WAHHH! its been so long since I last blogged.
What am I doing 3 months later?
No more working at Dentsu.
Rejected job offer at Mileage Communications.
Now I am a relief teacher at a primary school.
Everyday, I see, meet, teach and scold rich kids.
Teaching them has been very fun so far.
Today, they attempted to bribe me into giving them 15 more minutes for PE!
kid 1: Ms Tang, can we have 15 more minutes of PE?
me: No. We are going back to class.
kid 2: Please. I give u sweets.
I give u Pokemon cards, I got a lot! (using his hands to show me the length of the stack of cards he has)
kid 3: I give u spinning erasers! very powerful one!
kid 4: Yah! I give you mine also. You said you collecting erasers right? Or I help you make?
me: I dont want these things....
kid 5: ok! i give you handphoneS!
me: -.- dont want....
me: okok! I'll give you all 15 minutes to play games!
kid 6: I give you mp3 player. (me: I do suspect this kid is either in lala land or suffering from slow reaction)
and so they played.
At the end of the day, while they were packing their bags to go home, I wanted to make an announcement. Naughty boy Ernest came.
Me: 2 Wis..
Ernest: Ms Tang, I cant find my English Worksheet. (They need to hand in the English Worksheet which was their weekend homework)
Me: Go and find your bag!
Me: 2 Wis..
Ernest: Ms Tang! I know where is it! I passed it up with my English WB this morning.
Me: Okok.
Then I saw a student laughing because I was interrupted twice by Ernest!!! 2 Wis.. 2 Wis
Then another student said.. "Are you going to say 2 Whis-per?"
They jolly well knew their class is 2 Wisdom! GRRRR.

yesterday I went to watch live soccer match with honz, sky, ken, tania and 2 of honz's friends. its the first leg of the ASEAN Championship finals!
hohoho!
my first time watching soccer live in National Stadium. its sucha different experience from Rugby Sevens!
no beer. lots of cursing, swearing. =.=
I've had fun, cos everyone was onz about cheering for our national team and cursing the toufu iron ladies.
honestly, they were falling every now and then, and the ref gotta stop play, it got very irritating after a while. =(
the most interesting part of the match was when the ref gave Singapore a penalty! obviously we cheered for the penalty! then the bloody goalkeeper ran away. -.- the next thing i knew was iron ladies did not want to play anymore. WALAO.
soon, the stadium was filled with curses and cheers, and kallang waves, and words that made us Singapore supporters look really ugly. whatever.
the iron ladies supporters had the cheek to cheer for their home team. Again, Singapore supporters scolded the Thai supporters across the bar barricade. imagine the entire stadium chanting "F*** YOU" at them. team spirit. =.=
overall, its was fun!!!
we headed for supper at Geylang! yummy. ate food and we headed home.
by then, the last train was already asleep and gotta take cab home.
I knew dad was coming home at night, so I purposely waited for him to arrive in Singapore so I can get a ride home in his cab - save money. think his flight got delayed and he arrived Singapore at 1250am. mum told me he's arriving at 12am. GRRRR. lucky for me, ken accompanied me. saved me from the boredom. haha!
we chatted till dad came to fetch me in his cab.
its been a fun outing. i think i am gonna miss u guys.

i realised that i've got the mood to blog when i'm tired.
been down with a cold, sore throat and slight cough since fri night.
canon is over! my very first entry is submitted on sat by yy! =D
after two night of intensive editing, i am so thankful that we submitted that fat shit.
if yy had not press on to continue editing, i doubt the film will ever be done.
thanks yy.
this year's canon was kinda interesting, cos we had the help of honz and wl. somehow film-makers are more helpful these days. so cheers to film-making, wondering when will our next film be made.
*cough cough*
internship posting is out!
draft fcb.
a sizeable advertising agency.
heard they expect alot from the interns. heard i'll learn alot from my internship.
i'm just keeping my fingers cross. =/
i'm so glad yy got posted to a sizeable pr firm too!
its a "fishermans/foolishmen" firm.
hope she gets to learn alot from them too! =)
*blows nose*
today was the internship briefing.
i am beginning to miss my friends in sp.
i am scared about my internship at draft fcb.
there is one irritating person who was subconsciously haolianing abt how huge is his/her internship company, and the awards it receives.
well well, i dont really care about how huge is your internship company, so long as irritating person have fun there. done.
time to sleep! i am sooooo dead.

tiring.
thanks to the cv and resume assignment which deprived me of my much needed sleep, i felt so tired now. rajan said he could spot the mistakes easily. i tried to put in effort.. still like that. zzz.
today is the shooting day.
due to the last minute switch to an incredibly short script, shooting will most prob take half a day, as expected.
hope there is no need to reshoot anything.
okay, now its time to digitise the tape and edit the footage!
so must pia all the way till saturday.
yy, my filming partner, said all my works are short works, just like this film i suppose, wonder if it is a compliment. =.=
short as it may seem, it needs the help of friends.
lotsa people came forward to offer their help, which is very nice of them, esp cos we are rushing to meet the extended deadline.
people like wl, haz, honz, sky, van, samm, xia, poh hwa...
some helped, some ended up din help cos no help is needed.
still, i appreciate the notion of offering to help.
guess how we found our talent?
we roam town looking for the right size .
finally, Mr Right Size appeared.
we need to approach Mr Right Size, and ask him if he is willing to be our talent.
first time approaching guys ok!
Mr Right Size turns out to be a really nice guy and he readily agreed.
he is sooo nice.
he looks so innocent, child-like.
okay, soon, maybe i'll complain abt editing.
so, cheers to a film made out of friendship. =)

watched the banquet just now.
though it was in chinese and i had to read every single subtitle (including the lyrics to the song.. zzz), i enjoyed the movie!
apart from the eye-candies (daniel wu!) the dialogue was kinda witty.
"a million calculations cannot be compared to a pure heart"
wah. one-liner to sum up the final half an hr of the banquet. hohoho.
goodnight. =)

saw my new timetable today. this piece of shit determines my next 6 weeks of poly life when sch reopens. on it, it has a weird slot called "IP" which stands for internship programme, i think.
asked jer what is he gonna do after internship: work in singapore.
he has to be tied down to our sunny island cos of the smaller amount of school fees he is paying now.
something like being a whore.
whether they like it or not, they have to pay rent, some pay more, some pay less.
during their stay here, they earn as much as they can before leaving this tropical orchid island.
well, any idea who is big papa pimp in this "whore" business???
WAHAHAHAHAHA.

year 3 dmc people are perhaps one of the luckiest (and sexiest) bunch of people in campus, simply becos we got no exams! so we are suddenly given SIX WEEKS of hols, after slogging our ass, brain, soul, and sleep out for all the projects. wonder if people do consider that a novelty. heh.
this load of free time suddenly came crashing to me means that:
A. u can sleep all u want
B. u can earn all the money u want
C. u can enjoy yourself and waste your life away
poor jason has 4 exams papers.
*i walked away from comp to watch tv. jason enters scene to use comp. dad walks past*
DAD: so serene started her holidays, u also ah?
JASON: no lah, i still got exams.
DAD: how many papers?
JASON: 3 more papers. (he finished one paper this morning)
DAD: THREE MORE PAPERS?! WHY ARE U USING THE COMPUTER? GO TO YOUR ROOM AND STUDY.
*jason leaves scene, dad walks away.*
when there are so many projects to do, i complain.
when i have so much free time on my hands, i complain.
yes. i am never satisfied.
walao. must go out and earn money in case i am really going on an overseas trip this hols. i am dying to go overseas. cos for this sem, day in, day out, projects projects projects!!!
its indeed a relief that projects are over, not becos nova comm people are a torture to hang out with, but becos i am lazy. but i will definitely choose projects over exams anytime!
the people i worked with are nice people. they are willing to sacrifice sleep to get work done. even for their great effort, they get their confidence battered from time to time. nova comm was never a perfect group. we have our unhappiness, our anger within our group. we have tonnes of latecomers (i am one of them). we have our broken promises. we have times where we overslept. we have so many sessions where we keep attacking each others' opinions. we have occasions where we are just not disciplined enough to do work.
this load of free time suddenly came crashing to me means that:
A. look for a job
B. learn driving
C. go overseas
D. meet up with my good old pals whom i have neglected
this holidays will be an interesting piece of shit, cos everyone in my family (except guang) is going away! different destinations of course! =D

with nothing to do, i feel happy, but bored.
started reading blogs again. i realise i lost track of time. it's nearly the end of may! absurd. these days, i associated my schedule with week 6 school, week 7 of school.
one day, i will be forgotten. my mere existence as a project mate, or a classmate, or your friend, or a stranger, may be lost with time. its sad, its cruel. when one's effort is reduced to marks, when one's time is reduced to deadlines.
(just for laughs) when one's existence reduced to an animal in the farm. *hint hint*
i'm moving on. =)

it's quite a wrong time to create an addiction.
it's not that i want to.
recently, i have been reading, chinese books somemore!
i was reading through every single chinese word (if i dont know how to read, i skip lah), read till my white hair are sprouting out among the hay.
adding to that addiction, nice yy burned the bleach anime for me.
whoa. imagine reading and watching bleach.
yea. i am a slow learner, late starter, whatever.
cos my classmates kinda caught the bleach craze much earlier and i just started on it. zzz
dad's company got him a new lappy and that means i can hide in my messy room and watch the anime, while my stupid bro can hug our desktop to sleep. he loves the comp very much, i am so sure i won't get to watch bleach on the desktop.
like bleaching agents, distractions wipe knowledge off your brains, leaving no trace behind.
it's scary how u seem more retarded each day as your mind is filled with distractions.
food for thought:
ever since those people who wants everything in the world?
i am refering to those people who grabs everything, be it useful or not, so that they won't lose out.
some of them are armed tactless words. how they really hurt one's pride. =/

after a long absence, here's an entry. =)
helped wils, hw and sky with filming last week. so tiring. felt it's all worth-it though. first time i been on set for a film production. u should have seen how professional the directors, cameramen and talents were! ok. i know i sounded sua-ku, but filming with them has been such an eye-opener! =D
still, i find doing sound & lights boring. yet, someone has to do it. it's not my script nor my film, i can't possibly be the directors. no acting potential in genes, so also cannot be talent. HOHOHO.
first-time filming experience is fun! i like it. shall try filming someday. bet editing is the hair-pulling, white-hair-sprouting process. HAHAHA.
been raining the past few days. i dread going to school. especially when u gotta crawl outta bed in the chill wind of the aircon. walao. how i wish to snuggle under my blanket.... hmmmmmmm.... =)

yesterday was the first day of school after a month of brain inactivity. no idea what is becoming of me, but i just feel so sleepy on the first day of school.
while strolling from shenton way to suntec, noticed that singapore's building is getting more and more artistic. finally seen the UFO-ish new supreme court, so unlike the all ye old supreme court, which carried the impartial and fierce look. the development of singapore architecture design. HMMMM...
sentosa became a ghost town, where only the ignorant tourists look look-see see, and the locals hoarding the beaches in the day. explored sentosa by foot. it wasn't as WOW and fantastic as i thought it was. the new monorail station looks like LRT stations. sad to say, sentosa is not well-maintained and we may lose sentosa as a tourist attraction spot soon. =/
halloween is nice! people roaming the streets in all weird costumes. WAHAHAHA! imagine seeing darth vader besides bugs bunny! it's sucha cool thing to be dressed up and join in the fun! i've decided, next year i'll dress up. hope erik returns soon. i want to go costume party with him.............. and hp, yy and all who wanna go!

can't stand SP's sas system!!!!
it lags.
it's so slow. fancy taking 10 mins to load a page. zzzz
no one wants to risk their chances by clicking refresh, so they wait. and wait. and wait.
an unfair way of registration.
was online at 0130 in the afternoon because my registration appointment was from 2-3. i was prepared. i knew what general-elective-module (GEMS) to aim for.
finally, it's time for registration. my classmates online were chatting and giving the signal to start registration. someone just blew the whistle for a race to begin.
it was taxing to see only 4 places were left for real estate marketing. what the hell, we were the first few to enter and we are offered 4 places for the friday slot?!
i was rather close to getting my GEMS. was choosing my class for real estate, which i made a boo boo and clicked many times. frantically clicking to see a tick appear. it was loading, then... blank screen. dammitdammitdammit. started right from the beginning. lost my place for real estate. ='(
i forgot all about the 11pm appointment. went to take a bath then realise got appointment cos yy and van called. went into sas, as usual, that system is like an old man smoking his pipe, taking a stroll. i was very very pek cek. here i am rushing to see if i can get my gems, and the loading bar seems stagnant. i really wanted real estate marketing. next, i received calls telling me that i there is one place available. kan chiong!!!!!
but sas is horrible. people logged in and try 8 times to see blank screens. people logged in, can see the available places but can't click on the option. zzz.
the system is slow and expect the entire SP to enter at the same time to register their GEMS. wtf?!
option forms should be used. =)
lucky for friends who are willing to help. i appreciate them because they pull me out of those distressing moments where everyone has gems but i don't. it's sad to be gems-less. ='( sas became a war zone, where everyone is waiting, waiting a module to drop while another can grab it.
yy helped me get my gems. hw helped me look out for available places. they are nice people.
wish the world has more of these nice people!!!!! =D

chalet seems like a getaway. it's the time you get a break from your usual routine and rebel against all your schedules. a getaway from fringing naggy mummys. just put your mind to having fun with your friends, eat, night walks, eat, sleepless nights.
the music, the chill air, the people, the games, the vodka. indeed a drop too much. silly me, read the label on that harmless clear bottle and saw it reads "40%". overestimation of my limits. played indian poker. they love telling the truth more than lying. such an honest yet unlucky bunch. if luck is on your side, u won't have to swallow the vodka. down 3 shots of vodka. not just 3 ounce of vodka, it's just a lot more. drank the first with a mixer, aloe vera apple juice - choking. drank the other two shots pure. by the third final shot, i was overwhelmed by the "tight" feeling in my throat. it's that hell strong. try it.
7 of us finished 1 litre of vodka. citrus vodka. medicine taste.
obviously we got high. freaking high. hw, sky, shawn were dancing to the music. shawn was spelling words. jer (being sober) was teaching shawn weird dance moves, tania and i were giggling, and the whole lot of us were puking, except jer, yy and tania.
wasted pathetic bodies were we.
i hated that feeling. i know i could control my movements, just that things don't go my way. i know what i am doing yet my body doesn't listen to my mind. felt like crying yet laughing most of the time. i puked a lot a lot a lot. my dinner included. my vomit tasted spicy on it's way up my throat.
outside the chalet became the drunkards hideout. kind souls who took care of us, while being embraced by the smell of puke stuffing up their noses. the drains unfortunately became our sinks.
noticed a side of jer that i've not seen before. he took care of all of us. mummy jerald. hahaha!
no beds left.
headache spells.
unbearable alcoholic taste lingering in the mouth.
breaths of alcohol.
stinking bodies.
time to head home to sleep, to shower.
got back from chalet.
tired.
craving for hot lipton tea, scrambled eggs. slurps.
made do with bread, and lipton tea. off to bed. steamboat later. =)
hw ended up all alone at the chalet. his mum came with the food, and tidied the place too. always nice to have mummy around isn't it? =) steaming hot steamboat waiting for us. yay!
a monotonous stayover. played heart attack. enthusiastic palms smacking the thousands and millions and zillions of dust particles in the air everytime someone shouted "heart attack!". it became a circus with dust acrobats performing their invisible tricks on the jumping net. our noses suffered. a symphony of sniffs accompanied the victorious roar of "heart attack!".
a night walk for dunno what reason. went for it to clear my nose. felt damn cold upon returning to the chalet. saw a couple of rounds of taidi, slept till morning.
got back from chalet.
sick.
craving for blanket, warm cosy bed. Zzzzz.
i love this chalet. our very own 05 chalet. =)

showertime is the most intimate time for everyone because that's the time people are all alone by themselves. yes. all alone. without clothes on, in an enclosed area.
which makes me wonder what do people normally do in their shower?
of course they are cleaning their bodies.
what is their mind thinking about?
the reason for me entering into such an odd topic is simply because...
my right elbow is hurting.
i accidentally banged it against the tap when i was taking my bath just now.
i awfully hate that dreadful tap. it's jutting out of nowhere. i hate it even more when i am the only member in the family getting injured while having a shower.
my elbow has this stinging pain when i bend my arm. very painful.... =/
i am typing with my arms stretching straight out.
it's tough. at the same time, it improves my eyesight. =)
second week of holidays.
class chalet - wed to fri.
i hope it's fun!!! those who took time organising it, thanks!!!
those coming for it, u took time to come, thanks!!! =D
those not coming for it, u better have a good reason, else, it says so much about our class spirit. THINK!!!
