Good Riddance Australia....

2008-08-06T18:06:00.004+08:00

As many people have known....i have decided to seek greener pastures back in Singapore instead of here in boring Brisbane... I have actually thought of many reasons to hate Australia....but i cant seem to write any 1 of them...maybe next time...

Anyway sorry for the late posts, as i dun have the motivation to write currently...I also have many pics i wanted to upload here including graduation pics and my Sydney trip, but i think i should wait till im back in SG...meanwhile i guess its back to daily mahjong sessions and looking for jobs time....

P.S. MamaRuth: i finally update my blog ler...wahhahaha

Finally??? A Ticket???

2008-07-15T13:43:00.002+08:00

well i cant make the morning flight as well...so i bought a last minute commercial ticket from Emirates for S$1471 just for one trip at a travel agency....luckily theres a vacancy or i can say my graduation goodbye...lol...unfortunately my parents may not be able to make it for the graduation unless there is a miracle at SIA...

On Standby.....AGAIN!!!

2008-07-15T00:42:00.002+08:00

Yes as u can see from the time of my post...i am currently on standby as my 9pm SIA flight is full as always due to some stupid asshole pilots....my parents and i waited for the second flight at 12midnight by playing dai dee in the T3 foodcourt....lol...but then the second flight is full as well so we went back home and sleep...hopefully i can get this morning's 10am flight....

Chi Bi Part I

2008-07-13T14:09:00.002+08:00

Yesterday, me, qk and two of his friends went to watch the epic movie Chi Bi (or Red Cliffs if you dunno...) which is a significant battle in the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms...The movie turned out to be quite well done, especially the mini battle involving the use of the Ba Gua Formation, however what i do not like about this is that the movie ends without showing the start of the real battle...and the performance of the stupid lin chi ling who is acting as Zhou Yu's wife Xiao Qiao...

Anyway here is a poster of Takeshi Kaneshiro who is acting as Zhuge Liang in the movie....

Eating Fest

2008-07-13T14:04:00.004+08:00

Last thursday, the UQ idiots treated me to Geylang Lor 9 Beef Hor Fun since they didn come for the buffet..Although i find it to be quite good, they said the standard has dropped from last time...guess this may be due to inflation rates...lol.. After that i was hoping to find somewhere to play pool but the best one is still in marine parade and they do not want to take a cab there...in the end we went to Bugis and try some dessert...duh...

Anyway here are some pics of the hor fun meeting...

Selwin eating beef hor fun...he said this is to show Ruth...lol...

Extending my Passport

2008-06-27T00:54:00.002+08:00

This afternoon i went with mum all the way from my house to the Immigrations and Checkpoint Authority (ICA) at Lavender to extend my passport....turns out that the chow auntie dun wanna extend my passport as it is only issued for 10 years....!@#$%^&*()..this means i have to apply for a new biometric passport...and this also mean i have to memorise a new passport number....as if my brain can hold another 7 digit number....if this goes on, sooner or later there will be amyloid beta in my brain...which would lead to formation of plaques and ultimately alzheimers...Not only that...i have to travel there again next wk to collect my biometric passport...sianz....

Total Journey:

Tampines to Lavendar -> 30min
ICA-> 5min!!!!
Lavender to Tampines -> 30min

Moral of the Story: Travelling by MRT in Singapore sux...!!!

Bored....

2008-06-22T00:38:00.003+08:00

Its been 5 days since im back in sg and sad to say im quite surprised about the influx of PRCs and bangalas...it seems sg is getting very overpopulated....not to mention the super inflation rates where a can drink in my downstairs kopitiam is $1.30...wtf...and im also getting irritated by the number of Mas Selamat wanted posters at the back door of every SBS buses...

Although i have gotten my Nintendo DS Lite Crimson Black + DSTT + 2gb Kingston microSD card as my graduation present from my parents....im still feeling very bored...im very disappointed that only Wee Hiong bother to contact me, while everyone is busy having their own lives.... im wondering if i made the right decision in coming back instead.....well at least i can finally enjoy the food here..

WOW Adventures...

2008-06-19T13:57:00.004+08:00

During the first study week of exam...my buddy from Signal Institute Cheng Hui (nickname Cougar) introed me to this WOW private server with excellent rates...and theres even a soulbound bug where they could actually transfer any soulbound items to each other...unfortunately there are a lot of bugs in the server such as absence of professions and i stopped when my tauren druid reached lv 70... Here is a pic of one of the bug...

As you can see...im lv 66508...lol..

Recently i also took advantage of a pve to pve free transfer for my main...alliance lv 70 shadow priest from Aman'thul to Thaurissan...yeah!!...unfortunately i have to change my nick as my current name has already been taken (Elythia to Alythia...) Anyway, here are a couple of pics to comemmorate my adventure in Aman'thul....

Somehow i managed to get top in one of the Eye of The Storm Battlegrounds...and im juz a priest...lol

Immediately after the first one, i got second for the same battleground...guess the ppl are lousy that day...

Back in Singapore!!!!

2008-06-19T13:50:00.003+08:00

Konichiwa!! Its been a long time since i updated my blog due to my exertions of studying for my exam (though theres only one...Advanced Immunology...i think i manage ok in this one...) I would like to apologise to my pregnant friend Ruth cos i think shes the only person who is looking forward to my next entry...lol...Anyway for those ppl still stuck in Brisbane....i would like to say: Im finally back in Singapore!!!...wahhahhaa....i think im the first person who came back here but unfortunately i still have another year to go for my honours...sianz...and yes ruth i did ate my mac breakfast when i touched down in T3..

PS2 gathering??

2008-04-30T14:43:00.002+08:00

Yes somehow yesterday night Selwin, Alden, Ruth and Jarrod came to my house to play my ps2...there are only quite a few multiplayer games such as Dragonball 2, Soul Calibur 3, etc... I was in a bad mood from the genomics exam so i was actually kind of venting my anger on these fighting games. Kind of expected, when we played Dragonball, Selwin's Piccolo and Trunks combination (which is supposed to be the best team in the game) got thrashed by my kid team of Gohan and Trunks (who supposedly have 3 life bars lesser than their adult counterpart...), and before that he said if he lose he wont play Dragonball with me anymore, with a sulky expression...(since he lost i dunno whether he will play Dragonball with me again...lol..). Alden is kind of good for a beginner in that he can master Kilik (the one with the staff) in Soul Calibur 3 (i am one myself actually..), i think he can reach the level of one of best character in Maxi (the one with the nuchaku). As usual Selwin always uses some cheat moves to win... Jarrod was kind of interested only in his laptop and his political ambitions webbies....and Ruth first time playing somehow can spam all the skills that i have never seen in the game before, but it was irritating since she was giggling all the time. She then insisted on playing Dance Dance Revolution Supernova so we tried that one...although i am kind of bad with the controller...she was always 1 grade lower than me...then she complained if she is not pregnant she will thrash me in the arcade...lol..like i can dance in the arcade....hmph...

Genomics Exam

2008-04-29T16:29:00.003+08:00

This morning, I woke up at 8am so i could go to uni early just to browse through the notes..I had to buy a regular cappucino at Darwin (the biological sciences library cafe) so it could prevent me from falling sleep halfway through studying...lol... But it turns out to be a nightmare, cos although i have been camping in my room for the past 5 days...it turns out to be so hard...you might as well dun bother studying...its not worth the effort..I mean who the hell would come out a question about the ENCODE project and what year it is established...its not really biologically relevant anyway...you can guess who it is..(Melissa Brown sux as always...) And theres one with the diagram listing 5 bars and asking us to write what are the annotations of organisms to the genome size...who would bother to study the stupid diagram anyway...although it is quite common sense (Yu Leng and Sally somehow got it wrong...lol). Virus definitely has the smallest genome size but somehow Sally wrote it as 10^7 bp....lol...i was laughing until stomachache when i heard about this...When everyone left the lecture hall, they had those "soul leaving the body" expression and i was one of them...i was so in a bad mood that i couldn bother to listen to Matt Sweet immunology lecture...even until now when i am writting this blog...

A Break From Studying???

2008-04-29T16:17:00.002+08:00

Yeah well last saturday, i went to Yeow Keong's house for pot luck and to celebrate his birthday during the evening...and i can also take some break from studying my genomics exam...lol.. He said i need to cook something so i cook some french fries. However after a while, they turn soggy...but somehow everyone ate them all!!! I was really surprised by this...maybe its because Selwin and Jarrod took a long time to deep fry their chicken wings and everyone was hungry from either talking too much, playing mahjong too much, or playing Wii too much... For me...i was the latter...lol, since i nv played a Wii before, i tried a few games such as tennis, boxing and bowling... Bowling was quite boring. I dun quite enjoy tennis either since i was always being thrashed by Alden who somehow know some cheat way to hit the ball at the edge of the court... Boxing was the most tiring game ever, i mean we have to like box the air so hard...my muscles were aching the next day...its worse than doing 5 cycles of chin-ups...However, the most fun is definitely guitar heroes 3....well somehow it turned out to be quite good in medium difficulty although i have nv played the guitar before, and i think i have a good partner in Ruth who is really good in music coordination probably due to her piano background....It turns out that we got tired of playing Wii so i brought my PS2 to his house...and Selwin was really happy when it turned out that the Dragonball have colour (My TV dun have colour..dunno how to set the settings...) It was really a good break from studying though...

Sunnybank???

2008-04-12T22:28:00.002+08:00

yes i know my blog is rotting again...cos theres nothing interesting happening in uni and im too busy to blog during the weekdays...anyway Selwin and gang went to Sunnybank today so i like tag along...if u all dunno...Sunnybank is a suburb 4 zones away from the city and it is like a taiwanese district where u can buy cheap asian groceries and chinese restaurants...somehow there is a Singaporean restaurant selling hainanese chicken rice and char kway teow...so we went there to eat for lunch.. The standard was ok...the portion was huge though...i think the KTV at Woolonggabba serve the best food so far i think...

After that we went to buy some groceries and then they went home...while me and Selwin went to try the KTV there...lol....nv sing 1 wk can die i suppose..and guess what...the name of the KTV outlet is called Xin Tian Di..somehow its so coincidental with the one in Singapore, which is a lap sup bar though...while the one here is actually decent!!! its $20.80 for 3 hrs with meals...though the meal is such a small portion compared to Woolongabba...oh well...there are many more songs here in Sunnybank so i prefer to go there next time...

Next, we went back to the casino in the city to look for the rest...i cant enter with my backpack so i have to put it inside Selwin's sling bag and enter from the back door so the security guards wont recognise me..(dunno why they accept sling bag and reject backpacks...they are both bags anyway..) Actually i wanted to put it in the locker...but its like $5 for 5 hrs!!! thats madness...However the one thing that made me mad was the stupid security guard inside who asked me for my ID again!!!...i know i look young but im definitely look over 18 right??? Then we spent the next 2-3 hrs looking at their friend Dennis gambling in the casino..i think i learn something new in dice and blackjack....

So far, i think the trip today is quite enjoyable, except for the irritating asthma attack sound that Ruth and gang always make...duh...

Google Translator Added!!!

2008-03-31T21:28:00.000+08:00

yes i added a google translator...so any1 can view my blog in any of the listed languages...its located below my tagboard so pls take a look!!!

End of Easter Holidays....

2008-03-30T17:23:00.003+08:00

yes today is the end of the easter holidays...such sadness...this means its back to stupid uni life again...and more neverending lab work...well at least i manage to complete 2/3 of my immunology essay on the role of recognition of cytoplasmic nucleic acids in defence against viruses... yawnzzz...

Dream World!!!

2008-03-22T20:09:00.002+08:00

During Good Friday which is the first day of our Easter holidays, me and four of my friends went to Dream World!!!...im so excited although i have already know that i will be the one taking care of their bags...lol.. At least i didn buy the $9 adult single trip ticket this time...hahah...We took a train at 9am from Central Station to Coo-somthing Station which is an hour's journey, then we took a 5min bus ride to Dreamworld from that station. However, i was surprised to see so many people queuing for the tickets...(both Caucasians and Asians). But then again, since its Good Friday (when Jesus got crucified..), i was wondering why did they go enjoy in Dreamworld when its such a sad day...dun they need to to Church to pray??? Oh well...

Like i said, im the bag carrier and the cameraman for that day so i took some pics...some of the other pics are with Hui Mei though so once i manage to get hold of them i will upload them....or u can directly view them here!

Look at the number of people queuing up...

The first ride of the day...a tame roller coaster...

Me in a fake electric chair...

The "Reef Diver"...it looks tame but somehow Yu Leng said this is the most scariest ride since it made him giddy for half an hour..lol

The "Reef Diver" at 45 degrees...

The "Reef Diver" almost at 90 degrees...

The newest ride in Dreamworld...."The Claw"...looks real scary...

Same here...

My lunch for that day...A$10 Fish and Chips....10% Fish 90% Chips due to upsize...the fries were so salty i feel like im directly eating plain salt...

White Sumatran tiger...very rare...but looks like its going to die soon judging from its behaviour....

Same here...

A normal Sumatran tiger...the stripes are so beautiful...

Same here...

Guess what its doing...thats right...its shitting...you can see the shit in mid-air when its closed up...lol..

The Rugrats!!!

I decided to take a mini train ride while there were queuing up for the Tower of Terror...took a pic of farm animals...

Including the donkey...not mutated unlike the Shrek donkey at Movie World...

No idea what this is...i think they are mammoth bones...looks fake to me though

The Tower of Terror!!!

The "Cyclone"...looks scary but they said they almost feel asleep...lol...
