Saturday,Mar 31 2007, 05:32:46 PMits a long long one

Ok Arte's doing quite a few things at the same time... Aimming to finish this blog n sleep by 12 (hopefully...)

2molo intend to finish supply chain and send to kimm. Aft tat noon need to go somewhere then go study... prob at mac again....

Ok so what's Arte doin all at the same time lei....

Arte's chking her 2 of her mail boxes, namely the yahoo n gmail (truth is Art doesnt chk other mail boxes xcept her gmail unless there's a need) so why's she chking her yahoo mail which has been kinda frozen since ice age lei?? She's helping her daddy do some wk.... shall mention bt the wk later. Ok so back to wat's arte doin currently... Xcept for the mail chking, Arte's looking thru the blog, replying smses n o ya rubbing her nose... heee

Just finished typing n printing daddy's invoices. Realised the last time i was doin the editing was last yr 11 jan 2006.... this order is dated 11 April. It came to her mind that it was done b4 she left sing... it's been 1 yr since that happened... Time really flies... Some might say HL havnt changed a bit since her trip back... well, i guess aft the trip arte kinda changed. Mayb fr the appearace n behavior HL hasnt changed but deep inside... only she herself noe ba. Back to Arte's daddy's assignment for her. Yeah it was handed to her yesterday nite but she only finished it today... BAD ARTE -_-" Ok except for that, arte has oso finished uploading her pics to zorpia. n now to add to it, finished chking her yahoo mail n finished lking thru the blogs...

Hmm... Shall start with the things arte did today....

Arte was home the whole morn. Woke up at 11. (actually woke up at bt 9... but cont to sing under the comforter... till 11... n guess wad... within that 2  short hrs, arte had 3 dreams... and the same person appeared in all 3 dreams.... OMG tink my dream catchers aint doin their job liao.... gonna go chk it's still intact.)

Aft tat was tv n more sleep till 4 plus.. then went to bath n out to mac... till 10 plus n it was home... (wanted to go elsewhere but scrapped that idea coz arte still have to help daddy to do things n she doesnt wanna go to bed too late.)

So wats new bt Arte's trip out??

Hmmm...

Just a few steps fr home, she saw this...

A closer look....

  <= mushrooms!!!!! Kinda wonder if its edible.... =p

Then at the mac, while studying half way....

  <= some kuku (really wanna stop using the word but the person really kuku.. u'll know why later...) person suddenly climbed up a chair n started to push every "ceiling board"...

& if u tink it aint enuff....

They got another kuku person.... *Faints*

Ok now to explain y Arte call the person Kuku...

Those ppl's keep lifting the boards... n they didn bother to ask anyone to shift and ppl who happens to be sitting under kanna little 'black raindrops'. Can they be anymore brainless?? REALLY NO CUST SERVICE MAN!!!!! Faintz* So what hap in the end??

End up arte didn say anything just siam away and took pics of them.... n took pics of what hap to her stuff...

 <= all the 'black drops' that fell fr the 'sky''s circled in red... This was taken after she tried to rid some of it...

A close look...

  <= this 1 more obvious....

  <= this is taken on the table.... DIAOZ*

& more....

Arte's lucky coz she immediately took her drink n bit the straws (so nth could fall in...) but there are other kuku's who's happily eating when the boards' lifted right abv their head... Imagine the 'black raindrops' fall into their fillets etc etc.... *Faintz*

So what else hap at the mac.... The usu's stuffs~ Somebody's bdae cel and the ppl enjoying the soccer matches....

So aft much studying, arte decided to go home....

Since Arte wasnt that tired and she couldnt go get some breeze, she decided to walk home...

Stopped a while at the bridge to take this shot

Have to admit, it looks a lot much better in real.... It suddenly came to arte that every thing in the world has its own beauty...

If we could take some time off n look round us, we'll find beauty in everything around us~ It's the lights in the cities that looks like twinkling stars and the busy roads full of car lights at nite that makes a city beautiful at night.

In the day, its the beauty of the different high scrapers bright blue sky with clouds that resemble's little floating cottens (hmm cotton candies ^_^) that's nice...

On a drizzling day, every thing looks good coz it's kinda like a mosaic. its the mysterious-ness of not knowing whats in front that's beautiful... somemore walking in the rain's a pleasure coz the tiny rain drops just falls gently on ur face and hands... as gentle as a baby's touch~

On a shower day, things might look bad... but the big rain drops kinda sends a cool feeling (as in not warm... whahahah) into us, calming our stressed n messy minds~ & of coz like that heard today. It says, "it's always brught n beautiful aft a thunderstorm" ^_^ (cant rem where I've heard it fr.... tink its the tv show in SCV "Fa Yi Dai Yan Ren" staring wang ming quan n a lot others~ Kinda like the show coz the show says a lot of things that kinda stimulating... Tinking of getting the vcd coz its worth keeping~ but... hmm....

Ok tink i just went too far.... back to reality~

Ok the following will be an extract fr leng's blog (Was tinking since the gurl's so nice to find 101 ways (ok exergerated again =p) to help her frens (which includes me)) to relax, I tink she'll def b very happy if i help her make it brighter (hee meant "fa yang guang da") So here it goes... for all those stressed up frens n blog fans of mine~~~~

"Ten Ways to Relax on the Goby Mike Moore1.

1. Take three deep breaths slowly

2. Relax the tongue. Usually the tongue is held tightly against the teeth. Free it up in the mouth so it can just rest there without tension. (actually i'm not very sure what this means ahhahahaha~ Leng, I know u'll def read this... can u explain what it means?? whahahaha)

3. Take one minute vacations. In your mind visit places where you find peace and stillness. Picture yourself there soaking up the beauty and solitude.(Well, I've been doin it a lot. but i dun tink it helps... anyway i tink there's a professional term for it... It's called 'day dreaming' or u can call it 'building castles in the air" which i happen to know lotsa gurus ^_^ (including myself =p) who needs help in this. Charges do apply though~ ^_^)

4. Relax your facial muscles. Tell your facial muscles to relax and they will. Try to maintain this relaxed face throughout the day. (Tis i tink it'll be a tiugh job for some ppl (including arte herself but nice Arte shant mention other names... u all go guess ba ^_^) )

5. Move slowly. When you find yourself rushing for no reason, SLOW DOWN. (I tot i walk very slow liao?? If i cont to walk slower... I tink the snail x the road liao im not even half way thru~ so i dun tink its applicable to me... but i for those ppl whom i keep saying, "hey i know ur leg long la~ but no need walk so fast" hmmm i tink this will be very suitable fer u =p)

6. Laugh more. Laughter cuts stress and promotes relaxation. (Hmmm suddenly a few ppls faces appeared in my mind... )

7. Listen to beautiful music. Mozart and other classics relax the spirit. (Oei Leng, I'm listening to the song on ur blog lei. Is it classified as beautiful music too?? Whahahaha)

8. Watch and enjoy the sunset. (Well, i dun only enjoy sunsets, i enjoy dawn and of coz the night sky, the night water, the night breeze, the beautiful bright sun n on n on.... issit enuff?? Heee)

9. Visualize yourself as a balloon being inflated. As you breathe in, the balloon fills with your stress and tension. Then breathe out all the stress and tension leaving yourself limp and relaxed. (I can imagine some ppl doin this... OPS* I'm so bad~~~~ =p)

10. Enjoy the rhythm and beauty of nature for its lessons are patience and peace. (Well, have to admit, this is def 1 of my fav imagine listening to the crickets n frogs n toads in the in the wee hrs and b4 dawn... the waterfall.... watching the wind blow upon the plants on a windy day or the sun shinning upon the green lush forest~~~ these n more.... even how the rain n sun play a part to the growth of the mushroom that i saw earlier (n guess what, it's right beside a tree... like a bro n a little sibling....) =p

Wah tatz all fr this webbie ah?? 1am liao lei. & i started at 11 plus....

and something else from another webby..

- Talk about it with a good friend or your spouse (Kinda feel lucky coz i have a gp (shld be gps) of frens whom we practically gossip bt everything. Thanks guys *MUAKS* )

- Cry ( tried proven it works *Arte admits she's a cry bb but of coz only very few will see her wet on her face =p )

- Have an outlet- Express yourself through writing, crafts or art (Hmmm..... Well, i like crafts... but kinda stopped doing it... does origami count?? Ok i tink i shld start to impart to the rest of my frens liao =p)

- Exercise Practice relaxation techniques

- Drink Green Tea. Sipping a warm cup of tea is a soothing activity that will help you prepare for the day ahead and feel nurtured. It’s a delicious and healthy lifestyle choice.

- Write in Your Journal It has many health and stress management benefits, and can also lead to increased self-awareness. Writing once a day can help you feel focused, process negative emotions, and solve problems. (Now u know why the journ entries just grows during xam... & GH if u ever read this, u'll know why ur mail's flooded... pls dun blame me fer this yeah =p)"

Wow finally finished that what shes's said....

Nxt some HEALTH TIPS FR LENG TOO!!!

Got this fr her thru my yahoo mail... (hey gurl, pls refer all ur mails to my gmail yeah? Arigato ^_^)

For all Arte's blog fans out there~~~~ PLS READ THIS FOR UR OWN SAKE YEAH~ like what they say, early detection n prevention is def better than cure~~~~ =p

Friday,Mar 30 2007, 05:59:06 AMFinally submitted report!!!

OMG the tut rm's damn cold.... (Shall start to cut all these kuku words. It sounds so uncouth esp out fr a gurl's mouth...) Didn realise it till an image of a gurl speaking like that came to my mind just a moment ago... EEEKKKKS!!! ARTE MUST LEARN TO SPEAK PROPERLY!!!

Well actually nth much to write bt coz arte KO-ed till 11 plus then just handed in report (while the prof's eating... bad bad timming.. =s).

Needa find info bt Taiwan trip but have yet to do so... MSN-ing our dear fang n chatting wit our every interesting leng~ Have to admit that i'm a avid fan of her blog~ she just writes so well it makes me roll on the floor~ (OK exegerated a bit... =p)

Chk-ed my mail... got some kuku (OPS* Again....really need to rid that habit.) ppl put some funny comment in my blog~ xp anyway Arte's del that offensive comment. I dun mind those "wanna make frens" msg (but of coz arrogant arte nv bothers to reply them =p) but that comment was kinda of Arte's limit... It's my blog n i dun like ppl to spam it or spoil it's nice beautiful image okie~

O ya got this nice comment on my pic saying im pretty ^_^ dun mind these type of compliment though~ but aft seeing the msg, i lk into the mirror (tinking how pretty i m...) but i got the shock of my life!!! WAH BIANG~ I lk like a ghost released fr hell!!! the skin's terrible!!! must be due to the lack of (good) sleep over the past few days.... the face got this sudden surge of blackheads~ The face's as dry as orange skin n my PORES ARE SO BIG!!!!

This means arte's gonna have a a few more dollars to spend liao ^_^ Kinda feel that it's the little joys in life that makes my day.

Ok back to plans... Gonna rest for today... 2molo.... out to study!!! Woohoo!!!

OK nth much to write liao... everyone's here xcept... Yongsheng & Gavin.... Tink I'll just end here ba =)

~Life's a long journey... As u walk, u'll come across the beautiful flowers n trip on stones. The flowers are events that make u happy and the stones are the obstacles that u have to oversome... Like what min says when she tied the yellow band on my hand... She hopes that I'll have a blessed n happy life but there'll b problems along the way to set me thinking as it is thru the problems that i'll learn to grow... I guess what she's said is same as what's written here... In our lives we will bump into many "stones" sometimes the stones get so big till we do not know what to do or how to overcome it but it's the "beautiful flowers" that will keep us goin... I guess this is life. Without the stones n flowers, life wouldnt be so interesting. I guess this is sth which everyone who reads this will agree~ ^_^

Thursday,Mar 29 2007, 06:14:14 PMtrip to little india

Havnt really got time to sit down n type.... Actually got quite a bit to write.

Wanted to announce that my final baggage has arrived fr SH! Really have to thank Rowena for helping me send it back... With this last baggage, I can gladly announce that all arte's belongings are back in SG! & guess what, Arte's found her cap within that baggage! WOOHOO! No need to find new cap liao. actually hor its very hard to find another one which i like so much oso. Heee~ so arte's glad to find the cap (even if its so super dirty =p)

Then oso wanna mention bt Jis's bird-dae on wed. Wah wed was 1 long day. But naughty arte skipped morn lect (coz she was too seh.) then Arte tot got log quiz but but heng dun have. its nxt week. aft all the lects was jie's bdae cel. So what gift did the gang give jie on his bird-day lei??

1)Naughty Arte made Jie dip his nose into the curry saucey
2)Teesh (actually GH was the culprit who used her name) made Jie eat 1 pack of pizza chilli
3)Not sure who made Jie K the bottle of pepsi in 1 shot. But naughty tk ask arte to tickle him while his drinking so in the end Jie didn finish it in 1 shot. (but he did finish it eventually)
4)aft all the drinking.. Jie (with an exploding stomach and a curry sauced nose and mer-lioning throat n lotsa pizza in the gut) was made to finish 1 more pizza~ <=Momo n this guy called "Kar"'s idea...
N not forgetting jie's sprinting session will almost every guy who was present....
Well, all the pics of the event can be found in "Jie's Bird-dae" album...

Then bt 2day...

Curious little Arte went to explore Little India....

Her journey started fr some unknown rm in hall 13...

 <= all was wet outside the hall... rain drops still falling fr the sky like an angel tearing~

The went to LWN to print her report (which has yet to reach her sup's hand... faints*)

Took 179 fr Cant A then train to Farrer Park stn where her journey started....

  D "Farrer Park" station

Alighted at...

 <= Exit A

Leaving Exit A, she found

 Sth that reminded her of a banana with hands n legs~ =p

Then she passed by Serangoon Plaza & Mustafa

 <= Serangoon Plaza

Then she took some pics of the shop houses....

  
~These shophouses is kinda like those in chinatown... but they were less colourful and the design less extricate. It is also different in the design of the windows and doors. The window and door designs were more colourful and more extricate compared to the "bars" used in chinatown. Guess the chinese did have a rather great impact on the architecture of buildings in the early days. But the indians have shown their own indiviudality thru the small parts~

n the coffeshop

 which sells coconut srink at 1.2 bucks~

n the dressmaker on the street...

n she passed by a temple...

the street...

n saw a gp of pri sch students.... (how come she nv get those trips when she was young... Sobz*)

and the "Little India Arts Belt"

 <= Little India Arts Belt

 where she visited an arts gallery and saw the Margic Beer Garden and she tried on this beautiful set of north Indian clothes~~~ and she saw sth cute~~~ ^_^

The gurl found shops that sold belts, watches, clothes, accessories, bags~ etc etc etc. It kinda change her impression that the place was only suitable for the tamils.

By the end of the trip, Arte left from

   <= Exit E, Little India

On the way back, theres sth weird that hap again.... While on the phone, got wierd guy suddenly tap her bag twice b4 leaving the train... n the funniest thing is that arte doesnt find the person familar at all.... Hmm mayb he's just warning her that there's some1 eyeing her bag ba. But when she chk the contents of the bag, everything is intact... hmm but like what arte says... her life's always full of wierd events. =p

Hmmm so what has arte got fr this trip xcept for the culture learning n achitectual analysis??

 <= Arte's got herself accessories and WATCHES!!!! Pretty pretty nice watches ^_^

& dinner~

  <= Dinner was supposed to be fish head curry... but arte only managed the fish n the curry (which tasted not bad).... with the aint so fantastic thosai n prata...

Wow~ What a day~ But where's nxt?? Hmmm~~~ Mayb the open air market near bugis.. mayb bird park.. mayb zoo.. mayb nite safari... mayb botanical garden..

But for now, its time to visit dreamland... ^_^

~ Some ppl say arte's cute. some joke that she luv to act cute... and others say shes interesting others say tempermental. some say she's soft others say shes stubborn... some say shes just so gurl... others, shes just so un-feminine but i guess that's just thats just her after all shes a taurean and venus's her ruling planet and there's this phrase that goes... Men R from Mars, Women from Venus... so i guess that explains her every changing character n u cant blame her fer that yeah~ ^_^

Thursday,Mar 29 2007, 04:36:37 AMNot feeling any better

My head' still spinning...Not very sure... but i tink it's kinda bad. Tink it's the aft effect of sleeping after 5 everyday for like dunno how many days liao... (the only day i rem sleeping early was on sunday which was at 2... *faints*)

It looks as if it's gonna rain.... and i still have to go to print the hardcopy of the report for the sup.... SHARKS~ I'm not sure why but i dun seem to feel any better though I've cleared the report....

OK it just rained... Arte stares out of the window.... looking at the falling rain over the lush green forest.....
