hohoho! i havent been blogging since dont know when. Christmas has kept me pretty busy and i must say that this year's christmas was one of the best! there were 3 christmas parties and my last christmas party was spent on a farm!! I spent my december 25th on my uncle's farm, plucking chilli padis, harvesting sweet potato leaves and offered myself as a sacrifice for the damned mosquitoes there. OMG, i bet it was like a christmas feast for those six-legged anthropodas.
i also attempted to bond with all the 10 dogs there, particularly this super stubborn dog that just wont succumb to any of our cooings. by the time we were about to leave, i could only managed to touch him lightly without him trying to bite my precious phalanges off. ohwells, mission somewhat accomplished.
Oh and i met up with trish twice in a week =D with my dearest ally too!! HAHAHA we had lots of fun, erm... at the expense of ally's sanity. I AM SORRY LIJIN, once again i have failed as an ally! =X watched australia with trish and her sister yesterday. I had to watch it with someone who did ELACS before and NOPE, it wasnt a good movie. not at all.
1. the main point of "the stolen generation" was not resonated as much as they should. I felt that it ended too much like a fairytale, which is completely untrue. Just how many half-caste kids from the stolen generations would end up like that little guy from Australia? Hardly. Many of them grew up in rough living conditions although there may be some (however few) that i must admit, actually led a good life in the hands of the angmohs.
2. the movie was way too long, it was even long enough for two hero-save-the-day scenes. firstly, hugh jackman saved the day by herding the cattles onto the ship. Secondly, he rescued the half-caste kids during the bombing of Darwin. its like, "wooohooo macho hugh jackman saved the day!!" and "oh. he saved the day again -.O " too much heroic stuff! this seems like 2 episodes of PPG.
3. the characters were too stereotyped. Just look at nicole kidman. At first the way she fussed over the kangaroos was cute. Then, it got annoying -.- until the point she broke out of her prissiness during the rougher days. That was when she acted more like a normal human.
All in all, it wasnt really up to my expectations. If not for the fact that HUGH JACKMAN IS DAMN HOT, i wouldnt have liked the movie much. and yessssss omg, he's abs and chest muscles!!!!!!!! and and he's shagginess!!!! *faints*
Anyway, tomorrow shall mark the end of my wisdom tooth sufferings~ i am going for a mini surgery to remove it. As much as i have been trying to act gungho about that, I AM REALLY VERY SCARED! T.T one week of rotting at home =(((((((( SIANNNNNNNNN
ohyah, some overdue pictures from holiday to KL and Taman Negara
7hrs train ride to KL. it was not bad at all!! completely out of what i imagined it to be. it was even better than the plane. the space, seat and the butter cake they served us just coz we are in first class!! HAHAHA! sucker economy class~ HEH HEH HEH!
A PUNCHEK IN THE BUS TIRE! luckily it happened just a few metres away from our destination

A PUNCHEK IN THE BUS TIRE! luckily it happened just a few metres away from our destinationthen it was a 3hrs ride to taman negara,
I was expecting it to be something like this.....
A SAMPAN!! haha! but it actually wasnt that bad because thanks to the hint of technology they employed here, there was motor. so we didnt have to actually DAYONG the SAMPAN for 3hrs. so a big PHEW! there. the ride was surprisingly shiok!! the cool river breeze and spectacular greenerys all around was extremely soothing. there wasnt much bobbing from sidetoside, up and down or whatsoever. I even managed to finish reading a book without vomitting my guts out (:
orange cup fungi!! how cute can fungi get!!
longest canopy walk in the world!
peak of the 8km climb!! omgg its like, WE ARE HERE, FINALLY!!!!!!!! *bouts of highness* then fatigue immediately took over and we took damn long to descend.
I AM ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH ELEPHANTS, I AM GOING TO MAJOR IN THEM despite the slim possibility of getting myself a job to do with them in singapore
bathing with the elephants!!
a picture with the snake! heh! its not slimy, btw -.o
check out the contipated look on my sis's face!!!
HIAK! we just lifted a rock- stalactite! xD
limestone cave
my sister idolises me!
naughty monkey koped that from someone
muahchee in 6 different flavours!! there's lychee, mango, ribena, black sesame, pandan and originial!! WOOHOO, HEAVEN!
FOUR LITTLE CUTE LOHS UNITE!
JIALOH, WEYLOH TWINS AND HUILOH.
but the reality wasnt even remotely close -.- THIS is the one we had to sit in for 3hrs!

as requested by dear bao, i shall blog about today (:
I MET UP WITH BAO, NAO AND RIMEI AND WE WENT ECP!!! bao psycho-ed us to 1. take the train all the way to boonlay because she THINKS there will be more seats left for us to sit if we take at JE (we had to thank her ALOUD at JE for reasons that were all wrong?) 2. walk from Eunos to ECP for 2 hrs (okay fine, it was just 30minutes but it felt like 2hrs in the heat!)
So leh, by the time we actually reach ECP and got our bikes, it was noon! and we set off at 9am! LOL!! throughout the ride, we gian icecream aunties/uncles selling those $1 icecream but DONCH HAVE T.T so we made do with walls lo
and we saw TAN SUAN TIAN!!!!! hahahaha! i have such luck with teachers! first, i saw Tiger at Beauty World then we ALMOST saw Selva. ok, it was selva 20years ago maybe? anyway, TAN SUAN TIAN never forgot us! =D he's so cute, seriously!
oh, and we did a really romantic thing together (us four lah! not with tan suan tian -.-). we cycled TOGETHER in the rain!! ehh, but the post-cycling bit is not all that glamourous. We were just shivering our ass off at HK cafe. not a very romantic sight but we had fun!!! LOTS OF THEM SO ITS OKAY!!! i even looked like some freak, wearing BOTH my sunnies and bao's cap in attempt to protect my lens from the rain from shooting into my eye.
it was fun sitting at HK cafe and soaking up their seats with our wet pigus!! They gave me uncooked chicken that still had blood on it so being a typical singaporean, I COMPLAINED! The waitress came and ask me if i wanted a new dish or its ok to just change the chicken. I gave her that quizzed expression back and got myself A WHOLE NEW DISH~ Since they are so nice to me, i shall help them advertise a little
HK CAFE'S LA MIAN IS DAMN SHIOK!
yah, so we just sat there and talked, explored Sony Erisson's symbols and amused ourselves to no end. I spent like dunno how many nonsense smses spamming those symbols -.O ohwells. Cabbed back to nao's house after that. watched get smart AGAIN! and once AGAIN, i cannot stop swooning at Anne Hathaway because she is damn hot! and so is AGENT 23!! he's exactly what i am looking for in a guy!! =DDDDD *drools*
okay, back to reality- where such guys are not available anymore. what's left behind are skinny ahbengs that flood fareast and bugis *shudders*
I SHALL END THIS POST ARUPTLY because you see, bao and i are sort of having this see-who-can-finish-blogging competition and i refuse to be labelled the LAZY AND DUMB BIRD so i shall cheat and end this NOW! GOOD NIGHT!
