My degree education finally ended with me passing all my modules. It officially completed with the graduation ceremony on 27th August 2010.
Mr TT and aunt Shirley were my guests of the day. They accompanied me to school, take care of my belongings and helped take photos. =) It really was like a dream came true. I am finally a degree graduate! No matter how many degree grads there are out there, my journey certainly wasn't smooth sailing.
Had been searching for jobs these months. Been to several interviews with agencies and companies. Most did not went well. I was even tricked by some job adverts. :S
I was offered a position 2 weeks back. I rejected it due to the distance from home. Now I have to start all over again to apply for jobs and attend interviews again.
Really hope that this slacking/aimless life can end. May I get a job of my expectations soon.
Another journey that is ending is my braces journey. My dentist told me that I can remove my braces in the next visit if I like my smile in the mirror. This is great news! I have been looking forward to removing it and achieve my straight set of teeth.
Things are rather great for now, just that I need to stop being a slacker~
Hope for more good news soon!

Nothing Much Changed
It is something I always like to do, whether 4 years ago or now.
I have to admit, it always make me feel much happier even though some might never agree.

=)
I am really happy with the progress of my braces.
It's been less than a year since I had them on and my teeth are looking much better than before. No longer having those crooked teeth and "hidden" tooth! The gaps from teeth that are removed are also closing up too.
Initially, I took photos of my braces progress, but I seldom do so now since I didn't notice much difference. I had crooked teeth since primary school, thus I am really amazed that my teeth can actually look normal within a year of wearing braces.
Though the whole process will still require another 2 years or more, I will get straight looking teeth after that! =)
Looking forward to the next dental visit, it's another new beginning~ =)

Freaking Angry
I didn't blog for a very very long time already.
I don't really want to document angry/sad things. I just need a place to vent where it is not seen by others.
It's the submission deadline in several hours time. But my group mate still have yet to pass me her part. Should I wait or sleep? I already given her 2 days more to finish up her work, but I need to combine the things & do intro + conclusion. So I need to SEE the damn file.
I thought I am always quite last minute editing my assignments, but I've met my match this time round. I think she made it to the top 10 people I detest most......
To think she even said her laptop crashed on tuesday. Seriously, if the work is NOT DONE, just say so. If help is needed, just say. Instead she just keep holding on to her part, refusing to send me even a draft to read. Was any work done at all??!!??!!
Deadline extended from tuesday to thursday night, then midnight, now is over midnight, no sense of urgency. Am I really too naive and stupid?
Once I hand in the essay tomorrow, I never want to talk to her anymore! Irresponsible!
Maybe I shall go write a generic intro & conclusion first. When she send me her part I can add in more details.
If I don't get it in the morning, I am going to report to the school!!!!!

Random
Another random post.
Just finished watching a hot TVB show. Watching him acts hurt & pain makes me feel really pain - pain to watch.
However, he seems to have very good luck, able to participate in many tv shows every year. I guess this is office politics? Even those who aren't talented are being put into powerful positions...
I suppose that's what I will see in future when I enter the workforce too?
It's already 3 weeks of holidays, yet I am still unwilling to update. Maybe I should really close down this space.
The purpose of this post is to remember my hamster who was bitten to death. Sorry & rest in peace - gam zai.

Upset
I am not sure why she had to say those hurting words. We aren't even arguing and I never said anything she does not like.
Everytime I do something she disagrees, she will say hurtful words, what had I done wrong again this time?
In the midst of preparing for exams, got to study more efficiently! If not, I cannot make it for saturday. Maybe not going is also a good thing, as told by the doctor.
There's some photos taken for the past weeks, might post it when I am free.

Movie Review: 500 Days of Summer
Watched this movie some weeks ago at vivocity.
The movie is really not a typical love story. The ending wasn't good, but expected.
The guy saw the girl and like her from the start. After spending some effort to woo her, they got together.
However, they broke up in the end. Although I don't quite understand why the girl initiated the breakup, probably lacking feeling?
Well, the guy could not concentrate on his work and quitted his job to find a job that suits his expertise. In the end, when he thought he had a chance to be together with the girl again, he found out that she is getting married.
What's meant to be yours will be yours.
Meeting the right person at the right time? I am not sure about that.
Anyway, during that period of time, I was disturbed by a failed relationship. A few years of being together is no joke, yet everything can still end. END. If it isn't going to work out, then why be together in the first place? Does understanding each other fully take that many years? After understanding fully, you realise that person is not suitable, and then end the relationship.
Maybe it's cos I am old, so a few years to me is a big deal. Or maybe I am a perfectionist.

Time Machine
In the middle of the night, I am meeting the never-ending deadlines again.
Suddenly I missed the good old times again. I used to think that JC life was rather stressful, but now is worse. Secondary school life was not bad, but I had some obstacles too. I wonder 5 years down the road and I look back in time, will I remember anything about university life?
I probably will unless there's something wrong with my memory. But what is really worth remembering? The deadlines all crmaped together? The readings that always make me sleepy? The lecturers? The very little friends/project mates of mine?
I wish I had a time machine, so that I can go back in time and experience my younger days once again. Those carefree days and those sincere friends... Sigh... Even my body was younger and stronger. =D
It wasn't that my uni life was not carefree, in fact there are times when my uni schedule are more relaxed than last time. But I still do not have the sense of belonging.
Talking about friends are even worse, I only have a small group of friends, unlike the big group of lyes back in the JC times. We also seldom have gathering unless it's schoolwork related. But well, at least they are sincere.
There are many other project mates I knew due to the projects I've had. Most of these people are rather normal and 'hi-bye' friends, but some are quite bad and they appear to be extremely friendly with u. Why? It's because they will need help in individual assignments and often ask for your assignment draft so that they can copy references or even content. -.-'''
The worst kind are those who are free-riders in project groups. When the submission date is here, they will keep rushing u to finish the project while they MSN, FB, online shopping during discussions and put the blame on u when the final report/essay is not up to their standard. If they are so good, go ahead and do themselves!
All these aren't seen in JC, maybe cos we only had 1 project work and the rest are all tests and exams. In secondary school, the system was similar to JC so no problems as well.
That's also the reason why I wished for a time machine, to go back in time and cherish my friends more and work harder for every test and exam. But such things do not exist in real life, so what's the point in wishing?

So long since I last updated this blog! I think I am lacking motivation and mood to blog, since most days are about the same.
We had a lyes gathering to celebrate farewell for CY last weekend! There were photos taken but I have yet to find time to upload them on facebook, let alone here!
I already forgotten to update the movie list and I missed out some movies in between. Lol. I really should make up my mind to continue this blog or to completely close it down as I am not updating it!
I shall consider.

Sick and still Sick
Last wednesday was bad. Woke up feeling like crap, and didn't want to go for lecture. I really should have believed my instinct.
Went to a doctor after lecture and was diagnosed with fever and flu. Since then, the fever comes and goes.
Visited another doctor on saturday morning to get a stronger med for my stubborn cough. Fever was gone. =) But had to visit another doctor again at night cos the fever was back.
Day 4 and still burning.
So many packets of med to take.. But the good thing was that I was given MC!
Feeling rather drowsy. The med must be kicking in. Still have so many photos to upload..
Will update soon.

I can't seem to post photos on blogger. Weird. Is it just me or is it blogger?
Anyway, school semester is starting again tomorrow. The teeth on my left side are still aching. Even painkills aren't helping much.
I am not sure what's causing the ache. Maybe it's the food I ate that are irritating my teeth.
The drowsy feeling is back. Shall go rest.
Will try to post some unglam photos soon.

Day 1
It's our month-niversary.
It's also the day of surgery. =S
Mr TT and I set off early morning to eat breakfast. He had to get leave to accompany me to the surgery and bring me back afterwards as requested.
Downstairs
We reached rather early in cab, so we had to wait awhile.
When it reached my appointment time, they called me in. I was given robe to change into and a bed to rest.
Waiting...
Mr TT getting bored too
When the wait was over, I was called in, alone. Everything was in a fast pace. They made me lie on the bed and started preparing me for it.
I was given a jab on the hand and some gas to smell and off to dreamland I go.
I heard some voices calling me and realised I was being waken up. I felt some gauze in my mouth. Wow, it's over. It is really over!!!
Choosing general anesthesia was really a excellent choice. No need to go through the process of seeing or hearing anything I don't like.
They wheeled me out and I saw faithful Mr TT standing outside that door. I was drowsy for sometime before being able to get up.
My 8 teeth are gone just like that!
My Teeth!
Unglam
There were more ugly photos, but shall leave them out.
After resting in the bed for an hour plus, I requested to get out of the place. The nurses made me drink the ribena before removing the needle off me so that I can change back into my clothes.
The event took the whole afternoon. After that, we went to Crystal Jade for porridge.
The food
My food was plain but I can't feel anything with the numbing feeling on my lips and gums.
Taken in CJ
My face was swollen and numb.
So it was home after dinner. The rest of the day was spent eating medicine and sleeping.
It was awesome that I can't feel any pain yet, due to the numbness in my lower lips.
This whole thing was much better than I thought!!

Father's Day
Last Sunday was father's day. Thus, Mr TT and I went out with my parents to eat a simple dinner.
Tofu
Soup
Bitter Gourd Chicken
Fried Mee Sua
Yam Ring
The food looks quite nice but the taste was only average. Mum still said the food here is nicer, but I think the food we ate for mother's day was better.
Going back visiting my mum is not as enjoyable as usual. She is extremely pessimistic and hard to get along with as she ages.
She kept bugging me whether had we taken a cab home. Everytime we go visit her, she will ask that same quiestion. Seriously, does it matter?!?!?! As long as we visit her, does it really bother her so much what transport we took???
She bought durians home for me, without telling me. Mr TT is one of those who disgusts durians, so none for him. I had swollen gums and none for me too. She was mumbling about the fact that I can eat and drink salty durian shell water later on. I know myself well enough to risk shoving down those heaty fruits and get myself in trouble. She also kept mumbling that Mr TT don't like durian thus nobody will buy for her to eat. In the back of my mind, I really wanted to tell her there's no relation in those two events. If she wants to eat, we will buy for her even if Mr TT cannot stand the smell. But I kept quiet before I explode at her.
She also bought me 3 packets of instant noodles as I had gastric pain the week before. I know she is being nice to me and I should appreciate that. But she gives me a look that hinted that I am being ill-treated at Mr TT's place. When I was living with her, whenever I had gastric problems, she didn't care at all. So why that motherly instinct NOW? It's not as if Mr TT will ignore me when I am sick, at least not now.
To top it off, she keeps asking why am I asking my dad for money when I told them it's for paying school fees. I only ask for $300 and dad is fine with it, but she keep bombarding me and assumes I am using it to visit the dentist. She really has her own way of thinking huh?! Just because I told her about going to the dentist to do filling doesn't mean I need to cheat my dad for money. I can jolly well show her the damn receipt for school fees. If she thinks $300 is enough for my dentist visit, sorry, no. I ask my dad for money as Mr TT and I had some other plans for usage of money and I do not think it is fair to ask him to pay for my school fees.
All along in my family, she is not the typical motherly person, nor the loving wife of my dad. So what's with the sudden change now? Just because I am married and she sees the need to leash me like a pet so I don't forget her? .......... Or because it's dad and her against me the married-student-daughter who ask them for school fees? ............
This entry really could have been written in a better tone, since I am happy that I celebrated father's day with daddy this year. The problem is mummy is getting on my nerves, thus a need to vent.

Another Regular Weekend
The last weekend was as usual another regular one.
Saturday was spent at home watching dvds. Mr TT and I went to for a smini-shopping trip in the evening and he bought a dog plushie from Watson's for me.
It's rather childish huh?! Old and still buying soft toys.
And sunday, it's celebrating for Mr TT's dad's birthday.
We had to get a present for him, so we went to Tampines 1 to hunt for it.
Along the way, we had our teabreak at Imperial Treasure Restuarant.
Tea
Steamed Yam Cake
Steamed Chicken Feet? Can't remember the name.
Porridge
Char Siew Rice Roll
Scallop Rice Roll
Xiao Long Bao
Up till this point, the food was great! And then it was dessert time. We definitely had overdose of HK drama serials, which lead to us ordering something heard commonly in the shows.
Wine Dumplings
Mr TT did not like it at all. To me, it tasted rather alright. It reminded me of something I ate before, although I really can't recall what it was.
In conclusion, the food was good, their service was excellent too! That's definitely something I had to praise them for!
After eating, we went to Hougang Mall by bus. Our first time taking a bus to Hougang, since we always either got rides from his brother or dad or cab down.
Dinner was at the usual vegetarian restuarant. It's damn crowded, and their service sucks, their food are also not worth the money. But it's somewhat the reunion venue for Mr TT family celebrations, so, I just got to bear with it!
Weekend was well spent. =)

Many Things I Want To Say
It's quite a weird timing to blog, in the wee hours of the night. Caught a mid-night movie - Drag Me To Hell just now and I am quite messed up which leads to insonmia.
There was a major decision made today by me. I think Mr TT is rather satisfied with my decision-making on that issue. I did not realize that he actually worry so much about my indecisiveness.
Anyway, the decision aside, there's something else bugging me so much that I can't sleep well.
The results for my semester are supposed to be out on thurday, but due to an industrial action taken by the teachers' union in Aus, some of my results are withheld! Damn it! Must they go on a strike at this kind of time and holding back my results?!?!
Just thinking about failure makes me want to kill myself, and yet the result remains unknown. At this rate, when am I going to graduate?!?!?
There are so many things I need to know, my results, timetable clashes, etc, etc.
I am having a mixture of feelings now. Apart from the agony of not knowing my results, I am glad about the decision made today. If I have a list comprising of top 10 events I am most happy about in my life, this will probably be among the top 3.
However, I still am unsure if I should reveal it out on my blog as I am afraid of unforseen circumstances...... But it's probably alright because nobody really visits my blog....
Nevertheless, I should focus on posting some outdated photos and reveal my major decision when the time is ripe. =|
Please let me pass my modules smoothly for this semester and may the results be out in the morning instead of monday. =)

Nevertheless, I should focus on posting some outdated photos and reveal my major decision when the time is ripe. =|
Please let me pass my modules smoothly for this semester and may the results be out in the morning instead of monday. =)

Lazy Bum
One week of holidays passed, yet to get a job with the bad economy. Actually, I don't quite mind, cos I can be a lazy bum at home!
So my holidays was spent lazing around at home, watching tv, snacking, sleeping, reading. I am currently into watching "idol drama" (direct translation from chinese). It's a pity Mr TT got to sleep early on weekdays and I seriously cannot wait for him to watch on weekends. He does not quite of like watching dramas in another language where he got to read the subtitles.
So, for the past few days, I am alone in my little world indulging in idol drama as there is no new HK TVB drama dvds arriving yet. It's also been quite sometime since I last wanted to watch a show very much. Due to the schoolwork during school term, watching drama can be quite disappointing as I cannot fully enjoy the show without worries about assignments and projects.
Even though I am just lazing around, I can still fall sick, waking to a very bad headache today. In the end, I think I slept for about 14 hours today. =X
Anyway, it's been quite sometime since I last blogged photos. So I decided to post some of last week's event, Mr TT's granny's birthday celebration!
The buffet food
The cake
Singing the birthday song
First generation of the family - Granny's children
Second generation - grandchildren
Friends & maids
That's all for the birthday event! I will find time to blog about some other events. It's time to re-watch the drama.

After the Nightmare
I did not die at the dental clinic. -.-'''
Te visit was much more better than expected, it did not hurt as much as I thought it would. The dentist did not scream at me telling me to brush my gums and teeth and demostrate using the scrapper on my teeth. (That was what my primary school dentist like to do)
It was an one hour slot, but time flies and before I know it, the fillings are done. Nice. Money flew away too.
Total damage for that day was $400.
No more cavities for the time being. It's about time I take better care of teeth! Really should consume lesser sweeten food and beverage and brush more and harder!!
Anyway, next week will be heading to NDC for consultation on wisdom teeth. It's really troublesome!
Days after the exams are quite alright, the weekend was busy. Now it's time to start sourcing for temp jobs.
I might be posting what I did during the weekends.

My Worst Nightmare
It's early in the morning. Failed to have a good night. Going to face my worst nightmare several hours later.
It definitely is more terrifying than exams. It's a visit to the ...... DENTIST. =S
Maybe not many people share this secret of mine, I hate visiting the dentist, whether when I was young or now. Due to the severe misalignment of teeth, there are always problems with brushing them cleanly. As a result, I got cavities, blah blah blah. The main point is : every visit to the dentist will hurt like mad.
I had been visiting the dentist for the past month to do some major filling of tooth. Those weren't so bad, they care more about profit than my teeth, thus they are not as naggy as the middle-aged dentist at my primary school last time. Lol.
Anyway, today's gonna be another major process to be done. And seriously, I know it is going to hurt badly. But it is a must to visit the dentist, for a better smile and for the sake of my teeth.
I just hope that the pain is not that unbearable. I do not want to spend more money to do root canal, at least not now.
On a brighter side, Mr TT and I are going for Mac breakfast before the dental clinic! Hopefully I still get the appetite to eat later.. =)

Lack of Updates
It's been quite some time since I last updated my blog. Somehow I've lost the mood to blog anymore. I have thought of closing down this blog or changing to a new url, but ultimately I don't really want to close it down cos there are many memories which are worth looking back to.
Thus since I am not ready to close it down, I might as well start to blog again! Those past folders of pictures might never surface in this space, as I am not that diligent to upload so many things! =D
This month is the exam period for many. Same for me too. I don't really like this time of the month as Mr TT's bday is on this month and my exams are on the same month too. So there are conlfict of interest between him and me. Duh!
This post will be lack of photos as I should be revising instead of blogging. Anyway, Happy 28 months to us!
Will be back very soon!!!

Still Alive
Like the title implies, I am still alive. Just lack of updates. Couldn't really find the motivation to update abt things in my life.
Probably Mr TT is going to say, "What's there for u to update? Except living in your own world n time."
Yep, I am awake when others sleep, sleep when others awake. BUT I still attend my very-expensive lectures and do my projects with my mates. The only thing I did not do is to read my lectures beforehand. Well, just not that diligent yet.
I do NOT want to be like this either. But the bio clock refuses to tune back to Singapore +8:00 timing. I wanted to consult a doctor about it, but well, the clinic opens only for that several hours while I am away in class or dreamland.
Everytime Mr TT wakes up, he'll scold me for playing games/watching dvds. But the game part was only during the CNY period. Now mostly I do my readings / rushing projects while keeping the dvd playing.
I know he does not like me to be awake while he is asleep, but I cannot help it either. I am trying to tune back, only to make it worst. All he did was to be angry with me and angrier and angrier everytime he realises I am awake at wee hours.
It makes me helpless and frustrated when I toss n turn in the bed without feeling a tiny bit of sleepiness. Thus, I turned to other activities to pass my time instead.
Try putting yourself in my shoes the next time you want to scream at me. Try downing a jug of caffine and sleep in an hour's time. Try waking in the late afternoon and tell yourself to sleep at midnight. With only that few hours of mild activities, how will the body ever feel like resting?! I know you can sleep definitely even in those situations, but I am not you. Not yet.
All I need is a little more encouragement and medical help, not constant anger and frustrations vented on me. If these still carry on, you're only pushing me to move back home, to my home sweet home. Maybe it'll be better for all.
