Recent and random updates

Okay finally the irritating music is down hahaha.

Today is 22th February 2008.

Lol. Nothing important about the date la.

Today was my off day from school but still I returned because the annual NUS career fair was being held! Tipsters whom had gone yesterday alerted me that formal wear wasn't required, so I went in smart casual.

Met up with Irritating Ivan. When we entered the hall, my word! Was the whole hall filled with booths and people! The event which took up 2 storeys, had companies like *heaves in a deep breath* Keppel, Siemens, AIA, CISCO, CAAS, SIA, Prisons, HDB, National Heritage Board, DSTA, Caterpillar, Emerson, Bombardier, Sembcorp, AXA, British American Tabacco, Raffles Girls, AMD *pants* and many many much more! It took me about 2 hours to walk through all the booths, stop by here and there for some freebies, asking about internship and career opportunities.

It was an eye-opener to learn that there are so many job opportunities out there which everyone has chances to excel in, be it financial, engineering, communications, human resource etc etc. I'm glad that almost every company needs engineers, however have heard that life sciences and bioengineering have difficulty looking for suitable jobs? Not quite sure about that...

Anyways, my blog isn't about serious stuffs. Serious stuffs bore people out man!

At the AMD booth... they have a competition which gives out a AMD card worth at least $300! As far as the competition is concerned, basically, it's nothing more than...
























Racing!!!!

Complete with a steering wheel and 2 foot pedals. I liked the function of the red button on the steering wheel - the NOS! aka turbo!!! You guys watched The Fast and the Furious right...

Anyways, being the racing game fanatic and self proclaimed genius at racing games, I absolutely gave it a try! At my first attempt, I drove like a woman.

OKAY OKAY PEACE! Was kidding about that! I drove like a noob cos I wasn't used to the sensitivity and kept banging into walls. My 2nd attempt was much better.

Ok after 2 hours of walking around, I went back to retry because I believed I could win it. Was only ONE second behind the best time of 44.40secs! But when we returned...

gua gua gua gua....
























Best time was broken, and currently stood at 41.40secs. SIAO BO! I attempted another 4 times but couldn't come anywhere close. :( Very disappointed! I would have gone for another 10 tries if not for the overwhelming people behind me also eager to try. HAHAHA!

Later in the afternoon back in good old Tampines, Bee and me ate 2 very nice crispy tender chicken wings each. Out of point.

We met the cutey kitty which always hung out that area.

This was the kitty some 1 year ago.


NO IT'S NOT A FAKE!

LOL. When I sat down, it leaped onto my lap and sat on my golden thighs. Hahaha so cute! But when I tried to bring it off my lap a few times, it deterred me by waving her claws at my hands. -_-

The kitty always kinds of recognises me when I call it. It'd look over keenly, then trot near to me and roll on the floor playfully. HAHAHA.

ANYWAYS! Hereby, the same kitty today.

Looking very much older and fatter. But still cute!








Bee approached her with a packet of Whiskas, the kitty immediately jumped up and was soooo eager to open it herself! HAHA! It kept meowing and fixed her eyes on that tempting 'Chicken and Tuna' flavoured pack. Bee asked why kitty interestingly licked up all the sauce before feasting on the luncheon-meat looking meat bits. I joked the kitty was having western meal, soup before main course! (You can start laughing now) The kitty ate about 3/4 of everything before hopping down from the seat and licking itself clean. It didn't appear to be very grateful to us. Hmmmm.

Oh oh oh! My mom has been saying we'll keep a dog in our new house. I want something cute like a Maltese or a Shihtzu!


Maltese








Norwich terrier.








A Pomenerian!








Shihtzu.
















But my mom wants something easier to manage, u know, the problem with dog hair.

She'd prefer a similar kind of that below...

Ooops. I mean,










Hmmm. Apparently my dad doesn't like the idea of having a dog at home. We'll see about that.

"So he killed your dad."


Is that considered a pass? Painstakingly tied a knot from a cherry tip using only my tongue.

Finally, SIN!!! From HongKong Cafe, french toast with condensed milk and butter. Heavenly! Highly recommended.

Random notes from Ye

On 2 separate occasions, I was working at my home desk when Ye sat beside, doodled on a post-it and passed it to me:
