25th May is my lucky day

I'm now blogging cos Joo said she's visiting our blogs like 2 to 3 times a day... -_- But I won't be blogging on the Taiwan trip cos I've yet collected all the photos! =/ Stupid yousendit.com has a bandwidth limit. Argh...

Anyway WOOOHOOOO, got my results on Fri & I've graduated with 3rd class honours! And it's so unbelievable! My caps is ON THE DOT! And I got A- for my FYP. Yay~ I've nice sup~

And on Fri, I finished all my chores in NUS~ Submitted my final thesis. Yeah~ And I made 1 copy for myself to keep too. Haha

And my mentor is nice too~ I went to look for him on Fri but he wasn't around so I left some Taiwanese goodies at his door with a note saying sth like hope he'll enjoy the tidbits although he was @ Taiwan too (Weicong coincidently met him @ Tao Yuan airport). And he actually sent me an email!

Hi Meng Yen,

I received your muah chee and jelly ... You are so thoughtful!

I was chairing a PhD final examination yesterday afternoon. Anyway, do drop by if you are in NUS again.

Do you mind re-sending or re-uploading the photos? I did not download while I was in Taiwan.

Yes, I saw Wei Chong at Taoyuan ... Amazing coincidence ... I was in Taipei for a week as a visiting professor and Shi-mu joined me over the weekend for shopping. We spent a lot of money but it was fun :)

Cheers,
KK

Haha. I was laughing when I saw the word "shi-mu".

And the interviews that I've gone for (1 geotech cpy, 1 construction consultancy, 1 offshore MNC) sounded quite optimistic.

On Fri, the construction consultancy called me up for the 2nd interview, with their CEO. O_O So stressed.... And my interview @ the offshore MNC sounded really optmistic cos my interviewer (the manager of the dept) said sth like "I hope to see you soon." Then she added, "I think I'll see you real soon." And also on the same day... an offshore cpy which I've been eyeing on for a damn long time, called me up for interview too~

So... 25th May is my lucky day~

But oh shit... I 4got that Jeremy's bday is on 25th May!! Too excited over my results & the interviews. Oops. Haha. But I don't think he reads my blog, so.... it's ok. I juz sent him a belated bday wish. Lol

S.H.E - Lao PoS.H.E - 老婆

Yeah~ Juz came back from Taiwan~ The trip was OK lah, not v fantastic, but I didn't really expect much from this trip either. Haha. I shall update when I get hold of photos.

Anyway, This song's music was composed by Ella and the lyrics written by Selina, about SHE's friendship. Kinda sweet. So this song goes out to my gal frens!

I know Amy don't like SHE, but don't care, I like em enough! Wahahaha.

从昨天
到今天
还有明天
感谢老天让你们陪在我身边

爱的心
痛的心
等待的心
因为有你们的拥抱我很放心

当初见面的不安彼此探索
也许有点茫然迷惑
朝夕相处才发现这世界中
没有人比你们更懂我

朋友 姐妹
都已不够来形容
我们的默契骄傲扶持与包容
老婆 老婆
我们一起打勾勾
请记得约定的旅程到永久

My super duper nice mentor! Prof Phoon! We went to his house on CNY & both him n his wife were so nice to us.

He even sent me a super sweet email the day aft CE night!!

Hi Meng Yen,

I am making the round to drop some of you a personal note of well wishes.

I don't have a chance to talk to you last night - the crowd was too big.

I hope you will leave NUS with some fond memories. I am certainly happy to play a minor role in your NUS experience.

I wish you happiness and smooth sailing in the next leg of your life journey.

My very best wishes,
KK

Ahhhh. So super nice. And my sup... took a photo with him on poster day but it's in Peiqi's camera... He's super nice too! I asked him if I need to have ammendments to my thesis and he replied:

Dear Meng Yen,

No need to amend your thesis. It is fine as is.

Enjoy your travel. You have deserved it!

Vladan Babovic

Wahahaha. I'm so lucky to have nice profs~

I think I'll buy some stuffs from Taiwan to give to em~ =D

Weird talents

Thanx to Gord who always find super duper weird Youtube vids... He found this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0bKq3x74UE

which reminds me of my weird talent: whistling with my teeth

MayB I shld take a vid of myself showing my weird talent then post on Youtube. HAHAHA. And don't ask me how I know how to whistle... I saw my cousin doing it, then I tried for fun. And somehow, I can whistle in tune when time comes. I think it's that particular hole that I have between my front teeth. HAHAHA.

Steph can then do her eye-rolling technique aka the MSN icon if u type 8-). Lol. U think u can do it? Try askin someone to look @ ur eyeballs when u do that. I bet it goes in a path of a shape of a diamond. Heh

Suicidal day

Oh, 1 more thing.

I 4got to commemorate 5th May as the official suicidal day of the 4 persons below (in alphabetical order):

1. Koay Ai Mei
2. Lim Meng Yen Eva
3. Lu Siu Yung
4. Ong Li Sheng
   

because these 4 persons tried to sing songs that can KO em @ KBox @ Marine Parade.

Haha. Actually such a suicidal act is quite fun! =X

Shelf life of love

I wonder... how long can love last?

Suddenly I remember, "Love only has a shelf life of 1 week", like what Xi Men in Liu Xing Hua Yuan said...

Of cos to me it doesn't end in 1 wk, but it varies for ppl. But I definitely do not believe in everlasting love, at least from what I see, there's always a break from the love in between.

That's why sometimes age/timing is v impt. Like let's say u meet the right guy/gal when u're 15 years old. Of cos the 2 of u won't get married, too young already wat... (Unless maybe the gal goes pregnant, oops!)

Then let's say u meet the not-so-right-but-not-so-bad-either guy/gal when u're in ur early 20s, there's still a possibility, until mayB a better one comes by.

BUT... if u've met the same not-so-right-but-not-so-bad-either guy/gal when u're in ur mid or late 20s, there the probablity will be 99%. Like I've said it's the timing/age.

And because I think love itself has an expiry date, this is precisely why people get married. Like when u get married, there's new excitements, so it "prolongs" the expiry date of love.

Then aft u get married and the expiry date is near, the kids comes along to postponed the expiry date again. By then, u would have been already "used to" having the other person by ur side, which adds infinte amt of "preservatives" to love.

And at the end of the day, even though we thought we got the right guy/gal in the past, just that it wasn't the "right time", it doesn't matter, cos they may be the "wrongs" if the relationship got far in time. The impt thing is that we learn from all the past right/wrongs, and not make the same mistake again.

And even though I feel that there's no everlasting love (ok, there can be exceptions lah, maybe 1 in a 100 couples? *shrugs*), we still need to have ppl who spends the rest of our lives with, don't u think so?

虽然曾经爱过
当爱变成了一种伤心的习惯
可能就该放手

但若曾经爱过
而爱变成了一种快乐的习惯
也不见得不好

所以
快乐最重要
=)

Anyway this is like a random ranting. I don't even know what I'm talkin bout. HAHA

Freaking assignment

Everyone has been updating my blog except for me... cos I was busy doing this....

Ok, the poster was ok, I only used 1 day to do it. But this freaking assignment took me nearly 2 weeks to complete...

Cai can be the witness man. Luckily Weicong and me are good partners. Wahahaha. I model out the thing using the software & he do most of the write up & calculations.

Anyway the freaking lecturer said that we can finish the assignment in 1 day. Freak him lah. I am so damn pissed off with him that I starting scolding him 1 day in doing the assignment. Later on WC can no longer stand him and started complaining bout him also. Haha. I feel like complaining to the faculty office... how can a lecturer still give assignment 2 wks to the study wk?!

And it's not a simple assignment! We need to learn how to use the freaking programme to model out the freaking jacket above, find out the coordinates of each joint, design the member sizes of the jacket, do the freaking assignment for 2 frames and compare em! And yesterday WC did a word count on our report and he said it is @ least 2500 words. FREAK THE STUPID LECTURER LAH. 2500 can be used for a PROJECT instead of an ASSIGNMENT LOH!!

And yes, I'm freaking angry with him because I only had 1 day to study for my Bahasa Indo paper. And if there wasn't such a freaking assignment, I would have time to do my FYP presentation which is on this Fri, and I would be able to enjoy myself with my girls aft my Bahasa Indo paper today, and I can still show my prof my ppt tmr...

Argh. Pissed pissed pissed. I muz advise ALL my CE juniors, nv to take this asshole's FYP, those ppl under him are really so ke lian... And of cos I shall tell em that my FYP sup is a nice guy. Haha. He really made my day the other day when he told me CE mentor (more for academic stuffs) that I'm going to get an A+ for my FYP. HAHAHA. Ok lah, though that was like a nice comment, I think he might be joking, and I don't think getting an A+ is so easy... for now I shall just aim for a B+ for my FYP.

Wish me good luck. And for the girls going Taiwan with us, sorry for not attending the dinner tonight. I wanna go too *cry*, but I juz can't afford to. But it's ok, I can enjoy myself from Fri 12+pm onwards!!!!!! So exciting!
