김치 볶음밥!

LOL, i just realised all the photos i've recently updated with my posts are all in grayscale. EMO. I like that style. hehe..

I know it's late. I'm tired too, but not tired enough to get me away from the computer and be snuggly buried under the blankets. Haha, so yea, I'm here to be blogging. Actually I have nothing much to talk about today really. I'm merely here to satisfy the desire to type. so, er, yea.

I went out with the girls today. Nothing much, except for the part when I went with liang to check out the korean level at novena. WOW, you know I was soooooo happy! especially when it came to the korean rice cake house! I mean, you can get the goods at the korean marts of course, but to have a rice cake house feels like "home" ( in this i mean being in korea). Wheee, and you know, the ddeok bokki, is soooo much cheaper than dong dae mun at taka? the same price, vast difference in servings! Yea, so you could kinda guess, I bought ddeok and their homemade KIMCHI. aw, heavenly. It tastes very much better than the one i got from sol mart the last time!

Being so tempted by the fresh looking kimchi, I decided to make kimchi fried rice. Man, I love it. Hehe, I made mine with japanese rice grains and hotdog, due to limited resources, but you can just do it with normal rice cause koreans don't eat those japanese grains. (: haha, lucky friends, some day i might just cook for you guys! So...mayb you should just ask me? Keke.

Hmm, you should have realised that the headings have all changed from french to korean. I resolved that since i'm a korean student, I should be like one, haha, so yea, i made everything in korean. Ask me if you don't understand. (:

My dear friend seungho is missing for 3 days. I hope he didn't join the riot. Lawyers should be smarter?

I need to fully utilise my organiser. I've gotta do something.

ok, 안녕, I should stop my rubbish already. I think I'll be back to update after drama on friday.

reality.

Minho's pose is a perfect reflection of what I am feeling. Sigh, the story goes. I sent out like over 10 copies of my resumes to various firms and agencies yesterday. The last time I tried that after the Os, none of them got back to me. But this time, it was different, this morning i received 2 calls from 2 different agencies. As I had agreed on the interview for the first one, I couldn't work for the second company cause their work starts today.

Okay, so I was scheduled an interview. I read the email the agent sent me and roughly glimpsed through the long list of jobscope. You can't imagine how excited i was. I mean, it's the first time in my life going for a work interview, and you know, it's like WOW, you're going out there already.

But I guess I just wasn't ready for reality. When I reached the office, I had to fill in the form and wait for the manager who was late. And guess what, when she walked in, I forgot that I should be standing up. When I remembered, it was just late by a second. Next, she started asking me if I know what job I was applying for. I stoned for a sec, I mean when i applied, I just saw that it was admin, sounded fun, and so yea, try my luck. When the agent sent me the mail, I only BROWSED through the jobscope. So I answered her with whatever I could recall. Ah, not so bad. Next. Do you know what our company is about? Boy, I heard thunder and saw lightning. Of all the things I did, I forgot to read up about the company! Man, so the manager had to blabber about the company. And I felt so bad about myself, i mean my resume/ application is a reflection of my years of education, and I think I just portrayed a bad image or RV and NJ. Imagine being so done for at a MNC. Yes, you saw it correctly, it's an MNC! *faints* It wasn't like a tom dick or harry company that I messed up! My first job interview, WOW.

The harsh reality of the outside world. I think I'm too nursed. Maybe this job was just not meant for me, however good the pay may be. But whatever it is, I think today, I just got K.O. Really, I've never felt worse. So in reality, Steph is not that confident all the time. The front on stage, when debating, its all acting. Why can't I do better at the interview? Like be more prepared? Then even if I fail, I won't feel as lousy as I feel now. I'm sorry to the agent, sorry to all my teachers. aish.

babies

I wanted to blog this last night, but as I was teling Jeremy, Starhub was letting me down, so I have to do it today, when my internet connection is finally regained. Hmm, so if you're wondering what I'm going to write about today, it's about my babies, the precious things that makes me happy. (:
My 2009 diary imported from korea! It FINALLY arrived in my mailbox yesterday. Phew, safe and sound.How can I forget, my acer aspire one? It's been with me through the darkest and most boring times. keke.TADA! From mummy and daddy, my new Fujifilm Instax mini 7s.

Okay, so that's not all my babies. I have too many babies to name. Wow, this is bad. Hahaha...
Rawr, when will A level results be out? Please let it be after CNY...gosh. I'll do well, I'll get my 5 As, I will get into NUS, I'll study law or medicine...*continues to blabber and confess*...

LOL, yunho is ranked top in "top 5 korean singers who look good in suit". I was telling James and Ruiliang yesterday that kkot boda namja is really nice! The SS501 leader, Kim hyung joon, who didn't look nice at all in my Junior Magazines, looks so gorgeous as Rui. Makes you wonder why eh? Watch it. You probably can only find until episode 2 which is english subbed on youtube. I successfully transferred the Nobody addiction to grace! Wahahahaha. Welcome to the club.

Ahh, I really want to get Driven by eternity! And I saw the interview Oprah did with the author of Pillars of the earth. But it being 900++ pages, I wonder if I would last. Books! <3

happy birthday <3

Happy belated birthday to self! I wanted to blog this last night but couldn't do it cause I had to turn in early so that I can wake up for today's service. But it's okay, never too late to do it now. So, haha, yea, happy birthday to me! No worries, this post will be totally understandable, purely english, no korean cause i'm on my acer. (:

Time really flies, I'm at the end of my 1-s, next year, i'd be in my 20s! *screams* I think this year, my birthday felt very much different from the last. I remembered the anxiety of turning 18, about having to grow older, more matured, and take on more responsibilities as in individual. Yet turning 19 was a rather pleasant experience for me. I haven't been this happy for pretty long, and i know, 2009 is going to be awesome, I can just feel the excitement in my spirit. Perhaps this was what made my 19th birthday so happy. Although there was no boyfriend to whisper sweet nothings on the very special day, the 10th being on a saturday, couldn't have been more special. I got to spend my birthday at church, hearing a great and impactful word from Rev. John Bevere that challenged my perception, and celebrating my birthday with my dearest n284. What more could I ask for? It was a chance to set 2009 right with God and foster deeper relationships with my members! (:

A BIG thanks to everyone who remembered my birthday! Thank you n284, happy birthday to Eileen, thank you kexin, nicholas ( my jie mei! i'm amazed you rmbed my birthday!), nikki (you forgot my polvoron, but i still love you..haha), faith (i'll remember the hug!), collin, james and ruiliang (I'll remember you guys singing in korean for me), james again (for signing such a long and meaningful message on my card), peixuan (loves), meitong (for always believing in me and carrying my vision with you always), grace, jieying (i love the necklace and card you'd sent to me!), shihui, sijia, puqin and everyone who has written on my wall. You don't know how much your "Happy Birthday"s mean to me. To those who have forgotten, including my dearest friend wang jia nai! tsk tsk tsk... I'll forgive you! hahaha..Not forgetting, to thank God for creating me and papa mama for bringing me to this world!

I went to get my birthday present today. My parents sponsored me to buy a Fujifilm Instax Mini. Wheeee, I finally have a polaroid! ((: But the film is like really expensive, so if you're thinking of what to get me for my birthday, I'll suggest that you can buy me Fujifillm Instax Mini film. (: keke

Ah, so tomorrow, the cg is going out to celebrate the jan babies birthday! I'll be back with the photos. I love you guys man..<3

Rawr, to go now. I want to sleep soon. YAWN.

bored.

Hmm, I'm really bored.

Now, I'm officially no longer a student until university begins, transportation has become really expensive due to adult fare charges. So, I'm trying to cut my expenses, by travelling less and if I really have to, I will try to do as many things as possible so as to make it worth travelling there. Rawr, if in the eyes of the law, 19 does not make you an adult, why the contradiction in charging us adult fare? At 19, why must we be burdened by the fare charges? 아이씨...

Time really flies and 2009 has creeped here! Wow, if you ask me, 2008 happened so quickly, I think i regretted letting the entire year pass like that. I hadn't done much nor fulfilled much of the goals i've set in 2008. So this year, I think I really gotta sit down to think about what I want to do this year, and really DO IT. 2009 화이팅!

My microsoft office is not working! And I can't seem to find my installation cd. Please kill me.

Many things running through my mind.

And I'm so mad at myself. I want to do things better, with greater excellence. i wasted one day. crap.
