a new job
this shall be a random entry today. haix...after 3 weeks of holiday and resting at home, finally gotta be back in action next mon...yup..already found a new job le..as agency nurse working at a research centre...hmm...working days may not be as packed as before...which is a good thing..bad thing is income not fixed...but i figure if i get to work at least 10days per month will be good enough...aniwae...getting back to work is a good feeling as for now..haha..i hoped this job will suit me...hehe...aniwae...this is only in interim job la...contract of 6mths only...after that then see how ba...but actually just nice...contract ends at end jan...then uni application will start on feb...by then i will look for another temp job lo..then just nice...nice plan huh..hopefully everything will go smoothly as planned...if i got more money from this job...maybe i can save up and plan a next trip to taiwan again next yr...hehe...sounds crazy...but after some pondering..i will at most spend 1.5k in taiwan which is still reasonable...better than gg somewhere further spend more...or gg somewhere nearer but i dun enjoy...aniwae...just some plans and thinking...hopefully i get more assignments...then earn more..haha
just published a draft post i think written 3yrs back...haha...pretty random...but as i say...i will want to publish all posts that i've written here ma...as for the other blog..i dun think i will transfer the articles here anymore ba..personal reasons...had been lazing around these 3weeks..had plenty of sleep...which is fulfilling..learnt and attempted to bake cakes and muffins...which is fun...also rearrange my drawers of cd...bought another cabinet with 5doors to arrange all of them..now have more room for more cds le..haha...
also randomly surf net everyday...nothing special la...nothing new i am looking at as well..watched a few dramas...but still had not watched those i initially intended to watch...guess they are not interesting enough yet..now watching a tw show "di er hui he wo ai ni"...quite a lame show...or should i say unrealistic judging from what i've watched up till now...ep8...is about a married couple gg to divorce le..then the husband found some wierd high tech com which can allow him to go back in time to amend his doings...just by pressing ctrl+z ...well..but i guess this show still protrays some useful information...not to do anything that you will regret..cos there is never a ctrl+z button in real life...and also funny part is that everytime he goes back to amend something..he will make it even worse...lol...maybe this is trying to tell us...instead of looking back at things which cannot be changed anymore...why not look forward???...
aniwae...besides that also watched a lot of clips with regards to dna encore concert...all looks fantastic...recommending the clips from wqyl...nice nice...and also watch stupid interviews by them..lol..i truely believe that i cannot understand their jokes totally...i laughed because i saw their sly looks and eveil laughter...but i dun understand..arhx..better not to understand ba... a lot of random news about them as well..like masa having a pretty stable gf...(she looks so skinny...arhx...envious..)...etc etc...hmmm..i am being so ba gua...hehe...
3 more days of rest...and is back to work...hope to enjoy...tentative plans...
fri: go out buy some clothes for work...go sing kbox
sat: stay home bake another banana cake :)
sun: go to yen-j autograph

concert fanatics

a picture of jay taken at his autograph session...stood there for 3hours just to see him...well not so long la...if want to get his signature maybe i will go there earlier..but i shall not fall for 'their' evil scheme to buy an extra 40bucks album just to sign...so...just go there watch watch lo...it is still high to see him in person...but sadly he never talk much..never sing also...but the crowd surrounding to see him is horrible...first time in my life i find it so hard to exit the area...usually is hard to squeeze in ma...but if u want to go out everyone will let u go...now...i need to squeeze so hard for round 10mins to exit...but i think i am a bit sadist...haha...i just feel glad when i heard ppl at the back saying aiya...cannot even see his face...lol...luckily i managed to get clear pics of him...but hey..i stood in the sun for a few hours lo...
aniwae...i think my personality of liking to go after idols will not change even if i aged for another 10yrs ba..since 13yrs old i started liking all these superstars...until now...i tot i will mature a bit lo...but still the same...maybe this is a 'young' part of me which i never want to let go...
sadly injured my knee on tt day...i dunno what happen also...never fell...never exert any extra strength also ma...suddenly my knee became so painful...luckily now is slowly getting better...but still limping la...cannot go out of the house...haix...hopefully by next week can recover...
feel so sad...rarely jay comes for concert but i never go...although i like him for so long le...since sec one...but i never went for any of his concerts before...previously ok la...i dun have the urge to go...but this time i really got the feel to go...but no tix...even now got tix i also cannot go...haix...what makes it worse...mayday's concert in taichung is also today!!!!...their last DNA series concert...the grand finale lor...i so much wanted to go...but i know cannot la...even if i want to go also no tix available...haix...reading all those newspaper reports makes me so sad...ashin once said before the main ultimate motive of their concert is to let those who are unable to come to feel 痛不欲生...arhx...i can thoroughly understand the feeling le...never mind...next time...next time i will definitely fly taiwan for their concerts again...maybe 2yrs later like they said...haix...tt's so long before i can see them again...
aniwae...taichung is like raining heavily now from what i saw in PTT..prayers for them everything will settle and will be fine...dun be like spore like tt spoiler...rain until props spoil la...muddy area la...dampens our mood and spirit...plus they are filming the 3DNA also today...if rain so sad...so pray hard...everything will be alright!!!
aniwae...gg overseas for concert may sound so exageratting for some..but but but...if u ever tried that before...u will definitely not regret de...their concerts in taiwan is ultimately the best...longer hours...better effects...much 'high' audience...superb atmosphere...everyone will definitely stand and jump...no spoilers to seat down in front of you...concerts can last from 2000-0030...like the one i went in kaohsiung...fire effects no limit...can really burn your hair...not to mention fireworks..like no need money like that..not only ending have fireworks...beginning...middle part will also have...so...in one word...concerts there are definitely better...oh ya...and more hokkien old songs also...unlike here pathetic 2songs...hmmm...a bit too little lor...
well..of cos i am not saying spore ones are not good..all have their own good points la...just theirs a bit more better...but spore ones of cos i will definitely support as well...like the free concert at stadium green...first time i have the experience of queuing more than 12hours to chop a nice place...squeezing in the crowd when the concert starts...and jumping hard right from the start because...many worms in the grass area...haha...828.829 concerts are great as well...one super near to the main stage...one super near to the extended stage...both concerts lasted almost 4hours as well...with a bit more hokkien songs also...the recent april concert was so so only due to the stupid heavy rain...but it is because of the rain that i had the experience of standing and jumping in the mud...the first thought i have when i stepped into the national stadium was like...die..my shoes gone...just imagine the sinking into the ground feel...errrr....until now the mud prints on my shoes still there lor...unwashable...but i love the memory...cos these all those little things that makes the concert unique for one...and of cos the super huge stage as well...and the super big bumblebee...first time i saw such a huge stage in singapore...hehe...really as big as the one in kaohsiung le ba...maybe a big smaller only...haha...and also the stupid chairs they put in the national stadium...is those kopitiam type..(not air con kopitiam..is those coffee shop kind of chair)...all the chairs are wet...but i never bother that much...just sit down and dry it with my butt...hahaha...really nice memories thinking back...all are so funny...
and and and...also not to forget about finding the entrance for the concert...we toured around the national stadium one round lo...hate it when the signs are not clear...waste time to find entrance..what's worse..the time they take to let us in is simply too long...until like 8pm also not in yet...in e end...they just say raise up your tix...then can go in le...really like bullshit lor...first time i saw this..no need check tix de...then i can just anyhow take one tix and forge la...hahah..angry yet funny...but at national stadium at least not so bad la...we never take very long to find the entrance...remember when i was at kaohsiung...i went to search for my entrance after i send my mum in to her seat...damm it...have you ever wonder how big the stadium is at kaohsiung???...walking 1/2 round of the stadium took me almost 20mins...plus my speed of walking is not tt slow lo...super big man tt place...then it was like freezing cold then as well 15deg...with me alone touring round and round the stadium to search for entrance...actually...i was feeling quite panic then...cos me alone in a foreign country ma...seeing the time of the start of concert drawing nearer...and i am no where near the entrance...after like 45mings of searching...finally found the entrance...which is like at the basement...the carpark area...really want to throw stones already lor...we are like walking below the stadium ..like secret entrance like tt...but it was a great relief when i finally enter to my seat...i was like..woah!!!..row 9 is so in front...the stage is so big...my neck is gonna ache...heheh...oops..i am getting over excited...but i can never forget tt day...i will never ever forget...how nice it is to be there watching the concert...15deg coolness...but the atmosphere is so warming...all the fans are so cheerful and warm there...remembered that i was actually seating right between a couple...dunno how come they buy there seats this way also la..but in e end..i look at the guy and the gal...we just laughed...and automatically got up and exchange seats...hehe...without any words also..hmmm...it was a nice feeling...dunno why la...
aniwae...even today i cannot be at their concert at taichung...but i will be here wishing for their success as well...not to worry..all will have chances to watch it in theatres later part..hehe...it was their DNA concert which change me and my path...i will never forget this important part of my life...the thing which allow me to change the thing that given me courage to change...i will look forward to their next series of concert...

memorable 55555 people concert in kaohsiung!!!

it all started with dna
sudden urge to blog about something...just something...was reading my previous posts..interesting..haha...and some hidden and unpublished ones...maybe one day i shall publish all of that...cos all are interesting...some are direct, some are indirect...but all are directed to a person or an event particularly...or rather directed to a particular feeling of mine which i could not say out at that point of time...ussless me as usual...i am just not daring enough to say out things i am thinking at times...
aniwae...the sudden urge of mine started when i was reading some fanatic posts of mine..haha..anticipating concerts...concerts rundowns...etc...so funny...but i can really re-feel the excitment i had when i read throught the entries...hehe...benefits of a blog...and it all started with this DNA concert...from the DNA concert..i told myself yes...i cannot be like what they've described...(sorry to those who never watched their concerts)...yes...i must also do something to my life...yes...i have the right to pursue my dreams...and the strength to search for a new dream just came like that...
so after that...i begun the journey of researching all sorts of courses available...and finally decided on education...one part i tot i will like it cos i am one who likes to be in-charge of everything...another part maybe is because it is a fully sponsered course...aniwae...i really put in my fullest effort to achieve a placement in this course...applications...interview...medical check up...everything was done...but in e end...i did not had the courage to sign the bond afterall...perhaps deep down i already know i may not really like this course...it may be for the sake of just studying...it may be just because i no need to pay anything for this..plus the need for 2 sureties...plus my dad's objection...i gave up in the end...
then i realised...to pursue something requires effort...to give up something...requires more effort and courage...i've cried through...i've locked myself in the room...in e end ...after much pondering giving up seems to be the best option...
but i am not running away...sometimes things are just not easy as it is...getting 2 ppl to sign for your bond is difficult enough....also considering the bond liabilites...understandable that ppl are hesitant to sign for me..although i know they will if i insist...understandable that my dad objects as teaching may be just as hard as nursing...sometimes...it is not enough that u hanged on...just me myself i can achieve nothing..so what if i insist...so what if i dun give...if i really force my way through...can i really be happy?? to defy my parents to insist on what i want...although i will still decide my own path...but if this means to disobey my parents and making them unhappy...i rather not do it...so i believe i've made a right choice in giving up...it may be wasted...it may be silly...but i strongly believe my dad is more important than anything else in the world...
so now..career path unknown...but again i know i made the right choice not to stay in my ward..no regrets...although i am forgoing my bonus...i am leaving my friends and colleagues..now i may seem slacking at home...but no one knows that i am actually surfing net everyday to search for a suitable job...researching course details to see what i want to study next year...and of course resting my mind...to prepare for the next journey...
i may be old to enter uni next yr...but i believed this is a right choice...one yr more to think carefully as this may be the last time i get to choose my career and path...one more yr to relax and enjoy...aniwae...did i mentioned here that during my last day i was deployed out??...well...i think i am indeed affected by this...cos i really hoped to be in my own ward for the last day...but apparently...i am not..felt sad cos i felt unwanted..although i am leaving...but i tot this is not the right way to treat ppl...aniwae..this makes me more accertain that i made a right choice in leaving...for now...i will just continue to rest...and slowly look for a job...

since we are already wet..we sat right in front at the soak zone...but with our ponchos on la...so not so wet...hehe


see...the smokey atmosphere after all the fire and explosions...and of cos the plane which flew in...

loves the setting in universal studio...even the toilets are so nice and atas...restrooms they called it..haha...

universal studio trip part 2
Part 2 of the universal studio trip upload...did not stay long at sci fic city as i mentioned in the last post...proceeded to the ancient city...egypt...mummy world...which is simply cool there...and of course..not forgetting our fave ride of all...revenge of the mummy...already heard from friends that this will be a thrilling ride..so..mentally prepared...but in e end...no high drops...no scary backdrops...just darkness and turns....ok...the backward jerk did scared all of us...but still a bit disappointed that this is no thrilling drops or what...unlike ocean park in hong kong...which the outdoor coaster is thumbs up for all the drops...but still...atmosphere for this ride is still there...we still screamed...and it is officially my fave ride in USS...only rode twice tt day...next time i go there..i will try more times..haha...and sitting first row is cool...cos the impact is really a lot more realistic and exciting than sitting the last row..
next went over to jurassic park...brought back memories of the movie...which i think i watched all 3 movies...ok..i dun really like dinosaurs...they are scary looking...and also makes me remembered some bad incidents during pri sch...not exactly bad...or terrible or what...just happened to have a classmate...who loves dinosaurs...and talked about it all day and night...and we are sitting in the same row...end up..i think i am traumatised by all his dinosaur talk..haha...thinking back really funny...pri sch kids..getting annoyed and irritated by all these minor issues...tt's me back then...of cos with other classmates...and i think we were really quite mean to him at that time...well...kids..hahaha



the rapid adventure ride was ok...the settings are good..got storyline somemore...but sadly the ride is not scary at all...the drop is like so low only...but the impact is there la...cos it got us all wet...and to think me and emily keep saying we must choose the luckiest seat...cos from observation u can see that in this 9seater boat...there will only be 1-2 unlucky ones who will get like wet...others will come out dry and unscathered...but in e end....
we end up soaked...i am soaked from the top only...my hair and shirt...but emily is soaked thoroughly..lol...unlucky ones...one great thing about the ride is the part when we went in the hydroelectric plant...which is really completely dark...cannot even see a thing...dark...tt's scary...cos i am really afraid of dark...otherwise ok..hehe...hope they have higher water rides
see the impact of the boat..though not so high...but water splashes still...
next to far far away land...the beautiful castle is here..haha...but i prefer disneyland's castle..haha

shrek 4D is really cool...love the part when the seats rocked like in the horse carriage...tt's cool...and also the sneezing part when the water splashes to the face...haha...but i dun really like the 3little pigs part in e beginning when they keep calling us prisoners..feel that the intro is a bit too long...and we need to stand there somemore...but still...we watched this twice..haha...pictures taken during 2nd time..when i was bored standing there..



another ride we went is this enchanted thinggi..forgot the full name...it is like a family outdoor coaster...looks pretty exciting from the outside..but it is really a family coaster to name..cos...no drops...although fast but no thrill...ok...i think i am spoilt...haha...i really misses hong kong's coaster rides...their coaster drops makes u feel ur heart flying up and out...really...

this ride is still new and unopened...but heard that it will be exciting with higher water drops..can look forward to this ..

this means merry-go-round la..just that the beautiful fairytale liked horses now become animals..haha...interesting but i did not go on this ride...if it is the traditional one i will ride...cos i love the old classic merry-go-round...like the one is taiwan 六福村...which also appears in mayday's MV 你不是真正的快乐...well merry-go-round is just so fairytale and makes ppl dream...haha...aniwae...last photo for this post will be our lunch...pizza...cheap and filling..hehe...

shall continue USS part 3 perhaps tmr or later tonight...

universal studio trip
Wow...a week since i rest at home...although i went out every single day...i should say i really have ample rest...haha...of course la..no need to work..no stress...of cos everyday is relaxing although i went out everyday...and i was just telling my mum today that i felt that i had very good sleep these few days...then she say no work no stress of course can sleep well...true true...i still can wake up at 0730 to jog..lol...
Anyway...although it is getting late now...sudden urge to blog about something happy..i guess i had not blogged anything regarding the universal studio trip....so shall blog a little now ba...
With the experience of not able to enter due to tickets sold out...me and emily decided to meet slightly earlier this time round..haha...which is like on 1/7/10...though we said to meet 0830...i think we only arrived 0900...due to a late night for me la...exciting...to prepare for a wasted trip..i even bought along clothings...just in case we go to beach or whatever...and emily only bought along her dslr...haha...journey to resort world sentosa by bus...
Luckily we managed to get tickets on that day...66bucks...
next place we went is sci-fic city...which sadly is quite deserted...only ride there is the accelerator...which is another version of tea cup...which i dun really like..cos what u do is just to spin and spin...and what u feel is no excitement..only giddiness...but still..we got on that ride...reasonable to try every ride..or rather as much rides as we could...quite side for sci-fic city that the main attraction there...or rather the whole uss is closed...battlestar...pls reopen soon..i will definitely try both cylon and human...


Ok...part one finished...shall continue tmr ba...although now there is facebook to upload all photos...but i still prefer blogging...pics and words...easier to remember ma...

officially jobless
It is officially the end of my nursing career in NUH...strangely on my last day of work...i did not feel any wave of sadness or what...somehow...i feared going back to work after 4days of rest...which i spent all fruitfully...then gg back for morning shift today..or rather yesterday...was fearful and wierd...it seems like i had not worked for years...but one thing i feel sad is...on my last day of work..i am not in my ward but deployed to our 'sister' ward...although i had been there many days for these few rosters and knew the staff there pretty well...i just feel sad not being in my own ward for the last day...and it just gets me thinking that they are all ready to 'throw' me away???...pardon me for thinking that...but...it is just sad not able to work with my own colleagues on the last day...resulting me not able to say bye to everyone officially...so just this point alone makes me feel that i made a good decision to leave???..aniwae...i will still miss my friends in the ward...i think i had made so many friends there and is really grateful to them for all their help...getting deployed to the other ward is ok too actually for me...less stressful...and they held a mini farewell party for me today...touched+++...to think my own ward sent me away on this impt day to me...
aniwae...enjoyed myself today....this whole week i had been going out every single day...too many things to update...and a lot of photos too...also a big thank you to my colleagues in ward...for getting me the camera i liked...hehe...loved the functions very much...i will take my time to slowly arrange the pics and upload all here...

i think this few days i spent minimal amt of money on things...or rather none...cos i never buy anything...but i spent so much on food...arhx..
friday: worked until 12++am...then meet candy for supper...had curry chicken in the middle of night
saturday: met wes and joanne after work at 10pm, went flyer to eat popeye...then went marina bay sands...
sunday: went to expo with family...then went suntec...ate nyny...
