morning comes around and i, cant wait to see my sunny island
in its glorious greenery, whether rain or shine its still beautiful
bright lights shine on the streets at night, guiding me closer to home
to a place where i know i'll be safe and warm where i belong
friends and family by my side, seeing me through as i grow and learn
everyday's experience bitter sweet or sour its still wonderful
I AM GOING HOME! :DD

the callings
exams are over, but why am i feeling so calm so unfeeling so numb. it feels so unreal that i'll be able to go home soon (not quite 9 days still feels quite long). the exams had seriously dragged on for too long, one month!! well almost its ridiculously long for just 4 papers!!! :(
the initial highness i thought this day would bring to me is not there. ah i feel so lazy, can i just go to sleep tonight and wake up on my singapore bedroom's bed tomorrow morning? with all my belongings safely transported back to where they belong.
and i saw the harry potter and the half blood prince's trailer. I CANT WAIT to catch the show on the big screen! i think i've read the book a dozen times and can even remember all the memories which dumbledore showed harry in sequence. JK Rowling is a real genius! and she deserves all the bucks she's earning now for creating such an awesome series. i am going to read the last book again for the nth time when i get back home. by far and by last [:(] my favourite book out of all. :)

the pink bomb
YAYS i just had accounting paper this morning and i am so so glad that its over! i mean the accounting paper, not the entire exam of course! was totally stressed out before the exam, couldn't sleep at all for the first few hours on bed last night my mind was like exploding with information and invisible post-it notes reminding me of this and that. and woke up at like 7am and couldn't get back to sleep. the paper was, well very tricky and time consuming. and my balance sheet, as always did not balance up! what the hell, always cannot balance, just call it an unbalance sheet. whatever it is its over!!! HAHAHA and i'll never need to touch accounting anymore :)
and these 2 days hell we were practically living in an oven! damn hot 33 degrees and its not even summer yet! im so glad i'll be going home soon :) and its not only the heat and sun, the flies!!! the flies were circulating me every few minutes when i was doing the paper, damn annoying. and if i ever didn't finish the paper it will be the flies fault. (haha push everything to the flies)
back to the title yes i received a pink bomb from the mail box! hahahaha. damn joke kept laughing and laughing when i saw it. the bomb exploded with 2 monsters emerging from it, a full grown dinosaur and a failed hercules-to-be. totally shocked and surpirse haha. a spectacular introduction into ntu hall of residence blk 11 #**-**** and made me even more confirm not to enter the very suspicious room when i go back hahaha. and sorry to disappoint i did not use the suspicious looking tissue paper enclosed! whose idea was it to enclose that tissue paper?! i see left over tom yum stains on it! please be more hygenic will the both of you! hahaha but THANKS the bomb looks like alot of work! totally appreciate it and definitely explosive for me. sweeeeeet and that made me feel even more like going home! and hang out till i hang out, use internet till the computer hang up! wow totally not addicted to the usage of hang out/up. haha!
WHEEEEEEE
I AM 20 DAYS FROM HOME! :DD
prepare the champagne uhu

this is no good
:(((((
i cant believe i still have to go through this very difficult period for another 5 times in future. going through it once now is already killing me. and this is the longest week i've ever lived through. it feels like ten thousand years had passed.
you know now i think studying for a's was so much better than now. at least i'm home..

updates
today can be voted as one of the hottest day since i came here. the sun is practically burning every thing under it man. within one hour i immediately turn into a roasted pork ribs! and sweated like i've never sweated in ages (which sadly to say is true). went for the last tennis lesson today and damn, i still cant swerve properly. and my backhand... :(
the scary flies are out now, in full swarm super disgusting! i've long heard stories about these flies, being slow, being big, being lazy and un-afraid of human. but i've never really experienced them until today. EEKS! keep circling around my head non-stop, and one even landed on my eyelid momentarily. i can still feel its big body on my eyelid now damn gross!!! totally remind me of that stupid toad in my school shoe last time. that feeling which lingered on my foot, same as the feeling which lingered on my eyelid now. though the toad one's still the ultimate.
and the ants, big black ants are all out and active!!!! eee i really hate ants to the max leh. they are totally the king of pests can, crowned by me. cockroaches at least they are relatively big and they don't come out in streams, a vacuum cleaner pesticide or slipper would do the job. rat a rat trapper, but ants!!! how to kill?! you kill a dozen today a hundred will emerge again tomorrow. never-ending! and i hate it that they are so small. humph all in all all sorts of pests should just go extinct, especially ANTS! the mp3 incident still gives me shivers whenever i think of it. *shivers*
okay i digressed. anyways i wanted to say after the session i had a very very strong craving for 100plus without gas. 100 plus!!! :( became really grumpy when i realised there isn't 100 plus here to drink after exercise. how can?! 100 plus the best isotonic drink! :(( proceeded to safeway (supermarket like ntuc) to buy whatever i intended to buy. and when i walked past the aisle which display soft drinks, a certain unknown invisible force pushed me into walking down that aisle and shifted my vision to the top most corner shelf and there it is! 100 PLUS! HAHAHA. sitting nice and steady alongside other isotonic drink. :DDD immediately grab a can can. haha. and continued with my groceries shopping with this change in mood :(( --> :DD
bought alot of unhealthy food back. instant noodles and canned campbell soup. i need excitement in my breakfast menu! i've been eating ham sandwich for the past 6 days consecutively, reason being need to consume the ham within 5 days after opening. super sians. super sick of having to chiong food because of expiry date, and worst thing is after finishing the food, you realise you gotta start the cycle all over again (the chionging food cycle) when you buy new ones. its a viscous cycle. neways, hahaha, say byebye to ham sandwich tomorrow, its garlic bread all over again, but this time round with mushroom soup!
exams are starting next week, this week of study break's gonna end soon. but man, who cares i cant wait for it to be here and over. my breakfast menu is never going to be boring again when i go back. wanton mee, mee pok, nasi lemak, fishball noodles, roti prata, laksa wow i am such an unhealthy girl through and through. wait for me poh tian(?) wanton mee!
*yumin is 27 days from home wheeee~*

burglary
as the title suggests, yes a burglary took place at my block last monday! gosh this is terrible, with all the security, cctv, card and everything, cant believe it happened.
last monday i was at home preparing to go for tennis when i heard a sound coming from my door, like someone trying to open the door knob very very lightly, but of course he/she whoever (my strong instinct tell me its a he!) cant open since the door was locked. so the sound's like tick then gone. because its usually very quiet here, like really quiet you can hear the tiniest sound. so i hurried over to the peep hole and yes peep out but i saw no one! so i thought i might have imagined the sound or something and went for tennis.
when i came back at night immediately saw notices looking for lost laptops, mp3 and bag. and the next day notices asking us to lock our doors and close our windows from the authorities. then everything started falling into place. on the same day one of the victim posted a notice telling us what happened. he said the burglar(s) went around checking everybody's doors, if it's unlocked, he just went in and took laptops. worst of all he said he's not the only one who's laptop got stolen! apartments which were not locked on the entire level all suffered. included my level. so thats 2. maybe more who knows. but i think he suffered (economically) most because he lost 2 laptops, 1 mp3 and 1 bag! gosh laptop! i would rather lose cash then laptop can! its our only tool to connect to the world and all our assignments, data, photos, songs, shows are all in it! cant imagine my life without my delly man. though sometimes its abit loud abit slow abit "sort" abit heavy, (not alot what) but you know, its okay because i cant live without it!
alrighty yes i know i always lock my door and never ever opens my window (because there's a big fat spider living on my window sill! humph xiang4 hua4 ma1) so i guess i'll be fine? but that incident left me more suspicious than ever, respond to the tiniest tiniest sound and become so yi shen yi gui. haha always thinking someone will spring into my house when im bathing or something.
right its week 11 into the semester and next week will be the last week of sem 1! :)) okay i won't say what everybody is saying, "don't you think time passes very fast?" no i refuse to agree because i want to go home!!!! so please double your speed so i can go home, and when i reach home slow down again can? heehee. oh no im sorry i take back my words, i forgot all about exams! hahaha.
anyways its time to choose new subjects for next sem now and im troubled. yes very troubled over breadth subject. i duno what to take as breadth! :( definitely not continuing with psychology that's for sure. probably i'll take up a language or something, not many choices anyway. chinese? hahaha siao. probably take something practical and usable. like hmm, indonesian aka malay or japanese? im not decided yet. most probably i'll take malay i think. i know everybody will go like eee why you take malay? but hey what's wrong with malay? we're surrounded by malay speaking countries and at least i can use it when i go malaysia or something. haha or converse with malay friends in malay. so its rather practical and won't forget that easily plus its in abc too, so shouldn't be as hard as jap eh. :D

stay healthy
my shoulder muscles are sore from holding the mouse for too long and my eyes cant function anymore. crazy accounting assignment! can totally fight with psychology essay. my poor eyes, it was seeing abcs a few weekends ago and now its 123 all over. sighhhs. really hate the accounting software, what would be completed manually within a day's assignment now took me 2 days. totally duno how to use the software man. sians to the max.
and im so sick of spending every weekend studying and doing work. so sick of the routine. i am literally a book worm, and worst still i think im turning into a woodblock soon! limited social life.
i want to exercise, i want to start running again. i know i want to, but what's stopping me? miss running on sa's track. those days during pe while we train for napha test. so fun. feel yourself going against the wind, feel your body working out and best of all feeling fit and healthy. okay decided, im gonna visit the gym next week after submitting all the assignments. :)

daylight saving time
while i was in the toilet just now after showering, i heard my neighbour singing! GOSH that is very bad news because that means all this while while i was bathing, my neighbours could actually hear me sing too!!! SHIT.
from yesterday onwards melbourne will be ahead of singapore time by 3 hours. originally 2 but from yesterday onwards until april 2009, it will be 3. no wonder my lappie's time suddenly changed on sunday, from 2pm to 3pm and i was like, eh? what happen, i looked at the alarm clock on my table and my laptop's time, very smart me decided something must be wrong with the laptop's time so i changed it and started to live my life one hour behind everyone else's. haha. so i happily reported late for tennis by an hour today, still thinking why are my tennis mates different. really a big joke man, it was then that i knew about this daylight saving time thing. so every year around october they will change the time and tune it to be an hour ahead so there is more daylight, like 6pm become 7pm, so by 7pm there will still sunlight and the day is kind of extended. and they will change the time back again by next year.
luckily i have no lessons today if not i would have missed all of them. its so annoying! don't tamper with time leh, body clock cannot be changed that easily one okay. angry already lah.
school's gonna start tomorrow and i kind of regretted not starting on my assignments early. :(( die, so going to die if i cant finish my assignments by this weekend.

singapore day
singapore day turn out to be a small disappointment, probably because again i was too overly excited over it and expecting too much from it. the royal melbourne show was too good to be compared with singapore day but of course its unfair to compare because the scale of the show was so much bigger.
the aim of singapore day is actually to "remind" overseas singaporeans that singapore is their home, singapore has transformed into such an attractive country to reside in that everybody overseas should come home with their families and stay back home. so there are booths like army booth (probably to show that sg is a safe country to live in? i duno! haha), education booth (to show how well-rounded sg's education system is so that people who are thinking to start a family or who have already started should bring their children back for education) and of course not to forget food booth the ultimate climax of the day. they brought in char kuay teow, hokkien mee, chicken rice, satay, grilled chicken wings, nasi lemak, roti prata, nasi briyani (im not sure about this but i remembered seeing someone eating it!) bah chor mee (omg my mee pok!), claypot rice, spaghetti (i duno what's so authentic about spaghetti because its not like we're italy, but they brought it over anyway), chendol and ice kachang. i hope i didn't miss anything.
yarh that's alottt of food, but i only got to eat chicken rice, char kuay teow, satay and chicken wing because the queues are like crazy. our chicken rice, char kuay teow and satay cost us around 1 and a half hour of our time, though the food are free, but ahem, in an economist point of view (yah economist that's me) it is not!
there were performances too, by hardy, tay ping hui and pck and family. the show by pck and family was really really good, haha really laugh out loud can. i want to sing engrish shongs, and there was this dispute over the pronunciation of esplanade, esplanade or esplanut because chu kang kept insisting it was esplanut, and it ended with pck asking nah-than or nad-than. haha everybody was like, okay nothing to rebutt and rosy said nat-han. my goodness so stupid can. haha stupid until its so funny cannot take it.
this singapore day left me more homesick than ever, not because their aim of reminding us singapore is our home was being met, (like anyone needs reminder of where our home is, if some people need then i rather the country not have these people because they'll definitely be the first to run if anything happens! home is home! okay! don't understand why some people can just migrate away from the lovely sunny island. they must be mad! mad!) but because of those familiar smell of hawker centre and coffeshop that float around us when we're queuing for food, those familiar accent coming from people right left front and back of us, familiar singaporean faces (yes singaporeans do have a face i realise!) we see when we walk everywhere just struck me on how much i wanted to be back home at that moment. to be back in the familiar environment and around familiar people, to be walking on real city hall land, eating in the real newton circus, strolling along the real marina bay looking out and taking photo with a real esplanade. the reason why i put so many real is because they tried to create the sg feel by putting up pictures of esplanade, roadsigns of city hall, marina bay, newton circus and clarke quay. haha. so cute. yeah so if you say sg day can help ease some of our homesickness, it is definitely a big WRONG comment to pass. (is my wrong big enough?)
my goodness i sound like a big baby crying for mum, never would i want to admit i am homesick because i never thought i would. but now, no choice arh, spurred by the continuous dreams i've been having these few nights, of being back home. actually secretly everybody around me are homesick and wants to go home, don't think i never notice arh! haha! nothing escape my eyes~ (yah talk cock) what's with the rush of changing flight dates when the exam time table is out even though its only a few days of difference. what's with the excitement in the air when october arrives because we're another month closer to going home.
but i must calm down! this two months will be a very crucial period of time, its everything we're working for and i must do well for the exams, so i mustn't be too carried away by the excitement of being able to go home. end of singapore day also means end of mid-sem break, tomorrow onwards its back to the mundane routine. on a brighter side though, the routine will only last for another 59 days!!! :DDD
alamak, despite all that was being said (typed?), the excitement still kept surging through me. i am already thinking about 2nd dec night, i think i might fall asleep early, because time pass faster when we're asleep, and when i open my eyes the next day, I AM GOING TO GO HOME!!! my heart might burst open with happiness and excitement on the plane back, a few hours away from home... :)
