NuhC has been a sick boy.
I've been sick for the past few days. There's this major sore down my throat and after seeing my doctor, he said it's a viral infection. Was given antiobiotics and some other stuff. That explains for my sian-ness through-out the days. Haiz, Audrey and Wanzi just can't seem to be convinced that I'm looking sian all day because i'm sick. Instead, they are thinking that I'm troubled financially and other really really nasty stuff. I'M FINE!!!
Did my first yoga lesson yesterday, with Jessie and Ming Wei (Sammi!), the lady instructor didn't look really pro. In fact, I think she's using pretty wrong words. Sometimes when she says feel the stretch on your *watever muscle*, I'll feel that I'm flexing it, instead of stretching... I wonder why. I'm feeling the sore all over now, it's feel pretty good though.
Yuki's party later, don't know if I'll feel fit enough by evening to go. Think I've got conjunctivitis, don't care, I'll still go around and spread the germs.

School was bad today, there were two physics lessons. One pratical and one night lecture. I'm still having lots of difficulty understand the stuff, the two respective ppl studying in NTU and NUS engineering, HELPP!!! (At least, cyn can help me for most of the stuff...)
Something worth mentioning is that during the 3 hour break at noon, cyn and i headed to TTSH to collect my cheque and settle some bank account thingy. TTSH has a massive underground level and looks like a big fat maze. My goodness, and you'll see food warmers (metal hot "fridges") marching up and down the corridors by themselves. Anyway, back to the cheque thingy, I made it just on time when this lady from the branch came out to pick up all the cheques deposited. So I'll be rich tomorrow! Sort off only lah, gotta pay off the money I owe mum, and the money I need to set aside.
During night lecture, I got really tired and sleepy and I started rubbing my eyes. Terrible siah, the lens on my left eye came out. I tried to wash it and putting it back, but it fell out immediately. Aww man, this time, it totally disappeared. Charlene found it on the railing of the lecture table, damn, it was so dirty. But stupid me, picked it up, attemptted to wash it clean clean and put it back. Once the lens hit my eye, my eye was screaming with pain. Ouch! it's dirty! I managed to survive till the lecture end. Cyn made me take out the lens and throw it away. So I was only left with my vision on one eye. Dearie Cynthia was so nice, she accompanied me home siah. She was worried that I couldn't find my way home. So sweet... Thanks a million dear...

It's official, Cynthia Fong Si Jie and I are really together. Too bad to the guys out there, she's mine, all mine, my precious. Sorry about not informing the world earlier, we didn't know how to tell everyone. But ya, we are happy together and we wish to get blessings from everyone. People who want to give cynical remarks should just fuck off!
Just me and my darling...
Continued...
On the first day of school, it was orientation. Everyone was new to the environment, I joined Edwin and Jessie, forming a really noisy trio. We all introduced ourselves to everyone else we can identify as our course mate. I introduced myself to a girl called Cynthia but all I got was "Oei, how many times you want to intro yourself to me and how many times you want me to re-intro myself?". Well, I think I've forgotten that I've actually introduced myself to her. That's the first contact with Cynthia (that I can remember). She caught me as a confident, loud and cheerful girl. "Wow, why do I keep finding myself looking at her?". Orientation day ended and we moved on to school proper.
School was good, I continued hanging out with Ed and Jessie, slowly Audrey Charlene Jie Xin Stevyn Sammi Sharon Qinhui Clare started joining us in forming a major clique. But Cynthia, Wanzi and MingFei sort of sat away from us after the first lecture, I wonder what happened. There's one question that I always tend to ask: "Where's Cynthia? I thought she and her gang is supposed to join (to sit) with us?" Edwin will always go, "Haha! you and your cynthia...." Slowly I recalled about the picture card theory I saw on Discovery, and I was pretty sure Cynthia is my picture card.
We both started talking and chatting, and I think with the catalyzing effect of Edwin, we got close at an alarming rate. Stupid Edwin, announced to many people that Cynthia was my picture card. As the story goes on, we chat over the phone until late night (early morning) for 5 consecutive days. We're started hanging out together and the most wonderful thing happened when she agreed to go to Laiping's chalet/bbq with me. We finally had time together, alone. At the chalet, we isolated ourselves from the rest. We watched Lion King 2 and meanwhile Cynthia kept pestering me about who my picture card was, she claimed to be really interested to know who was the girl and that she could help. After alot alot alot of pestering, with both of us lying on the bed head to head, I told her "That girl is you".
*Do I hear "awww...." from the audience?*
more, in the blog entry...

School was pretty managable yesterday. Went over to North Point with Cyn to eat dinner with her. Marcus join us too. He's still all braced up after his OP, haiz... wonder why no one from office went down to visit him. All so heartless.
There wasn't any lessons in school today, however bloody prata man mentor arranged a library tour for us. Damn... I had to go all the way to town just for that dumb tour. I've got nothing to write about today.
BTW, NuhC is over the moon...

School's been busy... The third week has started and the time table is super packed and the days are really long. I did my first Conversational Malay elective module yesterday. It was really cool, and I thought it was fun. Figured that I already know quite a bit of malay words. It was quite refreshing to introduce someone in Malay.
Went to Laiping's chalet last night, Mich, TIng, Cheryl, Cheng Kang, Malik, and ping was there. Cynthia lived near the chalet and she could give me free entry into the chalet. I'm lucky Cyn was there with me, she kept me company all the way thru siah. The others were actually a clique from their school and I felt like I was intruding. Watched Lion King 2 and talked... Left early. The 21 trip home turned out to be not as long as I thought it would be.

I was out for dinner with Norlin just now. Had Subway and we shopped around for Norlin's new phone. BTW, she looked goooooood today.
On the MRT ride back, I've re-noticed the colour schemes of each of the underground stations, let's see...
Orchard : Maroon
Newton : Orange
Novena : Green
Toa Payoh: Yellow
I can't really remember the rest, do tag me about the other stations...

COllected my half year supply of contacts lense today. Yeah! I've finally gonna back my desired eyesight. The optician is located at Bras Basar, called Designer Eyewear. Apparently, my eyes' curvature is quite high, thus I'll need more uncommon lense, while the optician at Toa Payoh just offered me another problematic pair, the optician at Designer prescribed me with a perfect fitting pair.
The world's clearer now, and sadly, that means there ain't that many chio bus to see anymore. You see, if the world's unclear, you don't see that much of details and things will little flaws will look fine in the fuzzy world. You get the point...
Bought an AIO with mum at Funan later, CX5300, power siah... Later met up with Laiping and later Kok for kopi at Taka Coffee Bean. We managed to snatch a sofa seat. Sat there for an hour plus, till they closed, why they close so early? Headed to airport to recieve Michelle, she went Hong Kong, so envious... I wanna save lots and lots of money to travel at the end of the year. Hope it'll materialize.

Played football in school for about an hour. There's this 2 enclosed half tennis courts at a far far corner of NYP. The girls, namely, Jessie, Jie Xin, Charlene, Qinhui, Clare, sat around to watch us play. The guys and one gal who played were Ed, Ken, Fadzilla, Steve, Tom, me and Audrey. Hahaha, didn't see Audrey play though, I left early. Football's cool, but i suck at it, better stick to badminton and basketball. I arranged to travel with Cynthia, she making her way to her Sec School, girls girls, so passionate about their sec school. Tho I love Victoria, the dying Victorian Spirit is making me want to spit in the school compounds, so fuck it! Anyway, Cynthia was nice and accompanied me to eat dinner while I waited for Jov and Ian. Talked quite abit over dinner, and surpirse surprise, we saw the watch she bought a couple of days back being displayed at a stall in PS, she wanted to ask them for the price, which she expects to be higher, so that she can feel shiok that she bought it at a lower price, but I convince her that if it's cheaper, she'll feel like crap.
Cynthia left, and Jov and Ian appeared, we were going to watch the Shrek Double Bill on Fort Canning Green Starlight Cinema (again). I haven't watched both of the Shrek episodes, but I've heard lots of good reviews so I've decided to watch it. Both parts in one go! It was really hilarious and wahahahhaha, Pinochio and the girl's underwear lie, muahaha... Gingerbeard man was so damn cute also.

Here goes the blog entry.
Who the hell said the girl is from my class or course? Anyway it doesn't matter, I don't think i have the mood to talk about BGR. Things are too fucking messed up and I really need to catch up on my work. It's the first time in a long time I feel like that, and I think it'll be like that for sometime. Watched King Aurthur and Bourne Identity at PS and Starlight Cinema respectively, both with Clare. King Aurthur has always been my hero, wanted to be a knight when I was a kid. And the show was amazing. Bourne Identity at Fort Canning was good. The area was dark enough to show a movie and the sound turned out to be pretty good for the outdoors. Fort Canning Green is pretty breezy and cooling at night, shiok.

School was pretty interesting today, there was a 3 hour gaps between 2 lessons and we went to play badminton. Cynthia, Wanzhi, Audrey, Edwin, Kenneth, Johnny and I played. Oh man, Wanzhi is damn good, she kicked all of the guy's asses. Ouch! Edwin and I teamed up against Eric and what's his name from RT.
Later there was this boring boring boring Talk given by a lady from HPB. It was about AIDS and no one seem to be interested in what the speaker was trying to tell us. I dozed off, and felt my usually heavy nodding of the head in my sleep, Dowager and King were happily dicussing me. Later, when I woke up, King fell asleep and I continued talking to Dowager. Dowager has an amazing ability to stay awake throughout all kinds of boring lectures. Anyone got any tips on how to stay alive?
Oh ya, about the picture card theory, I think I've met someone who's hit my picture card.

Here's something I saw from discovery channel and i think it's really interesting and i wanna share it.
Deep in the brain of everyone. There are about 20 picture "cards" of faces. These twenty faces are formed by the time you turn 5 and the formation of such faces are though to be from your mother, your care takers. And when we grow up to adults and when we meet new people of the opposite sex (provided you're straight), you'll suddenly feel an instant attraction to one particular person... It's like *ting!*, *woah!*, *wow!*... That's because that person somehow matches one of your 20 picture "cards". And of course, if you grow to like the person and if you actually get with him/her, you'll super love him/her. Interesting huh?

Shit, my blog's becoming boring. I've been writing too much about my life and I'm not discussing interesting issues. So let's talk about lousy teachers. I'm sure everyone have had lousy teachers. They come in all shapes and sizes and they all how different "Made In *Country*" labels. Let me see, there was Mrs Kwok in VS, lousy physics teacher who keeps the boys' attention by where relatively revealing stuff. Then there's a whole list of lousy teachers in PJ, like Ms Lim, Lion Queen, Mr Lim. Lion Queen turned out to be a nice teacher but she couldn't teach for nuts. Mr Lim basically sucks and Ms Lim, haiz... bitch. Anyway point is, there's this irritating teacher in my course now. Why of course, it's the Radiation Physics man. He doesn't notice that he really has loads of time relocated to him and he chooses to put "No Commitment" on time tables. He assumes that most of us understand the "easy" stuff. And he talks with one tone for 2 freaking hours...!
Yup, I hate Radiation Physics and I'm looking at asking Laiping for help and Cynthia, the scholar, for help on the module. BTW, Cynthia's cute...
Posted by NuhC at 9:53 PM
Radiation physics sucks. I was looking thru the e-tutorials for radiation physics and I serious can't understand a thing. I really need to work hard siah. Anyone wants to help me? I desperately need the help.
Nothing much happened over the weekend. Met Clare on Sat to go stationery shopping and hopefully get some studying done. But however, we went on a wild goose chase thinking that Muji will have nice files and turned out that the fies at Muji weren't practical. I did get my half year's supply of contacts.
Sunday nothing happened. Met Laiping and Kok for dinner and coffee. Going school tmr and more radiation physics. Bleah!!!

School's good, but poor class mates who didn't do A level's bio, they were all damn blur about the DNA transcription, translation and *wat's the last process*. Lectures can get amazingly boring and you'll see CK nodding and Charlene reciting Tang poems. So damn cute. Haven't really shoot full steam into the course yet, radiation physics sucks. And the prata-man's getting on my nerves.
Today there was an event organized by the seniors for the juniors. There was a buffet "party" and we all took way too much food! Anyway, later there was a little games session organized by the seniors. Games were pretty crappy, and my team was all the boring girls. Haiz... After the games, there was a senior sell books to junior session. Quite easily got 2 books for myself at second hand rates.
I've discovered that Huiping, Roxy (Yan ni) and Sharon were from PLMGSS, no wonder Yanni felt familiar.
Finally, today, I took bus home today, CK, Charlene and Huiping took another bus, but as Charlene (sweetest mei mei) alighted, she turned and waited a tried damn hard to look out for me and waved! Her smile and her waving looked so sincere and sweet. Made my day...

School's getting better by the day! At least as the week progresses. Monday and Tuesday are the longest days and towards the end of the week, the days just get shorter. Time to go hang out with the classmates. The warming up with classmates are almost done, the whole clique of us are crazy, Edwin, Jessie, Jie Xin, Stevyn, Hayden, Kenneth, Ming Wei (Sammi!!! ming wei really looks like Sammi Cheng), Frances, Sharon, Charlene, Audrey and me go to lectures together and for the group 1A ppl, even the tuitorials. Today Tso Ren (Lindy!!!! remember him???) and Wan Zhi joined the group of crazy people. Woot!!! Today was my introductary lecture to socialogy. So fun! So interesting...
Anyone noticed and wondered why people must turn around after entering an elevator?
I'm beginning to like my course. That's a good start, Elizabeth and Eunice from PJC S03 are my course seniors. They say you don't fail so easily, hope so.
Ate Macdonalds with Laiping for dinner, damn! I feel cheated. I can eat Max at NYP for like $3.90!!! Next time you ppl wanna jio me out, if it's going to be macdonalds anywhere other than NYP, I'm not coming.
BTW, i wrote my name in yet one more CCA booth today. This time it's tennis, Audrey kept bugging Edwin and me to join with her. So ya, I've written my name in Community Service Club, Guitar Club, BB Primers and now... tennis!

Today was the first day of lessons at NYP. Had 3 lectures, 3 long lectures. The lecture delivered by Dr Bryan was good, but sadly, I've already learnt everything he taught today. It was a good revisiion though. Then there was radiation physics that I knew monkey nuts about, I didn't take physics back in school and now, I feel terribly screwed. Must find someone to mentor my physics, hope that somehow the good old lessons from Jennifer Kwok (VS Physics teacher) will be useful. I've decided to pick up Malay as my elective as Audrey jioed me to take and the elective that I was interested in was all snapped up, crazy kiasu people. Just hope that Malay will be easy to pass and that it'll be useful for my future work in TTSH. Oh ya, I'm officially SOLD! to TTSH, just finished the last bit of signing for my bond. :)

First day of school as a student in NYP, School of Health Science.
The day started off pretty badly as I couldn't get into any deep sleep at all. Got off bed late and met up with Jingkun late. Ate Macs at NYP, cheap... The orientation was a total mess, first we had to sit on the ground, with was something I totally hated doing. And we had to wait and wait, the talks were crazily long andthey had to include some funny "Entertainment" programs for us. Anyway I do thank the seniors for the effort, but ya, it would've been better without those programs. Got to know the coursemates during lunch, and the meet the mentor session. There are about 70 plus Diagnostic Radiology students this year, it's really alot alot compared to past years. There was also this freshman game that was a combination of Amazing Race and Treasure Hunt. Organisation was a piece of shit and the organisor reminded me of some guy from JC. Anyway, while playing and not playing the games, I got to know more coursemates. Let me try and name the people i remember. Edwin, Jessie, Steve, Hayden, Kenneth, Audrey (Eileen Lim!!! Your friend!!!!!), Charlene (she's damn adorable), Cynthia (i actually re-intro myself to her many times, can't remember her for nuts), Li Ping, Ming Fei, Yvonne, Sharon, Johnny, Wan Zi, and many more i can't remember. Anyway my tutorial group has 4 guys and 16 girls! Shit, we're so going to be bullied...

Back from the International Buffet at Goodwood Park Hotel. Was there with Jun Yuen, Qinli and ZB. The food was good and the service was excellent. What I especially like were the desserts. The tiramisu cake and the tarts and the cream dunno wat were excellent. Of course the seafood with fresh and delicious! Crayfish were like soooo sweet and tasty. Anyway, we kept going "Wow!" in between conversations cos of this gourgeous lady. Aww man... Every time she passes our table we just uncontrolably go go "Wow!". Jun Yuen was the first to surrender just now, I was so surprised. But ya, we all ate until our heart's content.
After that, we headed down to Far East Square (or is it Centre, not Plaza) to play pool. Qinli and Jun yuen couldn't play very well, but ZB and I gave guidance to them along the way. Jun Yuen noticed this girl on a snooker table a few tables away. She was wearing a white halter and levis hipsters, fair skined, tall and not skinny. She had the perfect V-shaped curved hips, woooooooo..... and her hair was waist length, rebonded but did not do treatment. Anyway, she has a very pretty smile and has dimples, Jun Yuen was saying some stuff that couldn't be posted on the blog, but ya, basically, she's cute. Norlin joined us and play a game. Later I discovered that Jun Yuen and Qinli have a new hang out... Hmm...
