Still haven't figured out what my animal is...

I think this was tuna. Who did this?

Zijuan's T-Rex. I so crever.

Mingkun's buddha. Cough cough.

Xueli washing her hands. For those of you who are not allowed in the girls' toilet, she holds her wallet in her mouth. Because saliva is more sterile than water, apparently. :S

Our early morning entertainment before HR lesson... :S

Ok, that's all folks, I think I've emptied out all my photos already. :) All the best for those of you who still have papers, and see you on Thursday!!! :) :) :)

YABBA DABBA DOO

2005-11-28T22:00:00.000+08:00

Exams are finally over!!! :)

Here are some interesting shots from the sem that I found in my phone... :D

***

Xueli: "Eh look, my Hidamari lost a leg!"

Mei Ling: "Aiyoh, so poor thing! Now only left one leg!"

Xueli: "Yah lor, I think it'll be better off WITHOUT ANY LEGS!"

Mei Ling: "..."

***

Spotted on our way to take the CN4119 exam...

Hongwei: "HAHAHA is that Rangaiah's car?!?!"

Mei Ling: "..."

***

Tallie and ~~Shortie~~ Not-so-Tallie

***

And finally, um, I don't know why this is in my phone. Did I take this? :

something pretty

2005-11-26T22:06:00.000+08:00

Just in case my sister complains that there's an ugly photo of my disgusting jeans when you load the page.. :)

smelly

2005-11-26T21:53:00.000+08:00

So today was last paper day.. and guess what happened just before the paper?

Yup, my jeans.. the pair i was wearing.. and this happened as i was on my way to my paper, just before my paper..

What do you think it looks like? Sure looks like puke to me..
Anyway it's CURRY.. SMELLY CURRY because i think it had gone bad. it was disgusting, to say the very least..

And don't ask me how it happened.. :S

Anyway i managed to borrow a pair of pants (that were a bit too baggy for me..) from someone who stayed in hall.. complete stranger but we are friends now.. :D

Xueli commented: I don't know what I'll do if it happened to me..

So yeah.. last day of exams for me.. but i think i was more relieved that i could finally go home and wash my jeans.. smelly smelly curry.. no roti prata for me for a while..

House

2005-11-25T15:37:00.000+08:00

my sis was complaining that the picture of the bruise is disgusting. So i decided to replace it with something much better looking :) *yummy*

Ouch

2005-10-20T22:43:00.000+08:00

My bruise, with a 10-cent coin for scale.

And yes, my stab wound.

My leg hates me now. :(

And thank you all for laughing very loudly!!!

2005-09-27T01:36:00.000+08:00

YUM! Photos are up! :) Start here and keep clicking on NEXT to see the progress. Oops, I don't seem to have pictures of the actual dough moulding step. :p

But it's really very easy to make, although I would like to try Zijuan's suggestion of making multi-coloured balls next time!!! :) SHALL WE, SHALL WE??? :) :) :)

mei ling's chicken rice

2005-09-25T00:11:00.000+08:00

anything wrong?

走马看花

2005-09-04T17:55:00.000+08:00

New Toys 'R' Us store opened at Suntec today. Some things they have :)

i honestly didn't know that i only took pictures of 马 and 花 when i said 走马看花. I only thought of the "my little pony" pictures... :D

while waiting for CORS

2005-08-17T18:10:00.000+08:00

still remember our favourite superhero?

fastest fingers first

jigsaw puzzles.. try the swirl or the crazy bits.. time passes much faster :)

You are what you wear

2005-08-05T23:53:00.000+08:00

Zijuan and I were at the OSA, where this was on full display:

Trying to discourage students from dressing sloppily I guess. On closer inspection, however, we found that the MODEL STUDENT that they used is none other than...

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They couldn't find an actual student to set an example, so they had to find AARON KWOK?! And please lah, where got people dress like that come to school?!

Your clothes say a lot about yourself?! Yah okay lor, Aaron Kwok's clothes says that he's a dumbass for wearing a suit (to school!) in Singaporean weather.

photo update: tree top walk

2005-08-02T23:55:00.000+08:00

tree top walk (that almost was) photos here

photo update - class chalet

2005-07-30T11:10:00.000+08:00

Photos for chalet and dinner can be found here. Enjoy!!

Money back

2005-06-29T18:16:00.000+08:00

Bwahahahaha! Look what Zijuan found in her ba chuo mee today!

A $1-coin!!!

The most amazing thing is that she took it out, cleaned it, then went on eating. I think Xueli would've fainted if she was there. ;)

Tap and go

2005-06-24T15:36:00.000+08:00

Now you can use your spanking new hybrid card to tappity tap tap. They still have the old machine beside it if you prefer to cha1 your card though.

That's a lab coat meh?!

2005-06-20T23:28:00.000+08:00

Yah right, lab coat my ass lor. My lab coat definitely doesn't look like that. Still put a tick beside it.

Refrigerator adventures

2005-06-19T00:18:00.000+08:00

Remember the fridge that I mentioned the other time? Anyway, the other day I was feeling bored ~~and hopeful~~, so I opened it, only to find this:

At first glance, I thought it was a foetus lor! And in a beaker some more! EWWW! Plus, it really STANK. Anyway, I was feeling brave, so I took a closer look...

... And found that it's DURIAN!!! It must've been there for a loooong time, because it's really really very smelly. I almost threw up.

Afterwards, I found a new sign on the door of the refrigerator that wasn't there before.

So the fridge in the lab is no longer used to store chemicals, but to store stale fruit?! IN BEAKERS?! I don't get it... Sigh. :(

Food glorious food! :p

2005-06-07T16:15:00.000+08:00

The canteen underwent a makeover...

... And now we have new stalls too! There's a Japanese stall (YAY!!!) and an Indonesian stall (Tom Yam for Aiye?? Er, is Tom Yam Indonesian?). :)

Wear your what?

2005-05-30T03:24:00.000+08:00

Taken outside Hongwei's lab. Safety GLASS indeed. =
(This has been in my phone for a while, but I keep forgetting to post it.)

renovations around school

2005-05-23T06:59:00.000+08:00

Here's the lab.. looks good eh?

this is the along the walkway from canteen to e4 just outside lt6. I don't remember this sign, or walking into the staircase for that matter..

JI adventures

2005-05-18T22:57:00.000+08:00

I wanted to post a picture of ICES -- yes, INSIDE Jurong Island -- but I don't know whether that is allowed. At the police checkpoint today, because we were lugging in huge boxes of equipment, they asked what was inside. No, actually, specifically, they asked: "Any cameras?" No. "Okay, you can go." If I post pictures, will they confiscate my phone?

I don't get it. Only cameras are banned from JI? So bombs can bring?

I got to see Jansen for like five seconds before I had to run off, hur hur, sorry Jansen. But what's even more exciting is that I got to eat cake! :) I thought one year anniversary -- ICES so young -- but it was their one year anniversary since moving to Jurong Island. I bet it's just an excuse to have buffet lunch right?

Who else is on Jurong Island, and who else is in ICES (apart from Mr & Mrs Jansen, and Jingze)? :p I will be there at least for Thursday and Friday, but dunno if have time for lunch. :( Wah this is so fun. Island leh. So exotic! So lomantik!

new computer lab

2005-05-14T01:08:00.000+08:00

The new computer cluster.. i'll try to get nicer photos but already got people there and i don't want to appear.. sua ku :P

05-May-2005

2005-05-05T12:59:00.000+08:00

yay! done with exams. now on to RP... hmm...

bored

2005-04-26T14:23:00.000+08:00

just had my finance paper. refuse to study for my next (boring) paper. so i did this :|

exams!

2005-04-22T00:01:00.000+08:00

Today's the official start of the exams.. All the best to everyone!!

i'm quite excited for my papers.. one on the 26th and one on the 5th..
if any of you on IA are free can call me to tan2 tian1.. free-incoming all day :P

God bless!!

Genki!

2005-04-14T20:26:00.000+08:00

Wow it's been a long time since we've eaten at Genki. First time this sem! :)

Everyone says HI!

For some reason, Zijuan decided that she will no longer ask for "hot water." She kept going: "Can I have some HOT?!" which is, frankly, very ~~suggestive~~ misleading.

She was also appalled by the... discrimination.

I asked Hongwei to pose nicely for me and this is what I got... (!!!)

And we had a special visit from Jansen! (Only because your girlfriend had driving test that's why you have time for us right?!) Check out his new *AHEM* chain around his neck. Next time you see him, check out what's inscribed on the pendant! ;)

Jansen: "Don't need to study lah!" Sun3 you3.

See you guys after exams! :)

Enjoy your weekend! :)

2005-04-07T16:20:00.000+08:00

Shopping for fish with Hongwei (again). This time with tips some more: "This part must be red then the fish is fresh!"

And did anyone know that there is a new ROTIBOY at Clementi?! It sells VERY YUMMY coffee bread! Near 7-11. YAY! :)

Another wasted trip

2005-04-06T10:00:00.000+08:00

Came to school for lab at 9 AM, only to find that equipment has been sent for modifications. And today, of ALL days, I didn't bring anything to study. So I am here at the library, taking photo so you can see what I am seeing at the library. Sigh. Looks like I'll be heading home soon. =|

happy april fool's!

2005-04-01T15:44:00.000+08:00

The French call 1st April "Poisson d'Avril", which literally means "Fish of April" :)

On this day, they(i hope they means young kids) go around pasting pictures of fish on the backs of other people.

At least this is what i think my french tutor told me...

Freebies!

2005-03-28T21:52:00.000+08:00

And Dragonb-- er, I mean, our favourite action hero was queueing behind us... Zijuan has the photos! :p

Welfare giveaway!

2005-03-24T16:52:00.000+08:00

Pressed the wrong button at the vending machine and ended up with a Qoo! It looks too much like green tea, okay?!

Guess what's wrong with this picture?

Yep, Hongwei did it again... Dunno why he needs two forks... :p

Welfare giveaway this Monday! Wonder why they never e-mail us about it. Or did I delete it too quickly? Did anyone get this e-mail?? Anyways, I think it's quite nice! Those who are in school, want to go get on Monday?? Hongwei doesn't want to go to school on Monday, hur hur.

~~(This reminds me of when we collected the Engin towel... which I have since misplaced. Xueli: "I'm from Engin! I not stupeeeed!" Everyone: "...")~~ Sorry, covalent.

Me: "I want the green one!"

Hongwei: "I want ANY ONE BUT THE GREEN ONE!"

Me: "..."

But I think they all look quite nice lah. (But the green one is nicest.)

Have a nice long weekend, everyone! :)

centennial mug

2005-03-24T12:31:00.000+08:00

the mug and the personalised message. hurry! collect yours today
woo.hoo.

Monday blue(s) car

2005-03-21T21:23:00.000+08:00

Parallax error: I was trying to circle the word "commits" during lecture, but er... I don't know what happened. Sigh.

Yah lah, being geeky in the library again. Topics for my second Philosophy essay are out mah. I thought no one was around but after I took a few shots this guy suddenly appeared from behind. OOPS. Anyway the frosted glass says "Let him who reads, reflect" which is wrong. I don't see why there should be a comma and no full stop. Okay, if they want the comma, it should be "Let him, who reads, reflect." Otherwise just no comma seems fine to me too: "Let him who reads reflect FULL STOP!"

Cute car outside LT11. (Get the title of this post? Monday BLUES; BLUE car... GET IT?? GET IT??)

P.S. I have car for the whole week (again) because my aunt went to China! ;) So Hongwei, if you want a lift let me know! :)

Garfield and Snail

2005-03-19T00:51:00.000+08:00

Specially for our Xueli the Tortoise Rescuer -- since you like Garfield and snails. :p (Click for bigger picture.)

Something to know about E4 lab...

2005-03-17T21:22:00.000+08:00

This is the corridor leading to the E4 labs. There's a lot of construction work surrounding it, and for whatever reason, they locked up the glass door on the right. I've watched many people ram into the locked door (okay, fine, I did too, errrggh), and was wondering why there was no warning sign.

On closer inspection, however, I saw a small piece of masking tape on the door (circled in red).

On even closer inspection, I realised that the word "STOP" was written on it.

Can't see it? Neither can anyone else! It's written in like, 0.2 pencil! HOW IS THAT SUPPOSED TO HELP ANYONE? Sigh. Maybe one day I will just take out my red marker and write over the pencil lines. (Or just laugh at all the other people who will keep ramming into the door... :p)

in the library...

Mei Ling concentrating

Tuesday fun

2005-03-15T17:02:00.000+08:00

We went to look at the FYP posters today... Quite a good lesson in what not to do. Like, DO NOT use black words on dark purple background; DO NOT put flowcharts when the words are too blurred to be read.

But this was very... erm, cute. See if you can tell what is wrong! :p

Bought this bottle of water from the vending machine -- OXYGENATED some more!

Xueli: "What is that supposed to mean?? Does this mean that you will BURP after drinking it?? WAHAHAHAHA!!!"

(Mei Ling and Kenric walk further away from Xueli.)

Xueli: "Or does it mean that when you drink it you don't have to BREATHE anymore?? WAHAHAHAHA!!!"

(Byebye, Xueli... Sigh.)

The eggy M&M's that Xueli loves! :) (But I don't know what she's trying to do...)

Before Biochem lesson...

Finally, for those of you who miss the sight of Kenric sleeping (oops, he didn't know I took this photo, sorry Kenric!), or miss handsome Laksh (in the background)... :)

P.S. Aye, Jansen, can we have some sweet couply photos from you please?! Some people still don't know what your girlfriend looks like! (And your phone has camera right?!) ;)

The "Auntie" Gang

2005-03-14T15:14:00.000+08:00

As per Zijuan's request... (no more space on Flickr!)

Guess what belongs to who? :p

The Power of Love!

2005-03-14T00:35:00.000+08:00

Wah first time I've managed to get a shot of Jansen -- not just smiling -- but beaming FROM EAR TO EAR. Ah, the power of LOOOOOVE. :)

(Yah I know this doesn't really fit the theme of the blog, but where else to post the happy announcement, right? :p)

Typically Thursday

2005-03-10T18:03:00.000+08:00

Playing fishing! Thanks to Aiye... :) :) :)

Zijuan posing with the fishies. Check out Hongwei's look of disgust: "Green and red, you think you are traffic light ah!"

All of us. Oops Xueli had no lesson today!

We spotted a Sharity van!

And more importantly, A MILO VAN!

... Hongwei to me: "Don't fall into the hole!" GRRRR.

Browsing the bazaar at forum... so happening. Got live music some more! Even had this Terry-look-a-like singing. ;)

And Xueli, the Arena "sale" was just this small corner... :p

No school and no lab tomorrow, so my weekend has officially started! :) Have fun at work and play. Are we meeting this weekend? Hows about Sunday dinner? :)

Comp lab adventures AHEM

2005-03-09T21:35:00.000+08:00

On our way to the computer lab, Xueli spots a blue rubber band on the stairs...

Xueli: "WAH! BLUE RUBBER BAND LEH!"

Mei Ling and Kenric (uninterested): "Uh huh."

Xueli: "VERY RARE LEH!"

Kenric (in mock excitement): "WAH! ALSO GOT RED AND YELLOW RUBBER BAND LEH!"

Xueli (oblivious to sarcasm): "I know I know! I always see red and yellow! But BLUE IS VERY RARE LEH!"

Mei Ling and Kenric: "..."

Mei Ling: "I am going to take a photo of you and the rubber band..."

Xueli: "Don't take! Don't take!"

HUH?

2005-03-09T01:53:00.000+08:00

Hongwei's flattened garlic bun...

Me: "You never buy anything for me?"

Hongwei: "This is from yesterday -- you want?"

Me: "No thanks. Is that why it's FLAT?!"

Hongwei: "No lah, it's flat because I put a durian cake on it."

Me: "..."

Hongwei: "The durian cake is very nice you know?!"

Me: "???"

I'm not sure if this is a new sign board. But i've walked past the shop many times, and this is the first time i paid attention to it.

Last day before term break...

2005-02-18T23:26:00.000+08:00

(although I still have to be in school at 9 AM on Monday...)

Ran experiments the whole day, from 9 AM to 4 PM, but no results. In fact, results seem to contradict theory. :( Finally, we found out that the detector was faulty! So next week calling the manufacturer in to fix. Very funny. NOT FUNNY.

Of course, I only took photos when my PhD student went to the toilet... Otherwise she will think I'm a cuckoo bird. And I found a fridge! Much to my excitement. Unfortunately, nothing interesting inside except for lots of poisonous chemicals. Sigh.

Finally trudging home after a whole day of lab...

Got hungry at Clementi so bought Mr. Bean home... :) Feeling quite happy at this point...

Until it started to rain!!! And my brother wasn't at home to bring umbrella out for me. So what to do?

Use lab coat lor. Hur hur!

Home safe and sound, but velvet shoes are wet and squelching. I am also wet and squelching. My bag also wet and squelching. The lab coat also wet and squelching. And it did NOT help at all.

A very fun day that was good for the bushfires. But I am not a bushfire. (Sorry minus 20.)

jeanne's day

2005-02-18T15:14:00.000+08:00

French lecture: got 9/20 for my assignment

One final test before the mid-term break

Consultation with my finance tutor

My day...

2005-02-17T17:06:00.000+08:00

Snacking alone in LT7A... I learned that food tastes better when you have someone to share it with. *SNIFF* :(

A very quiet E5 comp lab...

Shopping for groceries with Hongwei... Well, he shopped. I... tried to read all the Chinese words. ;) And then I got laughed at for getting turnip and radish mixed up.

V-day :)

2005-02-16T08:39:00.000+08:00

Chocolates from Chee Sheng to Mei Ling, Zijuan, and Xueli. Awwww, so sweet! :)

Now we know what they do after snails *eeeeeevacuate* from their shells!

Happy CNY, everybody! :)
