Destroying Jerry


Jerry has just been destroyed. Not the Jerry on my right but rather the real pest, rat that has been terrorizing me since i came back from US. Man, that piece of rat has been coming into my room. Just now, i was about to go into my room and have a chat with Amy through the phone. Little do i know that Jerry was there in my room waiting to scare me! Damn Jerry jumped across me as my mum was about to catch it. Man, i have never been so terrified. I feel weak. But hey! It is a f.... damn rat!

Luckily, it couldn't escaped as my mum has already set up a few traps for poor Jerry and it was caught with this sticky pad beneath it. I wouldn't say what happen to Jerry but beneath is a small little pic of Jerry. (Hey, it looks a little disgusting)

Resume Writing

After coming back from US, i haven't got the chance to re-do or rather give my resume a face-lift. I need to add in my new qualifications as well as put in some nice "make up" for it. I came across this pretty useful webbie that could provide me very lots of help. http://www.lifeclever.com/2006/10/24/give-your-resume-a-face-lift/
If any one of my friends will to see this, they could probably be sending a resume that has the same style as mine. Haa.

Piece of crap


Sometimes i wonder why people are so weak in thinking! They should have foresee that such a problem could exist and photo-copy, say a few more copies as backup. Now that one of the prof did not bring it back from US, and they have the cheek to ask me to re-write the whole assigment again! What the heck! I will not write it again!
  1. Firstly, the assignment requires 1500 words
  2. I have long forgotten all the teachings being taught to me
  3. I am just been guan lan and not corporative!
It is their fault to mess up the whole sitaution and i am in no mood now to re-do the whole thing for them. Anyway, it is just an assigment and why can't they just let us have any 'A' grade. They even let us passed from grad diploma without marking our assignment first. Damn crap! phissss...

Unhappy Saturday


Things have changed abit since i have came back. Doesn't feel this way when i am back from Europe when i was there during my Summer camp in Paris, France. Doesn't feel this way when i came back from Shanghai, China after half a year. Why now? Is it because it has been so long? I wonder. I do hope that things will get back to the time before otherwise i really dun wish to come back and learnt about the truth now.

Laguna Beach (aka the one that is shown on MTV)


Laguna Ave. Behind this will be the laguna beach.

So what is legal and illegal holidays? Those that i always self-declared will be considered illegal then. Haa.

A look of the famous Laguna Beach. Well, the weather has turned cold hence the whole beach looks empty. According to a friend's friend, during summer, the whole place is so packed that a parking lot will be almost impossible to find.
Adri here looking so absorbed in her book reading. Deep in thoughts!


That is us! other than Alex who is taking this picture i suppose. I was trying to act cold. Actually, it was a pretty cloudy day.

BACK HOME! but yucks!

Finally home, but wait, what happened to Singapore? What is wrong with the air quality? The air is so bad now! As i am typing, 98.7fm tells me that the PSI is 97 which is way away from the healthy range! Man! The weather is so terrible that it makes my puffing lips even worse. Pui. Hope it clears up soon.

Got to go unpack first! Too much shit in my luaggage! As a matter of fact, there are still so left over sand that i brought all the way back from laguna beach to Singapore. It somehow landed inside my suitcase. Must have been the Hollister Bermudas that i wore during the laguana beach outing. Yeeee

Going back home!

I am now at Motel 6, a very famous and cheap motel in United States. The one that i am staying now is actually pretty good! Got swimming pool, free parking for cars!And best of all, this one is just 10 minutes drive to the LAX! Well, everything needs to come to an end. I prob should look forward to the new life i am going to have.

Went to the famous Rodeo drive yesterday. Got the Coach bags that i promised Baby that i need to get.

2nd day at San Fran

Did not do much today though. We went around shopping and seeing stuff. Well, i guess the highlight was prob that we saw a public protest in the streets. Outside Westfield Shopping mall. Took a video clip with my handphone as well.



Apple! Was contemplating about buying ipod for so long. Wanted to get one for Baby, and another nano for Joanna. well, due to lack of funds, these ideas have been shelfed aside for some time. Maybe i should just get one. Well, at least Justin did get one today! See! He bought a 30GB of IPOD at only 349 USD! Much cheaper than in Singapore!

End of First day at San Fran


First stop. We took this tram like structure to visit the fisherman wharf. Bought the 1 day pass at 11 USD and used most of the transport system available. At fisherman wharf, we bought the pass to visit Alcatraz island. The ride was very smooth and enjoyable since this time we don't have to walk alot. Me, Yunxi and Alex. I was trying to look cool.

Before it all got started, we were waiting for the ferry to bring us to Alcatraz. Some of the famous people that was imprisoned there includes Al Copone. There are movies like "Escape from Alcatraz and The Rock" that were made after this island.









We visited Alcatraz!! The infamous island that was used to house all those terrible prisoners.

3 singaporeans managed to escaped and was playing punk!! Trying to aaact coollll.
Wharf 39 - The Place where all the seafood is about!

The 4 of us end our whole day trip in the famous Cheese Factory at Macy's! I had sooooo much to eat that i was practically forcing myself to finish the Toberlone Swiss Cheesecake that i had ordered for dessert! Fantastic! Being not so much of a sweet-eater, i have to say the cheesecake was really good. How i wish i could share this experience with my Baby! Wish that i could bring her here one day!

Beautiful day to start

It's 4th of October today and it's 9a.m now. Beautiful outside when i look through the window of my hotel. Going to enjoy my coffee later. Going to explore the sights of San Fran later...
This kid was sooooo busy trying to feed those pigeons that she keep pouring out those seeds for them.

Graduation at University of Washington

Finally, the biz plan was over and even though the graduation ceremony happens some time ago, i was too busy to blog about it. The ceremony happens in Kent hall in University of Washington.
Feels weird to wear that stupid costume again. However, i still do hope to wear it again when i get my Masters next year. Hee. Shanghai should be fun!Concientally, our grad day is actually the first day for the undergraduates in UW. Therefore, we actually get to see alot of people and how their orientation is all about. Very cool i must say!

Road trip and San francisco

We have reached San Francisco via Alaska Airlines. The flight was smooth and we had the whole of back seats to ourselves. Coming back to San Fran this time doesn't create alot of excitment for me, i think. Just the same old place i have seen. However, the previous week that was spent here, i only managed to walk around union square. Well, this time, i stayed at Holiday Inn.
The whole story goes like this, we were supposed to stay at YMCA, but the whole place look very run down and we cant stand staying overnight there. In the end, we have to pay an extra of 35 USD per person for a night and the cancellation fee. Haiz, a waste of so much money. But the holiday inn was very comfortable and i guess it was very worth it.
Talk about the whole area in San Fran, it was very scary. Kinda of remind me of those days i spent in europe, specifically rome. There were plenty of weird looking and high on drugs Blacks everywhere. They were talking to themselves, begging for food and money. Luckily, those Blacks did not disturb us other than just occassionally beg money from us.
Now, i start to appreciate the saftey and high standard of living in UW! or at least near Silver cloud Inn in Univsersity District.

Meeting with Justin's Cousin or Uncle?

U know what? We were so fortunate to meet up with Timberlake's (that is what we call Justin) cousin. His cousin is called Bernard or Bernie that what his friends call him.
That is Samantha. Bernie's daughter! We had a great time with Bernie and his daughter!

Beginning of US road trip


Mount Whistler. Fantastic view. Love the road trip. We drive for around 5 hours to mt. whistler from Seattle. Along the way, we stopped by Tulalip Premium outlet. Below is us taking photo behind the car we rented from Budget.
It was a beautiful place that we rented and it was really cheap for around 32 US dollars per person. It was exactly like prof tan house. 2 stories, great view, kitchen, hot tub. Brillant.
View from the top.
