Discussion of our great friend. @ 12:12

Yesterday we went to ZW's house because C and H wanted to have a swim after our PIM stage 4 presentation.

Let me start with our presentation. Initially the pitch was ok until Huishan forgot her lines for the skit which made me lost for words and a soft "then??" became a loud "then??" because the whole room was so quiet. but it was so hilarious because our reaction was so "stunning" and the whole class was laughing. HAHA. even huishan and i also cant hold our laughter and we became super auntified so as to end the skit fast. HAHA. i guess the auntified character and acting skills leashed when we stunned and panic. And pray hard that from yesterday onwards we ARE NOT TERMED AS AUNTIE!

then we took photo in the class. have no idea why the photo taking session spark off the habit to take photo and everyone were in the mood to take photo. HAHA. we took photo with our concept board and our prototype and Yvonne's plates!

then we had a short, extremely short discussion for Advanced MarCom.

then DY and Rae left first because i think DY had to rush home and Rae has tuition. So Yvonne and I went out to the bench to look at HuiShan's AMCA group and gave them some advice on AMCA. then DY suddenly called me and asked if it was convenient to talk and i knew that it might be due to her. So i walked away and told her its cleared.

DY told me that they are meeting at ZW's house to swim but apparently she'll not be swimming coz she' just going there to read magazine and chat. ZW and Hs was also sick so most probably they'll not be swimming either.

So i waited till she was ready to go and we went off together. while waiting for DY to drive over to school, i accompanied her not knowing how to tell her. I saw her board the bus and thats when ZW called me so i just waved a quick "goodbye" and went off and I could see the questions on her face coz 154 was in front of 75 (the bus that she was taking) and i didnt take 154 instead i went over the other side of the bus-stop. i think she knows that we are probably meeting.

i knew that this is not the way to solve it. but if we were to tell her the problem, like how some of them did, she'll not admit and might even flare up. we discussed about her when we reached ZW's condo swimming pool and conclusion is: just leave her alone but i guess we gotta tell her the plans and the truth. if she flares, then fine. if she don't, then good. anyway, she'll be able to find out when DY updates her blog. but i feel that if this continues, both parties will not trust each other because it will not be a good ending.

we all knew that she can be unreasonable and the thing to note is: when you are close to her, she'll take you for granted. taking your kindness and concern for granted. but when you just leave her alone, she'll come and find you automatically. i observed the way she treated ZW. everytime he called her, she talked to him in a very heck care and "taking for granted" tone. it was like "whatever whatever" tone, and don't disturb me tone. but whenever she calls him, its another story coz its such a nicer tone.

just like what happened today, ZW called her to find out the date of Chinese New Year in year 2010 and she was like "how i know?! internet is cannot check one lor. (because she searched goole online and couldn't find it) aiyah.. you go and find out yourself la. dun bother me." i proved her wrong by searching for the date online and she was stunned. i knew that she was stunned because i could find it she couldn't.

then G came along with dinner and he ate together with H and C. I was obviously tired and wanted to leave early but G was going to give me a lift so i stayed. then they talked about going clubbing and how should guys say in their pick up line etc. HAHA. Funny. and DY played her new Mambo songs.

It was a great night and everybody was obviously tired.
On 20.03.09
Lets just call her ONE.

Honestly speaking, I haven’t really been the same person towards ONE and I knew that it was because of that incident with her when I was troubled with family problems and all she said was “chill la chill la” to shut me up. WOW. Thanks so much for listening man.

But more than that, I knew things were different after I had a long chat with Danying on a Saturday when we went to eat Lai Lai Noodles at Jurong Point before I went for service. Things that Danying said made me feel that ONE might not be telling the whole truth all the time. I knew that it could be true this way because I have had experience whereby its truly her fault and her mistake yet she take it out and blame another person like HuiShan.

Like that time I was talking to HuiShan that we cannot split the PIM Stage 4 process because it was all about brainstorming and thinking out of the box more than plucking in theories and research/findings. And the next moment, ONE told me that she will split the project so that we can start and speed up the project. I knew that the split-up idea came from ONE because today she blabbered about it again only for me to be sure that it was not really HuiShan’s idea. Yet that time, when I mentioned to her that it could not be done this way, she blamed it on HuiShan that she wanted the project to be started so wanted to split job but I knew that its not entirely HuiShan’s idea.

Another incident was when they had a project discussion on a Tuesday when I went to Samantha’s grandma’s funeral at Johor and I called her on Wednesday at 6pm when I just came back to Singapore, on the way home. She told me that the group didn’t really discuss on Tuesday and the submission was on Thursday (DM creative brief). At that time, I couldn’t really be bothered to blame anyone but to solve the problem of finishing the project on time. She blamed the rest for being distracted and prejudiced against Danying and Rae because she put in some good words about Nor that she tried to give points. Only to realise after talking to Danying on that Saturday that ONE was also very distracted, she was busy sms-ing people!

Then when we met up on Wednesday (the day I came back from Malaysia) at 11.30pm, when Nor asked if we were doing project in the morning at 3 plus, ONE lied saying that I have finished my part and sending ONE my part and I’m not at her house. I was thinking “is there a need to lie???” I voiced out that thought and know what she blamed on? Oh shit, I forgot. Erm. Excuse me? You forgot?

From then on, I knew that I couldn’t totally trust what she said and in fact was quite upset about what she did. Afraid to admit wrong? Or always wanting attention? So now, I knew that my attitude and perception of her changed. I now feel that she is losing her friends and she was not being herself because I realised that many things that she does was being she wanted the attention and the concern that she has always been taking for granted.
I know that I have to respond differently but can she really feel the love of Jesus by giving her what she expects or wanted?

Today, when we were doing our PIM Stage 4 project, it was extremely obvious that she was distracted and had no heart to do this. I guess she has a habit to heck about us and wait till we beg her to help because we were clueless. I knew I hate that idea and wanted to stop that nonsense so I showed my colours in a subtle way. Many things arise because of her insecurity but can she learn to control her emotions and thoughts? She was offended the moment someone mentioned her weakness or send a message that she is incapable even though the person might not mean it that way. Examples are the lecturers. I think she finds them incapable and not of a higher knowledge than her or at least as good as her that she was treating them in this way. A certain attitude to show that she was better was definitely obvious.

WORM ATTACK. @ 21:17

today we went to service. as usual sat at the front with Peiyun and we were squeezing as ususal but PY went to sit with her members and i felt bad coz if i didnt went to sit at the front PY wouldn't need to sit with her member.

then me and the rest of the remaining cell group went to PS. today Pamela came with Gary (her new boyfriend) and Priscillia came and Terrence came too. Huimei was also present and the rest of us. but Huimei only joined us to Outram because we were going PS while she was going Cineleisure with her friends to watch a movie. Then i was suppose to meet up with PY, LW and Marg. BUT only PY was here first so we went shopping while waiting for Liwei and Margaret. We called Margaret only to realise that she has a discipleship session with Wenhui and they merely started when LW ended her discipleship.

Then we went Cathay to grab a bite at Billy Bombers coz neither PY nor me ate much for dinner. So we went there and ordered some burger meal and an Oreo Milk Shake with Malk. i must really say that the Milk Shake was superbly nice. then Liwei came and we chatted. we talked about some friends who apparently told LW that a someone stepped down without a reason and went missing. But to LW, she wondered why would this person want to talk about it especially when she is not from her zone.

Then Ken came and i hitched a ride from him. Felt bad coz everytime he has to send me home even though its on the way.

WORM ATTACK!!!

while we were on the way to my house, there was a worm which came from NOWHERE crawling on my berms. ARGHH.. *disgusting* I panicked. PY panicked and Ken was also helpless coz he was driving. PY passed me a tissue and i thought i picked it up and i passed it to her to throw out of the window. then Kenneth switched on the lights and i saw it crawling on the floor mat on my side. ARGHHHHH.. "I HATE INSECTS!!* then we tried again but this time there was a taxi behind his car and the worm might just drop onto the taxi but PY already stucked the tissue onto the window. when we arrived my house, i removed the tissue and made sure there wasn't any WORM RESURRECTION from nowhere again.

I reached home around 1 plus 2 and slept only at 3 or 4am. *FAINT* What an adventure home.

My first visit to NDC. @ 15:44

On 3rd March 2008,

I received an sms from an auto-machine to remind me of the appointment at 9am i have made with NDC to have a check if i need to pluck out my wisdom teeth.

early in the morning i woke up at 7.30am to wash up, change and update my CMS attendance and do the PIM product concept to send to Hui Shan. but mom's facial expression is changing and i knew that i cant stall time any longer to finish my assignment because it was already 8.15am! so my MOM and i rushed down to NDC and registered our appointment, it was almost 9am at that time and there were already people finishing their appointments. What time does NDC open again??

So i went in alone and the dentist took a look at my teeth and asked if my 4th teeth is a baby tooth. went to take an X Ray which displayed my entire 4 sets of 8 teeth and the dentist explained everything for me that i have an adult impacted tooth. and suggested i remove it together with my other 4 wisdom teeth if i opted for GA. otherwise if i op for LA, i will only need to remove my right upper and lower wisdom teeth. So i chose the LA and said i had to discuss with my parents and might make changes.



But i changed my mind when i went out and asked MOM to go in and talk to the dentist coz i couldn't make up my mind whether to op for GA or LA. when MOM saw the situation and understood the that in future the impacted tooth might get infected, she suggested that i op for a GA. things were going complicated coz my right 4th teeth which is a baby teeth will drop off in time to come and the dentist asked if i am interested in putting on braces. so the dentist suggested that the orthondist would come and have a look and give some advice. (obviously the ortho would want me to choose for braces) but the estimated price quoted at NDC was around $4066 because it was counted as a private price as i couldn't wait.

they were giving me options to pluck all 9 together since i was afraid of all the equipments and stuff. and the worst thing is that if i op for GA for the 5 teeth and decide to pluck the other 4 later i would go through 2 rounds of pain and the second time round would be a LA coz it was not major enough for a GA.

it was almost 11am and we decided to put the 5 teeth confirm for GA and 4 teeth shall confirm later. so i went up to the 6th level to take another X Ray for my right impacted tooth and come back down at the 2nd floor for payment and another 'finance' consultation for the GA operation. the payment of the 2 X-Ray cum consultation amounted to $80 i think. and the GA was amounted almost to $900 and Medisave could only cover $880. MOM checked out the insurance and found out that the insurance couldn't cover.


Anyway, i went back on a Wednesday to collect my "printed" X Ray and paid $16.80. in addition, we realised that MOM was over charged the previous time coz the payment counter made a mistake and thought that i took X-Rays but actually i only took 2. so i was supposed to be refunded $12 through cheque sent to our house in 1 month time. HA.. *Funny* so i guess its a blessing in disguise.

Anyway, i needed the duplicated X-Ray coz i was going to meet Dr Ang for some consultation and get the price for my braces. He saw my teeth and said that my baby teeth is grown very close to the neihbouring teeth and is stucked in the bone so there was no way the impacted tooth can come out. and the baby teeth will drop out in time to come. He quoted us $4300 for the normal metal and $5300 for the Damon 3 because it was supposed to be a new technology.

so anyway, we have decided to choose the Damon 3 option and the amount will be staggered within 15months approximate. My first appointment to take photo, mould and X-Rays if necessary is on 31 March, Tuesday at 2pm if nothing crops up. WOOHOOO!!!

MORE gifts and presents. @ 18:28

This year i also continued to have more and more stuff. HAHA.

One of the random day that my MOM and i were shopping at Vivo City when i really wanted some PSP games because i didnt have any PSP games and i sent my PSP for repair so Sony changed the entire mother board to v3000 which cannot be modified. and there was this game shop opposite the pet shop at the level same as Daiso which are having a promotion for PSP games - 3 games for how much? $99.90! wanted to get Crush the Bandicoot but out of stock! so i got Ratchet instead. another 2 games are Metal Slug and Patapon.

While scouting for my size 28 dark blue skinny, we saw a Zara black dress at Vivo Zara shop which was on offer at $59.90 which was originally at $129.90. i bought it using the gift card that my Uni friends gave, the same card that i used to buy Levi's jeans.
