*throws a fit*

-starts doing 50 star jumps-

I have come to a concluded conclusion which concludes that I, Loisa, emits EMP (electro magnetic pulse) which causes all technological electronic goods within a radius of 3 metres from me to cease functioning.

First my phone died. Dead pixels MYSTERIOUSLY starts appearing and spreading.

Then, my dryer MYSTERIOUSLY explodes.

Immediately after, my washing machine MYSTERIOUSLY starts pfft-ing and vibrating like... like a... well imagine a thousand vibrating fishballs spasm-ing and wriggling in mid air. Something like that.

Anyway, i'm just ranting now. It's so tiring. All stay at home mums and housewives have my utmost respect now. One heck of a day today. COOKING is one thing. After cooking, must SCRUB pots like nuts (okay cause i burnt the pot). Then wash and dry dishes. Then wash laundry. HANDWASH by the way. Then got caught in the rain. So HANDWASH another load of clothes. PLUS HANDWASH DOG. I wish i could throw the dog into some dishwasher thing and she'll be cleaned just like that.

Then not finished you know! Handwash all the towels and rags (since i bathed dog might as well do the rags too). Then huh, the yard toilet is entirely not feasible to wash ANYTHING. There's a step there, and the place is SO SMALL, you have to squat on the step, bend your back, and scrub and wash everything. And towels are so heavy when soaked with water. And the movement of washing things.. ughh

My back is like aching. My arms are crappy. And my hands are extremely dry. The detergent plus soap plus dishwashing liquid... KILLER of skin cells.

I can't imagine if after doing all this, i have KIDS to look after. Now i know what my mum went through years years years ago when we didn't have a maid, and i was this tiny kpo kid who constantly followed her around and wanted to stick my nose into everything she did.

Okay i'm done complaining. Need to put some cream on hands already. Cracking. Pain geez.

With my first pay cheque, i'm gonna buy a washing machine and dryer. Maybe a dog washer as well if they have one. Anyone? Invent one please >.<

how can i be young and old at the same time!!!

I'm young...

But i feel old!!

*gurgle*

Family and Babies

And yes, another random post. I'm obviously not studying eh.

Angel recently blogged about babies, and recent events has made me think about my own family, or rather my own family to be, or family to create.

A friend's marriage... Mrs. Koh's babies... Mike and Ken's talk about wives... Amelia's dream wedding date of 12.12.12... (which btw amelia, is approaching really soon)

I do want to get married, and i want kids, loads of them. Tiny little things that grow up into big horrors, but still the loves of my life.

I want a loving God-fearing husband, a beautiful marriage, happy kids, lots of animals roaming all around a HDB flat, and no maid.

I want to take care of my kids MYSELF. With my husband of course.

But i'm thinking, is that God's plan for me? Will i find a good man? Will my kids be raised right? Will they grow up and be spiritually strong?

Mike's afraid of marriage, cause he's afraid of seeing the same face for 24 hours for the rest of your life.

I'm afraid of... everything. -.- Childbirth. What you do BEFORE childbirth to get a child. What you do when you DO get your kid. How to maintain that relationship with husband and kids.

Oh yeah, getting back to amelia's dream wedding date, i realized i have one criteria before marriage. I'll have to date that fella for quite a while before enterting marriage. So bio clock ticking! Find someone. Date what, 2, 3 years? Then marry. Then get kid. STRESSED??

What on earth am i talking about?

I'll think about all these again when i get am financially independent. I think i'm starting to think too much. Cause i'm worrying about a job. Then i started to worry about future. My brain's gonna burst. It seems i'm slowly realizing how alone you are when you're done with studying. I mean, you just worry about grades. That's all. But when you graduate, OH MY GOODNESS. HOWW????

I so envy those who are still studying. All my peers just started their undergraduate studies. AND I AM GONNA BE DONE SOON. D.e.a.d

November 22, 2008

So... Sean and I were debating over supper about beef, cows, bulls, BULLESS, ox, and oxen.

Beef = cow. Correct?

That we established.

But what we were arguing over were...

What's the female of a bull?
Sean: BULLESS. Bullis? Bullus?
Loisa: -.- (what nonsense...) cow!!
Sean: No... definitely not cow.

What's the female of an ox?
Sean: No female
Loisa: cow?
Sean: NO LA. Anyway you said a cow is female of bull.
Loisa: oxen?
Sean: YEAH i think it's oxen.
Loisa: Isn't cow and bull the same thing?
Sean: -.- different species la!

What's the plural of ox?
Sean: No plural. Cannot be oxes right?
Loisa: Yeah, no plural i guess.

So people, what's your take?

November 20, 2008

Good evening people! It's a beautiful evening indeed. Haha pretty twinkling stars in the sky now.. ahh lovely. God's so good eh, he made pretty glittering stars for us to see in the lonely boring nights.

ANYWAY, WHOOT WHOOT do i hear cheer people? Haha all projects and assignments are over. O.V.E.R. YEEEAAAHHHH... No more 45 minutes of sleep and wearing the same yoga pants for every presentation. No more blisters on the feet and walking like a duck on those heels. No more drooling on laptops and falling asleep on bathroom floors. Best of all, no more frustrations and anger and hurt! Isn't that nice.. =))

What's NOT nice, is that.... THE EXAMS ARE HERE.

I can't wait for everything to end. I have really been loving my sleep the last two days.

Did you know i am able to sleep for more than 12 hours? I'm amazed!! I've always wondered how it's possible for people to sleep 16 over hours after a camp or during holidays and stuff. NOW I KNOW.

On tuesday night, after our final presentation, i really died during critical thinking. I actually fell asleep during class. While he was talking. And not those nodding nodding kind of sleep. It was literally the lie head on table, open mouth, drool, kind of sleep. After dinner with mum, i came home, kissed her, and tada, i fell asleep on my coffee table. Meaning whole body on the coffee table. Yeah don't ask. THat was 7plus pm in the night by the way.

Anyhow, the next morning, jane woke me up for class selections, around 8am. Goodness. Kill me. I still wanted to sleep so bad. Obviously i didn't do any work that night. The thing is, when i woke up, i found myself on the bed. Either mummy miraculously acquired loads of strength and carried me to bed, or i sleep walked there myself.

Talking about sleep walking, this is superbly funny. Kenneth was my alarm clock for one morning, cause the night before i had about 45 minutes of sleep only. He woke me up, but then he called me a second time. When i picked up, i went "kenneth, KENNETH? KENN!!" But all i got in response was...

"zzz snoorreee zzzzzzz ZZZZZZZZ"

hmmm... i think i'm in the unconscious minds of everyone cause cherie called me today as well, and all i heard was "tii-toooo-tiiiii." And lots of bus sounds...

Jane called me a few times too with no response. But i guess nothing can beat the time when i blanked smsed poor aud like 50 over times.

Okay i'm rambling. I've gotta get back to work and study. NO MORE SLEEPING SO MUCH LOISA! Time to study! =))

16th November 2008

So well yesterday we were supposed to celebrate angel's birthday, but it was kinda of a disaster and i cried. Embarrassing much? YEA!! But he kept scolding and scolding me, and he was so harsh. So i walked out before i burst into tears in public. Later, angel told me he started scolding her as well.

Anyway angel and i walked away from him and we had our own thing together. We felt so much better after that. That's us!! =D



And here's some random photos from the last few days that i didn't blog.

Kenneth and i spent some time with kai, and had dinner with him when he got back. There's kenneth when he walked home with me. He walked so darn fast i had to run in front of him to take it. I wanted to take the scenery with him, but he kept walking so everything's blur.



And finally, there's PEBBLES! Watching "200 pounds beauty". -____- I suddenly had to pee, so i left the video running and when i got back, there was pebbles in my spot on the couch. ---_---

Drama Queens

I was just clearing my received files and guess what i found!! Something from a long long long LONNNNG time ago...

Haha this is what we do, late at night, in the midst of doing projects, when we are frustrated and tired, and when we have no idea what to do with our newly purchased scarves.

Enjoy ~~

10th Novermber 2008

Okay after hearing this song again and again on television, i have come to a conclusion. Advertisements are effective. Why? Cause now i'm addicted to the song.

So hear it is, changed the song on my blog. Although the first part is a bit annoying, cause i just want to hear the TUNE, not the seductive words in front. But nevermind, within a few seconds she starts singing. Happy!!

I really really REALLY want cream puffs now. The ones which oozes out cream.. Creamy cream that spills out from the sides of your mouth. OOOO ahhh... OBSESSION. Gahh

HAPPY!!

WHOOT ALRIGHT GOD!

hahahaha happpyyy just received a call plus fax from the doctors... and IT IS CONFIRMED! I AM CLEARED OF EVERYTHING HOW COOL IS THAT!!! So miracle service and the GOOD LORD WORKED. As usual. What can you expect from a loving Father who cares for me sooo much. =D Now no more blood tests and what not. EVERYTHING IS OVER hello LIFE! hahahah

ANYWAY, I'm taking a break from critical thinking here cause my head hurts. I'm not born to think critically. I was born to be blur. Okay no. I rather be annoyingly critical of everything than dumb and blur.

So talking about movies and crying, Jia Zhen and i were stuck on this movie last night. Last morning. Whenever. (U.S. and Singapore timing different). ABSOLUTE BOYFRIEND. Japanese movie right? Trust them to always make poor loisa cry. I couldn't stop watching. Wasted a lot of my time but sigh. Okay happy ending. I love happy endings. Let's see what movies made me cry...

(OKAY ANGEL. almost every movie okay? Even when the bad guys die. I know i know. Don't say anything. ANYTHING.)

There's Quill (doggie!), Helen the Fox (FOX!!), erm... 10 Pomises to my Dog (another doggie!), Na something. Shou Na? Na Shou? Nada? Not Nana. Okay Nana made me cry too. But there's another Japanese movie about this brother and sister. Must ask JZ or Eileen or Jocelyn about movie title. What else have i watched? Yeah absolute boyfriend, and OH NO! Goong is it? The one with Kim Jeong Hoon inside! Princess Hours? Princess Diaries? no. Aiya.. that movie la. The one that was aired on channel U.

Yeah so see? They have a knack for making me cry. Honestly, i wouldn't have cried if the actors and actresses didn't cry, and if there wasn't any music. And if i was blind, deaf and mute.

Okay I'm rambling. Back to work. See ya!

ps: The movie is Nada Sou Sou! Jane just told me the title! Smart girl haha

Pebbles

Alright so for your entertainment,

i'll upload some pictures showing my progress with training my dog. I'm currently teaching her how to pass the ball back to me, and how to dance. She sometimes sings to the radio as well but i didn't train her to do that. In fact i'd love to train her to STOP, but nevermind.

The Cha-Cha



The Singing



The Howling



The Ball (Note again: Gotta stop the music cause this video caught my voice as well

Guinea PIg

Today i saved a guinea pig. Apparently, an old lady was carrying it when it flew off the balcony of a HDB flat and landed on a branch of a nearby tree. Don't ask me how it flew. The only possible reason was that the old lady flung it but never mind. She said it flew, so okay, it flew. Maybe it's one of those flying squirrels, same goes for the guinea pig. When it opens up its arms, there's a blanket like thingy which helps it fly. New species of guinea pig.

ANYWAY, the point it, i swung (yes i swung, not flew) from the balcony, somersaulting into the air like those trapeze acts, and landed on the branch. It's a thick branch by the way. Okay so i didn't somersault, but i really did swing like tarzan so i could reach the tree. It's 2 stories high by the way, so i wouldn't plummet to my death or anything if i had missed. But usually i don't miss. I'd like to think I'm talented enough not to miss. Haha but i'm not. I'm just lucky. But i didn't think of possible consequences at that point of time. So i picked up the pig and stuffed it into my shorts. There was no pockets. Where else could i put it? Certainly not in my mouth. It was wriggling a lot and i think it made a hole in my pants so yeah well. Can sew it.

After i smartly got the pig, i realized i could not possibly swing myself back to the HDB flat. Fantastic right? So who were called to save ME? Fire brigade. GEEZ. BUT thank goodness, while the old lady was making the call, i decided to try to climb down. And somehow i managed it, scraping my knee a bit. Hmm I'm quite good at climbing down trees.

I think i know why. Mum explained it to me before. I can climb down from anywhere very well. But i can rarely climb UP. That's cause i was trained from young. Dad used to put me on branches at botanical gardens etc. But he always forgot to take me down. And then he'll disappear to drink kopi or something. So in order to survive, i had to learn how to climb down. I'm like a backward monkey. I can hug things and slide down very well, but my legs aren't long enough to go up. Maybe that's why I'm terrible at rock climbing. My backside is simply too heavy to lift up and go UP. But my abseiling is like whooaaa... haha... Okay granted that i usually slip off the platform before i am ready to abseil but that's' another story.

Alright enough of the musings of loisa. I just wanted to blog about how the dooms day of a guinea pig was turned into live day.

oh here's a picture of a guinea pig that looks similar to the one i saved.

25th October 2008

Great so i am officially wide awake after drinking more sabah tea. I was so absolutely tired when i get home, but my parents were busy so i had to wait for them to be done before i could wash up and sleep. Thus, the tea.

Since i can't sleep now, but am in no mood to do my reflection paper, i shall blog about today.

Guess what? Today was the UB Masked Party. Yep, at Zouk. (i finally got the name right yay!)

Jane, Christine and i went down REALLY early, and stared into the air til people started arriving. Then we nearly died perspiring to death. We've really got to thank Christine for staying with us. So anyway, it was tough. REALLY tough getting people to take pictures. They just simply didn't want to pay 3 bucks for it! But oh well. We tried, we truly did. And we took so many pictures on our own. -_-

So.. my first and probably last experience of entering a club.

- Had to check ID. -.-
- very dark. But i glowed, cause i wore white. interesting.
- Cannot see anyone. foggy. Kept tripping
- Loud music, headache. At first it made me tap my feet, but after a while the beat was a bit too much for my weak heart
- DEAFENING. btw, i'm STILL deaf. So don't talk to me for the next few days. I can't hear.
- i simply can't dance.
- i simply can't drink either. Taste doesn't appeal to me.

Anyway some people were quite kind =) I know they took pictures because we asked.. Really kind thank you all so much =))

Okay, I've got nothing else to say, so I'll just post pictures.



Jane took this for me when we were testing out the camera =)



Jane, Christine and Me! I love this one =)



I like this one too! Hahaha guess who's in the same school and council as me? Jane Leong! GRIN



Okay this is one of Gerard and me. Somehow we were conned into taking one, but since we did, i wanted one too! haha thank you Gerard. Haha he paid for it for mee GRIN

And now for the finale...



THAT IS PRETTY JANE! Can't you recognize her? Oh you can't see? Okay yeah. You can SOOO tell who took it. Yours truly. That is why, Jane was the one in charge of the camera today. I am obviously not a good photographer.

23rd October 2008

It is now 7.30pm only and i'm falling asleep while standing. zzzz Tough week man! Really pushes you, but everything was done on time, and to the best of my abilities, so yay! haha

Oh guess why i'm standing? Cause i fell asleep in my soup on the table. So i took away the chair hoping i'd keep awake if i'm standing. Ha YEAH RIGHT should have known better. So now i'm typing while waiting for krystel's email then i can start work! =)

My sabah tea is brewing. Yeah i finally opened the packet and tried it. I've been procrastinating. Thank goodness it hasn't expired. Couldn't bear to look at it for.. WAHHH 10 months what the... I'm pathetic man. Haha but ANYWAY, it's DAMM GOOD. You guys should try it! I'll make a cup for you if there's any left after tonight at the rate i'm drinking haha.

Keeps me awake. For like 5 minutes. So i've been drinking every 10 minutes. Yeah, i'm on my third teabag now. And to think that 2 cups of tea can be made from one teabag. SO... there are 17 bags left. Cool! Enough to last til like 4, 5 am?

Sigh...

OO goodie! Just received Krys's email! BACK TO WORK! See ya people! =)

ps: this was posted so late cause i was so kan chiong that i forgot to click "publish post". alamak

14th October 2008

WELL

Council isn't quite working out to be well, erm, fulfilling? Or rather, it's kind of demoralizing. As in we don't seem to be able to help much, or that we're not really needed, so it's a bit zzz. We'll see how it turns out. Macham running around queensway to try and get things done fast then in the end, aiyoo.

tsk tsk.

Gotta remember to borrow shirt from jane on friday. No wait she doesn't have school. Thursday. Jane! If you're reading this, remind me to remind you.

Oh about today's critical thinking class, ZZZZZ. Michelle, cherie, and i were totally zzzz when he went through our mid term answers. Haha... He's an odd lecturer seriously. But class today was quite fascinating. The student advisor plus kevin came down to sit in.

Ummmkay. Nothing much to blog about. SEE PEOPLE? I have nothing to blog about! haha blogging sometimes normal is borrringgg... haha

6th October 2008

Hey so guess what?

Today my oh so loving parents drove off to dinner without me. As in they got into the car, drove off, and left me standing there in the basement carpark. -_-

Picture this.

A family of three walks out of the lift and toward their family car.

Dad unlocks the front two doors and gets into the driver's seat.

Mum gets into the passenger seat.

Kid jingles the door knob, grumbling to mum that dad didn't open ALL the doors AGAIN.

Mum doesn't answer, shuts the door.

Dad starts ignition, and drives off.

Kid runs after the car.

Security guard realizes what happens and chases the car, and knocks the boot.

Dad drives the car away, leaving a pile of rising dust behind him. (okay i exaggerated the pile of dust portion)

Picture the after effect.

Kid frantically calls mum on handphone.

Realizes basement carpark has no reception.

Runs all the way up the the first floor and calls mum again.

Mum's phone is switched off. Battery must have gone flat.

Parents have yet to realize kid is not in the car with them.

Parents drive all the way to the market to eat. They get out of car, and finally realize kid is missing.

End of story.

Fantastic eh? Fantastic.

30th September 2008

Alright, so i guess we're going to the zooo/zouk place for the UB bash. I wonder what our duties will be when we get there. Pretty happy though haha, since we get a discount for the sweatshirt since we're in the council. Cool =) Buy more. HAHA no lar...

We'll be working very hard for the council too... SIGH...

Anyway Jane bought our masks for us!!

In addition to showing me the masks, she wanted to show her very ultra cool webcam... *turns green with envy*

Here's what she did on the webcam!!









And the ultimate...

Bored

Okay for those in UB who might happen to miss us in Singapore... -.- haha





Hee

F1 in Singapore 2008

so i went to watch the F1. And i'm too lazy to let you on about the experience, so i'll let the pictures entertain you. Gotta study anyway... It was extremely deafening by the way. And oh yeah, i didn't actually have tickets to watch it at the grand stand. We sneaked to dad's office to watch it.

The beautiful view...

The Race Track (it might be blur cause i had to zoom in from the 28th floor)

Another picture of the track... Oh and that little blur you see in the middle of the picture is the leading car at that point of time. Ferrari if i remember correctly...

Yeah okay, dad snapped a picture of mum and me. We were quite annoyed cause we wanted to watch the race... So i put it up here to prove i was there hahaa

This one too. See? It was so loud that the man (a volunteer) had to stuff earphones into his ears)

There, some videos for you to enjoy. =)





You won't believe what i had to climb and stand on just to take this video. Sorry i had to zoom in during the video itself. I didn't want to miss anything so i quickly started the recording.



Oh for the last video, the racers are slowing down cause it's the end already; thus, the applause and stuff. =)

28th September 2008

Update on the cruellas who live beside me! (Note to those who do not know, the Cruellas are my neighbors who hate my dog.)

Anyway, about a month back, they got themselves a dog. HA! Such a joke. They hate dogs so much, they poured hot water through our shared balcony at my darling Pebbles. Then they get a dog of their own. NONSENSE.

For about two weeks, they've been verbally abusing their own puppy. THey constantly scream at it whenever it howls. Mind you, it's a pitiful howl. What do you expect? It's a PUPPY in a NEW ENRIVONRMENT. Give it some love man!

Well after those two weeks, i never heard a sound from the puppy again. Just today, we bumped into our neighbors. Guess what we found out? It seems tat they're sueing the pet shop where they got that puppy from. WHY? Cause their puppy died. -_- It was 3 months old, and it died within two weeks the moment it went to their home.

SEE???

And she has actually had the nerve to ask if i wanted her doggie food and whitening chemicals to keep the fur coat of the dog white. CRAZY. I think that's what killed her puppy. HELLO, 3 months old puppy. CANNOT EAT DRY WHOLE FOOD. It has to drink milk. THEN you pound the pellets and mix it with the milk. ZZZZ. And at such a young age, isn't it dangerous to bathe your tiny frightened puppy in whitening chemicals??

That woman is insane i tell you. Poor puppy. She cannot have a dog. She shouldn't have a dog. I know this is what, critical thinking, "moral obligation" or something. BUT STILL. She does weird things and then she sues everyone. Did i mention that she raised hell at AVA about my Pebbles, saying that pebbles is abused because she keeps barking at her? IT IS BECAUSE YOU THREW HOT WATER AT MY DOG DUMB DUMB.

okay fed up. Right nevermind. I'm done with my ranting and comments. ZzzzZZZzzz

Fire Drill September 2008

ZZZ PANT PANT PANNNNTT

So you get the idea.

I'm back from my excursion... I fought the fire bravely, with a mini extinguisher, which was SUPERBLY heavy by the way. I was given a fireman's hat by one of the Malay fireman. Heee souvenir.

And yeah i was cheapskate. I walked round to EVERY block on my estate to get free drinks... hahahah cause they had a box of packet drinks at every lobby.

AND OMG the fire alarm is ONE KIND OF PIERCING. Both pebbles and i hid in the bomb shelter.

"MAY DAY MAY DAY!!"

And there was SMOKE can... CHOKE. ZZZZ not fire smoke, BBQ SMOKE! People were bbq-ing during a fire drill!!!!

NONSENSE. haha but yep that was my experience. Anyone needs any questions answered about evacuation plans? I have them all! hahahaa

alright that's it. Off to dinner! Finally get to use the lift.

ps: I died around 14th floor. I couldn't walk up the rest of the flights of stairs. SO i cheated. I waited for the lift to start then i rode it back up to my floor.
