I had my very first driving lesson yesterday. Before i went i was filled with apprehension.. Well, from my performance standard with Daytona i knew i wasnt gonna be a good driver... Hahaha.. Turns out my worries were un-needed.. Studying hard for my advanced theory did helped alot.. cos when i sat in the driver's seat i already knew where all the controls were and their uses.. So it started off well.. Then when i finally moved the car.. WOOOHOOO.. the feeling was out of this world!! I MOVED THE CAR! I MOVED THE CAR! Hahaha.. So that was the kind of feeling... And before the instructor asked me to make turns i started to drive the car one round through the circuit.. Well he asked me to drive on mah.. never say cannot make turns.. Hehe.. End up he praised me leh.. He say i was a natural with the steering wheel when turning at bends.. Then he asked me whether i play arcade games.. i replied, "Yes.. the frequent practices at Daytona certainly helped! Haha." Oh and btw.. that instructor was rather handsome.. Hope i will see him again. Hehe. =P

These are the events in my life for the past few days..
Thursday 8/6
Went out with Esther and Jolin jiejies.. They just got back from their superb Taiwan trip which i was so jealous of.. So they were telling me about their travel tales.. and not bad they bought me a present.. And how well they understand me man.. The present was a magazine featuring Sun Xie Zhi.. He is still as shuai as ever! Haha.. We watched the movie -The Omen... not the kind of movie i will die to watch.. cos ive got a weak heart la.. easily scared.. and so was Jolin.. The two of us kept covering our eyes throughout the scariest (or even the not so scary) parts.. while Esther was there so excited over the way the story was progressing.. Haha.. So its obvious who came up with the idea of watching a horror movie ya?
Friday 9/6 - One-day trip to JB
Went to JB for a shopping cum eating spreeeeeee with Sheya, her parents, her sis and her sis's friend.. Wah lau.. the experience was like a revival of the times i had in M'sia last year for the Field Studies module... The feeling of seeing things having the same price as in Singapore but all in RM.. Hahaha.. its just shuang lor.. I bought a skirt, a jacket, a top, and a hairclip.. And in total i think i only spent about 50+ Sg dollars.. So satisfied with my "kill" man... But this is not the best part.. The BEST BEST BEST part of the trip was the food.. The food there is more delicious than anything ive eaten before in Singapore.. and many many times cheaper.. These are the things we ate - bbq stingray, bbq squid, kangkong, cockles, crayfish, bbq chicken wings, bbq chicken buttocks (kao ji bi gu).. these are for dinner.. oh and not forgetting the wonderful fishhead curry we had for lunch.. it was so nice that even a person like me who dun really like curry ate alot.. Never felt so PIGGISH in my life.. but it was all so worth it!!
Saturday 10/6
It was my driving advanced theory trial test.. wah not easy lor.. I failed almost every one cos i didnt really study much.. Like i said i have been playing too much la.. Haha.. Everytime im online and im suppose to be looking at the e-tutorial.. i will end up watching "Goong" (palace) on youtube.. Really lack of self-control.. BUT Goong is such a nice show!! Haha.. side-track abit here.. Goong is a Korean drama about the Royal family in Korea in the present times (which is imaginary la).. a commoner girl gets married to the Crown Prince due to an arranged marriage.. and then all the juicy bits would be how the 2 of them who didnt like each other at all at first started to fall in love.. and about how another Prince tried to fight for the Crown Price's position and also fell for the Crown Princess .. So its a fight for both the position and the girl.. Haha exciting eh? And also i really like the clothes they wear.. all so beautiful.. especially those of the Crown Princess.. and she is so pretty... This show often make me daydream about becoming a princess then a prince would come and sweep me off my feet and then......... Oopps.. Okie back on track la.. In the evening after the test i went with Huiting to watch a basketball tournament at the court near our house...Its a match between teams from different community centres but a team of celebrities also joined... So actually we went to see the artisites la.. not the ah peks la.. Haha.. I think the most handsome in the team was Zhang Yao Dong bah.. although he on tv not very super shuai but in real life he has that kinda charm... especially his smile.. and his built.. can see very clearly with basketball attire.. Thats wad i like about basketball match - can see tall and well-built guys in sleeveless jerseys. =P
Sunday 11/6
Was sick of studying my advanced theory at home.. so i went down to VTC to find Crystal, Auntie Julie they all to chat.. and shun bian study a bit cos there can ask them if i dun understand anything.. But chatting with them is extremely enjoyable la.. so the studying part was voided.. Haha... Auntie Julie la.. She is so funny lor.. and i think me and her can really talk at the same frequency.. Crystal say its cos we are both bimbos.. Haha.. but i say its just that we like the same things.. You know like fashion, clothes, hair, manicure and all the girlie stuff la.. Heheh..
Monday 12/6 (TODAY)
Its the VTC bowling session again with Auntie Julie, Audrey (her daughter), Mr Ong and Crystal.. SzWha couldnt come.. Wah lau this time i had ultimate breakthroughs man!! I hit the FIRST strike in my life!! Haha.. After which i still had another strike and 2 spares.. Not bad results eh? Haha.. I improved a lot again.. My highest score was 85.. Hehe this time can say my score liao cos i think its not too lousy.. One interesting thing happened that further indicate that me and Auntie Julie are on the same frequency.. After she hit down 9 pins, she saw that the last pin was wobbling.. and then she started jumping.. and guess wad! The last pin fell! Hahaha.. After which when such a thing happened to me, i jumped too.. and yes indeed the last pin wobbled a bit and fell... Hahaha.. Such things only work on me and Auntie Julie.. We have unique powers.... =P

Ai Wu Li by Kelly Poon is a song i listen to during the early mornings when i go to work.. The peaceful atmosphere and cool weather in the mornings often make me think alot... This song describes my feelings very well.. especially the line that goes "i look at the sky and lightly breathe".. the sky in the early mornings are always so clear and beautiful, and the air is so fresh.. As i walk from the bus-stop to the Budget Terminal i would really look at the sky and breathe in the fresh air.. Somemore i think Kelly sang it very nicely.. So i really like this song very much.
Worked as a Chinese-to-English translator last holidays.. shall practise a bit now... Gonna attempt to translate the Chinese lyrics into English.. in case there are any non-Chinese who reads my blog or Chinese who do not read Chinese very well.. such as Kenneth.. hehee.. i used to translate Chinese lyrics into English for him. =p
Ai Wu Li - Kelly Poon
After we broke up,
although we are still friends,
but becoming friends again after being lovers,
things are can never be the same as last time.
Feeling lonely has become a habit of mine,
so used to the sense of loneliness in my heart.
Missing you shouldn't be happening,
it shouldn't be accompanying me through every night.
I just wanna look at the sky and lightly breathe,
asking myself who do i really love.
In the midst of confusion,
i think back and all the past memories of you flashed back.
The feelings of our past love continues to live in my heart,
accompanying me through the times i silently weep.
I don't understand love anymore,
my heart feels totally drained...
Actually im very awake,
actually im very clear,
looking at my tears flowing down...

Right after i got my hair done i went to meet the VTC (Victoria Tutorial Centre) people for bowling.. and of cos to show off my new hairdo la.. Haha.. The 'people' incuded Crystal, SzWha, Mr Ong, Auntie Julie, her daughter.. oh and another girl i forgot her name.. Auntie Julie say i look like Barbie doll!! Haha.. if its not cos i look more bimbotic, then i suppose it must be a compliment... Yeah.. Basically i received a fair share of positive comments about my hair.. So i was very happy.. And my bowling skills improved!! I shall not reveal my humble score here in case some of you might laugh till your teeth drop.. but im glad i improved.. Thanks to my good teachers there!
I guess im really intending to make myself look different this time.. Hehe.. i just went to make a new pair of specs.. I seldom wear specs im sure you all realise.. Thats cos my old specs is really old and 'orbiang' la! Wah lau.. so this time i got myself a real shi mao (fashionable) one.. orange colour de neh! Heheh.. a hyrid of a mature-looking hairstyle and super funky specs.. i hope the look will turn out okie.. We shall wait and see!! =P

Its the 2nd birthday of my blog!
Was looking through my earliest blog entries... Realised my first entry was on 1st June 2004.. thats exactly 2 years ago... How time flies... I started reading through a bit... but you koe im such a long-winded person.. all my wordy entries made me sleepy.. Haha.. no la i was already sleepy when i starting reading... Anyway reading past blog entries is a good way of understanding yourself.. There are often times in life when you feel that you dun understand yourself anymore.. thats because you are probably cooped up within a small section of your memories.. which is most likely to be the most recent ones.. Then its time to extend your conscious memories to a wider spectrum... Recalling past memories, be it sad or happy, is often the way to understand yourself better.. cos you can see how you have progressed in life.. You may have a sudden revelation.. "Oh I didnt know i was like that in the past!" ..you koe something like that..
Throughout our lives we often seek so hard to understand others around us... often complaining that so and so is very hard to understand blah blah.. But i realised the person that is most hard to understand is your ownself.. You may be surprised, but others around you may understand you better than yourself.. Cos people often have certain qualities that they expect of themselves... "I AM like that wad.. I AM blah blah.. blah blah.." ..these qualities may not be true.. and people may just live in denial.. Sometimes not on purpose la.. but you just dun realise it.. So thats why its so important to have friends.. they are the ones who will let you see who you are.
