Do Women really need Men in their lives?

An English professor wrote the words: A woman without her man is nothing"
on the chalkboard and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.
All of the males in the class wrote: "A woman, without her man, is nothing."
All the females in the class wrote: "A woman: without her, man is nothing."

Punctuation is powerful.

It is indeed.


Well, do women really need men in their lives? I would say to an extend yes. They can be your best friend when you need someone to talk to, to cry on, to get mad at, and also to love. I wouldn't know if it is the same the other way around. I'm a gal. Ha! I bought the 5th season of Sex and the City today @ Westfield. I forgot how is it like to be a single lady out there in this fast pace world of ours. I missed single life but I love this relationship I'm in. *hate this dilemma* Well, I guess we just have to take life as we grow and as we go...

Coldest...Will it eventually snow?
Today is a very cold day. The coldest so far. Yesterday, Stevo msned me saying that it might even snow next week! I would really wana see some snow! It wasn't as cold in the morning compared to the rest of the day. I was freezing when I left the lab after my class. Following that I meet Rachael! She is finally back from her Easter break. I'm envy those who can make it back home for the 2 weeks holis. I miss home. I headed back to my room and then to the mall. On the way back I headed in a store and bought Vegetales DVDs. They are cute! haha..

People have to Calm down these days
Yesterday,she has been going on about not being able to publish her post in the blog...today is the comment script. G! You got to calm down girl. Being gitty and all can't help the situation, only makes things worst. *I should heed my own advice* haha..

Friends I haven't heard in a while
It's nice to know friend from way back in your life still remember that you actually exist. So heart warming. Sunny Oke left a comment in my last post about if I still remember him! OF COURSE! And I got a reply from JiaHui as well! He said I've changed quite a bit! Prettier! *big headed* haha..he is sweet indeed. I miss my secondary school days. It was fun! I remember the mornings when I will be one of the 1st few to reach school. I was that early, even before the school servants. I had to on the canteen lights, looking at how the area will slowly be filled with students. I miss the Chinese and the Malay food! Yummy! It is good memories..But the school has to go. Life...

People from USSS, remember our Annual Gathering? Christmas cum exchange pressie thingy!? Could I be the guest this year and not the host? pleeeaaase...? It not that I'm not having fun being the host, I would wana enjoy being the Guest too! So if anyone could volunteer their place or we can have a night of dinner then heading to the clubs, it would be FUN for a change! hee...

Take Care Everyone!

It has been a eventfully day...*I think*

Thursday, April 29, 2004

ehh..This is to update those who are worry about my 'not so little black pot', its safely back in my kitchen cabinet already. The Indian girl put it back where it's suppose to be...Thanks for your concern! =)

Well well...It's been a feeeew days since I posted anything here...sooo...here goes...

BodyPump
24th of April, I almost killed myself at Vicki's bodypump class! It's the first time I lifted so much weights in my life...Seriously..for the couple of days following that, I thought I tore my muscles, as I wasn't able to straighten my arms or bend them totally. It took me 4-5 days for my muscles to loosen again. It is still aching as I type. And I say that Vicki can outlift any friends of mine I believe..other than Mingsheng, cos he is a Professional Personal trainer..hehhe...But...that session was refeshing and I had a good workout. I feel so strong *giggles* being able to lift a BARBELL for a relatively long period of time...hehe.. I wanted to sign up for the 3 mth membership that cost $105 for UC students or a 10 time pass that cost $65. It's still cheaper to pay per lesson that cost $8... yes yes promoting for UCU Recreation Centre. Had fun in the class too..was there with Charmin, Joel, Wenyang and Ching...I could walk down a flight of stairs properly...hahahahha...soft legs..hehehe

SSA Meeting
Following the bodypump session was another session f another kind, the first SSA meeting this sem. hmm...Surprisingly I'm the Treasurer for the Singapore Student Association! Don't play play...or I might just run off with the $$$..hahaha...na..can never do that, everytime I withdraw or deposit any money, I will need 2 signature to authorize it...troublesome... well its good in a sense that people can't say that I took money for myself. =) NEXT...

Back to School
Eventually we are all back to school, it's the end of the Easter break! *sob* sob* I was late for lecture..by 5 mins. hee. blah blah blah...I did some recording on Wed, Uploaded the rest of the sound onto garageband on thursday after copywriting tutorial. Just when I was burning my files after the long 3hrs I sat in that same seat editing...Shawn's personal SMS tone sounded the lab. Message reading: Construction area at Ayer Rajar caved in... like Daniel posted..last week was Nicole Highway, now this...Poor Little Singapore is SINKING!!! Its very saddening hearing these things happening in my homeland from another land far away...

Ah Tong Graduating! 3 Cheers for her! Hip Hip Hurray!
Hee hee...It's so nice to receive a sms from her that sounded so cheery...needed that. She PASSED her external assessment! YAY! My best galfrend here is Graduating people! Was stressed for her before the internal assessment...she was super down and gloomy. Everything is GREAT now! She's back to her old cheery, chirpy self again... and she loves herself too much now..hehhe..which is also a good thing. Enough of her or she will get to big headed! =P

Dinner
I had potato, hotdogs and rice all in one....hmmm...looks disgusting...hehe..well I don't want it going to waste yea....and i had cabbage too...all of those was dinner last night too.. well was at the lab and didn't feel like cooking...

Crew?
Stevo is trying to convince me into going his crew to go compete in breaking and popping competitions! He must be nuts! I can't even move jerkingly....hmmm.. maybe Elroy is a good choice! haha..jerky dancing! Anyway...I'm not up to it. All of them have breaking background...and I know nuts...I only know the Baby freeze Joleen showed me last sem...

I'm done with today...till then...

HomeSick
Nothing unusually about being homesick for me. I have it everyday, the only difference is how bad.

I miss my 'not so little' pot
Firstly..
Hmm...I think it was today that I couldn't find my pot. My medium size, black pot that Joleen left for me. I missed it.. I wondered where it went. I asked Aidil about it as he was using my stuff these days. He hasn't seen it too. He was sweet enough to help me look for it. Even the lid was gone. I was thinking that it was fate that I had to get a new one. I wanted to have Continental Pasta today, I had to use my huge pan to boil the mixture. Lunch turned out fine, with lots of additional sprinkle of cheese and chilli flakes. *yum*

Night came and I had chips and smiley potatoes for dinner. Had a shower and when I was about to wash my dishes in the curry aroma filled kitchen,it was then I noticed at the corner of my eye, a blurred black thingy on the stove. I recognised it! My POT! But I'm not the one cooking? I don't mind her using my pots and utensils but do put it back yea... But no...She kept it over night...If I'm correct she used it to store her food in the fridge. Well... Not sure to ask her if that is my pot or not... Will be waiting to see if it's in my cabinet tomorrow. I miss my pot.

Nicole Highway
secondly...
Well it started when I heard from Daniel that part of Nicole Highway caved in! Carrying on that, he was saying that Shawn will be busy today. The next moment, my MSN sounded. Qwyn typed "Shawn will be busy today" I was pretty ok then as I know Shawn is on his 2nd day off. So he's not on shift, but Daniel said that he might be called back. hmm... the feeling grew bigger when Qwyn tell me more about the situation that is happening back at home in Singapore. Telling my brother about it too. The funny thing is that I knew about the news before my dear Shawn. hee... I sms him to ask if he needs to go back. It was then that he knew. Next was Jeremy, then Chevelle got the news from Mark. I guess it a little 'scary' to hear such a thing happening. 1st was the 5cm cracks in buildings, now roads are caving in. What's next?! Eventually the whole of Singapore is gonna go in.

Third Watch
Thirdly...
I went on with my day... Tv shows such as CSI, Stingers, and eventually Shawn's favourite show Third Watch. It hit me even more when a guy in the show got burnt and the doctors couldn't give him too much painkillers or it might take his life. He's in so much pain no one can imagine. It was so bad that he ask his partner to end his life.. he did. Their skin will be so badly melted that anyone who try to lift them, their skin peal off like the outer layer of BBQed marshmellow. =(

Well that was mainly my day

Email
Lastly....
Priscilla sent me this email about a guy who's marriage didn't work out and who fell ill. This is part of the email.

Fate is not something meant to be forced upon. What is yours will eventually come to your arms; what is not yours will never come to be.
In any case, we should not lose heart and give up on our hopes for love that is true, good and beautiful.
The value of life, in a certain sense, is determined by the maturity of how we love. Of how we give and accept love.
Treasure what you have... Time is too slow for those who wait; Too swift for those who fear; Too long for those who grief; Too short for those who rejoice;
But for those who love...Time is Eternity!

Well well...It's good to know that in life there are still friends around you that you can count on to tell horrible things that happen in your life.

Shock of the Day
My nose blead today, was feeling that i got mucus in my nose but the moment i blew my nose, there was the eeky red slimy liquid! and it's only in one side of my nose. I freaked a little but it was alright. I mean what were you to expect when you suddenly blew your nose and there was blood?! I guessed it was too much toast and chilli.

I'm not gonna give up chilli !!, that you you people should know about but it's enough off toast for this week. My wholemeal expired today. I was thinking I could make do with eating it on the day it expired buuut....I was wrong! I noticed little green fury thingy on my toast when I spread my Bertolli Light Calestrol Free Olive Oil on~! Believe it or not, I went ahead and ate it...duh..I pinched out the green thingy!

Happy Things
Oh! I helped Shawn with his logo for Wee Yong's new trading company, S.E.A.Fresh. Had fun thinking of different ideas to suit Shawn's expectations of modern look. Finally came up with a piece that I am actually Proud of. I took a while to recreate the splash of the water. At the end of the whole session, I know that I'm done when every inch in my body is screaming for me to rest. As usual the 1st reason is that I'm not sitting properly.. yea yea... I know very well that I ought to! I should change the placement of my laptop! I might! we'll see...hahah

Movies
I have been watching what is considered a higher than average amount of DVDs. Well.. it's the easter break..hee..if you take that as an excuse. Here are some Movies that I thought is good. So the next time you are gonna rent any DVDs or video tapes, do take note of these movies.

French Kiss
First Wifes Club
Hanging Up

I had lotsa fun when I had a sleepover at 1 Dines Place and watch the Frech Kiss and First Wifes Club. Chevelle and I talked our hearts out. Having both of our boyfriends away, her's is on his way around US following the baseball league, and mine is currently or is it considered permently away, back home in sunny and humid Singapore.

Another Happy thing
Well..Shawn booked his flight to Brisbane already! That is a very good thing. buuutt.... He still can't confirm that he is able to make it to the land of kangeroos and kaolas because if he were to have courses within that period of time, he got to stay in SGP. SO! I'm crossing my fingers.

Well this is today.
