So far so good ...
Haven been blogging for days ... That's because... There's SO MUCH to do that half the time i'm not in my room! Or at least when i'm in my room i'm just too lazy to blog ... =P But I know that if i don't ... My roomie (Juan) will come after me! So ya ... I better blog... Coz she went thru all the trouble to set this up for me! Right roomie? =P
alright... For this past week ... It's just school, grocery shopping, eating & slping! haha ... Kinda mundane i would say ... Classes was kinda boring ... It really makes me drowsy! Each time i'm only awake after the 2nd break! Which is bad coz it means 2/3 of the lesson is gone! =X But i would say that Marine Insurance is not too bad as of now ... I just need a bit more slp to stay awake ... But I'm totally clueless when it comes to accounting ... need to start reading up! (Dunno if that day will come anytime soon..)
Alright, let me post some pictures we took for this week ... So that you guys will know what I've been up to!
25th of Aug
Karen got me to pose with this organizer... It's too small to be seen, but it says "party time!"
Was just too bored during break that we start taking pictures!
This is what happens when you get Linkesh to take a picture for you - He will be in the picture but not you!
Ain't I studious? haha ... Well ... It's fake.... I got Karen to take this for me ... =P26th Aug
We were bored at the station while waiting for the train back home! =P
The Devils (Top) & the Angels (Bottom) in the train! =P
Hand in hand! Looks so cute! =P
27th Aug
Took bus 37 to Oslo S
& then we went for Kebab at Oslo S... 3 of us shared a MEGA kebab... It's nice... For once we din hafta cook for ourselves... =P
Alright ... Enough for now ... I still have more pictures taken this week ... I will post it up once i get it from dada ... So check back soon for more pictures! =)

Potluck!
Last saturday, we went to the police station to get our permit or visa kinda thing ... We waited SO SO long for it! From 11 plus in the morn till abt 3 plus 4 in the afternoon! It's crazy la! But well, since it's at gronland... We went to do a bit of grocery shopping & we went to the flea market! Kinda crowded but it's first time at their flea market.. So ya .. Just went to see see look look .... Manage to get some stuff there ... So not too bad ...& for once in my life i actually wanted to get an umbrella! haha ... =P
Dunno what we are looking at also ...
At one of the provision shop at gronland doing grocery shopping!
Outside the police station ... Still have abt 100 more ppl to go before it's our turn! That explains why we are taking pictures... =PThen at night we had potluck with many ppl! Zhenghao, Yong Jie, Terry, Toon, Karen, Louise, Brian, Hong Yuan, Bing zong, Kai Lun, Victor, Kenneth, TK & me! Although there was many of us, & it's kinda squeezy, the guys was nice enough to give up the seats to the girls... hehe ... So ya ... Poor guys ... We had so much food that night! But it was like so so good! We had, Curry chicken contributed by Brian & Hong Yuan... Sweet & sour Pork by Terry & Zheng Hao... Potato & Onion eggs by Kenneth... Bak Kut teh & fried bean sprouts by Toon, Karen, Lou & me ... Ma po tofu, rice & vege by Bing Zong, Kai Lun & Victor ... & the mini flutes (The baguettes) was nice n crispy! Everything was simply yummy! =P
We had so much fun eating & after that we played games & drink! Lucky i didn't get forfeit too many times ... If not sure die! haha ... But i had my share of laughter & fun that night... Really enjoyed myself! & hafta thanks Yong Jie & Louise for washing the dishes after that! =)
Karen starting on the bak kut teh!
The pork looks kinda gross isn't it... Like so much ... But well, it's for 13 ppl...
Bak Kut teh in the making ...
Our beansprouts with ham & mushroom!
Everyone in the kitchen! Some of them are late & not here yet ... & well, i was the one who took the picture.. =(
All our yummy food!
We are still waiting for a few to join us ...
Yong jie & Lou was the dishwasher for the night! But it's hard on them coz there's so much to wash! Thank you!
The game begins ...
I guess it's my turn coz everyone's looking my way ... haha ...Monday, August 25, 2008 @ 12:47 AM
My cozy room! =P
Alright... I know i've been here for like 2 weeks but yet i've not posted pictures of my room .. So i'm going to do it right now! hehe ... I totally like my room! Well at least it's better than the one in NTU... =X
Alright... But before i post the pics... I will have to do a bit of explaination about the hostel ... It's basically 2 units share one main door... Then the moment you enter the main door there's a small L shape corridor whr there's the wardrobe & the toilet... This corridor & toilet will be share by the tenants in the 2 units. In my case it will be Karen & me! Then we will each have our individual rooms ... Ok... So i guess everyone roughly got the idea... Now let's see the pic! =P
This is the main corridor shared by all the units in my level that leads to the common kitchen
This is the small L-shaped corridor share by me & Karen. ( The doors are wardrobe)
This is my room at a glance
This is my bed with my pichoo!
The shelf with all my stuff ranging from winter clothes, FOOD, my skin care stuff & miscellaneous like tissue paper! =X
This is the view from my window, it's a kindergarten. I dun really like it coz i can see the interior of the kindergarten from my room! =P
This is my study corner! My big study table ... hehe ...
The common kitchen! With chairs & all ... It's kinda nice... I usually cook & eat here with Karen, Toon and Lou ... 
This is the view from the kitchen! It's a playground for the kids! =)Alright, i like my room overall coz it's nice & big ... Then i like the toilet coz the floor got heater! So my feet dun feel cold! Well i din put in pics of my toilet coz i thought it's kinda weird to take picture of toilet! =P
But one thing i don't like abt it is coz i'm directly opposite the window of the kindergarten ... So ppl can look in ... Like no privacy ... But well, I have a curtain to do the job ... So i guess it ain't that bad ... But overall I still like my room!
Alright, gotta go start cooking dinner! Will post a blog on my potluck yesterday! It's fun & sumptuous! =)

Back to reality...
Well well .. After the fun n magical time i had in Paris ... It's time to do a reality check! School had started & it's coming to the end of the week for me soon! Although i've been to classes, I didn't feel like i went to sch... Partly coz hours are short & it just need a bit more of getting use to before i realise i'm in school... =P
I just totally love the environment in school! It's so nice & condusive... But well, this is only the start .... I might grow to hate it after that ... =P Anyway the first week is kinda slack ... Only haf like 4 classes ... Like Karen said, it doesn't feel like i'm studying here ... it's more of like doing household chores... haha ... Coz the hours we spent in school is so much lesser than the time we spent cleaning our rooms, cooking & doing laundry! It's kinda funny ...
I kinda like this place also ...It has such a nice & calm environment ... It's so nice! But the only bad thing is things are like SUPER DUPER ex! It's like 3 times singapore's price lo! Goodness! If i were to stay here for good i really will die! A burger from BK cost like 10 bucks! That's crazy! & cab here is like super ex! I think if i'm a cab driver here i will be so totally rich! haha ...
Oh .. yesterday we had no class... So Karen, dada, Lou & I went shopping! hehe ... it's kinda fun ... All of us just feel happier after shopping! But it was raining yesterday when we got back that we were kinda drenched ... Oh & the other happy thing is that we bought so much fruits yesterday! Haven been eating fruits for awhile! So totally unhealthy! So i'm really happy to see the fruits! =P
Alright, will try to post up pictures of my hostel soon ... so everyone can see my cozy room! hehe ...

Paris trip ...
Alright... I'm back to blog for my Paris trip!
I went to Paris for 3D2N... I just like Paris... It's just pretty ... On our first day, we did all our sightseeing ... Mainly in the city centre... We took a train from our hostel to Paris (we live in the suburb, Rosny Bois Perrier) We walked through all the tourist attraction... Stopping on the way to take pictures & rest ... it's just so nice & pretty! We went to the Notre Dame Church first... i just love the stain glass... It's so pretty!
Near where we stay in the suburb...

After the church we went to many other places .. Including Arc de Thriompe, the louvre, the park, walking by the Seine river, the Eiffel tower & we went to this funfair that was ongoing while we were there...

Then the 2nd day, we went to Disneyland! Just felt like a kid that day! haha ... So fascinated by all the characters & the dreamy place ... haha ... But all 3 of us too 'smart' that we did not charge our camera battery ... So by the 2nd day all our cam batt went flat! So no pictures for that .. .Can only use HP cam which is not all that clear .. =( Then we went to queue for a few rides... Queuing just took forever man! & after the hollywood tower of terror I really got traumatized! haha ... I didn't wanna take anymore roller coaster & exciting rides! =x The free fall was just too scary ... We didn't manage to cover the whole park but it was fun overall! =P
When we just arrived!
In front of fantasyland
Cars!
Just before i got traumatized! haha ...
The meal at Disneyland!Day 3 was such a boring day! =( I was all excited to go shopping & to find out that it's a public holiday & all shops are closed! So no shopping ... all we did was have a nice n long meal before we headed for the airport... Then we did a bit of shopping in the airport before we came back ... hehe ...
The trip was kinda tiring ... But it was overall FUN!
