i'm in singapore

it has been a long time since the last update, kinda busy + lazy.
finally exam is over, and i'm summoned back to singapore by my parents.
i'll fly to brisbane on 24/7 (not 24hrs a day, 7 days a week.)

i've been drinking energy drink (red bull type of stuff) during exam period, and i never like it.

and the name of the drink is 'mother'~ lol

-----
schedule is packed since i'm in singapore.
reached singapore on 28/6 morning.

monday:
reached home, and endure my father's nag. -_- worse than a woman.
bought some stuff like shaving gel, then send my laptop in for repair, and omfg SGD$600 for the screen. meet up with ming wei and jason to get my steelseries mouse in sim lim square.

i picked up a steelseries xai (mouse) and a 4HD (mouse pad). this is the 1st time i tried steelseries products, and so far it has been very positive. the weight of the mouse is perfect, the shape and size fit my hand well, and the setting's depth is impressive. the best of all, it has a memory chip inside the mouse to save the settings. maybe i will even get a steelseries keyboard. $$

visited kino, bought 10 manga for my 1st wave of 'to buy list since i was not in sg'. both of them came to my home, jason helped me to unlock my sf4 characters (yes, i've not done so lol) and i gave ming wei his orc vs human match up tutorial to prepare for his wcg.

my aircon leaks water! kinda flooded~

tuesday:
collect my laptop and had another wave of manga purchase. $$$
meet up with jeremy and travel to marina square for dinner. (hor lan~)
i didn't expect to have that many people.

even darrell is in singapore with his long hair. lol

and kelvin bought me hello panda!


sam bought me evangelion 2.0 card sleeve from hk


few of us travelled to elizabeth hotel to catch japan vs paraguay's match.
sam, jason and i waited 45min for the night rider before we realised it's not on service on weekdays ._.
so we took a cab to my home and watched spain vs portugal on stream.

wednesday:
i slept at 7am after both of them left, and woke up at 3pm for lunch.
slept at 4pm and woke up 9pm for dinner. awesome~
then went to bed at 1am. =)
accumulated since exam period and i didn't sleep during the flight as well. plus world cup is owning me!

thursday:
made my way to british embassy to collect my renunciation letter, before i submit it in ICA. the procedure is much faster than i thought, exclude the travelling.
met up with my mother for lunch in orchard.

followed her to cut my hair, to save $ wahahaha!
i heard from the hair dresser, my mother dyed her hair green when i was in aust. lol.
met up with jason and jeremy in amk to check up some stuff before we went to khatib, and saw many familiar faces.

friday:
rest at home in the afternoon and visited ming wee at his new home in sembawang to watch netherland vs brazil. he can't go out to watch since his wife is pregnant. it is nice to catch up with as many people as possible.
almost missed the last train >_<

saturday:
met benjamin in amk to play pool then travel to khatib to meet the rest. we had dinner in mcdonald on a 'no cheese day', and seems like bejewel is the in game now? lol. made my way down to orchard to meet dawn and her friend to watch argentina vs germany. everywhere is full, so we went to elizabeth hotel for the match. but it was full too, so we just stood for 90min for the game.
waited for the 3rd night rider (the 1st two were full) and almost missed spain vs paraguay (watch it on stream again~)

sunday:
rest and ps3

world cup


i know it's day 5 of world cup 2010, and it's kinda 'late' to post about it.
i've to pick and watch only 1 match due to exam period, and hope i don't miss too much.
australia has telecast on tv, unlike singapore that you need to subscribe with starhub and singtel. maybe because australia is in the competition?
but the tv is bad at my place. the screen size aside, i need to adjust the antenna every few minutes.

i support spain as usual, one of the favourites to win with castrol calculated spain as the 2nd likely winner.
personally, i feel netherland and germany will do well. talking about germany, i've became a fan of mezut ozil after watching him put up a man of the match performance against australia. the efficiency of germany is scary, and tactically organised. but partly it's australia that made them look good, sometimes the germans are out of position but unpunished by a much weaker team. after germany won australia 4-0, the aussie commentators tone changed. lol.
australia's chance to qualify from the group stage is as good as none. with talisman tim cahill suspended with a red card, low on morale with a 4-0 thrashing, and a not so tactically organised manager.

-----

just some interest facts that i read from soccernet:

1. england legend bobby moore almost missed world cup in 1966 because he didn't have a contract with a club. back then, you need to have a contract with a club to be eligible which that rule has changed now.

2. when the team register a 23 players list, the 3 goalkeepers listed on the list can only play as goalkeeper and not outfield player. north korea is kinda owned for their side deck method.

and more interesting stuff from goal.com

36 female Netherlands fans thrown out of stadium & accused of ambush marketing, owned.

but strait times report is the best

condom sales in south korea increases after the team won the opening game.

post-assignment, pre-exam

finally! the assignments are over for this sem.
after 2 days of slacking, it's time to prepare for exam!

i took a few pics of my 'during assignment' time...



stress ~_~
and it's kinda irritating when the branches scratch my window as the wind blew.
at first, it's scary, something move outside the window (i'm not living on ground level) at night. it sounds like nails scratching the window, horror movie -_-


and i tasted my housemate's oyster sauce pasta at last~



i went to city alone, just to walk around and watched a movie.
robin hood is disappointing!


in the city, i happened to catch some kind of 'iraq and turkey gathering'
people held the flags and walked along the road.



last night, i went for a jog.
a dog was shocked as i ran past it, and it jumped into the bushes then bang a tree. LOL
and i injured my right knee in return, it's still swollen. ~_~


something i saw outside a tutor's office.
brilliant~

applesauce's story

"Politics is applesauce." - Will Rogers

one of the quotes i used in my OB assignment.
for meaning of applesauce, check up urban dictionary.
basically, it is a slang word for "ridiculous" or "nonsense".

as expected of the 3 queens in my assignment group, they don't know the meaning of applesauce, except "苹果酱".
after i told them the meaning, they just can't stop using it for the whole day.
"you are applesauce la!"
"你依个苹果酱。"

i put it on my facebook status at night.
- You're the applesauce la!
and the comment is epic...
