Short Post.

Today after class was about to go home and Wayne was on his bike. We were talking when all of a sudden @#$%^&*%@$! Stupid bird shitted on me head. How 'LUCKY' am I? I miss the two guys : ( no wonder am so moody.


Take care.

Veel plezier.

PS: Finally got to download Hey Jimmy! by HAV (Itz a Japanese song)

Two In One

Well...I'm going to talk about what had happened yesterday and today. Nothing great so...no big HOOHA or anything K?

Yesterday, finally got our Catering Science result back and the highest score is 49/50. We were all wondering who could be that person. I told Elizabeth to look out for someone who is looking humble. I'm not the highest eh...so please don't look/think that it is me. I scored 47/50 lost three marks from MCQ. Well...the humble person is none other than Jayson.

Hmm...OK, during POC (Principle of Cooking) Mr Teow taught us how to make Chicken Picatta which will be in our exam. Oh, exam will be on Week 10, Tuesday and we will have to prepare...

- Beef Consomme w/ Julienne veg
- Chicken Picatta w/ Tomato Concasee Sauce
- Glazed Carrot (tourned)
- Sauteed Kailan/and Broccoli
- Buttered Noodles

DOOM...this is like SO many to prepare... anyway, back to my story.

Well, after the demostration of preparing stuff then he didn't teach but it was class interaction. He continued where he had stopped, he would pick one of us randomly to come down in front of the class and talk and SING! ALAMAK...laughed SO SO much at my classmates those being called up. Smart Andi told him to call one of the girls and O_o I got called up. He didn't get my name right, he called me Catherine but they corrected him that I'm Christine. He talked to me and then said, 'I heard they told me that you're good at singing. Can you sing for the class?' I was like O_O 'OH MY FREAKING #$%@!' Well...I said that I would sing Frank Sinatra's The Way You Look Tonight but ALAMAK...brain went blank couldn't think of the lyrics. I called out to Prathap to sing along with me but he refused so I asked him to write out part of the lyric of Fly Me To The Moon. K...and so I sang and he got some of me classmates to describe me as in what they think of me.

Erm...then Food Knowledge was nothing much, just watched some videos on coffee and eggs.

Saturday...which is TODAY! Anyway, I was soooo tired and I kinda 'dragged' myself out from bed. I slept well...but good thing me dad drove me to school. Beginning of the day before I could even start of class, I was like wondering to myself whether could I hang on throughout the day. I DID! Was also happy coz Mr Teow liked my presentation of the food I served. OK...better not get too cocky or anything, I mean I got to present well and learn to be creative and COOK WELL TOO! Practical exam coming...better not screw it. Must present well...and be one of the best amongst the rest. OK...from this point you can see how proud and ambitious I am...which is NO GOOD so I better be back to the pessimist. URGH...I don't know eh...be who I am and don't change.

Today, went jogging for 30 minutes I could have pushed myself to jog longer but I didn't. Ended up having Japanese food for dinner at Ichiban, Great World City. Great...there goes my 30 minutes jogging effort hehehe...Hmm, actually after jogging I had my frozen yoghurt. I bought yoghurt a few days ago and placed into the freezer :P but when I wanted to consume it; it was too HARD thus I placed into the fridge and waited.

Japanese food is one of my favourites and yesterday (Friday) I had Japanese food for lunch at the food court 'Koufu', West Mall. Had that set meal a few times already...$5 not too bad. Well...I realised that I seem to have Japanese food every week. YIKES! Either becoming a habit or addictive.

I'm missing Mr Bump...no idea why but it is understandable because I still like him and I know I should be getting over him which I had told myself. I didn't do it eventually as it seems like it. I miss my dear sweet Eric too...TOMORROW IS SUNDAY! YAY! Eric will be on...Get to talk to him. Wow...in the car, I saw me blue pants had slight blood stain so yeah, it means my Oh Mighty Gross One is here...I hate it whenever it is here but at least I don't have to worry about when is it going to come. Am still FREAKING downloading that Japanese song, an end theme song from Peacemaker (a new anime showing Wednesday to Friday nights at 10PM on channel Central). It is called, Hey Jimmy! I mean the song. I'm also downloading one of my ex's favourite song, Buddy Holly by Weezer. Not the song eh but the music clip.

Thatz about it...

TAKE CARE!

VEEL PLEZIER!

PS: If you ever got burnt by touching something hot or anything, don't leave it running under water coz you will get blister filled with water. You should apply cream or oil it. This is said by Jayson and yeah, I believe him so you better do as what he had suggested.

Oh yeah...been watching Child of Our Time by BBC which is showing on Central. It is one interesting show which is nice to watch. Did you know that guys' ring fingers are longer than the index while the girls' ring fingers are shorter than the index. If the girl's ring finger is longer than the index then maybe she will tend to be tomboyish. So...those who have newborn kids who are toddlers now, check out their fingers so you will know : )

Untitled by Simple Plan

I open my eyes

I try to see but I’m blinded by the white light

I can’t remember how

I can’t remember why

I’m lying here tonight

And I can’t stand the pain

And I can’t make it go away

No I can’t stand the pain

How could this happen to me

I made my mistakes

I’ve got no where to run

The night goes on

As I’m fading away

I’m sick of this life

I just wanna scream

How could this happen to me

Everybody’s screaming

I try to make a sound but no one hears me

I’m slipping off the edge

I’m hanging by a thread

I wanna start this over again

So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered

And I can’t explain what happened

And I can’t erase the things that I’ve done

No I can’t

How could this happen to me

I made my mistakes

I’ve got no where to run

The night goes on

As I’m fading away

I’m sick of this life

I just wanna scream

How could this happen to me

I made my mistakes

I’ve got no where to run

The night goes on

As I’m fading away

I’m sick of this life

I just wanna scream

How could this happen to me

(It reflects a little of how I feel for him...)

To Shalini: Well...I will cook for you but just got to find the right time, ja? Yesterday, I just didn't feel like coming MSN Mess. just after talking to Tall Guy. I don't feel like going on MSN Mess. today either. I don't know when I'll come on MSN Mess. Doubt he'll miss me...feeling down, could be PMS. I don't know. I'll probably come on during the weekends or maybe I won't. On second thought, I will coz I need to know how his soccer game went and wish him to have fun and a great time in his life in his new school. I'll come on when I feel that I'm ready. Probably when I have gotten over the feelings for him (which I doubt) and ready to talk to him. He'll be starting school next week so I guess I won't be seeing him online often. Somehow, I think he doesn't care anymore. He isn't the Tall Guy whom I used to know he has changed, just different compared to when I first started to talk to him (April last year). I know it is selfish of me for not being on and letting you wonder yesterday and today. Anyway, this also keeps me away from distraction, could use the time to do my research for me project. Don't worry...I'll tag you when necessary and I'll return but I don't know when.

I hope you're feeling well and gotten your feelings straighten up for those two. Take care and relax. Don't go all cranky and stress up that you fall ill. I know you will ace your coming examination and be able to study in NUS, I got the faith in you and don't forget to smile and talk to the person (you do know who I'm hinting about). Will be waiting for you in 3 months time *winks* My exam is in 2-3 weeks time...I'll see you around.

To Drea: Ah...still so sweet and nice, thanz for not forgetting me : ) My guy is fine, just that he was supposedly to return next month (September) but after what has happened in England; he is now stucked in Iraq. No idea when he'll return home. Thanz for being there and willing to lend a ear if I needed some hearing out. April eh...OF COURSE I haven't forgotten that 10kg dog (or has she lost some weight?) Oh yeah...her thighs like chix thigh hehehehehe I don't mind cooking them. Probably stew them MUAHAHAHAHAHA...then again, you know that I'm kidding with you.

Hey, glad to see that you're happy once again and that is really nice. You tend to realise that it isn't your fault or anything and that it is a good thing that he broke off. You mustn't have any regrets. Should be glad coz if he wouldn't have called it off, you wouldn't know his true self and you wouldn't have met this great guy, Edmund. Right? Or am I wrong? *Worried* Oh well...I guess your studies are doing really well : ) so keep it up. I visited the site hehehe can't believe that Especially For You is still ALIVE! I mean you still kept it going which is great and nice going on the webby. I can't do such a thing (as in creating a site) :S YIKES! Thatz all I have to say so take care and hope to see you around. Have fun too!

First Practical Test in SHATEC

Well...for practical test yesterday all of us had to prepare the followings:
Appetizer
- Cream of Mushroom Soup
Main Course
- Roast Chicken with Gravy
- Tourned Carrot (glazed) & Zucchini (sauteed)
- Pilaf Rice

When it comes to practical, my class is being split into two groups. Group 1 and Group 2 (I'm in Group 2) and Group 1 is under Mdm Flora while I'm under Mr Teow. For practical test, Mdm Flora marked my group and Mr Teow marked Group 1's. Mdm is known to be somehow stricter than Mr Teow that should explain those in Group 1 getting such high gradings. For my Cream of Mushroom Soup, I scored 3.5/5 am not so happy about it. She told me that my onions were not chopped finely and that my soup should be served very hot. Er...I waited and waited for my turn thus of course itz kinda luke warm instead of HOT.

Such in a hurry because I waited so long for her to mark my soup before moving off to do my main course. You see we had to present the soup at 9:30AM to 10AM so I waited more than 15 minutes...queuing up. Anyway, did my pilaf rice and DAMN shitty arse! I forgot to add the FREAKING chicken powder thus when I presented my main course it tasted kinda blend except for onion...Oh you know I waited sooooooo long again for my turn that my food nearly want to 'collapse'. You see they like to pile the food high or something for Western. I made me rice shaped into a cornical shape. Placed the chix around it and carrots & zucchini in between, my carrots were going to sink under the chix and not be seen coz waited and waited...I mean in real, OF COURSE you serve the food immediately and the food look good and warm. Waited and waited. When it came to my turn, she said she like my presentation and it was the best in my group. How nice...YAY but the flaws were...zucchini, needed salt, plate needed to be warm...pilaf rice, needed to add chicken powder and sauce needed to be VERY hot. OK...nice, warm plate but if I do get to do that...I guess it'll be cold when it comes to my turn coz I FREAKING had to wait sooooo long!

In the end, I'd scored 17.something/20 and I heard some scored 11.something but from the other group, they freaking scored sooooo high. Thatz right, Mr Teow is so lenient...BOOHOO I want Mr Teow to mark mine...I mean, yes it is good to let a strict teach mark and such but marks also make me feel happy. You know I like being one of the top people, yeah? Itz OK, strict teach marked...you see and compare; my standard even when I scored slightly lower...I'm better than some of them (marked by Teow). *Psst...those are words of encouragement for myself so those from me class...don't take it to heart*

Thatz all I got to say about my practical test. Today I had IT practical and last week, we had our practical exam for IT. Today she told us that only two of us did'nt have the Excel in the diskette thus FLUNK! ALAMAK...now I'm soooo FREAKING worried that I didn't save my Excel into the floppy. I FREAKING don't want to flunk. Knowing me so well...you will know how I will feel/be when it was me who didn't save the Excel. She wouldn't tell me whether I was the one who didn't save it to the floppy.

Take care.

Veel plezier.

Cook

Great...today, they enjoyed the dinner which I had prepared.

Roast Chicken
Buttered Broccoli
Glazed 'Tourned' Carrot
Pilaf Rice

Hmm...I'm just FREAKING afraid of this coming Tuesday. Afraid that I wouldn't be able to present at the time they want.

Am sooooo happy that my guy likes the jackets I got for him : ) glad that I got to talk to him. I just hope US pulls out soon. Just hopefully he returns before 07. It'll drive me crazy but I'll wait...no matter what, I'll wait.

To Rong, any guy in my life? Yes, if not...why would I talk about love? Yes...I changed in dressing but not character. I can't always be dressing that way even when I'm old. You change too so did Drea et cetera. Everyone change...in dressing and probably in character wise. For me, character wise eh...a little but still the same me. Hope this reply answers to your comment :D

Thatz all...

Take care.

Ordinary Day

Well...yesterday, I went to Bossini and got a white tube which have detachable straps. I was tempted to get a top for Tall Guy. With a big number '23' but I wasn't sure whether he likes that number. Yet also, I wasn't sure whether should I stop spoiling him with gifts. I can't help it.

Hmm...school was pretty fine. I think my Catering Science teach marks papers really SLOW. Last week we did the test (we only have one Catering Science class which is only on Friday) and till now she hasn't finished marking them. She is still marking the MCQs! Oh my goodness...just how long will she take to mark MCQs? They're the easiest to mark. We asked when will we get the papers back and she answered that hopefully she could return before the term ends. WHAT?! Let me guess...she marks two MCQs papers per day? Probably that could be the reason why she is taking ages. I think I'll get it back when I'm six feet deep underground with my Catering Science Exam paper result. OK...here we don't really bury except for the Muslims. We cremate dead people...so I'll be ashes along with my exam results. See...am talking crap so please ignore this paragraph. Too bad, you just wasted your time reading this hehehe...

Next! Well...Tuesday will be my cooking test so HOPEFULLY I could finish it on time if now SCREW MYSELF. I got to complete my proj by next Sunday hopefully. I can't wait for this coming weekends so I could talk to my sweet sweet Eric. I'm going to distance myself from him. I have to learn not to be too giving. Prathap, my classmate adviced me that and I guess I should because he is a guy and he, himself also admitted that guys can never always be trusted. Right. I must play hard to get and I think Eric is kind of taking me for granted a little and getting demanding. Please don't let him be Tieme.

Anyway, today...my classmate, Elizabeth came over to my place to do a little proj (Food Knowledge) and then we headed down to Orchard Road and walked in Takashimaya. I saw this sweet look umbrella which can't be used for rain but only for sunny days. I don't really hide away from the sun. Well...it is sweet because it has lace on the sides. It was selling at 50% off but decided not to as I told myself to save save save. Oh today, I bought another tube from Bossini but this time it is PINK! Can you believe it? I bought something pink to wear and I'm never a fan of pink but now...I kinda accept this freaking colour BUT it still isn't my favourite colour. I think I have gone all soft and feminine. I had KFC for lunch and I am soooooo freaking fat. I need to lose weight so yup, I got to stick to my plan and that is to keep going jogging on every Saturday. Ahhhhh...tomorrow I'll be having cooking class. We will be cooking, Beef Consomme; Pilaf Rice; Turned Carrot (glazed) and Zuchinni (sauteed) and Roasted Chicken (knots). On test day (Tuesday), instead of Beef Consomme, I would be dong Cream of Mushroom. Anyway doing the Beef Consomme is still a good practice because that will be tested in EXAM!

Anyway...thatz about it. 15 minutes to Inuyasha and I'm going to get ready to watch it. I'M HAPPY THAT TALL GUY IS BACK! Tomorrow will be his 19th birthday YAY! Today is Edwina's birthday and she is alos 19 today! I know I won't be seeing him during the weekends. I don't know...was great to see him but he doesn't really seem all excited to see me. It feels like I was redundant.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TALL GUY!

Thatz about it so see you around.

TAKE CARE!

VEEL PLEZIER!

Afraid...

I'm afraid of TWO things at the moment...LOVE and the other is SCHOOL

Afraid that what they always say is true...Beginning of the relationship is ALWAYS like honeymoon and then it gradually became too sucky thus couldn't get along. I'm just worried that it will happen in my case. I have half in mind to ask him that I know so far the girls were the ones to hurt him in his past relationships but will he be the one to hurt me after all he had gone through. Somehow a little revenge but it doesn't seem so. I don't know. Knowing me so well...I'm hardly right. I love one...and I like one so much. It is hard to let go of the one whom I have liked for a year but then again...I love the other so so much that I really want him to be the one for me. To be my husband for life. I love him sooooo much. I can't decide yet...but I guess to go with the flow. I want him to return home safe and sound as soon as possible. I really miss him now...I really do. In fact I do miss both of them. Talking about missing people...I'm missing my Sampan Girlies too...

For school...I'm freaking worried about my POC (Principle of Cooking) proj at the moment and then my exam...SCREW IT...Practical Test for POC will be this coming Tuesday 23rd August, I am sooooo freaking slow at preparing food thus presentation if submit it passed the actual time, 3 marks will be deducted. I'm sooooo SCARED!

I just have this quote for myself...and I hope I really mean it. From today and onwards...'I have to be prepared for the worse which has yet to come...'

Thatz all I have to state...


Take care.

Veel plezier.

Balloon

I drew this for Mr Berendsen on 9th August (National Day, SG turned 40) early early early morning before the sun rose. (Was glad that he found that funny)

I want to live here some day...
