Watch this and be marvelled. Be prepared for some goosepimples and possibly some tears (if you are emotional like me).

Hehe, enjoy! (:

We are in the news! HURHUR!

This is totally believable. (:

I was just reading this article from the widely acclaimed highly unreliable source, filled with advertisements (especially call-me-if-u-r-lonely adverts), gossips on who's dating who and who's doing what which is technically none of your shitty business and a newspaper which all my senior high school teachers have warned me from reading but i read anyway newspaper - THE NEWPAPER -

And this is what i found!

MJC students on scoring As for project work
Teachers guide us a lot
Despite some JCs doing better, some teachers say it's 'spoon-feeding' and inconsistent

I almost got an UNEXPLAINABLE THRILL from reading this article!! HAHAHA.

And only ex-MERDIANS or suay-kias (tsk tsk, us unlucky kids) like me can understand WHY.

all i can say is.

MOTHER F*UKERS.

Before you lead a school PLEASE FOR YOUR MOTHER'S AND EVERYBODY'S MOTHER'S SAKE kindly read ARISTOTLE AND HIS PHILOSOPHER FRIENDS' TAKE ON THE PURPOSE OF EDUCATION.


and stop being a bunch of detractors, its just not quite right.


Well, on a lighter note, i saw a group on facebook that reads:

"I was late for lecture because i missed the NUS shuttle!"

(:

Reminds me of something that had happened to my dear friend Xiao wei during her first 3 months in TPJC.

I miss her.

I hope shes not sick of Shanghainese food yet.

I vividly remembered the flour noodles served with a whole chunck of peanut butter i had when i was visiting her..

(>.<")

Thai food that binds. (:

With foods that bind - friendship, tastes and even stomachs.

Jar and Vivian are two very special individuals whom i had gotten acquainted with in this Kyoto University exchange program. I learnt alot from them and am motivated a notch higher whenever i am with them.

Previously, before i had known better, i had thought that i was a hardworking and determinded person. However, as life lessons and events happen, i realise i am but a lazy bum monkeying with life.

in today's term: a weaksauce.

This time, it is the people i meet - Jar and Vivian in particularly who make feel as though i should start making improvements and not excuses with my behaviour and my life.

Most important of all, i enjoy their company thoroughly and am very very glad and appreciative that i can meet them and the rest of the 4th floor-ers here in cold cold Japan.

(:

I am happy.

3.24am

Its 3.06am

We are going for a Kabuki play later in the morning. Truth be told, i'm not particularly excited about it but i'm having good company tomorrow so, i am more than glad to go (:

Beats staying in the room all day eh. Baby always tells me to go out and some sunshine, like i will get mouldy if i won't. -_-"

Anyway, i have a speech presentation on sunday afternoon in Senshoji.

And surprise of all surprises, it'll be in everyone's beloved Japanese.

(:

To all: "Thank you for your overconfidence in me lah hor."

all 6 pages of Japanese! I'm having my prematured 研究はっびょう! (:

I'm in good hands, i can do it (:

Oh, the 2 photos above, i'm just reminiscing about last's week journey to Taisekiji!

Getting was one adventure i wouldn't be forgetting soon! Haha, but i have to practice my presentation now!

haha, so guai.

After 3 hours of proscrasination.

BAH.

Dinner party after work. (:

Went to work on Friday. And AGAIN! I had to rush for the train, must be the bad karma from being lazy to wake up 5 minutes earlier.

Well Boss decided that it would be nice to have dinner together after work and i stayed back in the school after work to wait for Izacc to finish his class with lil' Ono -(?-not sure if this is his name) hehe.

Ono had an English test! I made tea and snacks for him whilst he was 'eeeh-toh-ing' and 'errrr..' ing on his paper.

hehe..

this was what i saw..

学校　=　skel
ありがとう=tenk yew

*smiles*

So cute right. I know that he knows the answer but the spelling was just a little too 複雑 for him. But come to think of it..

'Skel' DOES sound like 'School' and 'tenk yew' DOES sound like 'Thank You'

Now, i understand the pain of learning English! Haha, now my pain of learning Japanese isn't so bad. at least it isn't as tonal as Mandarin or English! (only in the case of Ono-chan)

Just in case you were wondering, when it came to the oral practice Ono-chan scored full marks! :D


Anyway!

DINNER CAME!

Izacc was hoping that we would have 焼き肉..Haha! But his hopes (and mine too) were crushed when we saw boss coming through the door with containers of food and cans of cocktail.

バイバイヤキニク！ ^^
[bye bye Yaki Niku] ^^

But at least we had some non-alcoholic beer (?) and Izacc was still happy :D



Just give him his 面白い味のビール！

The food was great though it was not anything close to 焼き肉.


Really good Okonomiyaki! Courtesy of boss's grandmother ^^ Obasan, arigatou neh!

Not really Yakiniku and not even remotely Japanese but delicious anyway ^^

One of the sweetest and most loving couple i've ever met. They never held hands and were not even seated next to each other during dinner but you can really sense the love and adoration Takeshi has for his wife.

Can u believe they are both mothers-of-two? Hehe! The lady on the left is my boss. ^^
Such lovable ladies don't you think? :D

STAR OF THE DAY!!!!

A GREAT WAY TO END AN AWESOME DINNER!

I love my job and my colleagues!

Not hard to see why eh?

:D

<3

Family..

I miss home and Singapore dreadfully.

More so, i miss my family so much.

Sunday lunches, movies and grocery shopping with some kopi-sweu-dai and toasted bun along the way never fail to make my week a more wholesome and sweet one.

I wonder what movies i have missed so far.

I slept at 8.30am this morning because i was trying so hard to retrieve the photos which had been deleted by my computer when i first arrive in Japan.

After 5 months of trying, i finally got to getting it done.

It was well worth it! I spent my day today just gazing at them pictures and thanking the fact that i had taken these pictures, of which i now can spend my lonely days in Japan with.

Nah, i'm not sad, regretful or self-pitying. Don't mistaken me.

I am very grateful for being able to come to Japan and be a student of Kyoto University. In fact, i am happy. Truly, i am. But, choices and goals come with a price and that price for me would be the time with my loved ones.

And i made a choice.

I love my family dearly, my thoughts, prayers and love will always be with them. That, no matter where i am or what choice i make, will never falter.

That, for what I'm sure and what i know, is the only factor constant in my life.

Happy new year baby..

I'm starting to miss him more and more these days. Especially since its the festive season now! Wonder how its like to welcome the new OX year with him and my family by my side. hehe. not bad lah.

Most of all,

i wanna give him a big bear hug and sing to his face.

恭喜恭喜你呀，恭喜恭喜你！每个人的..something something.

something something...就是恭喜恭喜。。

as for the second choice of song i will sing for him.

财神到财神到你家们口 (repeat 10 times accordingly)

HAHAHA!

(:

wonder if he will confiscate my red packet for doing so!

*grins*

well, i will find out next year ^^
