Happy Halloween!!

It's Mid-Week! And it's Halloween!! Go on and scare your timid friends! (^^.) For those going for Halloween Parties, enjoy! Found some interesting Halloween superstitions online to share with mey wonderful readers! - Going in for dumb supper, meaning that nobody will talk while having supper, encourages the spirits to come to the table. - It is said that if you hear someone's footsteps behind you on the Halloween night, you should not turn back because it may be a dead following you. And if you commit the mistake of looking back, it is likely that you might join the dead very soon. - It is believed that if an unmarried girl keeps a rosemary herb and a silver sixpence under her pillow on Halloween night, it is quite likely that on that very night, she would dream of her future husband. - People believe that if on the Halloween night, a girl carrying a lamp in her hand goes to a spring of water, she will see the reflection of her life partner in water. - People have a superst

Blood Donation!

Went for my 6th blood donation on Saturday, 27th Oct 07. Blood donation was done at the blood donation room.(Duh, if not where?) Well, the thing is, just beside the blood donation room is the Apheresis Suite! Inside, all the equipment are exactly the same as the blood donation room. But the place looks cosier and has TV. (It's not called a suite for nth.) So I decided to do a check on the dictionary for the meaning of Apheresis. Tadah! Apheresis - A prodecure in which blood is drawn from a donor and separated into its components, some of which are retained, such as plasma or platelets, and the remainder returned by tranfusion to the the donor. Qiqi, I think this sounds abit painful leh. So we better stick to our less cosy blood donation room lah, hor? Anyway, I had bad records in donating blood. The longest I took was 1/2 an hr for 1/2 a packet of blood. Coz I always failed to drink enough water. My 2 sisters decided to make a wager with me to see if Qiqi or I can donate faster. To

Little Updates!

Voting for the language of my 2nd story would end tomorrow at 2359. Pls cast your vote if you have not done so. Thanks! Every vote counts and act as motivation for me to write my 2nd story. Thanks folks! I've created the characters. This time, there would only be 5 main characters and hopefully would not confused my readers anymore. As I write the story, I kept in mind some of the comments make on the first story. Things like to based story on a eastern concept, have jerks, not happy ending for all, reduce the dialogues etc. Keep your comments coming in & I'll try to insert the ideas into my story. My 2nd story would be quite Singapore style. Giving the characters Chinese names, using Primary School(unlike Elementary used in 1st story) and such. You may even see some Singlish in the story. Hopefully, my 2nd story can let my readers relate better to them. In each and every character's story, I've used some real stories I've heard from my families and friends. So,

Reasons or Excuses?

Ever wondered what's the easiest thing no Earth that can be found by anyone, anytime at any places? Haven't you heard people saying that love, true friends, jobs, etc are so damn hard to find? Fear not, if it's excuses you want to find. Since young, we are already experts in finding excuses. No one need to teach us that at all, just like how we learn to breathe and chew. We do it naturally. It just comes to us. When we were young, some of us would try to find excuses & tried to lie to our parents saying our tummies hurt just to escape going to school. In school, we find all sorts of excuses to escape punishment from our teachers for not doing our homework. At work, we find excuses to avoid as much tasks as we can. In life, we tried to find excuses as tactful as possible to reject those who are hot on our heels. Everywhere we go, we find excuses. Some excuses are necessarily. However, as we became so used to finding excuses, it became a very bad habit. Slowly, we didn

Singapore Hit Awards 2007!

The time now shows 1.39am on my PC, I am super duper tired de... BUT I know if I am not going to blog this, I would not have a good night sleep either!! Never have I post any crude entry on my blog ever, but this time, I'll explode if I don't vent out my anger here! I've just attended the Yes93.3 Singapore Hit Awards 2007 (the DJs named it 最具指标大奖). I really wondered about that name after the winners were announced. OR it only means that Singaporeans listen to lousy music? First of all, you folks really need to know who attended this award thing. Our pride, Stefanie Sun! Angela Zhang, Sing Shi Xin Hui, Chen Wei Lian, Tank, Fei Lun Hai, Ting Zhu, Cai Ming You, Li Ji Han, Fang Da Tong, Mi Lu Bin. You just need to remember these names, because everyone of them walked away with at least 1 award beside Wei Lian. So, I really wondered, is it really true that only those who came would received awards or only winners of these awards would be invited to this ceremony? Whichever it is

An act of kindness!

Read this from MyPaper 我报, this is something alot of us really need to look at seriously... Translating what the writer wrote... One fine day, I was boarding the bus from work to go home. A lady who looked like she was in her 40s boarded before me. She was carrying a baby girl in her hands. Upon seeing her, the bus driver stood up and shout to the other passengers, "She is carrying a baby, who can offer her?" At that point of time, I was so touched. It was peak hour, yet the bus driver show his care for his needy passengers. I was totally full of respect for the bus driver and was glad that there's still kind soul around in this country of ours. However, I wasn't touched for too long. Not even one passenger reacts to the request make by the bus driver. Seeing no response , the bus driver asked once more with a louder voice, "She is carrying a baby, who can offer her? Anyone, please?" Silence filled the whole bus, yet no one did anything. The lady slowly ma

High Alert!

Quote from 我报 My Paper: Even if you're just "surfing"the Internet and not downloading any files, your computer is NOT safe. Online attacks have taken on many forms, as new hackers are driven by profits. Older generations of hackers were usually young people challening the authorities, "cracking" new technologies, or seeking fame. New hackers, however, are out to steal private information and make money. Network security company Symantec said they found 212,101 new malicious codes in the first six months of this year. This is a 318% increase compared to the same period last year. Network security experts said that "drive-by download"is the new trend in online attacks. A user's computer is attacked as soon as he goes to an infected site; the computer is infected even if the user does not perform any other actions like downloading files or running rogue programs. Even well-known or respectable websites are not immune to such attacks. The experts said

The Seeker

Never watch an action packed and full of computer graphics science fiction movie in the 2nd row from the front! You'll feel giddy giddy and have a serious headache just like I did. I swear I never wana take part in my mobile service provider's contest of winning movie tixs anymore. They always give me front seats! I think I better stick to winning my movie tixs from my fave radio stn, at least it's free seating. =) Anyway, 'The Seeker' was quite alrite loh. Nice plot, but story goes abit too slow. (Or mb I was sitting in the front and already getting giddy b4 the show was 1/2 way through?) Dear said it was disappointing though. So, dun hold too much hopes for the disappointment wouldn't be that great in that case. =D

End of Monday!

Finally, Monday is coming to an end! v(^_^)o I think we should all start to love Mondays. Coz it's the start of a countdown to weekends!! Think it's the effects of the cold cold weather... Making me lamer than usual.. Or mb it's ending of my story which seems like a loss of a true friend.. I seem to be missing a part of me.. -_-"

“What a wonderful day!” Peace stood by the sea, stretched out her hands and took a deep breathe. Peace and Ted went Coral Beach for a picnic with Ricardo. “Yah, it’s always good to unwind ourselves on a Saturday like this!” Ted said as he laid out the mat and the picnic basket. “Shall we build a sand castle?” Peace suggested. “Ok! Let’s make a big one!” It was evening time when they finished building the sand castle. “Peace, let’s take some photos with our sand castle. You wait here while I go get the camera.” “Ok. Ricardo, come over here. We’re going to take photos together.” Peace patted Ricardo on its head. Ricardo was playing in the sea. He walked over to Peace when she called out to him. “Good boy, Ricardo. Look over here.” Ted was having a hard time getting Ricardo to look at the camera. “Ok. Your turn, Ted.” Peace took over the camera from Ted and start snapping away. “Peace, take a photo of this sand castle alone.” Ted moved aside with Ricardo. “What’s that?” Peace noticed a gi

Resident Evil: Extinction

I've not watched the past two episodes of Resident Evil before. Today, I went to watch Resident Evil: Extinction which was highly recommended by my cousin, Xiong. It was also because I caught a preview of an exciting scene at a VCD shop when I was in M'sia tt I decided to watch this movie. Guess what are the effects after watching this exciting show? When the show ended, I turned to dear and said, "I now officially announce that Milla Jovovich shall replace Angelina Jolie as my fave female action actress & I love her blue eyes!" Immediately after we came out of the theatre, I headed for the VCD store. I wana buy the first & second series of Resident Evil. Dear found them but she said she'll rent them for me, saying rent is cheaper. True lah, after I bought and watched, it'll be sitting in a corner to collect dust le. Anyway, it's really a great show! She's simply so cool in the show!

It was a necklace that has a heart shaped pendant with a dolphin dangling in the middle of the heart. “Oh! This is so sweet, Ralph!” Tammie held the necklace in between Ralph and her. “Could you put it on for me, Ralph?” “Yes, sure!” Ralph said as he struggled to stand up. He was still shivering from all those excitement. As Ralph stood behind Tammie and puts on the necklace for her, Tammie asked, “Why did you go through all these efforts for me?” Ralph paused for a moment. He placed his hands on Tammie’s shoulders, “Don’t look back.” Then plucking up all his courage, he said, “Tammie, you are a special girl. When I first met you in Walter Uni, I recognize you as the girl I met in TGIF pub when we were still in secondary school. Since then, I started looking out for you in the campus. Though you were seen as a notorious girl with the Vogel sisters, I admire you for your straight forwardness. You may have not noticed, but I was there at all your debate competitions. I simply love the wa

"Love In Peace" In love lie arguments of all sorts Bears everything just to fight in line with you in smiles Rumors flying everywhere wars never ending The ability to hug you is my victory to all To endure all misery seeking the freedom to love The world is against us No family or friends is with us Together we protect with pride Rather die than live without love In history no love as strong Loving till we fall Against all odds With lies surrounding us Seeking for happiness that is pure and innocent Obstacles may come In difficulties we take our stride To prove the existence of true love Our bodies lost its strength The path of love seems endlessly long Wounds may get deeper regrets are never No matter how lonely this world may get Warmth of love can still be felt Love needs no assurance from others Everyone has someone precious to the heart Even when onlookers try hard to break us apart Rather die than live without love Is the reason for our tears Once we feared Now we fight

“This is between Ice and me, what right do you have to say he doesn’t love me?” Peace shouted as tears continued to fall non-stop. She could no longer control her emotions. “Wind, let me talk to her on my own.” Ice pulled Wind back. Wind was standing in front of Ice as he said those cruel words to Peace. “Dear, you are too soft on her. She would take a lifetime to get what you are trying to say!” Wind said as he stepped back. “Ice, what did Wind just call you?” Peace was taken aback. She thought or she was hoping that she has heard the wrong thing. “Peace, I'm sorry. One of the reasons why I said we are not suitable is because I found my true identity and realized my actual gender preferences. Throughout these six months, it was torturing for me whenever we quarreled. One night, I could take it no more. In the middle of the night, I went over to Wind's place. I poured out all my woes to him. When he took me in his arms and consoled me, my heart raced and my face was burning hot

“Aaron, why did Peace and Ted run out?” James asked as Aaron walked down with Agnes. “It’s a long story.” Aaron sighed. “We love long story! So let’s grab our chairs and listen to the story. Aaron, make sure your story is interesting!” Jim said and signaled everyone to gather around. “Well, Ted got rejected by Peace not so long ago. Being the best buddy of Ted, I thought I could do something to help them. On top of all, Peace is my cousin. So, I got my dearest girlfriend to sound Peace out on her feelings for Ted. I was outside Agnes’ room eavesdropping on their conversation earlier on.” “I said I’ll tell you what she said, why did you eavesdrop on us?” Agnes pulled Aaron’s ear. “Sorry, baby. I just can’t wait.” “Carry on, why did Peace run out of the house with Ted chasing after her then?” Angie urged. “I have no idea why Ted chase after her. But she ran out of Agnes’ room after I reprimanded her on still having feelings for Ice.” “Ice?” The story listeners asked at the same time. “Pe

At the same time, Ted and Peace said, “Agnes!” “Yes? What's wrong?” Agnes had a surprised look on her face. “Hi, everyone! I'm here!” Every pair of eyes turned to look at Aaron who just came in. “I'm not the latest, am I? Why are you looking at me in that way?” Pointing to Peace, Angie asked Aaron, “Do you know her?” “Of course I do, I know her since she was born. Peace is my cousin.” Aaron answered naturally. “Ralph, you listen to me.” Peace stood up and walked towards Ralph. “No Ralph. It was my idea.” Ted said as he stood up too. “Look, who's here!” George was standing at the door. “Yes big guy. We were expecting you.” Jim said. “Uncle Jim, I know. But I brought someone special!” Just when George finished his sentence, Naomi came out from behind George's back. “Naomi!” Ralph walked past Ted and Peace who were walking towards him to explain the whole situation. The two siblings hugged; they have not seen each other for a year. Naomi has gone Vienna to take up Mast

“Why aren't you pressing charges on Damien?” Tyson came to Hartford's Pub looking for James. “Hi, Mr Tyson! Take a seat, I shall make you a drink.” James wheeled himself and showed Tyson to his table and went back to the bar counter. “The police have found an eye witness. You know Adam saw Damien hanging around the garage and the pliers have his fingerprints on them. Damien has admitted in meddling with your bike too!” “Mr Tyson, I've lost my legs in the accident. Even if I sue Damien and has him put behind bars, it's not going to do my legs any good. However, I believe if Damien is willing to put in effort, he can reap great achievements. I believe he can achieve his goal of becoming Halliburton top racer and slowly rise to become one of the World's best racers. Mr Tyson, I hope as he achieved his goals, he can fulfill my wish as well. Damien has great potential too, he just need to change his attitude a fair bit and someone to guide him along.” “You don't blam

Reynolds family went back to Hartford's Pub. “How's James taking it?” Jim asked. Jim brought Angie home after catching up with her when she ran out of the ward. Angie was in an unstable state as she was too upset to see her son in this plight. “Better than what we have expected, he's taking it pretty well. Veronica is accompanying him in the hospital.” Agnes said as she sat down at the table with her parents. “Could he be hiding his own emotions?” Angie's eyes were still swollen from all those crying. “Well, I guess only James hold the answer to that.” Agnes smiled. “Dear, do not worry. I believe James would not give up on himself, he has our support too.” Jim hugged Angie in his arms. “Dad, Mum, go catch some sleep. I believe you are exhausted. I'm on night shift tomorrow, so we can all visit James together in the afternoon.” “Good Morning, Uncle Jim, Aunt Angie!” Ralph greeted as he sat down at the table for breakfast the next morning. “Good Morning, Ralph.” Jim a
