4. Please Don't Stop The Rain
5. Broken Strings
(Feat. Nelly Furtado)
6. Nothing Ever Hurt Like You
7. Once When I Was Little
8. Precious Love

10. Fix The World Up For You
11. Dream On Hayley
12. Love Is Hard

Read It !

Been wanting to update my blog from time to time but time and fatigue is taking a toll on me.
And so taking this opportunity on a Wednesday morning to blog! No classes on Wednesday! Thankgod.

Shitty stuffs have been happening to me recently. Nevertheless, I guess it will soon be over after some time. At the mean time, I'll have no choice but to eat those shit.

Lets get on to something interesting besides shit.

Absolutely enjoyed my last weekend. It was all amazing.

Saturday Night

Out in the night with my classmates at Bugis. I was late for the meetup and what I received a pretty callous punishment which is getting them 2bottles of 1.5ml Ice Lemon Tea. I ain't a muscular person so its definitely a chore to carry it all the way from Bugis to the steamboat area.
Immediately, started my yummylicious meal once I reach.

A big thankyou to all of them, Genevieve, Nigel, SongRen, Veron and Jacintha. Coz all of them have at least help me with something. Jac, Gene, and Songren have been serving me food almost the whole dinner. Nigel have been refilling my Ice Lemon Tea and peeling prawns for me. Veron gave me her bowl. Omg, I'm so blessed to have them xD

P.S: Angtint should know these better than anyone else! Coz she had steamboat we me too.

After our sumptuous meal, we walked over to Cathay @ Douby Ghaut. Intended to watch a movie but to our disappointment, there no movie that we preferred to watch. Leaving with no choice, we headed down to Starbucks and chill xD


Babes xD




Songren bully!






Songren face cramp.


Sunday

I had work at Fort Canning Park with Genevieve, HweeMiang, Larry, Peisi and Xiuling.
What can I say? Its totally a fun-filled day for me.

2 events was held on that day. Morning was for the Indonesians and evening was for the Bangladesh. It was hectic in the morning. Many, I mean masses of Indonesians was queueing up to get their prepaid cards. Gene, Me, and Peisi did the registration work. Xiuling was my personal helper. HAHA. Actually, Gene also have Peisi as personal helper but due to the overwhelming crowd, Peisi had to do registration too. As for Larry and HweeMiang, they are at the entrance giving out Goodie Bags. People just kept queueing till the end of the performance.

And a whole bunch of Indonesian got up on stage and shake.

The whether was on and off. Comes when it feels like and go as it feels like.

After the Indonesian event ended at ard 4pm we started to get ready for the Bangladesh event. Needed plastic bags at my area for all the free gifts, so Gene and I went over to Larry and Hweemiang there to get some paper bags. I bought down a few BIG brochures to cover my head. I don't wanna get my hair wet coz when it do, my hair will be screwed! My brochures koyak when it reach there and it was raining heavily. So Gene left without me and I continued staying there. HweeMiang was drenched from head to toe. Ohmy ohmy, I pity her. But she keep disturbing me. Going close to me wanna make me wet too. Booo.

Soon, our Indian helper bought us our food. Brani!! Its that how it is spelt? Bra-Ni? Anway, I was STEM ah! Coz the Bra-ni was too hot for me. I almost finished it all coz i was hungry.

Crapping all the way with HweeMiang and Larry. Enjoyed the concept of crapping till I don't feel like going back to do registration. True enough I stayed there for the rest of the day. Gene joined in the fun too. Leaving Xuiling and Peisi with the registration stuffs. Ain't much registration to do anyway coz not many prepaid cards are bought.

Near to the end of the event which was around 9.30pm there was lots of bread and water left. Those were the goodies which were meant to be given to the people. Haha.

We were told to distribute those stuffs off. The feeling of giving stuffs to people who appreciate it, it really means alot. The feeling is just so pleasant.


The bread!!

After the event ended, hella lots of people were reaching out for the free goodies. We packed almost ard 10 bread in 1 paper bag. However, the goodies that we have packed is not enough for the crowd. Hence, the banglas simply grab the paper bag and we just dump in the bread for them. Omg, its really FUN!


The bangla pushing and shoving to get the free bread, shouting 'Give me give me' Then we'll say 'Ok, give you, give you'. Poor Larry he was standing outside distributing the goodies so he was being squashed. While we were inside putting bread in the paper bags. Phew. It was chaotic but it was really cool!


Muackkksss!


Larry the crapper.


Our party hats.


Screwed hair


Photographer did it on purpose.


Bayaks!





Though its 14hrs work, from 9am till 11pm, I enjoyed it to the core! I bet they too ;D

Peace!

Fix My Life

It took me quite awhile to realise that I've been on a hiatus. It seems so much of a challenge to wake up at such hectic mornings, where little is done for personal gains.

Lately had been busying myself out with Strings IG. Performance coming real soon on the 6th Nov. And this spells busking! Relentless practicing for both performance and busking. Please show your fullest support by making a trip down to watch the buskers perform as well as the performance. It's Free-Of-Charge. Busking on the coming Tuesday and Thursday. More details to be make known at a later date. Having our 1st performance preview tomorrow, hope everything goes slickly yea?

Recieved a call from Singtel and was told to work at Fort Canning Park this Sun with my fellow friends. Woots, I'm pretty much looking forward to it ;D
Perhaps, tons of hot chaps would be there. Its a party called Starlight Party. I wonder what party it is. uhmmh..

Enjoyed my work last Sat and Sun @ the Zee Carnival, Suntec. Sales was reletively bad!!! Real bad, then again it doesn't concerned about me. Surprisingly, I was not rottingg!! I met the coolest Bollywood Star. Apparently, the carnival was filled with Indians. Not those black indians. Instead, white indians. Their features was incredible and there was this hot singer Aditya Narayan, he walked past our booth with lots of security surrounding. uhmmm, but too bad I was not a fan of him.

All the while, Lionel and I was grooving to their songs. Lionel was one of the Singtel dealer. Age 23! We got along pretty well xD

OM SHANTI OM~


Her hoodie.


Her bangle.


I know you love me.

Chilling out on last Thursday.

Nothing really beats having her around, its funny how that particular person always comes to our mind, how we bitch about this same person every single time and i bet the same topic could probably last forever and keep us very entertained, yet we never get tired of it.

Ohyeah, check out my headband. Its somewhat awesome ;D

Oh ya, you guys know something? Somehow I'm always the last to sleep. LOL.
Till then.

Get Cracking TH

Felt so much more rejuvenated after a good 2 days (Sat & Sun) of hibernating.

Spent most of the time youtubing. Videos on people covering on songs on their guitars and also music videos. Yepps, and basically that's it. Nothing else more. Covers, covers and more coversss!! I just can't get enough of them. If you do notice, there are helluva lots of talented earthlings out there on Earth.

Speaking of this, I'm homed, sitting on the comfort of my chair after 3 full hours of Strings IG rehearsal. Been getting said by my conductor recently on Saturday, 'As a president, you have to set examples blah blah. Those typical kind of scolding. I haven't been attending 2 lessons simply bcoz of the F1 event and meetings and what's best is today I've trouble playing some of the parts. And this allows my conductor to say me again 'Tinghui, did you practice? As a section leader ought to be playing better than your players' I was there yes yes yes, you're absolutely right. Soooooo, I really have to get cracking on practising!! Mini-Concert on the 6th Nov. Its right after my birthday! I prayed hard that there's no rehearsals on 5th Nov ;P

Special thanks to Jacintha who helped me out today. Cheers.

F1 Update

Formula 1 was held on the 26th, 27th and 28th of September. Before the event, we attended unteem meetings and the whole entire week we spent our time mostly at Esplanade. And what we get in return is not even a word of ThankYou. Just a shitload of affairs to grumble.

Monday

I skipped Strings IG and headed down to Esplanade with the rest of the committee members. The suppliers for Ice-Cream, Chips, Mineral Water and Coke came over to give us the supplies. We are suppose to supervise or something? On the whole, Chocz has 6epods at Esplanade Bay. Suppliers has to store the stocks at each individual epod. And each supplier only had 2 workers helping to move the stocks. That was quite pathetic. So in order to speed things up, we move our butts and get to work. We were the coolies for the day but at the same time, we were having fun. Kundos to Xinrou!! She could carry 6cartons of Ice-Cream. The carton was not heavy, but carrying 6cartons at one go is wow. I could only carry 3 uh, apparently its because of my height. lala~ Trained homed around 11pm.


@ the Loading Bay


Unloading the chiller


this is what we call ePod.

Tuesday

Counting of stocks, operating of cashier. Despite the fact that I wasn't there.

Wednesday

We had a dry run at the epod. I only reached there at 8pm as I was working before that. It was pretty much an experience for me as it was the first time I'm operating the cashier system. Closing of stocks, counting of stocks, it sure takes a long time. Had a debrief afterwhich. Ended at around 11pm. This point of time, Bingling annouced, 'Last train 11.30pm lehhh' Then our dear Sokky, Amileen and Bingling got so worked up that they quickly grabbed their bags and run for City Link. HAHAHA. It was utterly, outright FUNNY. They really did ran, in fact they were like running at lightning speed. HAHA.


during the night.


the stuffs we are selling

Thursday

Had our dry runs again. Arghh. I totally can't resist those hot chaps swinging pass me time and time again. Irresistible. At the end of the day, did our usual stuffs, closing of stocks and counting the stocks. We left the place only at 2am+. Dragged for quite some time coz Benny the boss had a slight commotion with the Coke supplier.


I snap Jacky.


Snap again.


Snap Xinrou & tiny Felicia.

Friday

The commence of Formula 1. At the end of the day, the manager, Trivian (boss sister) came and tally the cash with the report printed by the cashier. Nearly all of the epod does not tally. Jesus christ, we are damn good kids, you don't ever need to think about it. Sales at Marina Sq. outlet was not up to what Benny had expected. It was indeed really bad. The ones that are generating the money are basically the 6epods. Then again, the sales today was not much too coz apparently its a Friday and it was not the actual race. Geneveieve and I were together at Epod3. We managed to sell quite a no. of Ice-Cream. I was there like asking people to buy. Heavy laaa. Caucasians are truly a friendly bunch of people. Went home around 2am again!! What's more we have to walk quite a distance to hail for cab.


Sneak out to watch F1 with gab


Taken by gab.

Saturday

Day 2 of Formula 1. Consequently, after knowing that not much manpower is needed over at Marina Sq. Trivian saarted to send back our RP helpers home. She did that without informing us the committee. Moreover, our helpers came for only like a few hours and was send back home. So the day went on as usual. This time, the crowd was overwhelming. I was the cashier for the day plus Gene was not with me the entire day. She was feeling unwell in the morning so she came in at the later part of the day. Even so, she went Marina Sq. So my new classmate, Elizebeth was helping me as well as some other Chocz staffs. They were cutee, I swear. Elizebeth left at 6pm under the command of Trivian -.-

6pm onwards was the craziest moment yet she send my helper home. Unintelligent bitch.
I totally could not cope. Fortunately, Sokky came over and helped out for the rest of the night. After closing my epod, together with bingling we went over to the live band and chill. The caucasian simply just shake their bom bom. I just love the atmoshpere ;D

Once again, we left the place at 2am+


Jacky.


Gab


Him again.


Now you see how free he is?


Bingling.


Sunday

Day 3 of Formula 1. Gene opened the epod together with 2 other guys. I was thinking since she already had helped, I went to help out over at Xinrou epod. Opening and closing of epod is not easy for us girls at all. Just imagine the shifting of all cartons in and out, its freaking heavyyy. And yet Trivian only want 1person to 1 epod. I was helping out over at Xinrou epod and there's this Chocz staff, Maebin asked me to go back to epod3 as I was more familar with there. Hence, I just act accordingly. Around 2PM, Trivian went over Epod3 to take orders for food. Then she said to me 'You're not needed here, so if you wanna work I won't pay you.' And of coz, I was pissed. I went over to Xinrou Epod and do nothing. AND AND, I saw Tictac look-a-like! After Jacky knew about the matter, he went to confront Trivian. Gene and Jacky shouted at her. Wow, I'm touched duddies. But still, the damaged is done. Afterwhich, I was put back to Epod3. Not long after, Bingling sms me and asked if I wanna leave at 6pm. I said I'm fine with it. She too got pissed off by Trivian. At 6pm sharp, Bingling came and look for me. And we left afterwhich, together with Gabriel. I passed by Epod5 where Maebin saw me leaving and asked why I'm leaving. I couldnt care much and gave a reply saying Trivian said that I could leave.

Before leaving, Gabriel is searching high and low for his punchcard. Utmost funny scenerio, you have to see his face, totally panicky about his punchcard. He worried that he won't get paid. We sat down the bench beside Epod5. Gabriel took out someone else punchcard and tore it into half and wrote all the timings back again. Asked Jacky to sign, but Jacky said nevermind and we didnt probe more. Desperate Gabriel took out a pen and wanted to forge the signature. HAHA. He was really desperate. Bingling and I managed to stop him. Subsequently, he went to open a bottle of Coke. The drink spurt out. Bingling went to took some serviette and scotchtape from Epod5 to tape back the punchcard. Maebin shouted at us. Bingling simply just shouted back at her. Jacky came to stopped and we left afterwhich. We headed over the Grandstand to witness the final race of F1!

Dinner at Burger King.


@ Grandstand


Xinrou cam's batt died.

Not much pictures was taken on the last day as everyone was busy like mad.

I shall skip all the unjustice stuffs they did to us. Wait till for the upcoming meeting with them and see what are they planning to do. We shall see!

This is not the end.


Ohyeah, thats all.
Peacee.
