yeap, I've been contemplating for a v long time, whether to go or not, cos my Paris trip (supposed to have gone last Sat, returning next Mon) wasn't confirmed until last Thurs.
So when it's confirmed that I'm not going Paris, I asked me sis if she wanna go for the concert, I sponsor. She don't want... Cos she wants to study for her exams -_- But anyway, yay! Managed to get Couz Ying to go with me. Heh.
I went to collect the tix today, and it was a Malay lady at the Sistic counter, suffix as S:
S: Wah, you going to see the handsome guy ah?
M: Yah!!
S: But he's very old already right?
M: Huh? No lah! Around 20+, 30 like that
S: Oh really ah?! Hmmm.... But nvm lah, handsome guy
M: Yah, but you know he's very talented? He can play 13 instruments!
S (looks impressed): Really?
Later on I came home, then I realised why the lady thought Lee Hom is an old fart. Because his hair is grey in his concert poster. Haha

Another add-on to the list of "You know you're getting older when..."
... your favourite (music) teacher in secondary school is now a principal of ur good fren's primary school
Yah, he was one of my favourite teachers in Chung Cheng (cos he treats me quite nice), Mr Chua Ying Hwee.
I received a msn from Ruilin:

OMG~!
Chua Ying Hwee from CCHS the teacher u remember? the music teacher?
he became my pri school principal~!
http://schools.moe.edu.sg/rss/
Then I dunno why, but I suddenly rmb that he used to rmb my sis as "Meng Yen's sister". Haha.
Really feel happy for him, cos I think he's quite capable. He really made music lessons enjoyable during school life.
Come to think of it, it has been a long time since I went back to visit Chung Cheng, maybe I shld do so when I've the free time during wkdays. Hmmm....

3 weeks personal escape
As many of u know, I'm away from Singapore for a bit more than 3 wks. 1st day in Copenhagen, walked until my foot v pain...
I guess I'm still having jet lag cos I'm feeling tired already although it's only 9pm in Denmark.
But for a starter, I luv my new Lumix FX36!! Taking self-portraits & close but tall buildings is so much easier b'cos of the 25mm lens, hehe. Some example:
And the meals here are so big... I think I'll gain 5kg when I go back...
Btw, 1st time ever in my life, a guy approached me on the streets. HAHA. But I wonder if he's a Dane or not.
Tired, was waiting for hair to dry, but I don't care already, I'm going to sleep

Nike Human Race
I can't believe it, I ran my 1st 10km. At 1st, I was thinking of only joining next year since I'll have time to train, and I was enticed by the Nike tee.
Quite nice design and v nice cutting. But I realised, this is the last year I can run with paying only $25 (25 and above pays $45). So I joined....
But now come to think of it, to finish running 10km, quite a big accomplishment for me. HAHA. But ok lah, nv really ran 10km... I think I only ran 6 or 7 km but walked the rest. Not sure of my exact timing but I think I ran around 1h45min. Now my thighs are throbbing.
Anyway BJ being a camera whore, managed to get us to take a few photos...
BEFORE & AFTER
Can see the tiredness in our smiles. HAHA.
Anyway quite funny, when we past 5km, these students started to take photo with the tag. I was wondering how come they so excited bout 5km, then I decided to take 7km tag when I reach, since I luv the number 7.
But wth, dun have 7km tag!!! So I decided to take the 8km tag...
Lucky 8? haha. But this run is really not bad, u can choose the charity u wanna donate to, and even donate extra money. Of cos I chose WWF lah, haha, and I even donated another $5. Lalala.
Another big accomplishment is... I finally went to rebond my hair. Haha. After much thoughts. I guess I need more managable hair bah...
Anyways, getting ready for my 3 wk Europe trip~ Even gonna buy a new camera, hehe

The Adventures of Amigo and It
It did a nice land on the blue wall of Amigo's house.
Amigo happened to pass by that blue wall and saw It. Amigo shouted for Dad, "It's It!!"
Dad comes by the blue wall with a rolled up newspaper and hit It. It ran away.
Mum hears noises and comes along, spraying Bygone at the holes suspicious of concealing It.
Everyone went back to do their own stuffs.
Amigo alternates between her PC and laptop by rolling her chair using her feet. She stepped on something. It's It!
Amigo shouted,"I stepped on It!" and took the rolled up newspaper, ready to hit It.
It disappeared again. Dad laughed at Amigo
Amigo, feeling disgusted that she just stepped on It with her bare foot, sprayed somemore Bygone at other suspicious holes.
Amigo was on her way to the WC to wash her foot.
Mum shouted,"It appeared again!" and used her bare hands to catch It.
Mum rushed to the toilet,"Wah wah, It's still moving!!" and threw It into the toilet bowl.
*FLUSH*
The end of It.

What would happen if Pinocchio said, "My nose is about to grow"?
I stumbled upon this Facebook grp named as above. Quite funny eh...
This is the description of the Facebook grp:
If Pinocchio said, "My nose is about to grow," and it didn't, he would have been lying.
But when Pinocchio tells a lie, his nose grows. So at this point, Pinocchio's nose would have grown.
But if Pinocchio's nose grew, that would mean he was telling the truth by saying, "My nose is about to grow," so his nose really shouldn't have grown in the first place.
And if Pinocchio's nose didn't grow, that would mean that by saying, "My nose is about to grow," he was lying.
Sounds interesting to me. Haha

My Dark Knight
Watched The Dark Knight with Bingjia & Zhao Yong, and because I've a 1-for-1 voucher, and another movie voucher, I managed to buy 3 tix at only $10. HAHAHA. Seriously, I thought the curse of "Fires @ PS" will continue, since this is the continuation of Batman Begins, but heng ah, it didn't happen. Lol.
The Dark Knight is superbly nice!! During 80% of the show, my heart was beating faster than usual! Haha. And I could feel BJ xia dao twice loh (his chair shook), tsktsk. I didn't manage to predict most of the part of the movie (as in the tricks up in the Joker's sleeves), although ZY say he could predict most =/ Heath Ledger's portrayal of Joker was really good, very psychotic. What a waste for such an actor to pass away. Talking about that, I haven't watch Brokeback Mountain yet, because when I wanted to watch in the cinema 2+ years ago, my grandma passed away. Wow, 2 years already... still will tear sometimes when I think about it...
But I digressed... Heh. I've been telling some people recently that Batman is my favourite superhero (probably same ranked as the cute Jack-Jack, haha), because he is the only one without special powers or ability but can save the city. But ok lah, I saw on MythBusters that the sharp turn by the high-speed BatMobile is realistically impossible, but who cares, there's no such thing as a superhero anyway. Haha.
Anyway the show is NICE!
Everyone must watch!!

Priority seats on MRT
It has been so long since I last update my blog. Haha.
Just saw on the news that SMRT has pasted a "Priority Seat" sign on the seats beside the door of their trains. Actually it's quite dumb... cos the person who seats down won't be able to see the sign behind them.... they should paste it on the glass or something...
But nonetheless, it is a good courtesy campaign. I rmb we sat on such seat in Korea and the locals there told us to stand up, saying that these seats are "for old people". I was quite impressed by them. I always sit at the back of the bus because the seats are elevated, and so I seldom have the chance to give out my seat, and I am always appalled by some aunties or teenagers who don't give up their seats to the elderlies.
Oh well, I guess I was taught well as a kid. =P

Po ma guys
I tried to babelfish "婆妈", but it translates to "mother-in-law", and when I tried to translate "婆婆妈妈", it translates to "womanishly fussy"... I don't even know there's such a word as "womanishly", win...
Anyway, YAH, why are some guys so po ma??!! In fact, most of my close guy frens are quite po ma... -_-
If u wanted to tell me, then just tell me. If u don't want, don't ask me if i'm ready for the info and then say things like "It's complicated" more than 8 hours later, which is equivalent of not telling but u still leave a mark there, by telling me u'll take 3 days to tell me the complicated story.
Ok I'm not angry or wat, but I admit I am irritated, cos u made me worry abit before I slept yesterday night, and then for another 1/2 day, and then tell me things like that. It's not the 1st time this kinda thing happens, and I'm tired of it cos it made me feel like I'm a "life-saver pack", only useful during emergency (i.e: when someone is ultra down). And trust me, saying sorry to me doesn't help decrease this kinda feeling.
This entry is not to make u feel bad but just to tell u that I'm not around only when u're in need of ppl to cheer u up or hear u out. And I'm not asking u to spit everything out cos I know everyone has their own secrets, which is why I didn't ask u anything even though I read ur blog sometimes.
Oh well, it's BHIM (aka bloody hell it's Monday), better try to go and sleep

Spendthrift me
Somebody complained that I haven't been updating my blog for the past 2 months
Ok, I admit, I'm being lazy, but ah... cannot blame me wat. The reason is cos of this!!
My crimson black DS lite!! For this I abondoned my Zen Vision during work time (cos both are quite heavy). I feel quite bad. Anyway I bought this for $335 with 1 year warranty from seller, and also everything else (excluding the hand strap which I bought myself). But anyway this console is SUPER FUN!!! Anyone who has this shld start playing Ace Attorney series! I'm already on the last story of Game 4. Keke
Die man, I got my bonus and I start splurging... Cos I bought this in Germany:
Looks like a simple bag but it's a Longchamp bag, cost me SG$90+. Usual price is SG$180+ if u buy it in Singapore loh!! But anyway I didn't regret buying cos it's v durable! Though it's getting quite dirty as the days go by. Haha
And not to mention I bought a pair of Birkies at SG$80+. Don't know how much this cost in Singapore though, can't find it. But it's sold online at SG$95.
And with the GSS arriving, shit lah, I spent quite a lot on clothes and shoes the past 2 weeks already. I think $200 to $300 already. Must stop for the moment before I regret. Haha
