水瓜

My ah-ma used to make this dish for me when i was like dunno 3-4yrs old?? hmm. I can never remember wat the veg inside was, except that i know it's very soft, has edible seeds and tastes sweet...

Asked my mom if she remembered wat it was that ah-ma cooked, she said: "ohh, it's kakk kuey la!" But somehow i remembered it as "kang kuey". As i tried to explain this veg to my frens, it seemed that none of them knows exactly wat it is... "cooked with egg and prawn one, soft soft one, got seed one", but most of the thinks its "kou kuey" (bitter gourd)

Recently Jimmy got fed up with the suspense (haha) and so we got to the supermarket to check it out (we must be siao liao ^_^;). i think after seeing the shape of the veg no one believed that the veg is soft, haha. luckily i saw it when my mom brought it home one day, else till today i'll still be perplexed by the shape o_O. Its called luffa! what veg on earth gets to have a girly name like dat?? maybe its like some ger; hard and bashful on the outside, soft and gentle on the inside? (oh my god i sound like some hentai :P)

Then from the internet, i finally found out that its chinese name is called 水瓜. no. not jui kuei. haha. So if you are reading this crap, maybe u oso finally know what the hell that soft, sweet veggie "always cooked with prawn and egg one" is.

Oh september. havent u have enuff.

I have a lot on my mind recently. when i have a lot on my mind, they become japanese. sorrie ppl.

やっはり九月のこと大嫌い。まったく。毎日犬のような忙しいし、金も足りなくなったんだ。最近、母の商売のために、半分の貯金があげた。でも、自分の学費もすぐ払わなきゃならないことが忘れちゃって、まったく...　結局、いくらいやでも借りなきゃならなくなった。畜生。

もしこの九月はなにが良い事があれば、その子のことしかいなかっただろう。実は、最近その子とよくメーセージしちゃって、俺は...嬉しいかも？女の子といろなことを喋るのは一体何年ぶりかな...

いつのまに、その子は俺にとって特別な存在になったか？その子は、いつもいつも自分のことより、他の人のことを心配したんだ。まったく。いつも俺に「いつか、いい女の子に紹介しょう！」って...なんで自分の幸せのこと考えたくないんだろう？俺の言えない気持ち、君はもう気がついたのか...

いつか君も運命の人と会って、幸せになりますように...

男人不坏，女人不愛

This topic recently came up amongst my frens... 男人不坏，女人不愛. i think its quite true, given the no. of cases i've heard/encountered...

I once had a fren (J) who was going after this ger (Y), who was very sweet (the ger), frenly and chatty. problem is, this ger already had a boyfren, but this boyfren (Elvis, dun ask why) isn't treating this ger well. As things ain't going well between Y and Elvis, Y soon falls for J... but Y couldn't bear to leave Elvis, and didn't want to hurt J. so it dragged on.... till the point where Elvis finally "awoken" and realized J's presence and wat he was going to lose, so asked for Y's forgiveness blah blah. Y, even after being treated badly by Elvis, even after being treated well by J, still decided in the very end to accept Elvis and declined J..... well, since then, it seemed that Elvis and Y had gotten married or something, and J.... oh well.

There's oso another fren of mine. this one, whenever in a relationship, is always treated like trash by those bastards. problem is, she somehow still feels for these idiots. She's a very nice and likeable ger, so there have been many guys, some of which i think will treat her well, that have asked to go steady with her... but i dunno if its phobia or wat, she hasn't accepted their feelings... i really hope she can forget those bastards, and let some good guy cherish her instead.

so is it really that 男人不坏，女人不愛? I really feel sad for my "good" guy frens who always get involved in kind of relationships, and feel sad as well for my gal frens who have been badly treated by those bastards, yet cannot forget them? i think i must be a little bothered by this, thus so much blog today... sorrie!

Crazy fish

I got a luo-han at home. actually it's more than juz a luo-han. this luo-han is a bit funny. first of all, it twists the air tube around. I've always adjusted the air tube such that it contours around the tank, but whenever i got home, the tube will be all over the place. hmm. thats no big deal rite. Except that not only does the luo-han twist the tube around, it creates patterns with the tube. Once, it tied a knot with the tube. *Not* kidding. it has no hands, so how the hell does it do so?

And it has a mood. Whenever the water hasn't been changed for some time, it becomes latargic. it drops to the corner of the tank, and it flips over like a dead fish. it lies down on its side, not moving for up to 10hrs. At first we tot it died, but when we tried to scoop it with a net, it swam away to another corner, lying down on its side again. recently it prefers to stick itself *vertically* between the tank wall and the filter.

Then, recently, i've also noticed my goldfish trying to stick itself between the filter and the tank wall too. hmm. the goldfish and luo-han tanks are far away from one another, so are they communicating by radio waves?? Crazy fish... Wait... or is it me that's hallucinating?

$$ is an evil thing

$$ is a really evil thing... i remember last time i lent some $1k to my fren, and afta 2 months i asked: "when can you return me?", i only got "i got no $$ now la, i try to return you next month" and another 2 months passed, then he returned me $500... and then i tried another 2 months later, and another month passed b4 i got another $250. and then i dunno how long later i got back $200... that makes $50 left. since around 2years ago.

so recently i got to meet up with my fren again, who helped me to buy an mp3 player from the comex it show thingie. i guessed he still remembered that theres $50 left over from the last time, so he said i pay him $200 for the mp3 player can oready ($279 is the actual price).

within a few days, he asked me "when can you return me the $200". so i said "bz recently so i forgot"... then within a week i got a frenly reminder again... which i immediately transferred the $$ over, in case more reminders no so frenly come along...

i guess when it comes to $$, ppl can only see their side of the story huh... so even Jimmy said i can "borrow from us 1st la if you 'liong'...", i still wun wan to do so, cos $$ can turn the best of frens into enemies with grudges, no matter no close you were...

A bit off my shoulders

Woohoo, i've done the work for both the wedding flash presentation as well as the ancient project for the unpaying client. So no more worries from the outside world for now. haha.

Watched HERBIE: Fully loaded with Jimmy n Crystal ytd. Dun watch it if you are not a Herbie or Lindsay Lohan fan, dun know anything about the 70's Herbie shows, dun like volkswagen beetles, dun like simple unwacky humour which tickles children (mostly) and dun like simple happy endings. I happen to like all the above, so i enjoyed the show, but Jimmy tot it was haha crappy. Crystal liked it as well, so something must be wrong with Jimmy haha... Guess in times of stress, i prefer to watch something simple and dun require me to work out details.

Before the show we were buying mooncakes at the foyer, and the cashier did look a little familiar... haha it was wilson's gerfren meixuan! And wilson even called me to say why i din say anything to her. paiseh meixuan, din see ya for a long long time liao, so kun recognize you... u must have gotten prettier rite ;)

so now i feel a little better. with only skoo projects. speaking of projects. My statistics module oso have a project, in which Derek and Willie and me have been made to form a team with 2 other gers. One of them was alright and quite cooperative, but damn the other one la!!! She has some kind of attitude problem, and she kept showing a black face to us! Hey, we may not be some boyband characters, but did we do something to piss you off??? Came late for the meeting, and refused to meet at our faculty's block. wat is up with this princess?

okok. i'm not gonna let one crazy ger ruin my mood. I hope that it's juz that "ger's time of the month" and we can get to work better...

Hell 'o' September

i used to like september back in my sec skoo days, cos the ger i like birthday in that mon. well since i kanna rejected and a sequence of other unhappy events in the septembers there after, i dun like it anymore :(

1st my skoo life... sux. i'm taking 2x japanese language modules and thats 14 hrs/week. tough when you accompany that will my final year project, and a statistics module. speaking of project. i'm really impressed with java's j2ee and its java server faces combo. I've always been a .net fan, but after working with netbeans ide to develop ejb, together with the studio creator ide for jsf, i was blown away. just ask shunjie and my team members, or any other project team and they will all agree on this: "write once, crash everywhere".

my outside life... sux. i had to do a flash presentation for my fren's sis's wedding and i running out of time to complete it, with all the skoo work and all. i really wan to give up, but since i promised to deliver, at least i wanna get it done, even if it ain't top notch work. but i simply dun have time to make changes, add animations and fancy stuff. then i oso have to do an update for another fren on a ancient project, whose client is still ripping us off with more work and no $$. haiz. i guess wat my fren jimmy said is true: i gotta learn how to say no to requests, and prioritize my.. er.. priorities.

i've finally gotten my passport done after 10yrs of expiry, haha. maybe its time for me to run off to some faraway island to hide a while...
