So I keep getting asked this question: "So what are you doing now?" and the answer to that is: "Um... Nothing". Yeah, I'm not doing anything YET.
So during my days of doing nothing, I was Youtube video hopping and I stumbled upon the the following video. This video has been on the news before where the Taiwanese Celebrities criticize the english language that's spoken here. Here's the Video:
Sorry, but to me, they're in no position to judge especially since they say "Thank you" as "Sank You". It just eliminates their credibility to judge how Singaporeans speak English.

So I've been watching the Jurassic Park Series during my time of doing "nothing". And I LOVE the freaking movies so much! I now prefer the 1st and 3rd movie over the 2nd one. The first movie just had a better storyline. And the 3rd movie had more Dinosaurs. lol... I have no clue why I'm fascinated over Dinosaurs.
So anyways, I'm just going to abruptly end this post here as I suddenly lost interest. I'll try to blog again soon...

After the Chalet
So I finally decided to stop being so lazy and to finally blog a post. So the class chalet is finally over and it was pretty fun. Of course there were people that rubbed me the wrong way, but what can you do about it? It's bound to happen when you're with that person 24/7 for 4 days and 3 nights.
You guys probably know who it is, and if you think that it's you, well it's probably not. Because those people actually doesn't read this blog.
So prior to the checking in on the chalet, Candy and CC came over to my place to get the NUS and NTU registration done. Which made me feel that a load was taken off my back. (Remember that we still have to send in the documents that NUS wants!!!) We then rushed off to the chalet as it was 4:20 and the last time for checking in was at 4:30.
The chalet was filled with chalet stuff such as card games, mahjong, BBQ-ing, Waterbombs, Sleeping late at night, and waking up around noon for breakfast. 4 days went by just like that, and here I am at home. I don't know if it's because I was so exhausted by the chalet or what not, but I've only been waking up at 4pm for the past couple of days. Because of the time that I wake up, I've only been having one meal a day. Is this good or bad? lol.
I want that Tung Lok Dim Sum Buffet so badly... Who's willing to accompany me there?
Anyways, I'll post the pictures of the chalet when I actually get them...
In the mean time, I'm gonna try and get some motivation to blog. Lol.

Busy...
I'm been a busy person this past week. I haven't my usual 15 hours of sleep that I usually have when we're a month into the school holidays. But then again, this isn't really a School Holiday either.
I had a busy day today, and I've still got more to come in the next several days. The chalet begins tomorrow, but I haven't even packed my bags yet! And on top of it all, I (& a few others) have to submit the application form for NUS, and NTU. I'm probably just going to give NUS a miss since I'm not in the least interested in the courses that they're providing. And based on what I've heard, NTU's Business course is a hard course to enter. In other words, I have a 0.01% chance of getting into that course. But hey, there's still a chance that an asteroid will hit Singapore and kill all the other 99.99% people that have better grades than me right?
So what's my plan? Get that Certificate in Hospitality Information Technology, go to NS, see if I'm able to study part time for more tourism courses, get into the tourism line, and slowly climb the corporate ladder. It's only a matter of time before my face appears on the Newspapers. Below it, it'll state: "Chairman of _______ (whichever privileged company)".

So Genting was pretty alright, but the weather was cold as hell. I pretty much caught a cold at Genting and I'm still having the symptoms here at home. Yeah, I think I fall sick really easily too. This is probably the 3rd or 4th time falling sick in the past 2 months. The one thing that attracts usteenagers *Ahem* men to Genting is probably the Theme park. However, that was the one thing that I didn't do. I wasn't feeling very well, as I already caught a cold on the first day of the trip when me and my brother's friend both dared each other to take off our jackets in the freezing weather along with the strong winds.
Yeah, I know... Stupid move. But I used to be able to do it in the US mah! Why not now? So anyways, I spent most of my time eating and shopping on the first day. On the second day, we finished shopping and got so bored. We then decided to sit around this place called GoGo Cafe while waiting for our movie to start. We then started chatting with the people that worked there.
I also watched the movie Meet the Spartans and Jumper in Genting. Jumper being the better movie of the two.
___________________________
Class Chalet is tomorrow, and I've already got all the food. What would you guys have done without me? Haha. Anyways, I hope that we'll all have a great time since it's probably going to be one of the last times that we all hang out as a class.
Activities not yet planned yet!!!
Wait I get scolded by SJ saying that the chalet was boring and that it should've been held at Downtown East... Candy, CC, YS, Daniel...Help...
Off to sleep now. Gotta wake up a little earlier as some of them are coming over to do the NUS and NTU registration together.
Tired... Tired... Tired...

I'm Back!!!
I missed Singapore during the first few hours that I was in Genting. I can't believe that I did though. Lol... But, 3 days has gone, and I'm finally back!
I'm too lazy now to type out a long blog post about what I did though. Although it was mostly, Eat-Sleep-Talk. Anyways, more updates tomorrow or something.
Remember the Chalet is this Monday to Thursday! Feb 18 to 21st!!!

Birthday
I'm now currently 20 years & 2 days old. Ugh... OLD ALREADY!!!
On Feb 10, I went with Candy, Bernard, and my cousin Shu Juan to Waraku for lunch. It's weird as I once said that I wanted to have my birthday at Waraku when I first ate there. However, without planning, I ditched that idea but I still ended up having Waraku for my Birthday meal. All 3 of them paid for me... Thanks! We then headed to Kbox after that sang till 9pm, and I headed home since my cousin and Candy Ho had to work the next day. I stopped by my friend's (Xing Yue) place as she had bought a present for me. Haha. I was totally not expecting it.
Went out with my family today for my birthday as my brother couldn't make it yesterday as he had to work. The original plan was to go for the Dim Sum buffet that I love at Tung Lok. However, they didn't have the buffet during the whole damn CNY period. We then ended up at Waraku AGAIN. And both times were at Marina Square. The waiters and waitresses were the same lah!
We then went to pick something up at my mom's friend's mom's place. My mom's friends, Pepsi (Yes, Pepsi Cola that Pepsi) and Desmond are currently in Dubai. And knowing my love of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, they asked Pepsi's Mom who was visiting to bring back the doughnuts for me!
And look closely, It's TWO boxes! I didn't eat the CNY goodies so that I wouldn't gain weight, but these doughnuts are IRRESISTIBLE!
Anyways, here's a picture of my niece Lovell. Isn't she just cute? She started chasing after my dog Vicky when she was on the stroller when she came over to my place during CNY because she wanted to play with her...
So we were just talking about heading to Malaysia earlier today with my parents. We then went to the tour agency to find out if there were vacancies to go to Genting tomorrow. 5 Star didn't. But Grassland did. So we're heading to Genting in just about 7 hours. Kinda last minute right? Haha. Alright, I'm off to pack my stuff for the Genting trip... Have fun and take care guys! Miss me!!!
More serious stuff... I know I promised to scan the Tourism Brochure but I forgot all about it, and i just did it. I don't have a scanner so I took a picture of it with my Phone Camera. Here it is:
Sorry that it's so blur. But that was the best that I could do at the very last minute. Here's the contact information since it's practically illegible...

CNY
Chinese New Year is around the corner, in just a matter of hours. I've just completed cleaning/packing the room to make it look neat and stuff. The decorations are up, and so are the new curtains. The cleaning has FINALLY come to a halt. This is my 4th CNY ever since I came back from the US. It doesn't feel that way though. I for some reason only feel like this will be my 2nd CNY since I came back. Well, I'm just waiting for my parents to change, before I head off to my Aunt's place for the reunion dinner. On the other hand, My brother's still sleeping his butt away. Just waiting for me to wake him up as soon as my parents are done.
Anywayz, Happy Chinese New Year to you guys, and I hope you guys get lots of money for the Ang Paos. But hopefully not as much as me though. Haha!
P.S. Remember to save some of the money that you receive for the Chalet! Bye for now, I'm off to my Aunt's place to EAT.

Doughnuts
I used to love Chinese New Year. Why is it that I have a sudden hatred for it? Well, I don't hate CNY itself, I mean who in the right mind would hate receiving Ang Paos right? But I hate the Pre-CNY Cleaning which seems to be a tradition that everyone followes faithfully and blindly.
I guess I understand when you have to clean the tables and the papers lying around on the ground so that the house has the Oh-So-Clean look. But my mom is digging through the cupboards which contains papers and a bunch of other stuff. If nobody's going to see it, then is there really a need to clean it? Did I mention she's really moody when she does the cleaning? She becomes REALLY moody even though she herself WANTED to have it cleaned. Oh well, Just a couple more days before CNY arrives as this Spring cleaning is just driving me insane. Even though I haven't been doing much. Which would possibly be why I'm being nagged at so much.
Remember the donut craze that Singapore flew into a couple of months ago? I guess that craze is slowly dissipating. Just like the Bubble Tea craze years ago. The Queue for the Donut Factory used to take HOURS. But, being the smart person that I am, I decided to wait for the craze to die down. Lol. I went to the Donut Factory yesterday, and I queued for about 5 minutes. Beats the 2 and a half hours huh? However, I still prefer Krispy Kreme.
Donut Factory wins based on the presentation of the donuts. It looks so much better tasting too! But the donut just isn't as soft as Krispy Kreme though. But that's just my opinion. I want some Krispy Kreme Now!
I just finished Grey's Anatomy Season 3, and they mentioned this line: "What's worse? New wounds which are so horribly painful? Or old wounds that should have healed years ago and never did?"
New wounds that are directly on top of the old wounds are what hurts the most.
