Cars, cute guys, cars n more cute guys

Initial D is damn nice! I tell you, it's really damn nice! Some girls tell me 'what so nice about it when its all about cars n racing'. I tell you, got love story in it. Jay Chou, of course, is the main character and fell in love with his classmate. The process of them getting together VERY sweet!!!! Guys, learn from this movie. Key point: Take initiative. I was telling my boy this. Me: Later the show start then the cars appear, you don't shout or whistle hor. (I know he will) My boy: Ok, ok. My hand was covering his mouth. The show started. I saw Edison Chen. I almost jumped out of my seat screaming! HE'S DAMN CUTE!!! Anyway, this show is really comical. The plot and everything is so well done. Even little actions that we can see everyday in our life, that happened in the show, can make the whole cinema burst out in laughter. Damn funny. I couldn't sit still throughout the show. Kept shifting my butt cos I laughed til I almost fall off my seat. Oh before I forget. I was waiting at the Jurong East mrt platform before the train arrived so I sat down on their big big marble bench. You know those big rectangular benches? That bench could probably accommodate to slightly more than 10 people without squeezing. I was sitting on the left edge of the bench n there was this girl on the other end of the bench, about 1 metre away. The bench is like a single-sized bed. Behind me were a couple n another man a few butts away. One idiot shoved his butt in, beside me, where there was hardly anymore space left when there were MANY other choices to place his stinky butt on. I had to move towards the center of the bench so he could comfortably sit on the edge. He just pushed me in! How inconsiderate!! Even the girl beside me was staring at his odd behaviour. Inconsiderate people should attend workshops teaching public consideration!

Phones anyone?

I'm getting a new phone soon, I guess. But before I get 1, I'm using a spare phone first. Now, let me see. These are some phone models I have in mind right now. N6670 A rather old model but I liked it when it came out. N6680 A new 3G phone. N6681 6680-look-alike just that it isn't 3G. N70 This should be the 1st 2-megapixel phone-cam. Should be quite ex. If you realised, they are all from Nokia. I've kinda lost faith in Samsung and I don't think other phones suit me. =( Someone please help me choose a phone from all the above. No line, no contract. Empty phone. Or anyone wanna sell it 2nd-hand to me? Or anyone wanna recommend another phone that is big-screened (I'm used to big screens) and has a good camera? Good condition ones, thank you. Best is, anyone wanna buy it for me?? Drop me a msg in msn if you see me. Or send me an email. See ya.

Suayness is contagious

While my classmates are attending lecture in lt24 right now, I'm sitting on my study room chair and blogging simply because I've lost all moods to go to school. Know what? Suayness is freaking contagious man!! I guess Nana jie's suayness passed on to me online... =( Let's just hope she is on her lucky streak now. (Nana jie, do inform me about it ok? ;) ) I'm freaking pissed, tired and angry and irritated and annoyed and frustrated and whatever-you-can think-of. I don't understand why there are forever-not-enough cabs in the morning when everyone's rushing to work (and school, of cos). Then when you don't need them, they are queuing like mad outside shopping centres when not a single soul is standing at the taxi stand. Shouldn't the taxi companies do something about this unavailability of their cabs??? Wait. I shall talk about taxi unavailability later. Let me tell you when I realised I'm suay-ing. It happened almost 2 decades ago. You see... A couple happened to be in need for something then it so happened on that very night. 9 months later, this baby was born gave birth to a baby. This baby was me. Actually my suayness is kinda on-and-off type. Sometimes suay, sometimes not. Shall move on to my recent suay events. Yesterday morning 11.30am, I happily went to school. After school 4.50pm, I was at the bus stop with my classmates. I took my hp out from my bag, wanted to sms my boy. I flipped my phone open... The freaking LCD showed just a white screen! White as in the colour of the words you're reading now. WHITE!! Nothing else except white. (Now it's totally black) I didn't scream, I didn't shout. Deep down inside, I was actually happy that I could get a new phone finally. So I went home with a happy-and-relieved heart. Until my mum came home and I told her about it. Guess what she said? Me: Mummy, my phone spoil already leh. The lcd spoil already. Cannot see anything! Mum: Good what... Like that don't need to use. Save money. (smirks) Me: ... I so wanna cry right now cos my hp died on me. Actually it didn't really die. When you put the upper flap down a lil (approximately 30 degrees from the lower flap: which will give u a V-shape from the side), you can still see a lil. But who the hell msgs with the flap down??? At least the external LCD is still in good condition. I can still see who is calling. My friends, please call me instead of sms-ing to reduce my heartpain ok? And I don't wanna look like a retard trying to sms with the flap down a lil. 1 more thing about getting a new phone. I told mummy that I wanted to get a new phone. Me: miee... I want to buy new handphone leh. Can not? Mum: Your this phone (Samsung E700A) buy that time not cheap hor. Me: But I use 1 year + already. Mum: 1 year + very long meh? Like that must change ar? Me: ... Mummieeee!!! The problem is not whether use long or not. It's spoilt!! Huai le!! Pai liao!! I rather spend the money on a new phone than to repair an old phone. Seriously, I think samsung phones not very durable. Cos my sis also had this phone. Hers spoilt long ago despite we bought it around the same time. Nana jie's phone also like that. Effie's phone also like that. Coincidentally, they are all E700As. The only phone I know that won't die on you so fast is Nokia 3310. Haha the only phone that can survive after countless dropping on the floor. I have that as spare but the vibration isn't really working and I don't wanna use their ringtones. 1stly, they are monophonic. 2ndly, their ringtones suck man. Back to taxi topic. Lecture started at 9am. I woke up at 8 cos I was affected by my handphone incident the previous night that I slept real late. No la. Alot of assignments to do last night. So I wanted to skip the 1st lecture and attend the 2nd at 11am. But I felt guilty about skipping lecture so I got up and prepared. As I was about to leave home, it started raining. I had to get a cab otherwise I would be late. I decided to call for a cab. I called Comfort. I only got a ringing tone on my 3rd attempt. Ring ring. Recorded Operator: Thank you for calling Comfort Taxi blah blah. Our lines are busy at the moment. Please hang on and you'll be attended shortly. 30 secs later... RO: Please hang on and you'll be attended shortly. 10 secs later... Female operator: Good morning. blah blah blah. The fastest cab will only come in 5-10 min. Can I have your name? Me: Rachel FO: So Miss Rachel, where are you now? Me: (told her my location which is home) FO: Ok please hold on while I search for available cabs. Me: Ok, thanks. 30 secs later... RO: I'm sorry. There are no available taxis at the moment. Please press 2 if you want us to continue searching. Press 9 to end this call. Me: (Pressed 2) Ok the above repeated 2 times before I pressed 9. I'm really pissed already. I decided to try my luck by hailing from downstairs. Went down (still raining) and couldn't see any empty cabs. Called my boy to complain and called Citycab. I swear its my suay-est day today!! RO: Please hang on and we'll attend to you shortly (x5) I hung up. ARGH!

Guilty...

2 days back (Monday), I was rushing for a group discussion in school that was supposed to start at 11am. I left home at around 10.45am. Very late. Then on my way to the lrt station, I saw this old man, about 70+, with serious walking difficulties. 10 of our normal walking steps quivalent to his 1 complete step. That's how slow he was. I noticed his facial expression, he was as if in great pain. I told myself to go help him. Or at least go over to ask him whether he needed any help. But all I did was walk on to the lrt station. Guilty struck me. I almost teared on my way to school. And I never felt better after that in school. As I type this entry, I still feel a very strong sense of bitterness, selfishness, guilt, sadness and disturbance all mixed together. This incident actually reminds me of another encounter with an old lady in the mrt. I was with my boy on the mrt a few months back. We boarded the train from either Orchard or Somerset. He had to alight at Toa Payoh to go to his workplace. Ever since we boarded the train, I noticed this old lady, about 60+, leaning on the glass panel near the door. Me n my boy were sitted at the 2-seater and when he alighted, the old lady wanted to occupy his seat but another old man beat her to it. So the poor lady had to stand. What was I doing, u wonder? I sat there, thinking whether to give up my seat or not. I was to sit from Orchard (or Somerset) all the way back to Choa Chu Kang. 18 stops!! The good side of me told me to give up the seat but the tired (and rather bad) side of me told me not to. But eventually, the old lady sat down opposite me when someone else alighted. I felt so guilty that I sms-ed my boy telling him about him. Tears welled up in my eyes. I couldn't bear to look at the old lady. My heart ached terribly. To everyone reading this, please be kind to the elderly. Imagine when u're old and helpless, u would also wish for others to come forward to give u a helping hand. Think about it...

My mother... Haiz...

She has multiple personalities man. Yucks! A moment she can be so nice so nice. The next, she says things that upset u. She hurts ppl VERBALLY!! That's like the deadliest weapon on earth. U can do so many many things but ppl juz ignore u. But when someone says something not-so-nice about u, it hits u like an atomic bomb. It hurts so badly whenever she does that. She doesn't know it. How demoralizing...

I finished reading this particular book in less than a day (Syah, aren't u amazed?). The title is "A Child Called 'It'". Friends who know me well enough know that I dislike reading, esp books that are as thick as a dictionary. It takes me forever to complete the book, or rather, start on the 1st page. I saw Syah reading this book by Dave Pelzer during class n she was telling me how this child was abused by his mother for years. Despite all the perverted tortures his mother performed on him, he still believed that 1 day she will finally treat him better. But slowly, his strength n determination drained out as his mother tried all means to make him suffer. The story has touched my heart n my mind kept flashing images of him getting tortured. Tears dropped as I read on about how the boy actually braved his way through the torment. It makes u wanna continue reading n see what really happened in the end. A pic of how the book looks. Can get it from some libraries only. Image hosted by Photobucket.com I found another cover of this book. See?? USA Today & #1 New York Times Bestseller Image hosted by Photobucket.com I had terrible mood swings yesterday. I simply didn't know what caused it. Juz cried alot over alot of things. Everything was normal after I woke up this morning. Fortunately, there was no class today. E-learning makes my day =) Later in the evening, I'll be meeting my boy for a dinner in town. Meanwhile, I better end this entry n start on some of my tutorials due this week. Take care ppl. Oh 1 more thing... I'm still in the midst of my blog revampment. It will take some time since school is taking up most of my time now. =(
FARK, I HATE MOOD SWINGS!!!
