ARGH!!!
I don't know whether to feel happy or nervous... I only left with two more lessons before my first grading. I want to train everyday from today on. Need someone to kick my ass off the bed every morning when I switch off my alarm.
Grading is on 8th April. Meanwhile I am still stiff and using too much force. I need a big mirror to train. Or else how would I know if I have executed the patterns "gracefully"/ properly?
OH! Imagine the horror yesterday night when I opened the attachment in my email! I saved the html of my old blogskin and sent it as an attachment to my own email. When I opened it from my email, instead of html codes, it was the old page itself! So apparently there are some stuff that I would have like to transfer to my new blog that is going to dissapear!!! Curses!

Hello!
How's the new blog skin? Yeps, I decided to change my sponge bob blogskin since it is quite old and also because the box is too small to see the whole you-tube window. Haha. I was quite put off when I couldn't see the 'One Word' video from my blog and have to double-click to get another window.
Anyway, now I am still figuring out how I can make my picture under my profile smaller so i can fit it nicely without having it jutting out. Apprently I forgot the website whereby they will match colours with the html code so nowI am relying heavily on my memory for those html codes. So please bear with the orange and white...
Oh yes, I was initially considering this blogskin versus another one with green boarders on a white background. I tried out the green one but the html wasn't working out properly so in the end I used this orange one instead. I was thinking that a green and white page won't be too hurting on the eyes but too bad...
There are still certain things I would like to add to my blog... but I'm still considering whether it is necessary.
Oh yes... under 'Hangouts' There is a link called ScriptoPaedic( http://scriptopaedic.blogspot.com )It is some story along the lines of common korean dramas/ taiwanese idol dramas/ typical drams (or whatever you call them) that I am working on. Well, writing that story is like some sort of entertainment and helps to kill time in the office without having me looking like a downright slacker. Please do have a look and leave a comment. Even though I am not a professional writer, I hope that ScriptopPaedic would have a higher readership!

I think recently I must have become obsessed with Lee Jun Ki. All thanks to Yu Ting's VCD! Well, I cannot deny that I already liked Lee Jun Ki when I first saw him on a magazine... now I am think I am obsessed after watching "My Girl". Lee was only a supporting actor in this show but I think apart from his dashing looks, his acting is more than good. He can act especially well for sad scenes: he doesn't even need to cry. The sadness just disperse out from the television screen. His eyes will be swollen and red but he is still not crying yet. Awsome.
I just found a video on youtube. It is called "One Word" by Lee Jun Ki. The song is a sad one. Feel this little nudging sadness after listening. Sigh... why must Lee Jun Ki mesmerise me like that? Someone save me out from this!

My work station is located such that I am surrounded by doors. People I work with are busy and blocked away by these doors, so i am glad to have a radio and msn as company. So I have been listening to many songs especially on 987fm. And I realise thatthere are some nice off-chart/ on-chart songs which I don't have in my computer. Shall just put their title here in this blog as reference next time.
No Promises- Shayne Wade
Where'd you Go- Fort Minor
Goodbye My Lover- James Blunt
Fergilicious- BEP
If I find out more, I will add.

So yeps... 9th March came and went. I dislike 9th march. Hence I dislike my birthday. Yes, probably there are some friends out there who understands that I dislike my birthday and they tried really hard to change my mindset. Thanks for the effort but this mindset of mine is not easy to change. Because I appreciate your effort so this year, I tried to go with the flow of my friend's plans to make my birthday less dislikeable.
Throughout the day and even before it, I told myself that I will enjoy 9th March and I will keep away thoughts of dislike for that day. I even went to take leave from work and made a plan to cheer myself up and distract myself from thinking that it is a miserable day. Alright, I have to agree that taking a day off from the monotony of work and meeting people I miss is comforting but the day just didnt work out too well... towards the end.
0900
Met Cynthia at Macs to have breakfast and chat. Oh yeah and she sang a birthday song for me at Macs... what an honour to have choir ex-president to sing in public for me! She gave me a cute snow-globe with a cat in a tub inside it. It is now a lovely decoration on my table at home.
1030
Left for Brandt Asia to visit my ex-colleages. Glad to see my two supervisors and Carol, "Uncle" Herman, Sam, TiongLin and the rest. There are 3 new additions to the company. Lilah commented that I looked like Bing. Gosh... Bing was the hot sexy babe who worked at Brandt last time.
1200
Watched Carol eat lunch while she treated me to Barley water. Carol said she doesn't think that I looked like Bing. I would really like to see Bing's photo! didn't get to really sit and talk with Veron. And Jenny was lunching at another shift.
1315
Left for Vivocity to wait there for Hazel. Waited for super long... but it is not surprising to wait for an Odacian from my batch. Walked around and bought some stuff.
1545
Hazel needs to go for an interview and I went to Newton to look for Mrs Tan. She looked genuinely pleased to see me. We had a chat about random things and when Iw as about to leave, she even gave me a slice of cake to take home.
1730
Went to Poh's house and she prepared steamboat for me! She bought many yummy stuff for the steamboat. So Poh, Dong and me ate dinner together. Later dad came to fetch me home.
1945
Reached home, slack around and wait for the ODACians who are supposed to be here at 1915 apparently.
2115
3 ODACians came and they bought me a rectangular fruit cake. I thought a lot of people were coming to my house that night. I can't lie and say I did not feel cheated or disappointed. But still, 3 is crowd. Myra, Cheeyong, Chingyi, they tried to light a birthday cake at the stairs but apparently I heard their commotion. They sang the Birthday song for me. I hope my neighbours are not disturbed haha. Myra had to leave shortly after. Then dad and mom went to pick Nik from guitar class and we played a few card games. Since it was late already, Cheeyong escorted chingyi to the busstop and so ends it. Oh yeah, they have gotten me a mug as a present. I needed a mug a few months ago as my dad insits that I get rid of the old one... and now I have it.

My parents came back with a cake. It was a delicious cake- Belgium Chocolate and wine flavour.
I had a surprise celebration on 10th March. Yuting and I went to Weng's house after we visited NUS open house. I had suspected something was going but I didn't expect them to get a cake for me. The two of them said they had somethign to do outside the room... and I was packing my things. I sincerely thought they had something to do... Little did I know they came in with a cake. There goes the birthday song for the forth time. It was a peanut-buttery cake from Rive Gauche, though Weng claimed that it is Caramel cake. Then they gave me their presents which are really REALLY THOUGHTFUL. Yuting gave me a scrap book with our pictures while Weng bought me a nice silver-grey wallet (which reminds me of her prom dress) and she made a big felt cube with my name on it. I love the hand-made presents very much! As much as I would like to have the rest of the "usuals" to come and have fun, I really had a great time at Weng's house.
I received a Rive Gauche cheese cake 2 days before my birthday from WeiSheng. It was really nice of him to send it to my house after work. I will create an entry with pictures of these cakes I received soon.
Sounded like I had a great time, apart from waiting for people (notice that they are from the same group?) but that is not really the big issue. It seems like the irritating thing has to happen during my birthday. It happened last year and I was on the verge of tears while singing my own birthday song loudly enough to try to divert my thoughts. This year it happened again on my birthday but at least I only get to know about it a few days later. Totally dislike.
I really appreciated it that so many of my friends remembered my birthday and even went to the extent of wanting to celebrate for me. Even though, it didn't take 9th march off from my "dislike" list, I feel really glad that you people remembered this supposedly special day.
