"If I Were A Boy" by Beyonce

2009-04-24T13:17:00.005+08:00

Don't be alarmed when you hear Beyonce singing. I pressed the stop button before it finished because it's really awful!!

However... ... this turns out to be a hoax. Haha. I had a good laugh over it and was just thinking that this video could make a wonderful April Fool's gift if uploaded earlier. =P

Hi girls and guys!

Regarding the outing last Sunday..

Hope that the misunderstanding between Huishan and Zhihao has been cleared. And sorry for the lousy organisation on my part.

My apologies for setting the venue for dinner, then changing it from Waraku to Pu Tien, then the late notice for meeting 45 mins earlier.

(Had to make reservations because of the large group size; Waraku was full with their reservations that evening; Pu Tien only accepted 6pm and 8pm reservations and their 8pm reservations were full.)

But more importantly, to those who came..

Thanks for coming!

Thanks for being on time!

Thanks for your spontaneity!

And thanks to the people who helped make the outing a good one in one way or another!

To those who couldn't make it, thanks for your responses too!

Hope you liked the food at Pu Tien. Hope future outings will be even better!

9 out of 10 singaporeans use singtel as their communication network..
probably our squad is having the same statistic.
However, do we really communicate much with singtel?
No..it's costly..especially with everything getting more and more expensive
So..this blog is a way for us to know how each of us is getting along..
for u know..it's free!
Any ideas on how to keep this blog alive?
Maybe we can have a discussion on this?

A small Trivia

2007-11-12T15:57:00.000+08:00

Look what money has turned our lives into?

Taken directly from Wiki
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exam

History of Test/Examination
Up to recent centuries, school examinations were conducted orally. Students would have to answer questions posed by teachers in Latin, and teachers would grade them on their answers. Written examinations were invented at Cambridge University, England in 1792 by professors who were paid by piece-work and realised that written exams would earn them more money.

And this is for the non-football fans..

some stuff abt uni...

2007-06-17T22:00:00.000+08:00

Hey guys,

university life is starting.. feeling excited abt it?? Haha.. anyway I think it would be nice to share some of my experiences… so that you can a preview n noe wats in stored for u… its gonna b a long post.. so here goes…

1. Join Orientation Camps.

Honestly speaking I think my uni life would be totally different if I had skipped the business freshmen orientation camp. You make friends in the camp. You get to know people before the actual school starts and usually those people who go for the camps would be the active ones in the faculty, which includes you. this is important because you need to get urself involved in activities to lead an enriching uni life. You get to noe seniors who would help you bid for ur modules, plan ur timetable, tell you inside info abt the classes, professors, etc. N you can buy their used textbks from them at a lower price! Haha.. most imptly, you can make use of this opportunity to find like-minded frens for company for all future activities that u wish to participate in… n you noe who to do projs wif n take classes wif… coz it is terrible to do projs wif ppl who tend to slack.. ur grades will b affected.. so spot e zai ppl for e benefit of ur grades.. hahahaha…

2. keep urself aware of activities n events going on in ur faculty and sch.

There are many opportunities such as competitions, scholarships, student exchange programs, NUS overseas college program, summer schs, etc, for u to take part in. this adds colour to ur uni life coz this is the last time u get to do all these before gg to work. Actively participate! So u will have a very exciting n fun uni life n it will look gd on ur resume.. J

3. Try to stay in hall for at least one semester.

I m not really a hall person n not that I enjoy hall life a lot. But I feel that hall is an essential part of the uni experience. Again there are many many activities for u to join n u have to participate in order to get points to stay on. Making frens, staying out on ur own, having ur frens as ur neighbours, late nite running, mahjong, suppers, gossip n drinking sessions, a v diff experience altogether. N u only have to wake up 15min before classes.. heh…

4. Study!

Haha.. pls rem to study when doing all e fun stuff…usually most ppl dun do too well in their first semester coz they play too much.. so to gain an edge over the rest.. do well for ur first sem… it would b much easier later on to maintain ur grades… dun think that its only e first sem n its not impt coz its e most impt n its v tedious to try n pull up ur grades after that… seriously… plan ur classes early n carefully… esp if u wanna go for exchange.. rem to complete the core modules first.. n basically u have to find out abt stuff early to increase ur awareness… n rem to b in e gd bks of ur tutors n profs…

5. go for an overseas stint, b it summer sch, exchange or NOC.!

Really fun n a v diff experience.. only once in a lifetime.. n they r usually partially subsidied…

6. lastly, if u have any queries, u can always ask e girls…

coz we have already been in uni for 2 yrs.. n we r so nice we will try to help as much we can.. haha… I think uni is e most fun out of all the yrs of education.. so look forward n enjoy it! E above mentioned r my experiences in NUS Business Sch n Kent Ridge Hall… so it may not b exactly e same for NTU, SMU n other faculties but should be generally similar…

Pardon me for my long-windedness,
Granny VaL.

HK Drama fanatics!!

2007-06-15T21:43:00.000+08:00

I just finished watching this HK drama con-currently broadcasting in HK too. Check out the link:
http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/heart_of_greed/frontpage/index.html

If u are into HK drama, i highly recommend this drama for the fact that:
1) From my experience in HK drama, this is a good one.
2) It has the highest viewer rates in HK television for a HK drama.
3) It's the 2nd highesr viewer rates in HK television for worldwide drama..just behind Da Chang Jin.

So what are u all waiting for?
If u are too free at home, rent the drama and watch to kill time.
If u are too busy with work, rent the drama and watch to relief urself from the stress.

45th Ann

2007-04-16T10:51:00.000+08:00

hi Guys n Gals,

2nd June will be our NP 45th Anniversary. May like to make a trip down if you are free.
It's held @ the new campus at Mount Sinai, aka old RJ campus.

Anyway, without knowing it, it has been 5 years since we had our 40th Anniversary, when we slogged through the saturdays and holidays tying gadget and structures, doing sourvenirs, setting up the stages, anything except for sitting down and enjoying the celebration. we have always been doing things for the sake of others. (who are the coordinators by the way?)

And if we start counting from Sec 1, we have known each other for around 8 years plus. So many things had happened in these few years. The occasional fervent spat (an oxymoron?) between the boys and girls squad, results always been the boys remain as silent and lost as possible, the vying of certain perceived more prestigious NCO posts (a delusion of grandeur), and so many events completed in time and toil.

or rather, so many things not happening after we ended our POP with tears and joy, graduated from dunman high, and later after JC after NS and the girls into Uni. Outings become a rare and orchestrated affair, in the sense we have to wait for Xmas or year end for a much-awaited meet up.

i think if we looked back on time, we will have found ourselves childish to do certain things. for that instant,perhaps such behaviours were inevitable, and necessary. Whatever it is, who's not glad that after 8 years, we still have a chance to meet up and chit chat once in a while (having topics to chat abt), set up a squad blog for blabberish and not dissolved into nodding acquaintances.

i'm thankful for every sporadic outings we have.
and for all the stuff we have done together.

Pit Stop no. 2 : East Coast Park Jetty

'Judge : Last entry at 1630. You all have been eliminated from the race.'

Was supposed to visit Changi Chapel to see the murals , which were highly recommended by Wei Biao. Unfortunately , we arrived just a little too late. Maybe if I had not ordered that char kuay teow.... Hmmmmm...

A clarification

2007-03-26T14:57:00.000+08:00

To all ladies out there:

I AM SINGLE AND AVAILABLE

Please don’t listen to "brucmerit" (pardon my ignorance but whos that?), he is trying to turn me into a gay. So... is there a welcome party for me into the NP Bachelor Club?

On a lighter note, something I found on youtube.

SOS!!! Pls send me your contact no. to me again!!!

2007-03-26T12:46:00.000+08:00

My hp is spoilt and it's beyond repair!!! So all the stuffs in it are all gone: My songs, pictures and videos. MOST IMPORTANTLY, ALL MY CONTACTS R GONE!!! (as i had 500 contacts and my SIM card can only stored 250 nos. only so i had no choice) In addition, all those that are stored in my SIM are old one, so some of the no. change might not be in there too... I have not much contacts left!!! *sob*

So I will like to appeal to all of u:Pls kindly SMS, leave a comment or tag your contact no. with your name for me to save your contact again k??? (Sorry for all the inconvenience caused!)

Currently, I am keeping a look out for a new phone.
Thinking of:
1) Motorola Razor V3i or V3xx or red
2) Nokia (the chunky and bulky phones)
3) Sony Ericsson k601i etc
do let me know if u all have any comment or other recommendation of which phone i should buy or not to buy k? thanks:)

Regards
Huiqing :)

"Eh start posting some stuff le. i start the ball rolling don't let it stop." - bang bang

Due to some oversight on my part i have just been prematurely retrenched. By 2 whole days! Aww..thats like a hundred dollars gone.

They say you won't know how to treasure what you lost till you lose it. And in a way i have been so busy with overtime and extra jobs and lessons that the prospect of two whole days offs...i gladly welcome with outstretched arms. Of course if it stretches itself into next week..hmm not so good.

Watched The Departed over the weekend and on a whim decided to download Infernal Affairs to watch again. Same weekend that The Departed won Oscars for. Undoubtedly its a good movie..but it is a remake. So whats the deal with the honours eh? Whats more...its a scene by scene remake of an already good movie...imo the better one. Thats like giving song of the year to a cover...

hallo!
