Yea... i'm in the office..hehehe.. today is the BIG DAY!!

My last day as well as NAFA Arts Kindergarten Open House!!

I will miss the children so much.... and the teachers too...

yah and my principal... sobsob...

They are all very nice people..learnt so much from them...

The school is great..seriously... I have so much fun working with children!

Going to join an international school in July... really excited about it!

hehehe...

Anyway... one day i sat in the principal office to do some power point presentation slide for
the open house..

Costin took a picture of mine! hahaha...

Oh my god.. feels good to be a principal!

probably...maybe...

mmm...... let's finish the monash degree 1st then maybe can consider to take a leardership
course...

so many things i want to do keke..and i don't know what will i end up to be...

I just know that i still have the determination...

Probably will come back on Monday to give some presents for the teachers, principal
and our admin!! if not, she is definitely going to kill me lo.... hahahaha..

I'm truly blessed here... and i know i will always be...=)

wah..... so many parents are here now... i'm sure the school will be very successful in the
future!

Have buffet later... hmmm.. can't wait to go and eat.. and take some pictures with the teachers!
and admin of cuz... hahaha.. if not...

SOB.............. so fun here!

well.. don't think about the workload la... working here is truly enjoyable...

show you guys some pictures!

2006-04-28T18:11:00.000+08:00

How's Life?

I'm sick... flu and cough... Costin made some ge gen tang for me just now.. damn! it worked!!

I told you i enjoy falling sick.. I don't feel sick anymore =(

No more~

Don't like.

Lucky i still have some cough.... precious precious...

Practicum was over and i'm very lazy to complete the final report....

Probably start on sat or sun then... still in holiday mood..you know..

Mum just called.. telling me that i must go for my degree...

Feel kinda sad... cuz she mentioned her friend's son, my friend's brother.. who is much younger than me.. is in NUS now.. and he was from poly...

Sometimes i am still thinking... at this state of my life... why do i end up only a diploma holder?

I shouldnt be.

I'm always proud of my result. I scored well.

I did well for my early childhood course. Family is proud of me but i know my mum starting
to become quite impatient.

Yes.. degree is very important to me.. i will complete it and i swear i will do it.

Everytime she calls, she will ask when am i going to take my degree...

I have mentioned million times... October october october....

When is she going to remember it and stop asking me this question.

In a way, i feel downgraded... from NUS to a private institute.

Well... what will i be in the future?

I work really hard and Costin always says he is very proud of me.

He said i'm just like da chang jin.

But he's wrong. I did give up on my dream.

Maybe....... one day when i don't have much burden... and i have the money to go overseas,
I can continue with my piano studies?

That day at his house... he asked.. what's my dream..?

I used to be so sure of the answer. However at that point of time, i couldn't answer him..

" A lot a lot.." Tears were going to drop actually.

I was not able to fulfil my dream.

I guess i have lost the most important element.

Passion.

Dream needs passion.

And i don't have it right now.

I have passion for children. I thank Lord for this.

Whenever i feel things are going perfectly.. Devil will grab it away from me...

But i know... Daddy is always guiding me. I believe, He has conquered all, the more the
devil takes away from me, the more He will provide.. and more abundantly!

After all these experience, personality starts to change too..

I can feel it.

Or is it because of growing up?

Appearance changed too..

Less pimples. More wrinkles. Damn.

Relationship is going well... just in case you still like me and waiting for us to break up...

haha...No no no... we are the sweetest couple in the world.

I pray that Costin can spend more time with me... but not on computer and tv shows.

Later he is coming to take care of me.. he better... haha.. if not!

Hmmm.... what shall i do to him...

I have quite a lot of ideas now... muahrharhahrhra...

Damn. I really don't feel sick now. No more blocked nose..

No more~

That's not a good news....=(

Oh yea... actually i have quite a lot to blog... hmmm..

- NAFA excursion to Botanic Garden.
- NAFA Dnd.
- My pracitcum pictures.
- Some MOS pictures.

Didn't take many pictures during the Dnd... what a waste.

I like my hair that day... It was blow curly and i have super black hair...

I love it. Thanks Roy.

Yea... if you have any acne/skin problem. Don't hesitate. Visit Joyce Lim Skin and Laser Clinic.

Results guaranteed.

My face is so much smoother now...Thank Lord.

Thinking to make name card for my piano teaching career.

Ok... i will do it right now.

Oh well.. maybe can have some pictures.

and z... i still don't know your blog addresss................

Dear don't mind i put your pic here? hehehe... nice ho!

Boshi.... a very good friend of mine since high school... It's because of him, i scored well during
exam. He taught me a lot and we used to sit together in class. Always chat and never listen to
teacher. A smart guy. He said i'm so matured now.. i mean.. looked matured.

That day met Frankie from Yong Siew Toh.. He said i looked so different now!

Yah... really never bluff you... I'm aging!

At MOS... Fall in love with Chivas green tea.. Thanks Boshi!!

In the washroom.... Need some quiet time huh...

2006-01-14T00:31:00.000+08:00

Another phase of my life..

Officially in NAFA arts kindergarten!!

I love I love I love I love the job!!

It has been a week... and the children are getting closer and closer to me! hahahaha....

Today... a few kids actually rejected to hold the form teacher's hand.. haha..but mine~~~~

You know....... i never know i can love children so much...

When i was in Cristofori teaching the music playgroup... i was not happy.. i don't enjoy myself..
and of cuz.. i don't like the children either...

So i had quite a bad experience dealing with children... they don't seem to be cute at all...pui!!

And when i started my early childhood education course.. i hesitated.... i didn't know whether
this was the right path for me to go...

I learnt a lot through the course... i met good lecturers who shared many experiences with us..

Today... i told my lecturer that i love my job... and she said she was really happy to hear that...

I know i am going to be in love with the job... in love with the children...

Caleb is such a sweet boy... he never stops crying after his mummy has gone....

"MUMMY! MUMMY!!! I WANT MUMMY!!"

He is soooo cute when he cries... he is handsome, quite big size although he is only 2 1/2 years
old...

I will ask.. "Caleb! Where's your handkerchief?!?""

"Inside there (pointing to the pigeon hold where he put his bag, still crying!)"

"Go and take! Wipe your face k!"

and he will go.....after taking his handkerchief.. continue to cry again.. haha...

"I am so tired!!! I want mummy!!"

yea... i love him... he doesn't scare me at all.. i love to play with him and make him smile haha!

He is still young!!! can't blame him for having the seperation anxiety...

Very sweet and lovable boy... when the mummy came to picked him up last time...
He even gave me a hug and a HUGE kiss!! hahaha....

Heard from other parent that although Caleb has been crying throughout the day... he actually
told his parents about what he has done in school... ehehehe....

There are sooooo many more children... i love each of them... and i really miss them now...

I like the way the hug me and kiss me... i love to know that the children trust me...

During my 1st day, there was this troublesome boy... cried like hell after the daddy has left..
The form teacher was then busy comforting him.... i thought he must be damn troublesome...

You know what.... he was so close to me now.... everytime after lesson he will come to me and
say... "Touch you! touch you! touch your face!!"

By the way... he did vomit once on my pants.. before he left the school that day,... we made
a deal that he would be a good boy the next morning...

However... he still struggled a lot when he found out that the father disappeared...

I quickly hugged him and reminded him of our deal.... he hugged me back.. trying his best
to calm down...

I said... "Ian! Give teacher a hug hug!"

He hugged me tightly....

We made a finger movement (to show that he is the best!) and his tears stopped...

I was really happy you know...

I love to know that the children love me..... when i sit down... there will be 2 to 3 kids fighting
for a place on my lap...those crying one.... not crying one....

When i stand up... there will also be children fighting for a chance to hold my hands!

Hahaha..i have got so much things to tell you..

The job is definitely very exciting, interesting, fulfilling and very very meaningful!

I must here thank herlini for bringing me to a world that i have never experienced before..

And yet... it is also the most wonderful experience that i have ever had...

Somehow.. with this skill... i enjoy teaching piano even more...

Yes.. even to the older students... those secondary students...

I found that i become even more patient, loving and encouraging as well...

Yah.. i just got another new student again... introduced by another parents...

She called and said "Kin Luc's mother spoke highly on you.. and i'd like you to teach my
daughter...bla bla.."

Heh heh~ i was really happy to hear that...

Now my time table is really full..

And i am sooooo busy!!! and i am very sleep now.....

Blog again yah~~~

2006-01-06T09:07:00.000+08:00

I AM SOOOOO HIGH NOW!!! NAFA ARTS CALLED!!!!!

Only slept for 3 hours but i'm so excited now!! Daddy answered my prayer! hiak hiak hiak!!

And probably, this is the road he has been prepared me to go!

I feel that... i'm on the right track now... hahaha!

My heart is sooooo joyful now!

Anyway... i'm going down to eastcoast later... probably have to stay at my cousin's house in the
future.. but not everyday... maybe go down sunday nite.. cuz their house just opposite the
school! it's a 5 mins walk hahaha!! good rite?!!?!

Cuz i gotta start work on next Monday!!! Monday to Friday 8am-1pm..

Oh man... how to wake up at 6am!?? it's still sooo dark... and it's the best time for me to sleep
too.....

But i guess it's ok... cuz always got alarm clock from downstairs...

By the way it's the the the the real alarm clock...

It's their pik piak sound hahahaa! yea yea.. they like to have sex at 6am!!

It used to wake me up cuz it's really loud... but recently i sleep very well so only hear

But i don't really mind if it's bit low compared to others.. the most impt thing is what they
teach the children besides common subjects!

MUSIC, ARTS and DANCING!!!!

isn't it great?!?!!

This is from their website!

NAFA Arts Kindergarten is the only arts kindergarten in Singapore that emphasis on arts education for the young children.

Our Philosophy
-Children are born to be creative. Creativity can be nurtured and cultivated at a very young age. Therefore, arts and music are integral parts of our basic curriculum.

As children learn best through hands-on experiences, NAFA Arts Kindergarten strives to provide fun learning, holistic and all-round approaches for the children.

Our Goals
-Our goal is to inspire children’s interest in arts, and to foster an attitude and custom of arts appreciation and expression that will enrich their entire lifetime.

Our Programme
-Arts and music are the major components in the curriculum. Hence, arts and music lessons are conducted daily.
-In addition to the arts and music lessons, the 3 - hours curriculum of NAFA Arts Kindergarten is planned according to the following six key principles under-pinning the MOE curriculum framework:
-A holistic approach to development and learning
-Integrated learning
-Children as active learners
-Adults as interested supporters in learningl
-Interactive learning
-Playing as a medium for learningMusic

("M Box")
-The “ M Box ” programme will be organised in NAFA Arts Kindergarten twice weekly.
-“M Box” is a holistic music programme designed for NAFA Arts Kindergarten by Singapore accomplished musician & much sought-after composer, music arranger, conductor & orchestrator, Iskandar Ismail. Iskandar has a distinguished career as Music Director / Composer/Arranger for National Day Parade (NDP) and Chingay for 10 years, the Singapore Youth Festival and Singapore Idol 2004. His works include spectacular musical performance “ Chang & Eng ” & “Snow Wolf Lake” starring Jackie Cheung.

In the programme, every child will be exposed to elements such as
-Music Appreciation
-Rhythm Trainingl Notation
-Theoryl Ear Training
-Orchestration
-Keyboard Performance
-Ensemble

These will induce the development of
-Harmony
-Pitch

-It will be conducted 2 times per week with activities such as drawing, painting and craft making to acquire and develop artistic skills.
-The lessons are taught by our professional teachers from the Junior Art Department of NAFA.

Dance
-Once a week of dance programme will help the children discover their bodies in new ways as it provides the pleasure of movement, rhythm and co-ordination.
-Body movement enhances kinetics development as well as stimulates brain growth and intellectual development of the young child.
-This programme is choreographed by our experienced dance instructor.

but his face with that body is totally a DISASTER!! my god!!

for goodness sake he must really do sth about it.... how can he neglect that most impt part???

He is an ugly man.... with thick make up...... and i mean.... UGLY... really......

Long face, dark skin on his face... i guess he did bleaching on his body but not his face....

HOW CAN?!?!?!?

I was sooooo shocked and burst out laughing... and i see the reason why ppl laughed after
looking at her...

Well, i did admire him for some reason...

HE is very confident!!!!! and happy to be what he is now....

Wahahhaa.. if only i can be as confident as he is.....!!!

I didn't get drunk! i went to see fireworks hehehe....but when i returned, my friends were
puking outside!!! so poor thing..... how i wish i can have fun with them in the club...
didn't even dance with them hahaha...

Oh yea.... it's Ministry of Sound.... and they promised to go with me again.. hehehe...

Well, thanks Zachary's friend for buying the pre-sell tickets for us! We don't even need to queue!

Well, the place is just soooooooo god damn coool... it's one of the coolest place i've ever been!

Met one of the MOMO bartender...we actually chatted for a while since the place is quite
empty still....=)

Also another thing... last year i made a wish during Christmas service...

That my complexion will be better...that my relationship will be sweeter and better ( which
was already good k... haha..)... and that about my music....

Well, believe it or not, God provides me with everything i wish for!

Without more students, i will not earn more money.

Without more money, i will not have the money to see a good dermatologist...

After 2 more months, i will finish the course, and probably don't need to eat antibiotics anymore!

but i'm very used to eat it after my lunch le.. hahaha...

also very used to putting on cream after cream before i go out, and before i sleep...

Well, if you see me often putting on make up.. it's becuz of the cream... if not, my face will look
very shiny and oily... so i need some foundation to help me on that.... hehe...

school in town... can't go out with a shiny face rite... look so oily hahaha...bleah!

anyway... about my music... finally i'm enjoying my music now.....

real enjoyment.

purely entertaining, relaxing... and i love to play music which will touch ppl's heart...

It might not be your taste... but when my brother heard one of the song...

he immediately went to download it... and said if one day, i have the chance to play in a
hotel, or in a function....

when the themes come in ( simple tune with simple accompaniment).... he said it's simply
stunning... and everybody will be looking at me... hahaha...

Well, at times, it's good to imagine things like this...

man...... school starts tmr.... yet i still in holiday mood...

GO GO jia you!! (did you watch romance full house?! anyone of you?)

GO GO JIA YOU!!!

I LOVE RAIN!!

Back From Malaysia

One week holiday! how fun hahaha....!

Parents came to Sg for Christmas celebration... and my mum cooked fish for me everyday!!

I don't like fish....... i scared of bones... and i don;t like the texture..

But i only eat the fish my mum cook... which is oily haha! and with soy sauce under the fish...

Nice rite?

Wat else.... she has been sick too... coughed a lot...

Now only my parents staying in Malaysia... with a taiwanese boy at home with them..
haha of cuz they get paid for taking care of him... 2 years later the boy will be 18 and
i guess he will return to taiwan... then my parents can come over!! cook the oily fish
everyday haha.. i really don't mind to eat that... it's very very nice oh!

then.... i think they become sweeter as well... after christmas.. i went back home with them..
i discovered something.. which is quite sweet..

my mum complained to me and my brother in the car...

Mum: I asked papa whether he will feel painful when he saw me cough so much, and he said
"HUO GAI!!!" (you deserve it!!)

but then... when my mum was coughing badly... my dad made some tea (dunno wat's tt)
for her!!

I saw... and commented.. haha..

me: See???? wahhhhh.... papa so concern of you!!

then mama said : hahaha! you think he made for me ah!?!?! he himself want to drink lo!!

it's very funny... and everybody laughed..

In malaysia, i basically sleep, eat, watch dvd, eat, sleep, of cuz i read newspapers!!

And my parents never wake me up... they just said... let her sleep...

and when i woke up.. mum asked : Xing fu ma??? Sleep until so nice ho??

So good!!! then when my dog saw me... he JUMPED SO HIGH!!

hahaha.... i miss him so much too................

you know there's one nite... it was raining... then i opened the backdoor.. he was
there waiting for me....

He put his head through the hole of the door... and i put my nose right in front of his...
so sweet rite...

then he closed his eyes..... i kept on calling his names and i closed my eyes..

We never moved for quite some time..

definitely... i felt love between us....

Brownie really love me you know...............

i got more and more students nowadays... in total... 12 now.. and next month.. 4 more new
students... and i guess in feb i will have another 3 more...

19 students!!!

I actually made a target few years ago... i want to get 20 students once i graduate..

Well... sort of achieve rite... hehe...

i just sent an email to NAFA arts kindergarten... hopefully i'm qualified to teach there..
since i will get my diploma in early childhood education in few months time!!

then i will start my practicumn till april... maybe i will take a short break after that...
finally can go travelling with Costin...save money save money!

Cool la.. now everything seems to settle down.. and i can see my future again...

Anyway... they are all cleared now!! hahahhaha... Currently doing music and movement course..

How fun!! rite herlini???

Sigh... hope i am still able to strike at least an A....

I have been counting.... when will i graduate??

Well.. FEW MONTHS TIME!!!

i will start working next year march!! so fast rite????

Then i will get a stable income.. hehehhee....

I still like to plan.... i found out.. hahaha..... but of cuz... now i learnt not to be too idealistic..

Life is just full of changes...

But sometimes we really need to plan...

Now i am teaching piano almost every night...except Sunday will be my rest day...

After the course, probably i will work in a kindergarten... i can't wait to work with the children..

First time oh!!! hehehe....

Working in kindergarten during daytime and i will teach my piano students at night....

saturday half day teaching in kindergarten and teach piano the rest of the day...

Sunday rest.. church...

Wah.. so havoc huh!

But i will not drop any of my piano students.... i will not!

I love to teach piano... plus... it's really good money...

I have a dream... i want to make my future home a piano studio...

I want to have a grand piano in the living room... on a mini platform...

then i will be able to hold concert for my students... hehehe... how fun?

I want to teach in groups... for children.. so they can do music and movement together...!

i want to implement what i have learnt in this course in my teaching career in the future...

I want to make teaching materials for the young piano students...

Maybe one day, i am able to find a shop who can help me make the materials??

I will come out with my own teaching materials!! wah how coool is tt?

first of all... i will make the materials on my own 1st....

ok stop dreaming now... but all of these are possible k? hehehe..

i will work hard... cuz i already know what i want to do in my life...

I'm glad that i have come out from the darkest point of my life... finally...

There was even one time... when Costin told me that he did not know who he was talking to..

Cuz i sort of lost myself too...i was not as bubbly as cheerful as before...

But i think i am happy now... hehe..

Herlini the pretty is even prettier now cuz she dyed her hair brownish! haha

Herlini the prettier... i prayed that we will have a super bright ( until we cannot open our
eyes) future... comfortable life (remmember our high tea and shopping, maybe a massage)
during our off day... haha...may we work well together with the management ppl and bring the
best out from the children... may you find a good bf who is strong, intelligent, loving, fun and
adventurous, plus handsome and knows how to treat you well.. because i think you are a
very special girl hahaha...

Heh heh... we will be good... very good!

Can hold concert together next time! hahahah...

2005-11-20T01:58:00.000+08:00

HaPpiLy AtTaChED!!

Heh heh.... what a month to be in love...!!!

Somebody is liking someone.... yes you!! you!! haha! Go and tell her! or.. tell him!!!

How nice right..the feeling of liking someone....and yet you don't know how he/she thinks of you..

I'm over that period... i know Costin loves me and he knows i love him... ehhhh.... how to guess??

Well....

What if he/she says.. "mmm.....errr....yea.... i like you too...."

HOW NICE!!!!!!!!

What if he/she says.."thanks..errr... but....no.... i'm so sorry...maybe it's not the right time.."

Haha! you are scared of the negative reply rite...... i know! of cuz we all do.... haha...

But... by telling them how we feel..we don't lose anything do we? lose face only ma..... haha!

I've modelled quite a lot of times haven't i? =D

In a way i'm proud of myself too... cuz i really have the courage to tell someone that i like him..

Face to face.. i did.

ICQ i did twice.. hahahahahaha!!! sounded so desperate rite.... heh heh but i was not k...

I just like them....

But now i didn't understand why i like them....*puzzled*

PUI BLEAH PUI PUI PUI OOEEERRRRR!!!

Errr.... are they reading my blog ah.... emmm... i guess not....

Costin told me face to face oh!!! APPLAUSE TO COSTIN!! *piak piak piak*

You! If you are a guy...

PLS!!! tell her face to face... don't use sms, or msn, or whatever...

Win her by your action... not by typing... must have the courage! tsk tsk!!

ok ok... what a girl wants?

Ok girls... wat do we want?

if anything you wanna add... put it at my tagboard k....

What do we expect from a guy who is trying to get us?

ok.. from my point of view..

(1) Firstly... he must meet my basic criteria.. (very subjective.. it depends on the girl... some
girls do look for rich guy... have cars.. you know..but definitely not me!!! )

(2) So.. to be impressive.. you better dress up neatly if you are going to PURPOSELY bump
into you dream girl!
Appearance do count... and if you are sloppy... forget it! Style your hair, cut your nails..
YES YES!!!! i nearly forgot... the nose hair!! hahaha i so farni~~ Leg hair can be sexy so
don't worry.... what else.. armpit hair can be man too.... but... yes... if you have adour..
emmmm... go watson to buy deodorant 1st... oh man i starting to become cock... yah you
know what i mean la.... just be neat, clean and presentable...=) I personally find those man
in proper attire very attractive and charming....and... why don't you try my favourite
man's perfume? Dunhill.... what blue... herli i forgot... hahaa.. ocean blue??? I will melt...
HAHA!!

(3)What else... Mentally strong and physically able to protect you... i won't want a guy who is
40kg waist 22.... hahaha....Mentally strong la... you know... i know.. you know...

(4) If happens to go for movie or dinner... LEAD her... get through the crowd by LEADING her..
always turn back to look at her..make sure that she follows you... ( don't hold her hand first..
if tt's not the right time...use your brain la!! if it's time! GRAB IT!!!!!!!!!)

(5) Yea.. be cocky and make her laugh... can go online find those qian bian questions... at least..
you can impress me with your cold jokes.. hahaha...i totally love them!

(6) Be polite... esp if her friends or family are around... sounds fake rite... but i know you guys!
You will give her 200% of effort during courtship... after attached.. good you still have 100%,
but most probably left only 30%.... cheh!! PUI!!

(7) Open doors for her/other ppl.. esp old ppl or needy... Give up seat in train for elderly too...

(8) Listen to her.. although you find the topic damn boring because it's nothing to do with Dota
or other games... guys... tsk tsk...

(9) Don't be shy. Always look into her eyes when speaking to her... look INTO her eyes..
ok... if her mascara is dropping off or got bak sai... don't tell her... heh... 1st stage don't tell
her... it's quite embarrasing... maybe find a chance to go washroom? I bet she will be aware
of that... later stage... just use your hand and touch her eye area... awwww... soo sweet!
Even if you wanna use a tissue.. it's fine too!!

(10) Be sensitive and caring... but not OVER caring and OVER sensitive... sometimes...
bochup a bit... you know i know you know.....

(11) IF going for a dinner... recommend the dishes for her... if you don't know.. ask the waiter
in front of her... don't ever say.. " You decide lo...i anything..." What a big turn off!!

(12) Be humurous rite just now i mentioned... but at times... when it comes to deeper
conversation.. be serious and LISTEN to her.... a time to talk heart to heart.. a time for
you to touch her heart....

(13) If she's crying... don't juz pat her back.... "eh... don't cry la...."
If i were you... i will... how... sit nearer...put my arms on her shoulder and hug her tight..
give her tissue?? actually don't need... just use your hand and clear her tears...
and say things like... "I'm in pain when i see you cry....." OH MY GOD!!!!! i'm melting~

(14) Send her home of cuz... tt's for sure...even if she says "no" when girls say "no" it's actually
"yes".... when you ask her... "are you hungry?" if she says "no"... then remember.. she is
hungry.. haha! not saying that it happens to me la.. i read it somewhere one k... haha!

(15) If she needs anything that is urgent... try your best to get the thing for her...
Costin did that to me lots of time..... like when i need eye lotion.. he will run to 7-11 just to
get it for me... i felt nice when i saw him coming back in sweat and breathing hard.... haha!
He cares for me and i will know...

(16) Care for her siblings and family.

(17) Don't call her too many times a day!! It's irritating... one call and few msges will do...

(18) Bring her to places which has nice atmosphere.. like a bar...alleybar?!?!?! cool place rite?
where you two can talk heart to heart...

(19) Tell her about your past......

(20) Anything you wanna add... hehe... Accompany her for shopping!!! and if she really looks
awful in the dress or whatever.. tell her that "it's not suitable.. maybe you can try......."
don't just say "yes yes yes nice nice nice... " like maria " Yes mum.." "Yes mum.." tsk tsk...

Tt's all i can think for now....hmmm anything to add?!?!?!

I cried when i was watching Love Actually..... it was just sooo sweet...

Love is everywhere...... everywhere..

. .
. .
. .
. .
. .
. .

of cuz... how about those abused children...

Really very sad.....sigh....

2005-11-11T22:57:00.000+08:00

The Exorcism of Emily Rose

Have you watched?

Do you believe?

Demon possesed or Epilepsy??

I did some online research... and the result is still about medication thingy...

Articles claim that the gal might be alive if proper medication was given...

Anyway... talk about my own experience..

Hey it's a good news anyway... i stop having those nightmares!! for quite some time.. haa!

I dunno whether to say it here... or not...

Nvm rite...actually.. hmm..

I told Costin and Jo about it already..

3 am.

Coincidence? hopefully....

Many years back, i started to encounter weird dreams and heard weird things...

The very very first time, it was at 3am sharp.

And i still remembered the clock "dong" for 3 times...

I woke up. I heard footsteps outside the room.. in a hurried manner, climbed up the staircase,
and running around the back garden.

The footsteps were really really clear.. i thought who!??

Well, i actually sat up to listen.. wanted to look out from the window but dare not to..

Saw my eldest brother sleeping soundly beside me..

Well..my heart beating real fast..

Covered my blanket and forced myself to sleep..

Anyway.. the next day.. i told my parents about it in the car..

Papa asked me not to think too much.. and said it's him who went out to smoke.

Running and smoking?!?!?!

Well... i guessed he was just conforting me..

Anyway.... after few more weird dreams... my parents brought me to see those spiritual ppl
( what do i call them??? i dunno eh..) yea.... and my mum also chanted in my room.

Many years later.... the condition is sooo much better.

The attack was less. really.

In fact, i was told by Holy Spirit to speak this certain tongue when i got attacked.

It helps.

Eh.... you mind reading? quite spooky ho... if not comfortable then dun read lei... so sorry...

One time, when i was attacked back home in msia... Immediately i spoke the tongue.

Man... the attack became stronger.. fiercer.. i felt something beside me.. really..

My teeth was then forced to shut tight... and i was NOT ABLE TO speak out the words!

Terrible feeling.. the teeth became tighter and tighter...

but still.. the tongue moved within.

All of a sudden, the force went off and i was extremely exhausted.

It was a battle.

I struggled to get up and told my parents about it.. as usual..

"Pa, ma... again....!!"

Then they would ask me what happened..

Well... second time..i was nearly attacked in Singapore, same thing, i spoke the tongue,
by the way, I was not attacked yet.. I just felt that the thing was coming...
right when i felt it, something beat my leg! and i woke up.. hence never attacked haha..

Well, people come out with all sorts of scientific explanations...

It's really up to you of how you think...

again.. spiritual affairs... the debate is on-going isn't it..

Well... let's don't talk about this anymore.. i'm scared.. later i'm going to sleep alone eh...

.........................

I just wanna spill this out.. have been in my heart for so long...

Only i understand.

If you don't understand.. also don't bother to guess la..

but who knows? maybe you know...

Only 2 words.... really deeeeeep from my heart...

how... i'm revealing my deepest thought here..

One spirit.

I strongly disagreed with this years ago.

Now i understand.

And i am sorry to have said harsh words on you. Did i? i kinda forgot.. even if it's not harsh..
nothing good too...

Can you understand how i feel?

How

I

Hope

You

Can

Understand

Me

More.....

bleah... No one shall ask me what I am writing about.

But if you ask me, i probably will tell you too... haha..

you know me....

i dunno la..

Anyway... dying to get me ipod video on 21st!!! HAHAHA!!

hmm.. talk about Costin.. hey you... yea you... his friends... you guys read my blog?!!?

He said he's paiseh le.... haha... when i wrote things about him.

hehehee...

Me and Costin have been together for 2 years and 7 months!

Isn't it just soooo fast?

Can't believe that we are still together..

I never thought that this relationship could work so well...

you know.. i was once very insecure and unfamiliar with this guy...

I have a good impression of him.. kinda like him.. but...not really sure and...

NO TRUST.

but... praise God.. look at us now....

How did you make me love you so?

I don't think you have done anything to please me... you are just being yourself..

And i was pampered by this guy....

He was pampered by me too la... haha...

Anyway.. i find myself being so cock nowadays....

why ah?

I once lost this "siao" character of mine..

heh heh.... i love this feeling...a feeling that you have lost for long...

Just like how i love to play the piano now....

Just now i played a while... it was a very very nice feeling...

So in peace.....

I want to make a wish.

We will be successful women in the future.

Be it in career or in our family.

May we have a super wonderful family, good husband and brilliant kids.

We will earn our living as a tai tai. hahahaha!

May we be able to enjoy spa and message and anti aging treatment always.

Not by using our husbands' money.

because we do not need to.

because they will pay for others which cost even more!

MUAHRHARAHHAHRHA!!

nolar... we don't need to because we will be financially independent.

However.... our husbands will always insist to pay for us. emm! yes yes....

because they love us so much that they will do anything for us, to pamper us.

Of cuz, the quality of the relationship will be good even until the day we all are old....

Today, when i'm 23...

I make a wish.

That me and Costin will have a wonderful future.

That he will cherish me.

That he will love me till the day we die.

That he will still love me when we meet in heaven.

An eternity.

Last year, i wished for quite a few...

Sob...

I dreamt and i cried..

Costin died... errr..... in mud.... (weird huh?)

I remember.. we were all running for our lives.. and we were together..

All of a sudden, he disappeared.. People told me that he has died and dragged me to run..

I kept on crying....

Few days later... In a party...

I missed him sooo much... i couldn't believe that Costin had left me...

Kept on crying...

Look into the mirror... my friend told me that he would come back...

I looked into the mirror.. i saw him... he hugged me from behind and i could feel his touch..

Me and friend were asked to dance in the party.. but there were only 3 of us..

and i said " I can pretend to dance with somebody!"

I danced with Costin....

It was sooooo romantic in the dream... really really....

I was sad because i knew that he was a ghost...

I was happy because i knew that he was still with me...

Friend told me that "the heaven" made a mistake.. it's not his time yet... haha..

Then he came back to life!!!

Cool ho???

Then happily ever after!

muahrharhahrhar... so farni!

Sorry didn't update for long....

What have i been doing?? hmmmm....

Lessons.. teaching piano... shopping... club for one nite... wat else...

Haha... pretty good life!!

I like the school timing.. 2-6pm... which means i can wake up late.. and still...
I can have my own time at night.. coool isn't it.. hehe..

Have been shopping haven't i?? Well... the bad thing about studying in town haha!

But i'm really quite sick of Orchard road.. bleh...

I'm broke..!!!! No matter wat... i'm going to squeeze 500 for dbs loan next mth!!

hahaha...debts are killersssssssssssssssss!!

I think i will blog more often... maybe just a short one everyday... hehehe..

That nite at momo club was quite fun~~ Went with herlini the pretty babe...

anyway! good news!

My piano students result were out!

My gd 8 students did well~~ i'm really proud of them.. although they scrude up
in their aural... but... we were running out of time to be more prepared for aural..
sigh..i think i need to improve on this next time..

i focused quite a lot in their pieces and scales... and guess what they get??

18-19/21 for scales!! hiak hiak.... hard work pays you see..

pieces one of them even get 27/30, 25/30 and 27/30 for the three pieces!

Well.. i'm really proud of her... she even got better result than me when i was
doing my gd 8!!! i'm happy happy happy!!!

Lois has completed her gd 8 too... she did a good job for her pieces too~~~

Proud of her.. hehe..

another gd 3 student.. he got 29/30 for one of the pieces..great rite???

I'm really glad... i can see improvements in my students' playing..

there's really soooo much difference compared to the 1st time i met them..

Everything has become more firm and solid.. more musical and expressive..

heh heh... i want to do more!!

I want to have my own studio.. I need to have one grand in the living room..
and 3 uprights in the rooms... I might not hire piano teachers to teach for me..
I'd rather do it myself...haha..i wanna make it a homely studio instead of the
commercialized business....

I dont want to be a business woman.. i think i'm more suitable to be a professional
piano teacher.. well... teaching piano is a profession.. ok.... hehehe..

I want to teach whatever i know to my students...

You know wat... i really enjoy teaching gd 8 theory now...

I am helping alfred, my friend right now for his gd 8 theory!!

Theory is soooooo much fun!!!!!!!

And today i juz went to teach in bishan... the boy is fast...

Today was the 5th lesson.. and he is able to coordinate his both hands...

And he could play with both hands now!! He struggled a little bit when he first
tried the coordination part.. but he got the idea real fast.. haha!

Cool ha!!

I've been teaching for....7 years!!

While my students are learning from me.. i'm learning how to teach them better
as well...

I think i'm starting to have an idea how to teach younger kids.. and how to
provide them with really strong basics..

You know the boy... i never ever once... asked him to write down letter names
on top of the notes.... which i always did..

And today.. the 5th lesson, he could identify C D E F G notes for right hand and
left hands!!

I really think this is quite good... and he COUNTS when he plays!!

normally children will just tell me.. I can't count!! it's confusing!!

But i'm staring to know.. how to teach..... and they learn fast.

and Yi le really practises now... how cool is that?

I love my students! They are my friends too... don't mind shopping together Lois
and Joy?

Hahaha.... wah so late le.. gotta go do laundry.. blog again soon~~

Hopefully........

A Quarrel with Costin... sobsob..

Share this.

Something nice... hee..

The quarrel started from the topic of getting an mp3 player for my coming birthday.

I desired for an mp3 player for very very very long...

I wanted an ipod for long.. but i don't want to spend so much money...

When ipod nano came out, i was stunned and i really love it!!! It is just sooooo cool isn't it??

But sooner, i think ipod mini is good enough...since the price also dropped to 200+++

Yet, i think i river is more worth the money if i go for the function instead of the "look"...

We were talking over the phone....

"Today i saw this samsung 6 in 1 mp3 player!!!! got FM mp3 1 GB bla bla... "
He was very excited when he told me.. and he was really going to buy for me on the spot when
he saw this good deal.. about 180++

I was unhappy. Instead of appreciate of his action...

"Huh??? 1 GB?? dear.. it's too little! i want i river.. it has 5 GB!"

so the conversation went on with a little bit fire... we were no longer talking in sweet mode.

" Why do you need 5 GB? how many songs can you listen a day???? bla bla.. "
and he started to listed out all the FACTS ( which i really hate to hear.. although he likes
to talk about those facts) then he started counting the batteries life, how many hours..
how many songs... so as to conclude that 5 GB has no reason at all!!

"ok ok.. tell me how many songs you want to put in.. how many songs do you have in your
laptop." i know.. he was just helping me to get a better deal..

well...HOW DO I KNOW?? i just know that i have a lot of songs to listen to.. i am a pianist.

I insisted on 5 GB.

He was very pek cek then...

The conversation went to a 20 GB mp3 player.

"well, since you want to store soooo many songs, then you go and get an 20 GB one la! "

" 20 GB is definitely too much for me! i don't need so much! i don't need to store 5000 over
songs! i justneed a moderate one will do.. 1000-1500 is fine for me already! but not 250.."

Then the quarrel went on.

He was very aggressive. He was super good in reasoning. He went online and check for all
the functions and facts. I dun want to continue anymore.

I stoppped.

"I'm tired i'm going to sleep bye bye."

"bye bye"

Of cuz.. this is not the way we used to solve our conflicts.

then i started to msg him...

and he told me that he was very pek cek because i am not able to give him any REASON to
support the fact that i need a 5 GB mp3 player...

and i was telling him the reason why i don't want to get a 20GB is because i don't see a need,
and i want to save money... but all of these are not considered reason to him.

Maybe.. they are not facts at all..

So he was saying..he give up.. and of cuz...things like.. "I don't want to buy things for you anymore"

i was sad. because this is not the 1st time.

when he was trying to surprise me.. i was always not home..

and he was very disappointed and said "i don't feel like surprising you anymore!"

when it comes to planning.. i always show negative feelings.. because i don't know about my
future.. and i try not to plan because life changes so fast..anything can happen...

He was trying very hard to cheer me up on the topic of my future..

Talking about my future and our future...

Yes i was not being very supportive and i did not cheer up at all...

so he said "i don't want to plan for you anymore.. "

You know... he is tired already... my fault.

When he came to surprise me, i apologized and said thank you and i rushed off with my brother
or met my friends...

I thought a sorry and a thank you from my heart would let him feel better..
but i was wrong... i shouldn't have rushed off and said a quick bye bye to him.. i should have
talked to him longer over the phone...

back to yesterday nite...

When he was telling me about the samsaung mp3 player...

I should have shown more appreciation..

I never.

you know... i just said what was in my mind... at that point of time.. i just don't like it.

and Costin was very nice... he taught me how i should react next time..

instead of showing negative feelings.. i should..

"thank you dear.. for thinking of buying the mp3 player for me... i know it's very good.. but
i think i still prefer i river..... because... "

come to the because.......

When he showed me all the facts. i really got nothing to say.

He was sooo good at reasoning that i was always at the lose.

" Everytime when it comes to reasoning.. you always win! because you are so good at it!
I don't know how to reason! i can only say what i feel..i don't have any facts to back up my
i river! "

So i started crying because i felt that he was always right... he was so strict with me...
And i was really tired..and i never scolded him before.. but he did.

I want to have my say. why does he always want me to follow his decision?

Man's ego???

Both of us were tired.. but break up never ever came to our mouth..

because we love each other so much.

So silly rite.. quarrel over an mp3 player.

Seems that.. he is always the right one.. hmph...

and he told me why he needs to be strict with me....

" When 2 ppl are together... if one of them is weak at controlling at spending money..The other
party must be firm and strict.. if not, how are we going to save money for future?"

Well.. he is absolutely right.. we can't just spend and spend and spend..

at the end of the day, when we need to get married, or buy house and car, we have no money..

Somemore, i need to repay my loan and save money for my education too..

I'm no longer having scholarship you see...

He is right..

If not him... i wouldn't have saved so much money..

I paid 500 for bank loan this month, as well as 500 for my brother cuz he helped me on my
school fees.

I wouldn't have done so if i never changed my habit of spending money.

He influenced me on this.. and i am truly very very grateful.

Now i can say... i feel that i'm rich.. because i know how to save.

It's because of the fact that i save.. that's why i am rich.

and i am rich... because i have Costin.

Then.. i started to pour out my feelings of why i want to get iriver...

"i was so excited when i see ipod nano!!! but because i wanted to save money.. i decided to
go for ipod mini since the price also dropped... but come to think of the functions, i decided
to go for i river instead of "look".. i even go online and check for the functions, which i don't
think i would do this if it were the old me..... i would just be.. oh i like it and i buy it!!... i
thought this is a big improvement in me already....you know i love stylo things... i would
have just bought the ipod.. but i never!! i decided to get sth that is less good looking but has
more functions.. you know...i hope to get sth that i really like it from my heart..you know in
a way.. i go for looks too...i love stylo things.. but i have already compromised to get an
iriver..."

then he said...

"i know you are not good at reasoning... but you have a weapon which is 100000000 times
stronger than me! you guess what is it? "

"hmmm.. cry? " we were in the sweet mode again..

"no la!! "

" sajiao??"

"NO NO NO!! it's your feeling dear... you don't need to reason about the facts like i did..
if you just told me that.." dear, i go for my feelings and i really want to get sth that i really like
it from my heart..." and you will win!!! i would have nothing so say!! haha.."

So we both came to a conclusion that...

We have to communicate more... in our own way... i don't need to be carried away by his
reasons and factors.

If i always do things by feelings... reason it with my feelings...

And i know next time... i will appreciate him more....

He has done so many things for me... i will not take anything for granted...

Dear dear i love you.

Thank you for the quarrel yesterday.

It was a nice one..... =)

2005-09-14T00:29:00.000+08:00

What a wonderful nite!!!

hehe.. i'm blogging again!!

I miss blogging.. really.. especially when there's sth special in my life...

All my memories!!

I'm still very excited! went to ktv with my early childhood education coursemates!

It has been a really long time since i laughed so much! and i really really enjoy myself..

Thanks girls!

And i realised, i'm happy.

Still.

I have high school friends, i have hostel friends, i have music friends, and now i'm having new
bunch of friends from early childhood education course!

sorry.. i didn't include friends from chemical engineering...

We are less than friends i think..

Sometimes, people forget about people...

come to think of it.. although i have left music course.. friends there are different!

At least, i feel that, i am cherished to be their friend.

" I miss you~~~~~~ " Linda always said this to me! or...

" You forget about me le~~~~ " in a sa jiao manner.. hahaha..

When we had gatherings, we hugged, we laughed, and full of fun!

Well.. i don't see this happen between me and my chem eng coursemates.

There's no friendship. We are pure coursemates.

Hi hi bye bye friends.

We are no longer in contact.

Well, life goes on.

But i do remember them.. some of them.. like Ling jie and Justin.

And Robin, my ex bf... shit!!!! he was my bf!!!

OH MAN~~~~~~~

what the hell was i thinking?!?!?!??!?!??

guys were all jerks during that time! rite jo??? haha..

i remember slapping a lot of guys when i was drunk hahaha..

and yes i remember.. chen peng, my crush was on the same cab sending me home..

Jo, me, justin and chen peng..

and i slapped justin.

All jerks!

It took time for me to discover.. actually there are still good guys around me..

even when i started with Costin..

I judged him as a bad guy.. how bad rite? to judge a person like this haha..

I will do it no more.

And i told him to prove it to me.

And now, in my eyes, he is just so wonderful... =)

there are many little things in a relationship.. that are very sweet.. it's just a matter whether
you want to take it for granted?? or you appreciate it from your heart..

Costin always helps me to wipe my mouth using his handkerchief ( yes he is using handherchief!! ) everytime after we have our meal..

I think this is very sweet.

I always feel like a little girl when he does so...

He always gives me chicken skin.. and i always love him more after he gives me...

serious.

I love fattening food like chicken skin and pig's fat.

There goes my little tummy! hahaha...

anyway.. that's not the topic for today..

Oh yea.. my FRIENDS in early childhood education...

When i was showering just now... i was bit sad...

Because some of them.. are graduating this coming november...

I will really miss them a lot.. Lisa and Veron..T_T

I'm really happy to know these girls..

Pearlyna jie jie.. Veron, herlini, hazel and lisa mei mei...

It's really fun to discuss all the beauty tips and slimming tips with you guys... haha..

Well, and lisa you have already seen my naked body sobsob.. although we only knew
each other less than one month hahaha..

you must be guessing... HOW COME!?!??!

well we went for a trial slimming programme at park mall..herlini, hazel and me.. just for fun!

The towel which was covering my boobs dropped off!!

Hell!!! I was screaming!!

and the lady wrapping me said " i never see! i never see!!! it was too fast too sudden!!"

PI GU!!

sooooooooo pai seh!!!!

Today.. we learnt about personal development and were made to think what's our values in life.

My value.

That i must be true to my friend, my family..

That i will appreciate everyone of them to be part of my life...

Don't give up on things that you have decided to do.

Try you best before you give up.

I never give up on my music course. I have tried my best.

I know what i want to be. I want to teach. i love teaching.

I love to teach music.

I want to start teaching my baby music after 13 weeks in my womb.

because the baby can hear.

The baby can hear my voice too.

Try this.

Always sing a certain song to your baby.. of cuz those soothing gentle one la not techno or rock k!

Just keep on singing and repeating for a period of time.

yay the baby is born..!!

one day, the baby starts to cry non stop .. sing the song again.. the baby will stop crying!

because he has heard that before!!

anyway.. i'm drifted away from my topic again..

yah yah.. my values.

Also.. Don't kill ants.

You know they have no defensive skills under your gigantic hands...

Why do you kill??

I don't know... i think i'm born with the spirit of empathy towards a lot of things..

I shared this in class rite?

When i was 5-6.. i talked to the mango tree in front of my house.

One evening, i saw liquid leaking from the tree trunk.

I was so sad.... i looked at the "wound" and started talking to the tree..

"........ ni shou shang le? (were you hurt?) wei shen me ni shou shang le? (why were you hurt?)"

and i remember i was forcing my tears out... to enhance the atmosphere.. so stupid rite!

mum shouted!!

" MEI!! COME AND EAT!! "

" oh oh!! okie.. ming tian wo zai lai kan ni ok?? (tmr i will come and see you again ok??") "

and i picked up "her" dried leaf on the grass.. and pasted it on the "wound"..

"bye bye!"

i don't know.. whether the tree ever said "thank you..... " from her heart...

the tree is no longer there... we moved away and the new owner chopped off the tree..

And we used to have swing under the tree you know?

so nice...

yah... don't kill ants.

Just think that how a car runs across a human body.. until the body is FLAT...

do you think it's very scary and do you feel for the victim??

you do rite??

it will be a headline in newspaper..

FLAT BODY AFTER SEVERE ACCIDENT!!

so don't kill ants la... they feel pain too...

also... don't flush them!!

think of you yourself being drown k...do you enjoy it?

Think of the tsunami victims..

we are ants on the earth.....aren't we??

Share with you guys sth that i learn from my student.

Ants never sleep.

They just keep on working and working.. till they die..

Such a hardworking creature.. why do you kill???

oh man~ ( influenced by my students ) it's very late liao... here goes pictures!

2005-09-02T22:11:00.000+08:00

AIYO....... SO long never blog!!

Life is good... =)

I don't practise the piano for the sake of practising...

I practise because i enjoy it.... this feeling has finally returned to me...

No pressure AT ALL!!

I lost this feeling when i was in FFF school... hmmm...really...

So... I love my course now!

I am aiming to be a good music educator.. so the first step.. i need to understand children..

How to see each child as individual and how to give them the best education..

To help them to learn.. as well as to be a better person in future..

at the same time... i'm preparing for my piano LRSM exam.. it's equivalent to a degree
qualification.. yea it's written in ABRSM website... think will only take the exam in 2007.. =)

Share with you guys.. one of my biggest achievement so far..

I'm still very happy over this! It's about one of my piano student....

Her name is Yi le...

She has been under my teaching for 3 years.. since she was pri 1 till now.. yah she's now pri 4.

How do i describe her then... hmm... smart, tall, pretty... but she is bloody diao1 man2..
spoilt brat in english.. She is inconsiderate, she is rude to elders! which i couldn't stand..

Her behaviour, i give her an F... no matter how good her result is.. no matter how good she
behaves in school.

Having such kid is not easy at all... you know what did she do to me during lesson?

SCREAM!!!

SHOUT!!

STARE!!

KICK the piano! BANG the piano!

so normally the situation went like this..

"play this one more time.. "

"HMPH!! " ( and she banged the piano kicked the piano and hit all the keys as loud as she could)

i would just keep quiet.. and asked her to play again.. cuz she never practise at home!

What could i do? i practised with her...

and she would do the same thing again... mum came out.. shouted at her..

"ChEN YI LE you better do properly ah!! ah you ah!! later your papa come back
then you know! si ding le ni!!!! "

so yi le would become really furious! and screamed back..

" SHUT UP LA YOU!! GO AWAY LA!! SO NOISY!! "

and i couldn't stand her attitude to her mother..

"yi le... how could you shout like this to your mother! "

then she would have the ignorant look.. "hmph! she shouted at me 1st what!!"

then she started crying...

actually.. the mother juz asked her to do properly.. just in a raised voice..

sometimes.. she would run into the room and shut the door... so the mother would shout outside..

"YOU LOCK!! YOU BETTER OPEN I TELL YOU! "

It only happened when the mother scolded her.. not me..

Once, she shouted to me again.. "Why do i need to practise!!!"

i've tolerated for long.. and i was telling myself "cool down cool down.."
And now she shouted at me! i couldn't stand her anymore.. and i stood up.. closed her
book, threw it on the chair

"PIAK" so loud! i was shocked by myself too..

"FINE! don't need to practise anymore! ask kakak to open the door for me.. i'm leaving"

she gave me a shocked look.. and we talked at the door...and i asked her to THINK.

She kept quiet for 15 mins and before i left she admitted she was wrong.

And i said sorry to her because i came all the way to her house to make her angry.

Her dad called me at night.. said Yi le cried and scared i didn't want to teach her anymore..

We talked over the phone and she promised me not to shout at me anymore..

This happened quite long ago..

And as time goes by..i've found out that she no longer shouts at me..

In fact.. when i ask her to play again and again..( and i like to do that to my students..
because i don't feel nice if i'm not satisfied) she never complain..

Instead of "Hmph!" kick bang plus hitting the keys... she said "emm! ok!! from here ah?"

What a positive attitude!!!

I praised her that day... in front of her mother.. saying that she has grown up.. and i was
laughing at her first pimple..(although i have thousand times more than hers!)

One thing i know about her.. she likes to be challenged..

I taught her pedalling that day.. and i taught her a really beautiful song by Macdowell..

A wild rose if i'm not wrong...

It's really a miracle to me.. she practised!! With all the pedalling...and notes!

I was so happy that i stood up and went straight to her mother and told her about the
progress she has made!

"Auntie! She practised!!"

And her mum told me that yi le said she has more interest in piano now.. muharhahrar!

I was touched and i was really happy..

not only because of her effort... but her learning attitude!

But it really takes a lot of time..

This is a little success for me as a teacher..... i'm really happy and proud of her...=)

2005-08-17T10:44:00.000+08:00

Back to english kekeke....

hey hey.... do you know that i have started school once again???

It's my 3rd time... bloody 3rd time....... T_T

I started chem eng.. and i started music.. now i'm doing education...

chem eng.. forget about it.. the smartest choice in my life to give up the course!!

music...i never regret... and i have really done my best... i'm juz so suay to go to that school..
because my standard is not up to their expectations..too bad...

but i really do well... my best result in the school.. 3 As and one A+!!!

damn... but it's useless isn't it..

i remember... the day before the re jury... the nail of my right hand index finger was
seperated from my flesh.. the front part... it was really painful whenever i use that finger...

it happened because i used too much pushing.. then....

"PIAK"

that's it...

i was so worried........ really worried...

before i slept.. i tried to play once again... i couldn't... the pain was unbearable...

so i prayed..

muahrharhahr!! and the injury was healed the next morning! Praise God huh!!!

HALLELUYAH!!!

okie okie anyway... these 2 years i have really learnt a lot.. theory as well as practical..

and i think i'm more confident to teach higher grade students now...

the 2 years were never wasted..

Just that... i bu shuang.. hahaha!!

Good that i bounced back! and i made a nice fullstop in FFF school...

and i never gave up... i went for re jury... although i knew it was a dead end..

Da ge said i'm a cockroach..

because cockroach won't die if you hit it once or twice... it will still run and run and run...

well at first i really didn't like it when he said i'm a cockroach...

he said.. you got "zhang1 lang2 ban1 de sheng1 ming4 li4"

how do i translate that??? lazy to think about it..

but now i took it as compliment la.. haha..

I'm a cockroach.

Come and hit me!!

but but..... don't wan la~~~~~

the new course is great... and i'm starting to like it.. more and more..!!

it's indeed very helpful in my teachings..

the lecturer is really funny... i think she can be a really good actress...

She was acting those down's syndrome children during yesterday class..

because we were learning the characteristic of those special children..

Well.. i love the lesson!!

One day.. if possible.. i'd really like to give music education for special children...

i was having this idea during the lesson.. but i need special skills to handle the children too..

hmmm.. we will see how...

I want to dedicate my life for music teaching...

Not because i got no choice and end up being a piano teacher...

I want to do it.. and be a successful music educator..

Wah sounded so pro ho?

In Chinese... hehehe...

一切都还好。。。

哎呀。。就快要工作了！！也快要开学了！！

哈哈哈。。。双管齐下！不错不错。。

好像步入了人生的另一个阶段。。一切对我来说。。是新鲜。。也是未知数。。

这一年。。我会冲刺。。工作。。学业。。爱情。。亲情。。友情。。

哪一个比较重要呢？？嘻嘻。。

都重要。

我会努力。。

将会很忙呢。。

忙得不得了。。星期一至星期五要上课。。2 点到6点。。早上也许有一些学生。。不多。。
晚上得教琴。。自己的学生。。现在有9个钢琴学生呢。，真的会很忙。。全部得安排在周
日晚上。。周末更是忙。。得在音乐学校教琴。。

但是没有关系啦。。我喜欢教琴。。只担心。。　会累坏了。。

最近。。总算摆脱了。。摆脱了。。。

一些很考技巧的古典乐曲。。。。

并不是我不爱了。。　而是。。　他不是我的最爱。。　

我享受音乐。。我要享受音乐。。

我不要紧张。。我不要思前想后。。接下来该用怎样的力度？　怎样的 touch??　

太多顾虑了。。　不是吗？

这些。。　都应该是发自内心的。。

有时过于盲目。。　反而忘了。。喜欢钢琴的感觉。。

你有过这种感觉吗？

弹钢琴。。变成一种负担。。

一年里。。弹来弹去就是那几首歌。。

真的。。。不喜欢。。

不过还好。。　这两年来。。　我学到了很多东西。。开始了解老师的弹法。。老师的　interpretation...这些。。将会对我的教学获益不浅哦！

开始了解。。　尝试不同钢琴老师的重要。。　masterclasses　真得很棒！

话说回来。。

我想要的是。。

接下来。。我要怎样去感受？

感受自己弹出来的音乐。。

我再写什么呢？其实我也不知道。。

靠感觉而已。。　

我享受自己的音乐。。。

我曾经被自己的音乐感动。。留下了眼泪。。

后来还告诉爸爸呢。。

我说。。

“真的是太感动了！！”

哈哈。。。　忘了爸爸说什么。。　也许骂我傻婆吧。。　哈哈。。

初恋时。。　每当想起他。。　就会弹奏Long Vacation 里的　Minami-Piano Piece of Sena..

木村托哉在大决赛弹奏的那首。。很有感觉的。。你知道这首歌吗？

我。。走火入魔了。。

真的。。

我想他想得快疯掉了。。

一直弹一直弹。。脑海里想着每一段回忆。。

这种走火入魔的日子。。。持续了好几个月。。

其实，一切都是白白的等待。。

只知道。。他的样子越来越模糊。。

现在。。我不再弹奏那首歌了。。

。。。。。。

我已经忘了。。怎么弹。。

真的。。

告诉你一个秘密。。

他告诉我说。。　他有点后悔。。。

哈哈哈哈！！

还说。。我变漂亮了。。。便瘦了。。而且琴艺一定进步了不少。。

他说。。到了天堂。。回来敲我的门。。

我说。。　不行啊。。　因为到时候。。　我还是会和 Costin 在一起。。

他可以给我浪漫。。但是。。那不会是永远。。

。。。。。。。。。。。

如果你将和你的前男友见面。。　你会精心打扮吗？

我会。。　而且一定会！！　

我要让他们后悔！！！

后悔从前的不珍惜。。。。。

我很珍惜Costin。。。总觉得。。　没有人会比你更好了。。

你就是上天赐给我的。。

咚！！　突然间你掉下来了。。　啊哈哈。。就在我面前。。

我给你一片 banana cheese roti prata。。　你就是我的了！！哈哈哈哈！！

总觉得。。没有人比你更适合我了。。

我们的性格。。我们的想法。。

常常都好像是在互补对方的不足。。。

这样。。不是很好吗？

是的。。　我找不到你有什么不好。。

就是。。。有时候有点大男人。。。有时候好像不大相信我的能力。。

我知道。。　我是真得很糊涂。。

但是。。有时候我也很聪明的。。。

你也说。。　我很聪明的ho?

处事方面。。。你总是比较理智。。　我真的从你身上学了很多。。

我太靠感觉了。。不大好。。

可是因为我的感觉强烈。。所以有时候你得听我的。。　哈哈哈！！

要好好对我哦。。不然。。。。。“左手废” you know who...会。。。。。。。。

一拳给你死！！！！

哈哈。。还记得她说过的话吗？

2005-08-05T16:09:00.000+08:00

我的网上日记。。。

突然之间。。想用华文写日记。。毕竟华文对我来说。。还是比较容易表达。。

比较有感觉吧。。

什么事都靠感觉。。哈哈。。我真的是搞艺术的。。

好久都没用华文了呢。。有点生疏。。

可是这样，有好些朋友都不能读了呢。。因为不懂华文嘛！好像 jae sern 啦。。

何立尼　还有。。　琳达！！你们看得懂吗？嘻嘻。。

Re-jury 也过了一段日子了。。　还没消息。。　但我并不期待什么。。　只是希望这场噩梦
快点结束。。。　

读音乐。。不是一直都是我的梦想吗？

我是很执著的。。　一直告诉朋友。。　不要放弃梦想。。　不管路有多苦。。　总要撑下去。。

好不容易。。我等到了这个难得的机会。。马上就交了申请表格。。　用一个月的时间。。

苦练钢琴。。。

我达到了。。我读了。。可是为什么不让我好好的毕业呢。。。

我真的是太天真了。。不是吗？

读音乐的日子。。使我一生中最开心。。最满足的日子。。　

每一天。。　我都在进步。。都在学习。。

每一天。。　都想在挖掘宝藏一样。。。

音乐作家。。　简直是太神奇了！！！　

总觉得。。　作曲。。　就是他们来到这个世界的使命。。。

一切。。　就像冥冥中早已注定。。

那么。。。　我的音乐坎坷道路。。也是冥冥中的安排？

其实。。　我不应该是那么坚强的。。。

你知道吗？　我是温室里的花朵。。。　我父母都很保护我的。。

每天放学爸爸总会在校门口等我。。很少有机会搭巴士回家的。。

家教很严。。男生打电话来。。我会被骂。。　不能穿得暴露。。　吃饭要端庄。。　手要拿着碗。。
很少有机会可以和朋友出门。。其实根本没机会。。　哈哈。。

被骂的时候。。就是好像。。。　内裤没自己洗。。　哈哈哈！！　

这可是很严重的问题。。对妈妈来说。。

“洗澡后就顺便洗上来！！　很难咩？？坏习惯！！”

然后。。。　我得听上这句话十多年。。哈哈。。　很啰嗦的妈妈。。我想我也一样啦！

可是。。　现在我洗了！哈哈。。　好不容易。。我终于听进去了。。

哎。。　洗内裤真麻烦。。

来到了新加坡。。　我像是一只恢复自由的鸟。。　可以到自己想去的地方。。

不需要再问妈妈了。。　因为如果问她。。　一定是。。

“去啰去啰！！！　你开心就去饱它啰！我不知道！” 后面省略十分钟的挨骂。。

听了这些话。。还会有心情出去吗。。。

然后我当然会说。。 “OKIE LA!! 不要去了啦！”

“哼！！！”　（在心里哼而已。。。给妈妈听到可不得了啦！）

总之。。没有妈妈的严厉管教。。也没有今天的我。。

对呀。。　没经过大风大浪。。　怎么会坚强？怎么会变得勇敢？

１８岁之前。。。　一切都是太美好。。幸福得不得了。。　父母虽然严厉。。　但是毕竟是为我好。。

所以。。一切是美好。。　家庭也很好。。　妈妈好。。爸爸也好。。

其实，　想一想。。暴风雨才要在１８岁后开始呢。。。开始人生历练。。

１９。。２０。。２１。。２２。。

四年了呢。。。

１９，２０岁是个转捩点。。也不容易。。住在宿舍的日子。。。认知了在生命中很重要的朋友。。
从他们身上。。我学了好多好多。。也便坚强了。。也为这一次的打击铺路吧。。

不管风再大。。我知道。。　这群朋友。。永远会帮我遮风遮雨。。

其实。。。

我。。。。。。。

我。。。

我真的是太幸福了。。。有你们，高中的朋友。。宿舍的朋友。。音乐的朋友。。

还有。。永远疼爱我的家人。。。

还有。。。把我放在第一位的男朋友。。。

还有。。。一个最疼爱我的上天爸爸！！

OH NO!!! I LOST MY MEGA POST!!! STUPID BLOGSPOT!!

Am i going to blog everything again???? OH NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

.. ....... ........... ...... .............. ...... ......... .... ......... ...............T_T

Sobsob

Re-Jury... Jo has moved in with me~

I got nothing to blog about Rejury... it really took me a lot of courage to go back and play...
I have no feelings to the school anymore.. I don't like to go back... I seriously don't...

I have planned so much... but life is full of changes... just like the Mega post i was writing just
now.. it could just disappear in a second!! Cry cry....

But i set a target for myself.. which i want to achieve in my life...

I was so touched... my mum came all the way to Singapore.. just to encourage me.. and to cook
nice dishes for me.. She told me in the car that.. "No matter pass or fail this round, we must still
celebrate.. win also celebrate, lose also celebrate! "

I was actually holding my tears... yah.. the road has been tough for me...

But i has been very positive and i know everything will be fine at the end of the day...

It's a path that i must go through... which will make me even stronger in the coming days..

my life... Da4 feng1 da4 lang4... but there's always shelter for me... So many of them...=)

I love my family so much... i want to be part of this family if i have my next life... it's a
wonderful family.. although..... my mum is super strict kinda woman.. and she is conservative..
But she is a mum who is willing to sacrifice anything just for the children... no matter how
tough the road is.. she will walk through... She is an extremist.. just like me.. hahaha!

So now i'm having a hard time.. and my family is always there...as well as my friends..

Hmmm... will my friends look down on me?? cuz i'm a non- graduate..
my mum always asked... but so far... everybody has been supportive.... =)

And i really feel bad to see all my friends wearing graduation gown...

How i hope i could be one of them...

Will Costin's parents look down on me??

Well... i will get a degree at the end of the day.. it's just a matter of time and where...

I'm glad that i secure a job in Seimpi music school... as a result i'm able to save more money..
to give my papa mama.. to settle all my study loans, have a great and memorable wedding
as well as to save money for home design...=)

at the same time, i will go for part time degree course, which is helpful in my career...

Jia you jia you...i must walk on...

My papa is getting older... if i have money.. i will buy him a brand new car... and give him
a lot of money to buy Toto.. haha... and to sponsor him for travelling...

My dog Brownie is getting older too... I want to go back and sayang him more...
He is a chi go pek u know? haha.. male dog.. still a virgin.. can't really blame him....
So poor thing right?? so he always goes crazy when he sees me... hahahha!!

about me and Costin...

I'm very sorry that sometimes i'm so childish, so stubborn, being so emotional, and sometimes
i just don't use my brain... i always spoilt your day.. rite?

And when we end up being unhappy.. you are always the one to give in and give me hug hug..

why am i always like that?? everytime i promise myself to be better.. to improve.. but there
are always new things for me to improve...there's never an end..i thought i'm already good..
but actually i'm still bad... it seems that i'm at the wrong everytime..and you are always
the right one.. and i totally agree that you are correct...and i must learn from my mistakes...
I think i'm just sooo lousy for you...

maybe u don't like emotional gals.. maybe u like rational gals more.. who always think before
they say something.. who can plan things nicely like you...

But look at me, i don't "think".. i don't use my brain sometimes.. i use my heart more...

I don't know what can i do more for you...maybe you have get used to the "positive" shann...

sometimes i need to express my sadness too...

To live happily with your family is my biggest concern now...i'm not used to your family..
i don't know the rules...i hate quarrels.... and i don't want to live within pressures...

You are a wonderful boyfriend.. just that i think i'm very lousy for you...

And you will be very tired to give in each time....

i will try my best to get rid of the pride which is controlling me.... i will hug you 1st next time..
ahha..

I'm afraid of making you angry...

I think i will just be who i am la...... i don't think i can change to the "perfect" woman which
every guys dream for...

It's tiring for me too.. because everytime i'm at the wrong.....

Whoever is reading this.. don't ever think that we are not in good terms now...

Hahaha.. we are still deeply in love... just that i'm now being emotional and super negative now..
I will be okie again very soon...

But that's the purpose of this blog isn't it?

anything i need to improve???? hmmmmm.................................. aaaaaaaarrrrgghhhhh!!

Actually.... this relationship is very sweet and steady...we both can see our future..

Just that... sometimes we have to be understanding and we need to compromise a lot of things..

But that is how a relationship survive right?

AIYAH!! I TELL YOU... WE ARE PERFECT COUPLE!! HAHAHA HOR DEAR??

only i sot sot again la.. we very sweet now k hiak hiak...

Fullerton Wedding Show

The wedding show was fantastic!!! Man! the atmosphere in Fullerton was just sooooo great!!

When we stepped in, we heard music... you will know, that was live music.. not by recordings..

when we walked down by the staircase, a beautiful japanese lady was playing the harp...

Oh my god! she was swinging with the music.. and the harp was dancing with her...

Can you imagine how beautiful she is??

The MC was very funny too.. hahaha.. and he managed to catch the attention of all the guest..

The wedding gowns by Ted Wu were really beautiful...and the models....

*slurp*

SO BLOODY HANDSOME!!!!

i love the models!! See the way they walk and how they carry themselves...

WOW... stunning!!

we managed to observe the models in a near distance.. we were just beside the bridge..

Could even hear their foot steps " kok kok kok"

Too bad cannot take photos!! hmph!!!

But i managed to take one SECRETLY!!

Yah the bridge.. hahaha!

esp one of the handsome model, Costin you know who rite?? haha!!

After the show we visited bridal suite and Straits Room..

Guess what we found in the Straits Room!!!!

Here goes other pictures we took in Fullerton.....

Live music in Trio...

Nice dinner at breeks!

We had a great dinner at breeks... hmmm why did i say so?

Not becuz of the food though.. but the spagetti was really great!!

We had a nice dinner.. the most enjoyable dinner we have ever had....

Me and Costin belong to nice customers.. We are polite and we always appreciate their
service..A "thank you" from our mouth is not that difficult.. A "smile" from our heart
is not that difficult too... we don't make things difficult for the staffs rite???

Maybe that's because i used to work in Takashimaya and i swear that i will respect every
workers under service line... you know how hard is the work?? You have to smile no matter
how bad your day is... you have to stand all day.. you have to even say sorry to nasty
customers! I met some and i quit the job... hahaha!!

UNbearable!!!

anyway.... this is a picture of the waitress.. her name is Diane...

She gave us dessert for free after our meals... and she said it's from her... hehe..

Before we left... she rushed out from the counter and talked to us...

She was telling us that she had a scrude up day... and she really liked how we bahaved during
the dinner...which really brightened up her day... and she said she would give us something
different next time.. hahaha...

And we took a picture together kekeke...all the other waiters and waitress were looking at us..

Wow we were so happy!!

We appreciate her, and she appreciates us.....

What did we do?

Me and Costin actually just said " thank you" everytime she brought something over.. Be it
our main dish or a fork... looked at her and smiled...

Come to think of it...long time ago, i might just continue talking and let them do their work...

But now no more... becuz a smile is simple.. and it brings happiness to other ppl....

So.. let's smile! kekeke...

No matter how bad the situation is... Believe that God is always good.......

Love you guys...... anyway we are not going to hold our wedding at Fullerton... not worth
it though... it's ard 928++ per table... haha....

But i'm definitely going Tan Yoong... no matter how ex it's gonna be!

Yes dear? kekeke.........

2005-07-18T23:21:00.000+08:00

How are you?? I'm fine!!

Hehe...i got a job in Se-impi school of music! Well.. as first i thought the boss did not want me..
cuz she kept on mention that she is not looking for performers, but professional teacher who is
willing to commit and dedicate for young children teaching..and she told me that she rejected
some applicants too..

Anyway.. I GOT IT!! hahaha.. and they will take me as part time teacher 1st while waiting for
the result of my re-jury.. So if i can't return to FFF school, they will then take me as Full time
teacher.. nice rite...favoured by my Daddy..=)

Anyway... my path has become clearer and clearer...i see myself teaching music to young
children.. and i might be joining Froebel academy to pursue my degree, all thanks to herlini.. hehehe.. =)

Bachelor of Arts in Education.

And before the degree, i will take a diploma in pre-school education..

3 1/2 years part time course.. 3 evenings per week.. not bad rite?

You see... if that's the case..

(1) I will become a full time piano teacher in Se-impi school of Music..
(2) The school will then apply employment pass for me.
(3) And i can apply PR., then marry.. ( okie! i never say "yes" to you yet.. so don't you
ever think that i will definitely marry you!!!!!!!!!!! NEH!!)
(4) At the same time taking part time course.
(5) So, i get to save money while working full time, at the same time i can study.
(6) And i will be able to keep my private piano students. If i take full time diploma course,
i think i'll have to drop all of their lessons...she bu de...
(7) I want to get a lounge pianist job Papa.... I want to perform..!!

Yea.. the NIE right.. i heard from my piano students that the MEP programme in secondary
school is actually very boring..and some of them actually quit.. and the course work is not
what i like to teach..... i really don't like..i must think twice..

I know it's definitely not what i want to do in my life.. i don't want to waste my 8 years there..
4 years study + 4 years bond.

Great!! now I can start my career... at the same time getting a degree..

2 years in Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music was never a waste...I have completed all
theory courses, from Barouque till 20th Century music.. Well, i must say that i benefit a lot
from the school, all of these are free education!! hahaha...I have learnt Albert Tiu's
interpretation of music.. I have learnt history of music..i have learnt a lot there..
And i have definitely grown in music... so much.. so much..

It prepares me for my next step.

A bigger achievement in my life.

When i decided to go for Se-impi School of Music, the Froebel Academy came in soon after..
Isn't this perfect? Everything falls into one piece...the course is related to my job! I bet my boss
will be super happy knowing that i'm going for pre-school education course.

And one day, i will apply all my skills in my very own music school....hiak hiak hiak!

I believe in Daddy's plan... Do you?

Recently, i juz feel that NIE is not the right path God has prepared for me...

After i consulted my students, it was confirmed...I DON'T WANT TO GO!!!

I am Shann. And I want Shann's life. Shann wants her life. Her life wants Shann.

I know i have definitely made a right decision to switch course from Chemical Engineering..

My 2nd best decision in my life.

So hmm.. what's the first then?

BEST decision in my life.. to accept Costin to come into my life.. and now i am going to have a good husband in my entire life!! This is the most most most important decision in my life..

And i made a right choice. He made a right choice too...cuz i really think i'm not bad lo hahaha!!

If you are interested in Se-impi school of music, read the below.
If you are NOT interested, then juz skip lo.. haha..

Dear Parents,

Every child is unique. So is yours.

Since birth, every child has the potential to achieve many great things in life. There is a
sleeping genius in every one of them. It is the duty of parents and caregivers to awake
this genius in the child - to help them achieve their highest potential in life and be the
best they can possibly be.

Researchers and scientists have been working hard to find out what are some of the methods
to bring out the best in human potential. And they found that music is one of the best ways
to do so.

Many educators and parents know the positive impact music has on other aspects of the
child’s life. These educators and parents will tell you, and numerous researches until today
have shown, that musical involvement improves a child's:

- self-discipline,
- dexterity,
- coordination,
- self-esteem,
- thinking skills,
- listening skills,
- creative abilities,
- personal expression and even
- math and science subjects in school

Music has a positive impact on human beings
- to our learning processes, brain development, organization and the refinement of our
entire neurological system.

According to Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner, music intelligence is equal in
importance to logical-mathematical, linguistic, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal
and intrapersonal intelligence.

Here at Seimpi School of Music, we aim to provide a holistic music education by engaging
the multi-sensory experiences and using brain-based concepts to ensure fun and enjoyment
in the midst of high quality music training.

In Seimpi, we teach and train children in:

- Memory Skill
- Sight / Skim ( Speed) Reading
- Auditory Perceptual Skill
- Music Mapping
- Strong Rhythmic Sense
- Good Ear
- Analytical Skill
- Physical Coordination
- Creativity / Spontaneity
- Focus / Confidence

We train children as young as 12 months old right up to adults. Our program for the young, Music for the Intelligent MindTM (MIMTM) , is set up specially to
introduce formal music training at an early age through interesting play, ensemble and innovative musical games.

We sincerely feel that early, positive musical experience is uniquely important for children.

Musical activities provide children with important experiences that can help them develop

- physical coordination,
- timing,
- memory,
- visual,
- aural and
- language skills.

When the children work to increase their command of music and exercise musical skills
in the company of others, they gain important experience with self-paced learning, mental
concentration and a heightened personal and social awareness.

The uniqueness of MIMTM is that we place equal emphasis on both eye training and speed reading and on ear training. Like mastering a language, you need to know
how to speak as well as to read the words. Otherwise, playing music without the ability to
read will not build a good foundation for future learning.

You need to "hear what you see and see what you hear" (quoted from the famous
music educator of the last century, Zoltan Kodaly).

Children under six years old have a great ability to undergo both eye and ear training.
In our course we try to catch these golden years of fast paced learning in a child.
Understanding of good posture and techniques of playing an instrument is also important
from an early age. Parents must make sure their children learn to play the instrument
(e.g. violin) and not just learn to play the tune. Bad habits are hard to remedy in the later
years.

Also, our MIMTM programs will prepare the child for the ABRSM graded system, which is
world wide recognized and most Singaporean music students will take when they sit for
their music exams. This will prevent children from having to switch systems or change their
mindset or having to relearn everything again once they want to sit for the graded exams.
We welcome you to browse through our website to have a better understanding of our teaching
concepts. And check out the courses that we have to offer.

Also, sign up for our free newsletter for more music learning tips, resources and other child
development ideas.

Yours truly,

Principal
Seimpi School of Music

I never regret to choose music as my life.

Even though i might not major in piano performance.. but I can do music education...!

as long as i am doing music. That's my purpose.

I've been blessed generously haha.. a lot of little things in my life..a lot..

For example.. my family esp my mum has been very encouraging... Costin's parents treat me

like their daugther.. My hall gang as well as my high school friends, piano friends have been

very supportive.. Nobody has left me.. wow.. it really feels great and i will cherish everyone of u!

I can't forgive myself being a non- graduate...i am good at study!!

I got 8 As in O level equivalent and another 8 As in A level equivalent....

My family has been proud of me... being a good student as well as a musican.

My family has been proud of me... being able to give them money though i'm still studying...

My family has been proud of me... being independent and determined.

I am determined to get a degree.

JI DAN GAO!!

Wait for me k......... give me 5 years.. =)

5 years is really long... so i don't want to drag my life plan.. that's why me and Costin decided to
get married 1st, and i will start studying as well as continue my teaching career.. =)

I chose to reject NAFA because i will not use my family's money...

Jo said, think about the purpose why i pursue music in the first place...

Because i love it....so don't let obstacles stop me.. like money..

but u see... i cannot let the obstalces become my family's burden!!

I don't like to owe ppl... and i don't like to trouble ppl.. that's me....

That's the reason why i choose to go for bachelor of education in NIE... that is the
window God has opened for me... That is the only place which don't require me to pay
for tuition fees, on top of that, it provides me experience and i will be able to save money
or to give even more money to my parents.

My da ge needs to save money too...although he has been promoted, but doesn't mean
he has to help me to pay off my school fees... i would rather let him save that sum of money..
find a good gf....buy a condo for himself... or maybe sponsor me for a trip.. haha!

as he promised~~~

For my er ge.... He is getting married soon, and he needs to buy apartment...

I will never touch my parents' money.. i should be the one giving them money....

i don't want to give them burden anymore....

you know how i feel right? if you know me.....

I just sent my resume to a music school, which provides really good pay..
all thanks to Diana..She told me i could earn up to 4k if i become a full time teacher there..
she said it's possible cuz she counted haha..

Another window opened... right now, i need to earn a lot of money.. so i get to save
more money to have a really nice wedding.. as well as to clear all my study loan =)

No money.. no wedding in singapore... hahaha..

You dont tell me i'm money minded la!

I love money because i can't survive without money in this world..

Without money, we feel insecure..

Without money, we can't do a lot of things...

So ah.. let's make a wish here for everybody....

(1) Be healthy
(2) Graduate and have a stable career.
(3) Find a good husband/ wife...
(4) Keep in touch with all your close friends...
(5) Save money.
(6) So you will be able to travel and have a comfortable life.
(7) Happy family.
(8) Make yourself pretty and presentable even though you have 3 children. 34C-22-35 GOOD??
(9) Don't ever be an auntie or ah soh.. Be a babe.
(10) Don't ever be ah pek or ah cek... Be a man.

What else ha???

Okie blog next time... haha

Oh I Know!!!!!!!

THE WEDDING PLANNER!!!!!

2005-07-08T11:03:00.000+08:00

Me and Costin. Two years and three months..

Time flies isn't it... I still remember the night when he asked me to be his gf..
hmmm... it was outside esplanade, by the Singapore River, where we faced the Merlion and
Centro..

"I am not a good girl, i drink, i club and i hate guys.. you don't mind?"

"i don't mind."

"i will not give my trust."

what did he reply ah? i forgot... haha...

So he insisted.. and i didn't know what to do...in the end, i decided to give him a chance..
and of cuz, i really hope that he is not another bad guy..

That night, i never let him hold my hand, and we never kissed under the moonlight. haha!!

i just couldn't believe that i was no longer "single"..

I have a boyfriend!!!!! DIE.... Maybe it's gonna be something very hurtful again..

It's amazing that our love started to grow and i started to think that he was a harmless guy.

So yes... honeymoon period..=)

and i started to tell him...

"You will not treat me the same 2 months later.."

"oh okie..... then u see lo... "

shit!! 2 months later he never changed but loved me more and more...

and i started to tell him....

"You will not treat me the same 2 years later.."

"oh okie..... then u see lo... "

BLOODY HELL!! 2 years later he never changed but loved me more than he loved himself.

and i started to tell him....

"You will not treat me the same after we get married.."

"Yah it will be different.... because i will treat you even better and sweeter! haha!!"

in a way, i am proud of this relationship... 2 years and 3 months.. we are still in honeymoon.

It's not easy to maintain, we really put in effort.

Whether you want or you don't want.

I broke the curse.

The curse saying that honeymoon will not last more than THREE MONTHS!

Anyway... he will be on course after he graduate next year.. followed by sailing..

so shall i get married next year? or wait for him for another 3 years plus?

We have the money to get married next year...

The problem is, he will be busy with his fyp.. who will settle the wedding?

How? i don't know how lei..

Aiyo so fast.. and i'm bit scared lei.. haha.. dunno why...

okie picture picture.. went to Paris seafood buffet with Costin.... I don't really like the food but i like the person eating with me.. so the whole dinner was nice haha!

Funny furry crab, lobsters, prawns, scallop..

Er2 gan1 jiang4 goes with the biscuits..abolone with lettuce..some funny stuff eeeeeeee...

The funny furry crab!

Goose meat.. eeeeee!! smell like a goose!!

Lamb chop, steak and chicken chop..

This is nice... Salmon, Snow fish, a lot more good stuff and they baked for us..

This is nice too... Cheese sotong ball.. so special.. hehe..

more cosmetics!! this gal ah.........addicted to buy cosmetics! hahaha... but her complexion
is damn good!!!!!! blessed blessed!!

I WANT TO HAVE A GOOD COMPLEXION TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I never go shopping for sooooo long..... i never even go for MANGO sales....
Well, I browsed through once.. but i just don't have the feeling... u know?

The Feel

Okie, next..

haha! so weird, yesterday my cousin, Susie jie jie called me, her friend's children
wanna learn piano.. 2 together, but it's at BISHAN!!! hmm.. i'm still considering..

At nite, Giri msged me, and he asked me whether i am still open for piano lesson!

Isn't that so cool?? hahaha!!

i love to teach piano... because i feel happy and proud of them when i see my students
improve and being musical...

i love to do what i love to do

What if i'm an engineer now???

KILL me pls.................... that's not my life!

And i DON'T WANT TO BE AN ENGINEER!!!!!

But look at my brother... he is a successful civil engineer, He just collected a free $3000
laptop from Sim Lin square, the money was paid by his construction company, he
requested for a laptop!! bloody hell, and he actually uses that laptop to watch DVD, burn
DVD, playing games, read novels... And he chose the laptop himself!! Besides, his car
payment is subsidized, he has $300 petrol to use each month, which he said he couldn't
finish the $300 no matter how hard he tried, so he always drives me around in Singapore..
to eat and shop.

And he is going to request for another digital camera, the super thin Sony digi cam.

Well.. good for me la! i can use too! haha..

Again, he can claim for his hp bill and the parking fees...

So bloody irritating right??? But he works really hard and i think he deserves this too.. =)

Okie, let's share some pictures~~

2005-06-28T15:14:00.000+08:00

FINALLY UPDATED

Yo!! i was away... went back Malaysia for cousin's wedding.. Costin went back with me
too..and he met all of my relatives.. those kids like him haha.. very funny..

And we gambled with kids, i'm the zhuang1... hahhaha!! We were playing ban lak...
so cute!! those kids used their fingers to count whether they managed to get 21 points.
haha!

My cousin was very pretty that day, she never used cosmetic before.. a very nice
kampung girl.. the bridegroom was very smart, and STRONG, so we did not manage
to stop him man... He entered the house through the side door.. bloody hell!! and he
broke through the door of the room! all the sisters failed! hahhaa..
anyway.. it was very fun!

Now.... hmmm... talk about my studies??

i'm not going to NAFA.

WHY?????

You see.. NAFA 3 years without tuition grant, cost me around 40k.. how many years
do i need to earn back that sum of money?? 3 years! plus if i'm going to teach in singapore,
i need one more year of teacher training programme, so ...................

time spend : 3+1=4 years

money spend: $40k

NIE Bachelor of Education, don't need a single cent, plus i get paid $1500 per month,
PLUS the money i earn through private piano lesson, i'm able to earn up to $3000-4000
per month! Isn't this the same as a fresh graduate? yah.. so i won't be wasting my time rite...
Another 3 years in NAFA, but throw all my hard earn money to NAFA????

NO no......

So you see....

time spend : 4 years

Money earned and saved.

Okie that's my decision... Getting married in 2 years time.. my mum agreed...

Everything is still the same, i will still get a degree at the end of the day, only a matter of
time...

I just don't want to waste my time and money.

You know?

Will upload more pictures here tmr... men han's birthday at my house! haha..

2005-06-20T01:24:00.000+08:00

I am a favoured child of God

If you ask me, if your God is so good, why the hell did he put you in such situation?

And i shall answer, i trust in His finished work. I trust in His plan for me. The road is
tough but i am not alone. He is always guiding me...Why do people always blame Him
when bad things happen? It's so unfair!! Think of what He had done...

For you and for me.

When i knew that i was asked to transfer school, Tears dropped when i was eating, tears
dropped when i was worshipping, tears dropped when i was messaging... tears dropped
when i was stoning.... I just couldn't control it..

But when you trust in Him, peace and joy will overcome the fear and uncertainty of life.

Now.. i love the peacefulness in my heart.. and I love the feeling of being loved!!

Costin told me while i was crying, " don't think about what you have lost, think about
what you are having now! "

And i feel so bloody blessed now.

I have almost everything.. except a flat tummy.. hey but it's improving k!
my waist can reach 23.5 inches in the morning before i drink water! haha!!

No matter how bad the situation is, i will not let go of His love...

It's not the end of the world..you know..we have to learn how to accept failures and
stand up again. Sounds so classic but it's really true.

A Conversation with Jo

~Shann~ relationship lei... when it's time, i think he will come to u
last time i approached costin too wat
haha i was quite zhu dong to know him as well

~God loves jo~ Actually now that u say it... this is quite biblical... the way u got to
know Costin.
Because in the Bible, it's always the women who GO to the man!

~Shann~ and i bought him prata when he felt hungry.. he nv told me he was
hungry,,. but at foon seng.. with u guys u know.. i juz thought of him,
and until today, he said he was so touched by my roti prata cuz he was
very hungry! haha really!

~God loves jo~ hahaha and u know actually in the bible, the women would always feed
the man and that would be the sign? ;)
or his animals la

~Shann~ although he is not a christian.. from my heart, i still know that he is the
one God has sent for me..really perfect for me! other gals might not like
him, but i like
haha
oh really! sign sign !!

~God loves jo~ haha yea.... so good
U see... God wants ur heart to be still
there is no right or wrong in God, so don't worry
only look more and more to God

So good! I have God and now i have Costin! Not only that... i have wonderful wonderful
friends from high schools, Raffles hall and FFF schools... plus a life full of excitements and
wonders. Up and down like a roller coaster..

This is called a Shiok LIFE.

Come on la.. no problem! a little failure doesn't mean you are dead.

A little failure in life is better than no failures in life...you agree?

so jia you everybody!

ALSO!!

NEVER LOOK DOWN ON A ROTI PRATA!!!

I WON A BOYFRIEND!!

HALLELUJAH TO FOON SENG ROTI PRATA!!!!!!!!

2005-06-20T01:17:00.000+08:00

I lost my long post!!!!! Going crazy!! stupid blogspot!!

To put it in a nutshell, I love God.

CRY CRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAARHHRHAHRHARHRRHAHAAAAHR~~~~~~~~~~~

Re-jury

2005-06-18T01:15:00.000+08:00

Juz recieved an email from FFF school, our appeal for a re jury was successful!!

I was quite worried now.. whether Mr Tiu read my appeal letter..

I really hope not man....

Becuz i wrote what he told us in the meeting, something not very nice. But it's the truth.

Anyway, we are also approved to go NAFA in mid July, then re-jury in early August.

So what's my status now?

Half NAFAian and half NUSian hahaha..

Had a fight with my piano student just now... i was so angry, and i was trembling, i could feel it..
My organs were trembling like an earthquake inside and hence i have to raise my voice.

I only did that once to Yi le, cuz she screaming and banging the piano " WHY DO I HAVE TO PRACTISE?!?!!?! " And of cuz i have tolerated for long..until i couldn't hold it anymore.

I closed her book, said " Fine, don't need to practise anymore!"
"Kakak, can open the door for me?"
I stopped that lesson and i left, when i was standing outside, she admitted is her fault.
I left.

At nite her father called me " She is very sad lei....she cried and she said she will practise.."

I asked her to take over the phone, and she promised me she would not have that attitude again.

Recently, i found that she has grown up, the way she talked is different... and she is more disicpline compared to b4.. when i asked her to play one more time, instead of banging the keys, she would reply " okie! "

I am happy to hear that.

My advice to all the piano students, of cuz to myself as well.

(1) Be discipline.
(2) Be humble to learn.
(3) Be patient.
(4) Be receptive and accept your teacher's comment.
(5) Be able to accept failures, and learn from that. That's how we improved.
(6) Practise to perform. Not practise to practise.

Mom told me about lang lang to encourage me....

when Lang lang was in music school, the teacher scolded him " Play like that!! Don't study music anymore! Go do something else!!"

He never gave up neither did he lose his passion. In fact, he worked even harder.

And look at him now, a world reknown pianist.

IF you dunno about him, go google.com search for lang lang.

Like what Mr. Tiu always said, "we will not hear how you practise, we will only hear how you perform."

Sometimes, I couldn't accept how i performed too... totally blanked out in front of my class.. embarrassed and ashamed of myself.. it was perfectly fine when i practised in the room..but why the hell everything scrude up in the performance? why????

Why why why?? you don't understand why?

It's your mind.

Oh god..... can somebody advice me?
I've tried so hard and worked so hard to be a good teacher.
But in the end what did i get?

For those who concern about Lois case, she has been improving a lot and i told her mum.. even her scales, it's amazingly much much better now.. i am really very very grateful to her hard work..

Hard work pays. A Golden truth.

I will work hard too.

And i will record the hours of practices.

If i practise 5 hours a day, i deserve 2 Yakitori chicken skin from Costin.

If i practise 6 hours a day, i deserve a quality time with Costin.

If i practise 7 hours a day, i deserve a massage for my hands.

I don't want to practise more than 8 hours. I tried b4, and my hands hurt till the next day and i don't want to strain the muscles.

I don't care the result of the rejury.

I will just try my best.

Stay or leave, i will not care.

Even if i fail it again, i deserve a better place Daddy has prepared for me.

I always remember this.

Don't be so restless and panic over the obstacles in life. Let God put out the fire for you.

He is a forever ready fireman. hahahaha....

One day, will yu guo tian qing...

This is life.

The joyfulness in me is not fake, it is my nature. NO matter how big is the blow, one day i will stand up again. That's how i survive and i'm grateful to Daddy who has given me this joyful character and strength... keep going keep going..He is holding my hand all along.

I am glad with my life so far. I mean, the experiences...

I will not give up, because i know my children will be facing obstacles too when they grow up.

I want to be an example of them.

I never. So do you.

whoah back muscle pain pain.. type too much... talk to you guys again~ thanks for reading my blog ah! Although i don't know who actually reads...

aaaawwww.. you care for me!!! sooooo touched!!

BIG HUG HUG!!!!

muack muack!

A date with Costin

2005-06-16T01:22:00.000+08:00

I had a terrible nightmare again.. shall i say nightmare...hmm.. it's too real to be nightmare..

I went to another state of consciousness again..

Bloody hell..

This time round, a guy hugged me and touched me.

Followed by another one, trying to pull me down from the bed.

I told him, " I know God will save me!"

Again, i heard the noise ard 6am..the same noise i heard in my room in M'sia.

Did i tell you that i was attacked when i went back to M'sia?

Well, i was sleeping beside my bed, and within 15 mins i was attacked, my back was hot and i knew the thing came again.. i started to pray in tongues but my teeth was shut tight!!
So i moved my tongues behind the teeth, the words were no longer words.. juz prayed.
The teeth got even tighter!!!! HELL!!! everything became " zhizhuzholzhihzhlazhizyzho"
The back was really hot.

All of a sudden i woke up, and my whole body was cold. very cold.

That nite was fine, although i was scared. very scared.

The following nite was the nite i heard a noise.. tiny little noise. I will describe to you if you ask me.

Again, i heard it this morning.

bloody hell!!!

So scary....sobsob..

Let's go back to the topic, my date date with Costin.. seldom meet him nowadays, he is busy working.. same as me..sobsob..

There was a meeting with Dr. Ho again yesterday morning...i thanked him for all the advices and consultations.. I felt that, Mr Tiu dumped us.

And he let us zi4 sheng1 zi4 mie4.

He does not care.

He said " I thought of your future! not that i didn't! "

FUCKING BULLSHIT!

Neither did he reply me mail.

Cuz i was so angry after seeing my result, and i asked him to give me evaluation and stuff.

So Dr. Ho asked us to write in an appeal letter.

WRITE CLEARLY. HE SAID.

" I dunno how many times i have mentioned 'CLEAR' in this meeting...whatever you have told me, write down and Dr. XXX will look VERY CLOSELY into each case. "

Hmmmm.. was he trying to help us??

I don't know.

IF overlapping of institutions is not allow in Singapore, I will have to make a choice.

Becuz NAFA starts school in July. Aiyo!

See how it goes then....=)

Christ works in His mysterious and His special way...

I know there is a great future await for me. =D

So don't worry la!

Is this my fault to change my character when i teach???

And NAFA called me today, and told me that Mr. Adams has been very supportive and has recommended me to the 3rd year direct entry!!! I pray that i will go into 3rd year successfully!!

Also.....I just got a grade 8 student from Susan (Mr.Tiu's wife)!! And i'm going to teach her tmr... $70 per hour becuz i'm still a student. Susan was charging her $80 per hour.... hee..=)

Still very good. I'm happy! I can save it for my school fees!

I have a plan again...

Apply for MOE teacher training programme.. i dunno whether i'm still eligible for another tuition grant.. since this is an exceptional case.. we can always appeal for that..and i will finish my 3rd and 4th year in NAFA.. After getting a degree, i will take a 1 year post graduate training programme.. I will get paid within this year too.. After the training, then i will be a full time secondary school teacher, will be teaching Music elective programme.. And the pay will be around $2700.. which is really good compared to others.. like engineers.. truely..
I found out that Music and Arts teachers will be assigned to secondary schools. GREAT!! i prefer to teach secondary students. At the same time, i will still continue what i love to do.. that is to teach piano privately... Maybe earn a $1000 more teaching part time..I will then build up network in school and have a good reputation, maybe when the bond is up, i will resign and be a full time piano teachers... setting up my own studio.. And i plan to get 3 pianos at home. 2 upright and 1 grand.

So far, i have 2 pianos. One from me and one from Costin.. I will definitely get a grand years later.

I'm happy. hehe..

I don't know what happen to my students today!! Praise God!!
They are all good girls today!!!
They were never like this before haha.. Not as good!!

Not only having the right attitude, but also there were laughters throughout the lessons!!

They never complained. NEVER BARGAIN!! and they listen to what i said!!!

An Entry for You.

2005-06-01T14:39:00.000+08:00

I couldn't sleep last nite becuz of you. Costin called in the evening and told me what happened in my tagboard. "Lois typed."

I was shocked to know that was how you really think of me, and most importantly that was how you show respect to your piano teacher.. Maybe you think that i never show respect to you either..
But me, as a human, can't i express how i feel on my blog? And as you also admitted that what i wrote in the previous entry are not fake.

I double checked my previous blog entry right after i reached singapore... I couldn't stop thinking of what happened to us on my way back.

Here goes my explanation in any case you think i'm hurting you.

For secondary students, they will just give you a pissed look..... *This is true, isn't it? You know that... and have you ever thought of how i feel as a teacher whenever i see the pissed off look from you? Well, you said that you were hurt and i were not.. on the tagboard u mentioned "my god.i duno how u can feel hurt when u are the one hurting others first k..."

Girl...It's childish to think who hurt who first...and i don't want to talk about it.. you think about it yourself..

I feel hurt during lessons, whenever you gave me the look.. and when i talked to you, you didn't even give a damn to look at me...

Will this hurt you if you were me?

Think about it.

As if, i am a bitch... * this is how i feel whenever i am strict to you.. being naggy and advise you to practise hard... truely how i feel..i told you before.. together with your sister.. Maybe you forgot? i couldn't stand it and i told you guys "maybe you think i'm a bitch"

Lois... i couldn't change anything in your mind now and i know you hate me....come to think of it..maybe maybe i'm way too strict to you... i shouldn't have asked you to practise so much.. i should have let you do what you feel like to do... i shouldn't have force you and nag you to practise.. and i shouldn't be angry when i heard what you have prepared for me.

I apologize for being as a strict teacher. Dui bu qi.

i hope you can understand that.. i just want you to do well in the exam.. I never mentioned in my blog that you called me a bitch.. NEVER. But becuz of the attitude you show me in the lesson, i felt being one. And not that i never told you, me, as my friends all know so well, i am always being frank and i will express how i feel... happy or unhappy.

Truely, that was how i felt...... I was preparing a student for gd 7 exam last year, she was having that SUPER PISSED LOOK on her face.... just because i wanted her to do better for the exam.... i couldn't stand it, to see any of them having that "don't care" attitude.. don't practise, or even worse, DON'T RESPECT ME AS A TEACHER! *once again, respect.

Some of them just..don't listen! and keep doing the same old thing ALL OVER AGAIN!! *As i told your mother after your previous lesson. I was very disappointed.

I DON'T KNOW WHY?!??!?!? AARGGGHHHH!!!!
I WAS TOTALLY WASTING MY TIME RIGHT????? *Don't you think we are both wasting our time? You don't care about what i have taught you in the lesson and i have to repeat the same thing during every lesson, i cannot move on to teach. We are stucked by Note accuracy, countings, we can't even do dynamics yet!

IF YOU WERE ME, WILL YOU BE PISSED TOO?? * Think about it again

That felt horrible.. when you have been so patient to tell the student how to do, how to practise..
and in the end, you find that you have been repeating the same thing every week... they just don't listen eh... man! very tiring sometimes.... * Truely very tired....You need to be responsible as a student.. Listen to my every words and practise the right way... if not, i really don't know how to help you.

BUT not every student behaves like this.. and u know what, the student i mentioned above scored well in her exam, and i was proud of her, esp her 3rd piece, which is the one she practised the least, and the most risky one.. she scored 27/30 and the comments were good!!

See... i told you... everything comes from practices..

I forced her to come my house, practising for 4 hours straight for a couple of days...

Although she was pissed by those long hour practices... you see the result of the hard work!!

AGREE?? *hmmm.. seems that you never read my encouraging paragraph for you. I was really proud of you when i recieved the result, you even did better than your sister. I know you can do well whenever you want to.. but what i heard from your mother was that you never want to practise at home..How could i help you? I asked you to come to my house and practise.. And i proved to you that hard work pays.

A Genius is the one who has the ability to work hard without any complaint.

Everything comes from practice.

Exam is coming again...

AND I'M PISSING HER OFF AGAIN!!!! MUAHARHARHAR!! * this is a sarcastic sentence which i wrote to mock myself, not you.. once again, i was mocking MYSELF. I don't PLAN to piss you off.. You mentioned "Exam is coming again... AND I'M PISSING HER OFF AGAIN!!!! MUAHARHARHAR!! is that your responsibility too? "

Now i answer you. This is not my responsibility.

My responsibility is to teach the piano, to teach you whatever i know about music. In fact, i dislike the ABRSM exam system. If i have the choice, i will not send any of my students to sit for exam every year. Maybe juz gd 1,5 and 8. But sadly, this is also part of the culture in Singapore. Parents want their kids to go for exam so as to get the precious certificate. I talked to your mum, she also agreed with me.

I don't want music to become a burden to you.

Music is beautiful to me. Not a suffering.

I practised once in school, 9 hours with some break in between. In the last hour, my hands started to feel pain when i played.. I practised until i know i must stop or else i will strain my muscle. i cried when i talked about this to my mum cuz she thought that i never practised the piano..Costin even massaged my hands for me.. but i never complained, i was proud of myself being able to enjoy practising the piano...

In a way, even now when you are practising behind me, i dunno...maybe you are forced to come, or forced by me, to practise. My aim is to let you see the result of your hard work at the end of the day. I proved to you once, but seems that you still don't believe the power of practices.

Like jo said, we said mad things when we are mad... i agree.. so if my previous blog has hurt you, i am truly sorry of my mad words..

You are not the worst student i have. i think you misunderstood. Maybe you feel stressed of what your sister has progressed so far. Let me tell you this, you can do better than her.

She practised so she deserved the progress.

You will never know where you can reach.. i don't judge people like what the FFF school did.

"This is the best you can do."

I will NEVER judge you like this.

I am not a teacher who will do comparison.

If you really want me to compare. My worst student is definitely not Lois..

To conclude this entry. I want to apologize to Lois if in any case, my mad words have hurt her.
And i would also like to clarify that my blog entry has never insulted anybody. Plainly a blog for me to express my feelings and to tell my story..

Simple as that.

I will forget what you said about me..

Now i am forgetting......

what did you say? i forgot....

Well, we should all enjoy the music.. Let's finish this final practical paper, and we will have real fun.. maybe some jazz?? hahaha... Dr tony you will be my score supplier k!!

I am strict to you becuz i want you to do well.

If you are not my student, i will not care..

Don't care at all.

New Apartment!!

2005-05-29T15:26:00.000+08:00

Jo I miss u~~~ faster come back lei.... I accidentally deleted your sms, so i hv lost your contact!!

***Okie.. i know when u see this, u are already back home hahahaha!!!

You have sooooo much to update here!!!

Costin's parents are planning to move to Chua Chu Kang, cuz it's nearer to his sister's house...
Yea and i will move in once i get married...

WITH COSTIN!! HAHAHA!!

I hope there will be no changes in the future....=)

Went to see an executive apartment yesterday, it was really big!! 4 bedrooms with big kitchen and big living room... but i don't really like that particular unit, cuz the location is not as good compared to others...

FAILED!!

The price is around $350k... u see... it's still soooo much cheaper than a condo unit... If we buy a condo, it will cost you around $500k-700k!!

Somemore nowadays, the condo is getting smaller and smaller, not even bigger than a 5 rooms flat.. glam only la.. haha..

So might as well buy the executive apartment, and put 40-50k to do interior design??

Still cheaper right???

I pray that we will get a really really nice executive apartment..... near to mrt and bus interchange... And we will work together with a very nice and creative interior designer... hee..!

So happy!!!

*dreaming how to design the new home*

Anyway, let me introduce good stuff for girls!! Body lotion and hand lotion from bodyshop!!!

but emmm... the simei parents forgot to give me piano fees... today is the 2nd lesson already and i was supposed to receive my cheque during last lesson.. sobsob.. =(

Lai Lai Lai~~~Pictures of my Simei students!!!! 2 sisters... Yu xin and Qi Qi!!

This is Qi Qi.. the younger sister! very cute rite... and today she was a very good girll!! She is really cute when she plays the piano haha..

I love those students who listen to my words, and follow what i ask them to do without any complaints...

I don't understand why... Singapore kids and malaysian kids are really different.. i never had this kind of learning attitude when i was young...

What kind of attitude was i talking about?

Well.... something like...

HA?!?!?!???????!!??! *pronounce the HA as loud as you can, and hold it for 5 seconds*

AGAIN?!??!?!??!?!?! *pronounce the AGAIN as loud as you can, and hold it for another 5 seconds*

OR!!

For secondary students, they will just give you a pissed look.....

As if, i am a bitch...

Truely, that was how i felt...... I was preparing a student for gd 7 exam last year, she was having that SUPER PISSED LOOK on her face.... just because i wanted her to do better for the exam.... i couldn't stand it, to see any of them having that "don't care" attitude.. don't practise, or even worse, DON'T RESPECT ME AS A TEACHER!

Some of them just..don't listen! and keep doing the same old thing ALL OVER AGAIN!!

I DON'T KNOW WHY?!??!?!? AARGGGHHHH!!!!
I WAS TOTALLY WASTING MY TIME RIGHT?????

IF YOU WERE ME, WILL YOU BE PISSED TOO??

That felt horrible.. when you have been so patient to tell the student how to do, how to practise..
and in the end, you find that you have been repeating the same thing every week... they just don't listen eh... man! very tiring sometimes....

BUT not every student behaves like this.. and u know what, the student i mentioned above scored well in her exam, and i was proud of her, esp her 3rd piece, which is the one she practised the least, and the most risky one.. she scored 27/30 and the comments were good!!

Handsome bo?? THis is Shebo aka Zachary... One of my very good guy friend. Hahaha.. Yea, you are right! He also thinks that he looks very handsome in this picture... he is my high school classmate.. we used to sit together, and never paid attention during lessons, we sang, talked cock and it was really memorable...

We were both cheer leaders of Red house during 1999, we worked together and that was sooooooo god damn fun!! I would never forget how strong we were when we worked together!

He is a man with taste i shall say... getting more and more handsome that's for sure!

Most importantly, he is growing taller too! hahaha...

We will have bright future!! Don't worry and be patient...

You will be a great man i know...=)

YAY!!!! u..... know........wat......................!!!

2005-05-26T11:19:00.000+08:00

Me and Costin are going to design our very own room!!!

Yes!!

The room we are going to stay after we get married!!!

Muaharharharhar!!

Now his family is looking for an apartment, and they will move in first after renovations... hehehe..=P

His mum is really nice, she is planning to look for an apartment with 4 rooms,
Master Bedroom for Costin and me, another room for papa and mama, one room for guest or children, and one room for me to TEACH PIANO!!! isn't this great!!??!?!

And she also planning to buy another piano to replace the old one they are having now.. cuz it's too old to play, it's out of tune and the pedal is broken.. Then i can use the piano to teach piano!!

If that's the case, i will hv 2 pianos in my own studio!!

Air-conditioned it must be!

COOOOOOOOOOOL right!??!?!

His family is really good to me sobsob...

So i tell you, if you are a woman, the most important thing in your life, is to have a good husband...

"HOW TO FIND?!?! YOU THOUGHT SO EASY AH?!? BLOODY HELL!!"

"It's not easy at all..the life before Costin sucks big time! but it's easy in a way, u just need to pray, and ask God to give you one.. be patient and trust in his work.. He will NOT give you the Good one, but to give you the BEST guy in the world!"

"WAH PIANG! IF EVERYBODY PRAYS, THEN EVERY GUY IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD?!?! HOW CAN LIDDAT????? THEN WHO WILL BE THE BEST OF THE BEST?!?!"

"Well, the best guy for you might not be the best guy for other gals.. so.. There's no such thing as best of the best.. If you really love him, he is definitely the best guy in your eyes.."

Commit Suicide is the only way out??

2005-05-25T01:32:00.000+08:00

DAMN STUPID CAN?!?!?!

Juz read Shebo's blog..so sad... so sad.. bloody sad now..=(

i knew about this long time ago from my senior Gwee, cuz his msn nick was once "Kok Meow missing... anybody see him?"

I asked him about his nick, and he told me that my senior, his high school classmates was missing for a few days.. and the family was very worried..

I hope he went travelling without telling his family.. maybe he scared being scolded or whatever.. like what i always did.. Juz go travel first before i tell my mum.. i know this is really bad and irresponsible but i know my mum so well, she will confirm say a "BU YAO!!!" to me.. when i go back home, i'm not even allowed to go out to hv a drink with friends, cuz she doesn't like..she will ask my friends to come instead.. u see... sigh..even if i manage to go out, she will for sure be super pissed and unhappy.. " QU LA QU LA!! QU BAO TA LA!!"

Will u be happy even if u can go out?

Anyway.. i juz had a quarrel with her.. i dunno.. 2 of us hv the same character.. very strong in words we chose to use.. I was very sensitive as well.. i don't wanna talk about this in this blog..To simplified this, she wants me to work harder in my future..and said something which i don't like to hear! AS IF I NEVER WORK HARD??!?!? WAT THE HELL....i felt that all my effort that i had put in was a waste.. She didn't know how much i practised!!

RRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR!!!!!

I cannot stand this anymore.

"So did u mean i never put in effort?"

Then the quarrel started..

Da ge said that i was rude to her, i know it.. but i couldn't stand what she kept on saying!!! CAN YOU FEEL HOW I FEEL?? AAAARRRRGGGHHHH!!! AS IF I NEVER WORK HARD?!?!

sobsob..

DA ge said i am fake.. i talk sweetly to Costin and talk the other way to the others.. He said i'm FAKE.. i am fake.. I. AM. FAKE.

He said people will hate me by doing this. Especially girls.

My friends do u really hate me?

I can't control it.. that's the way i talk to my family!.. not that i don't want to talk nicely.. i talk normally! Just not as sweet and nice compared to my friends! i feel weird to talk to them like how i talk to u...

Because that is the way i used to communicate with my family.. it's not rude, it is just normal voice....

Do u hate me becuz of this?

I talk sweetly to Costin becuz he as well talks sweetly to me!

This is how a couple talk.

Friends tell me that my voice changes when i talk to Costin..Do u think this is fake??

But this is the way we talk to each other..

And i cannot talk like this to my family.. if so, that is BLOODY FAKE!

I talk not as sweet to my family becuz I AM NOT FAKE!!

He said ppl will hate me..

He said if i don't upgrade myself, Costin will dislike me oneday, will feel ashamed of me one day...

Just like what Peter did to Angela.. When he started to work as lawyer, he wanted Angela to read intellectual books, newspapers and stuffs...

Okie seems that, i am a total failure now...

I am fake and i am shallow..

But to me, i am not fake and i just don't like to read books!!!!

I prefer music than books..

He said i know nothing other than music...

So sad wanna cry liao......

Must i read books to be intellectual?

U tell me.. am i fake..? If yes.. i will improve.. and i will not talk sweetly to you and Costin anymore..

Yes you are right, i care of what ppl think of me...

AIYAH!!! so out of point now!! back to the suicide story.. u know, his body was found 4 days after the family reported to the police, at layang layang railway.. somewhere there? i don't know.. he left a letter in his sister's apartment, saying that he didn't want this news to be appeared in any newspaper.. he wanted to die peacefully..

Can you believe this?

Commit suicide...

I hate this.

Who are they? Costin's Parents, Costin's Sister's family, Costin's Uncle Andrew's family, Uncle Robin and Auntie Julie~~

Well, i thought we were heading to kukup, i was wrong! We were staying at Tanjong Piai.. Tanjung Piai has the distinction of being at the "Land's End" or the Southernmost Tip Of Mainland Asia. When u wake up, u will not see houses through the windows ( like kukup ), in fact, u will be sleeping on the sea.. yeaaa isn't this cool? when u look out from the window, sea is the only thing u can see..with ships in a far distance, birds, fish, and a lot a lot of MONKEYS!!! hahahha! As usual, the water is not very clean at this kind of place rite... haahhaha..

Here goes some of the pictures!

The ppl there are all Malay, but they are truely very friendly! Esp the monkeys!
Can you imagine a number of 30-40 monkeys beside you??? It was quite scary okie....
they screamed at you! A new experience for me haha! cool rite?

We didn't have any plan on the 2nd day, so we drove up north to Batu Pahat.. Along the way, I saw "Pantai Recreasi", "Pantai" means beach! Wow we were exploring along the way..We drove in, there were lots of coconut trees which told us that we were getting near to the beach!! People by the beach were Malays and Chinese. Hehehe a lot of nice sea shells on the beach! Me and Costin found a very cute little kitten!
And i will upload the picture soon once i have it k! We also flied kite by the beach! THIS WAS SOOOOOOOO FUN!!! And the maid also joined us! hahaha.. i like her, i think she is very kind and knows how to take care of the baby.. AFter that we went to The Summit for shopping hehehe.. bought pirated DVDs!!! And i met my cousin there hahaha...You know Batu Pahat is my mum's hometown rite? hehehe..I go BAtu PAhat during Chinese New YEar keke..my AH MA is there! She very old now le....

Okie, tell u wat i eat k... *slurp*

1st day lunch: SUPERB BAK KUT TEH at pekan nanas! the soup was DAMN NICE k.....
100 times better than the BEST bak kut teh in Singapore, which you can

Malaysia. Stop at Pekan Nanas!

1st day dinner: Seafood at kukup! we had my favourite sambal kangkong, chili crabs,

Open water and Hotel Rwanda

2005-05-18T23:11:00.000+08:00

Did u guys ever watch Open water and Hotel Rwanda??

These 2 movies really had an emotional impact on me....Juz rented few Vcds yesterday..I can't say i like open water but i definitely love Hotel Rwanda...

I watched Hotel Rwanda in cinema, with Costin..At 1st, i was thinking..
"Huh??? Is this going to be a lame show? All black all african..."

In the end, i cried for the movie...This is the best best movie i ever watched in my life..to me, much more better than Titanic..seriously..

"You are black! You are not even a negro! You are African! AND YOU WORTH NOTHING BUT JUST A COCKCROACH!!"

1 million people died.

All the Whites are able to get on the bus to escape from the war, even their dog!!!

Those with black skin, they are left behing in Hotel Rwanda, waiting to be killed.

Full of bribes.. Yucks!! Pui pui pui!!

Highly recommend! HOTEL RWANDA!! deng deng deng~~~~~

Open Water.. Simple and good! although it's so simple that i usually press forward..

From the opening till the end, 95% of the scene ---> one couple floating above the dark blue ocean, without knowing what is under their feet.. and obviously, the fish are not kind.. they are sharks. In the movie,the husband was bitten by sharks and died the next day. The wife, after kissing her husband's cheek, she let go of the dead body and witnessed the body to be eaten by one group of sharks, right in front of her eyes, the wife struggled off the jacket and drowned herself...

The ending was unpredictable.. i was tensed throughout the show.. keep on wondering what would happen next? couldn't really breathe, i was with them in the ocean..

Well, here goes the true story...

In 1998, Tom and Eileen Lonergan disappeared off the Great Barrier Reef after a diving company accidentally left them behind in shark-infested waters. Their bodies were never found.

Several months later, a fisherman 100 miles north of the site found a dive slate which recorded their thoughts. Some of the words had faded by months in the water.
Tom wrote "[Mo]nday January 26;1998 8am. To anyone [who] can help us. We have been abondoned on [A]gin court Reef by MV Outer Edge 25 Jan 1998 3pm. Please help us [come] to rescue us before we die. Help!!! "

Anyway, some ppl said that they were actually rescued by another boat and they just faked their death.. but i think this is ridiculous...!

I believe that they had died, either eaten by sharks or they committed suicide...

How sad.... don't watch.. it's just too sad to watch...

Cry cry...

But highly recommended too....

Weep weep...=(

I don't know... i hope this is a joke...

I'm disappointed with Albert Tiu

2005-05-17T14:12:00.000+08:00

I really don't know how to face Albert Tiu.. Am i blaming him?

Yes in a way, i blame him for not giving us any warning or indications and all of a sudden asked us to leave, just because during the jury day, he found that there's a difference in standard.. and 5 of us were eliminated, like he said, a game of American Idol.. What the hell?!??!???!? We are students! We came to learn!!!!!
They hv TONS of reasons and i'm sicked of talking to Dr. Ho.. He coudn't answer for Albert Tiu, well, Why don't YOU ASK ALBERT TIU TO COME FOR THE MEETING??!?!?!?!
I would prefer a confrontation with all of you..rather than " oh..i'm sorry i couldn't answer this.." Bloody irritating can....

Even the dumbest human being in the world knows that the chance for us to stay in this school till we graduate is impossible! It's soooo easy for the jury to give us an "F" if they really want us to leave..am i right? again, they will have TONS of reason to ask u to leave.. Wat the hell...

"Your hands are too small"
"Physical problem"

What the hell is this!?!?!???!

How can a student who shows improvement in the performance, asked to leave the school?

All of our efforts are like shit to them...Fucking shit!

They just want better students, or u can say, "Intermediate Performer" instead of "students"..

Well well... This is how this FFF school work, so as to achieve a world class music school...

I have been stopping myself from cursing this school..i wanted to..hmph! So angry!!!This is UNFAIR!!! UNFAIR UNFAIR UNFAIR!!!!

Give u a bit of the taste of your dream, and take it away when you are half way on it... isn't it coooooool??? The coolest thing in the world!

"I want the world to know bout this, I want the school to be condemned to be judged, and no students will dare to come, esp for the piano department. I don't care the teachers will lose their job... since they don't care about our future"
Am i evil?? Alright, this is the deepest deepest thought in my mind, i know it's a curse, i don't want to.. i never said it out, i never curse it out loud, this is just a thought..

Does Jesus curse?? If he never, i will not...

I believed that the whole idea was coming from Dr hecht, because he is the head of department.. and Albert just said yes yes yes... that's the way he is..

Like he said " That's the way i am, i seldom said negative things to ppl.."
Fine!! and we hv to suffer from this?!??!

A good performer might not be a good teacher.

That's all i want to say to u.
A performer trained in Julliard.
Does Julliard kick students out if they don't see u as a performer in the future?
If so, i think you are supposed to be a pure performer now.
Why do u apply for this school? Why do u need to KEEP this job?
Because u need to teach to survive.. Because u have a family to feed.

The future of all of us are the same, we all end up teaching, see Ong lip tat, see you yourself and Dr hecht as well as our school nice guy Paul Liang.

I see myself as a teacher, and why can't i pursue a performance degree even if i want to be a teacher?

I know i can. Just don't stay in this school. Spoilt market.

A good teacher with performance skill.

That's all i want to be. But the piano department in FFF school claims that there are too many pianists, and they don't see us as performers in the future. So they want us to leave.

I need performance skill to be a good teacher.

That's all i want to learn and what i want to teach in the future.

But the school stopped us from learning. COOLEST THING IN THE WORLD HUH??

Bloody hell meeting

2005-05-17T01:28:00.000+08:00

What's the purpose of the meeting if the person who talked was still Dr. HO????
How many times am i going to listen the same old thing all over again???
I yawned because i was mentally freaking tired..

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!??!??!?!!?!?!??!??!

(a phrase learnt from my da ge hahaha..
he always said FUCK all of a sudden, or HIT THE WALL AND DIE all of a sudden too, u know why? His way of releasing the stress from work hahahahha)

NUS can't do anything about it because each faculty runs individually..
SO YOU TELL ME HOW!?!?!?

We are desperate and we are helpless..

My tears really dried up and i have lost hope in this FFF school.. seriously..

So hopeless....

Life is really really sucky sometimes.. it's full of joy at the same time there are bitterness..This is sooooooo bitter yucks... puke! Pui Pui Pui!!!

I never called anybody after the meeting, not to my parents, my brother, not even to Costin.. i was stoning and i totally forgot to call anybody.. I was really on my own.. It's quiet and what i heard was my footsteps that's all... i totally forgot that i had a handphone to call... Now as what i could recall, i totally forgot what exactly i was thinking about...

I was totally in despair and don't really feel like writing another appeal letter..

Bloody hell

okie tt's all for the bitching part..

I know i will be successful one day, with Daddy's mighty hand holding me tight.... And i have so many stories and experiences to tell my children next time..
i must be a model of my children.. so i will not give up my dream..
Like i said, be brave and walk on......
One day when i look back, i will not regret...

Muahrharhahhra sounded so noble.. cool~~~~~

Meeting and Swimming...

2005-05-15T23:27:00.000+08:00

I'm dying for getting a degree and hopefully i can graduate in 2 years time..

I don't want to spend more than 2 years just as to get the certificate.. I have spent my golden 4 years in NUS my friends... 6 years is the maximum for me..

I don't care where i study, as long as i complete what i want to do..

Why why why???? Why my life so difficult yet so easy??

Difficult, my cap is above 4 yet i was told to leave the school..I told Mr Tiu how dumb was i to pursue my dream..Just because i had the courage to do so...

Easy, i have no financial problem, i am fine with the NAFA school fees, I teach a number of students which provides me a life, I have family, friends, even Costin's family to support when i was lost.. I have Daddy who watches over me, that is the reason why.. i am always in peace nowadays, having the bo chup mode.. i will just follow the path that He shows me, instead of pulling Him, to a place where i wanna go... i know, the path that is in front of me, will be the BEST for me.. although i still dunno wat it is going to be...but nvm!! we will see k!?? ahahahahahhaha!!

OKie, tmr there will be another meeting with Registra office.. then go for swimming!! damn.. so fat now paiseh to wear swim suit..siao liao..
