I practically spent my whole day in the west part of Singapore today.
I'm so surprise by what life has to bring. Somehow, I feels that everyday seems to be something new to me. Maybe I'm getting more philosophical in my thoughts, or rather I'm getting old.

I really feel that I'm so shelther in my own environment and I cant stretch myself.
I dont even know that Biodiesel existed?! I had already been thinking for days, how can wasted vegetable oil be refined into diesel for vehicle.

WHich is like so crappy? How can I not know of such alternative fuel when the world is facing a depletion of natural resources. Frog in the well. AHHHH
Yea, the world is big and it's not about how much you dont know, but how much you want to know. INSPIRE* by my own quote for the day. *wink*

You know, I was like thinking would it be weird if I start talking to strangers?
I'm really very curious about how people lead their life and what they actually do. Call me crazy, but I think I grow faster as an individual this way. There's too many things, too little time and pathetic enough courage to try all things.

Talk to strangers seem weird too...

Guess where I went to today?
CHINATOWN WITH HUNNY
" BO JIO AHHHHH "
shhh shhh , dont be angry, all you girls were working right? And auntie shell shell went K LUNCH without jioing me too =P



I love this feel, the feel of having no TASKs and AGendas for the day =)



there's hunny, relieving good ol' china days.




I love green leaves





I need to own a shophouse










So hunny made me waited for her to finish her 100 minutes of driving lesson,and,made me travelled all the way to Chinatown just for a 1hr day. IT"S OKAY, I"M CONTENTED TO DO ALL THIS FOR HER. THANKS LESSY

5 June 2009 : The day I turn 21

I report to work as usual. This time around, it's a trip to the hydroponic farm which I didnt really resent the idea. Following was buffet lunch at Orchid Country Club.


- The firemen hat that was selling for only 40cents.

I supposed I blended quite well with the background at the country club. Mao mao and I were bored after lunch and we found this supposedly ' shady' place to sit and 'tai tai' around.


See, i cant even open my eye to take a nice picture.



My level head, quite a nice lady .

Shamala suddenly screamed and gave me a squashy hug! She led the birthday song and of course I was quite taken aback, quite happy too lah. HAHA. Who know, after that, she dragged me to the vegetable auntie and said " Today is here birthday, can you give her another packet of vegetables?"

Oh my goodness, haha, and she did not give any. Rather, she gave me a pot of Japanese rose. So, my holiday assignment will be tending to my dearie plantie.




Greenie

So after the trip, I went to Ubi driving center to get my license. I hope they label the issue date as 5 June 2009.I can officially drive now, pass me your car and let me drive , if you want to experience life.


P.s I look like I'm going ROM.

Back home, mummy put on the key necklace and cooked vermicilli with red eggs for me.
I decided to pass down my mum's key necklace and vesire's tiara to my future daughter when she turns 21. Vesirian, maybe you all could consider that too. HAHA


Dinner time, daddy sent us to Bak Cafe @ changi. It's a pity that we didnt take many pictures as the place was rather dark. We didnt want to spoilt the whole atmosphere with the irritating flash. I thought what's more important is to have unetached memories rather than lotsa of pictures taken meaninglessly.



Thanks Mummy and Daddy.


Me and bro laughing at one of the waitor with a funny accent. Even my dad couldnt stop to laugh at him too.

Then, I kepy receiving wl's sms asking me what time I would be back home. Little did I realise that he had a plan together with the Vesire. So, I rushed to the void deck after my dinner only to see him passing me this..


I got a shock when I saw puzzle pieces inside and he handed me a card. LOL
I thought he was going to confess, cause he did this to his gf before. But, it turns out that I think too much. HAHAHA

but when he passed me tha card he tricked me and said that he was going to confess.
At that moment, I think I would faint if Michelle and the rest didnt pop out in time.
HAHA so it was a prank.I didnt see through if cause his acting skill was gd. Good game ah, ah tootz.

So, I said thanks and waved bye before rushing back home. Only to find another surprise waiting for me. The moment I opened the door, I saw a table with a cake and a bouquet of flower. My living room was darken only to be brighten by the 3 candles.The least I could know is, my friends were just right behind.OMG

yea, really thanks them for the planning with my sister. I thought I only had the cake cutting 'ceremony' with my family.

I enterained them through the night with the same old pieces on my piano while they fixed the puzzle together. Maybe Wondergirls have more charm, Nobody was the theme song for the day and everyone forgotten about my good old canon in D.



Thanks everyone for making my day a memorable one. Gonna have a poolside next year!
=P

Clubbing + pubbing experience in the next entry =)

It was one of my most fruitful day yesterday. I woke up feeling very energetic and the weather was so good. It actually tempted me for a RUN, a run without breakfast! Of course, it was a bad move, I had no energy after I reached 2km.So much of being a big GAGA and jogged my way with a smile on the face. HAHA!

Following up, was my piano lesson and meeting with June and hunny at Cityhall. After which, we headed back East to meet the Vesire. Yesterday, was one of the best talk ever I had with them. EVeryone was laughing real hard, obviously, I cant even remember what I laughed about.

Dear All,

Countdown to my 21st will be 11days more. I have no plans yet, but being an impromptu person, I bet I'll have something.
Yeah! So I finally get my hand on the driving license before I turn 21. Today's driving experience was tottaly a bizzare.

To kick start my 21st birthday, I asked someone out for dinner =)
and and someone asked for my number today, this 21 yr old guy frm NTU. We were talking in the video room while waiting for the video to be played. We chat for about half an hour and I guess we click quite well. He even taught me how to read Japanese Character( He took out his Japanese Elective WS) HeeHEee, btw he's from Huazhong JC. =O I was quite impressed.

Workwise, I'm really taking thing at my own pace now. It's nearing the end of the term and I'm so physically drained. Very tired! I hope this week ends well and I wouldnt miss any of my task.


Sentosa trip today



Looking forward to friday =) Yea June Holiday!! Weehxx

Alright, was on MSN with hunny and she told me that she was so inspired by Michelle's inspiration quotes. I saw the same enlightenment in Yanlin when I went to her blog. Actually, I was quite inspire too!

It it all have to do with age, about growing up? After so much that had happened, you tend to take things easy as you really dont have to take things so harshly upon yourself. It might be right, take a step back and you can have a broader view.What's the use of increasing your pace in life when you could only live each day once.



Don't you ever find that everyone is so aloof now? I am naive to think that I'm a super duper shanshine girl who can crap and entertain people. I even talk to strangers now when I'm alone/bored ( eg: In the lift, waiting for my driving test )
Or smile at strangers when there's eye contact ( Not ALWAYS, but if someone is looking for long , or close enough, I'll smile)


I was quite taken aback today when my collague told me over the dinner that my crappyness at times are irritating. I am puzzled, cause I thought usually laughters or -___-" face followed after my crankiness. I used to that I'm funny, so I was wrong. When I defend by saying " I always speak like taht to my friends"

She questioned on the numbers of friends I have.

I hope I didnt offend any Vesirian.



Lesson Learnt
1. It's alright to be friendly, But Know your limit, over-friendliness denotes insincerity.


Man are like shoes. When you are young, you go for striking, high heel shoes,walk around showing off despite the pain. As times pass, a comfy shoe is all you need to meet the need daily.

I talked to someone today who changes my perspective towards life and education today. She told me how ill our education system is, where the strong get stronger, and the weak get weaker, cause they cant catch up.Something that is true as I had seen with my eyes. At times, failer are deem as forever failer. It is sad that our
kids
have to deal with all this stress where they cant learn happily. I actually cry with my pupils in class one day after returning them their test paper, after one boy cried out loud when he had 25/50.

He started to cry and said his parents will slap him and such. To my surprise, the whole class started " how you dad hit you?"
" My childcare give me so much work"
" I do my tution Hw until I want to die"

Peharp, I was too emotional. I cried too as I felt that I was a lousy teacher. I cant save their result and didnt make learning enjoyable.
It's a heartache. I cant do anything to help but stress them by counting down days to exam.

These are garden eels. Quite cute and cartoonish.



WooHoo~ it's a sweltering,hot Saturday when we made our way to Sentosa.
Initially, I was still grumbling as I woke up 7 am in the morning.Nonetheless, I believe I should stop functioning solely just for my kids. Vivo is so different from what i thought, when I went up to take a tram over to Imbiah. My impression of vivo used to be just a big malls splattered with high end brands. National Geographic is a coo addition, quite mystery too. Guess, I would linger there longer if not for my Aunt who don't appreciate such setting.



We were busily taking photographs on the beach until one ang moh suddenly ran and posed beside my cousin. Too bad, my shutter couldnt catch him in it. He appeared only when I had finished taking the picture. My sister went crazy when he offered to take a picture for all of us. " COOL PICTURE" was commented after that. I dont see how cool our picture was, when my eyes was closed. -____-"




Should sign up for the luge ride licensce.



Love the skyride, took it at night to catch the night view and hopefully the magic on the sea show. My battery died on me! Couldnt take more picture on the skyride. =(


Giant octupus that looked so scary ! He's the excat replications of those marine creature attack show.


I should stop being so dramatic in picture. Haha counting down to age 21 !



map map and map
I did feel a little stressful as I'm leading my aunt,sis and cousin to all the attraction. Worried abt the long distance that they have to walk, or time spent if I made a wrong move. Kanchiong spider.



The admission fee was quite worth it, see you can even touch the fish in the tank.
Their touch pond was AWESOME.
They have starfish , baby shark, pufferfish and colourful fishes. I only touch the starfish! The puffer fish blew itself up when I tried to touch it, despite of the sign " Dont be afraid, I'm not poisonous", I couldnt overcome my fear to touch it.

The stingray touch pool was also another fear factor for me! Their stingrays were at least 1 m long okay.. and they swam swiftly. I DIDNT DARE TOUCH IT, althought the displayed ones werent fatal. * GASP*



Nice jellyfishes~! I laughed when I read something that says...

" Sea birds and some fishes feed on jellyfish. Often, many millions of seabirds and fishes were died every year after choking on plastic bag which they mistook as jellyfish"

HAHAHAH CRAP so FUNNY



I love to JUMP




Good time to fluant my shade and not feel uncomfortable of it, only at Sentosa =)

That hows I smile when I worked in KK despite the occasionally grumbles and the occasionally feeling of boredom and thoughts of how 'sian' is it to hide under the cover of prescriptions and more prescriptions.


Celebration of Cheau Yi's birthday followed by slacking at Katong leisure park.


Okay... i upload this pic, cos i think i look gd here . AAErr..


and upload this to do some justice to fang mi

O - K - A -Y

Take things easy, stay happy and breath =)

Work seems to take up the major portion of my life now, everything has been sacrifice for people whom i hOpe will appreciate. Nah, I'm not trying to act noble or even to be one. How true it is that a teacher often burns itself like a candle to shine out to others... ah, she did inspired me , but i'm exhausted from all those burning. Any shorter, I'll die okay. Haha

Anyway,my day was brighten up yesterday when I receieved a nice organizer from annoymous who only leave a note
" Dear Hui Shan, enjoyz ... =) "

and today I saw a packet of lunch on my table ! Yea.. I admit I do imagine a secret admirer HAHA but I found out that it was the auntie who left the lunch for me. As for the organizer, I have no idea.
But, it's happy that they actually share their things with me.



I was walking through the car park to get to school one day. AND I SAW THIS SIGHT.
These yellowish flowers just keep falling off from the trees as the wind blew. So, I stood under the tree just like the character in the Enid Blyton story which illustrated that the girl believe in catching a fallen leaf to bring a year of happiness.

My colleague even pointed that there was something on my hair when i reached school - yellow flower - evident of me acting cute under that tree.



One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child." -- Carl Jung
