alright.
late for company law class this morning. still can stroll to class with serenen ang haha
then had twc meeting.
seriously, twc is a waste of everyone's time. but i must say the prof is nice. so is teh TA. don't know if tehy will still be nice for next week's presentation. hmm. and everyone in my twc is DTT - dying to talk.

and yes, there is seriously sth wrong with teh sch network. excuse me - we pay sch fees but we can't log onto msn? xi wen was saying the sch is trying to ban msn. hh sen t a mail to CIT and CIT replied saying they will ' check it out'. in hh words: incoming students - outgoing students = 800 --> congested interent network. grrr. excuse me, but all of us pay sch fees! and why are there only bins outside gsrs in sob but not in other buildings

twc. grr. every week, my weekend starts with the end of wed. the end of twc. whooppee. weekend is here!

and yes, i overslept on the bus for the third time today on my way home. there is somethign wrong with me. i had to walk back home in the rain :( plus i had 2 iced coffees today. not a good sign.

Tuesday, August 29, 2006

alright. everyone has their own things to do. things are heating up in sch right now. wed is the start of my hectic week. and thurs, it will be over. and then 2 weeks of sch would have gone by and 13 more weeks to go. i sure m looking forward to thurs evening.

to mich: pls take care of urself. believe u r more independent than i m. pls don't miss us, tho we will sorely miss u. will think of u during our public takl as well.

to dee: long time no see. lucky u din grow fatter :) study hard

to jiayi: long time no see too. jiayou for all ur commitments. and remember to be resilient with THAT fren. u can pass ur promos. :)

to sel: sleep well. take care. have fun :) both of us have tons of work to do

ime to study hard, do my twc projects, and try to work out my life. been too slack for too long.
i m going to embark on my 1st project meeting of my 2nd year - TWC. my presentation is next wed! eeeeks! anyway below is what my twc project is gonna be:

what is required for our TWC presentation. Please see below :)
  • Scientific principles associated with the technology
  • Explain how this technology works
  • Identify the series of scientific discoveries that led to development of this technology
  • Competing contemporaneous development effort and any displaced technologies
  • Insightful comments from detailed research, not just copying contents of established website

Presentation is to be 15 min long and will be marked using the following criteria:

  1. amt of excitement generated in class
  2. Mechaism behind the technology investigated
  3. Clarity in comparing evolution of chosen technology
    contrasting that partivular technology with competing technologies
  4. amount of thoughtfulness (with special relevance to the class or new business ideas) the group has put into this presentation

later having dinner with mich, sel, dee and mb hwee and jiayi. mich is leaving for vietnam (i think)

and tmr is a long long day. morning coy law haven't read up yet. and then twc. argh. actually, that jared diamond's story book look alike is actually quite interesting to read. hopefully i can finish chapters 4 to 9 before tmr's afternoon lesson. income tax and finance - haven't do finance homework yet! eeeeeekkkkks!

back to stress mode over sch work. but now, there are more responsibilities to shoulder.

and yes, i promised my brother to blog abt all hte good food he has been whipping up for me. haha on sunday, he cooked this really nice cheese omelette. and he was really generous to share with me :) and he only cooks eggs - fried, scrambled, omelette :)

of yes. and last night heard my first song from jay chou's new album, courtesy of mr yeo. this song was with fei yu qing. why does jay chou like to do duets with guys now? and on my way o shc this morning, i heard jay chou's fantasy album. and my fav song is still jian dan ai. his older songs are still nicer.

reflections after giving out flyers at an unearthly hour on a monday, facing office ladies and gentlemen with monday blues, at a hectic place, where terrorists r likely to bomb aka raffles place

today, as i entered bishan mrt with a brown package of 2000 flyers, i was worried that the mrt personnel will demand to check my package haha. teh train was packed even at 710am! and i thot it will be sparse.

basically, there are a few kinds of ppl i met this morning as i stood outside teh mrt station. there are those nice ppl, who are carrying their bags, laptops, soya bean breakfast, they will still smile at you and receive your flyer. really makes u feel worth it to stand there and wish everyone passing by a good morning and a thank you, whether or not they take ur flyer.

then the other extreme kind of person is they don't even cknowledge your existence. look away. i was so worried, as they scurried down the stairs to avoid me, that they will trip and fall over their high heels. oh well. next time when i see ppl giving out flyers, i will take one. cos it is really not easy. and i will not crumple up and throw away in front of that person.

haha all in all, it was a good experience. haven't waken up at such an unearthly hour in such a long time. gg to zzz before reading my ais and goign for my afternoon ais class.

before i leave, my mum has been asking me to take up law in smu, cos smu is coming up with a law sch. and i tried to explain to her taht law isn't exactly my forte. think she meant it as a topic of discussion, but my reaction to her was really bad la. regret. but she is ok with it. her left side of her face is swollen now cos she apparently fell in the restaurant :( somehow my mum manages to keep upbeat despite such accidents and such spoilt daughter and son. i really salute her.

Sunday, August 27, 2006

tmr, monday, i have to be at raffles place mrt at 715am to give out flyers. hmm. i wonder how am i going to wake up and be there on time. somehow i will do it. so if u happen to be at raffles place mrt tmr morning, u may just see me!

and sun is a rest and relac day. i m having only my piano lesson. with each passing piano lesson comes a step closer to my piano exam. eeks!

and jay chou's new album is out. yay! i m gonna get it. any other takers?

and i have to get thank you cards. pls remind me.

anything else?

2nd week of sch is looming... my 1st presentation is on the 3rd week. but now with imf out, more time to ourselves!
today finally went down to sbm in a long long while. new faces - or m i the new one to them?
we had our meeting for our public talk. hope everything is going smooth smooth good good. had a good time with mich, sel, zhen lin, ryan melon, ernest, hwee, and so many ppl. it is nice to see how the organisation of the event is coming up. and to see how we can all be part of the event. we r not jus audience. we r ushers, postment, liason officers, logistics manager, AV i/c... so many so many things! and the last time i was involved in such events would probably be in council in jc. how fast time has passed us w/o mercy.

and yes, all of u who are reading my blog now are cordially invited to my public talk at da bei buddhist centre on 9 sept, sat. it is near lavender mrt and talk by our guest speaker monk is from 7pm to 9pm. details are available at the website below:

and yes, today lam and ah kow, whom i shd address politely as terence, were surprised to hear that our guest speaker monk was from malaysia, who came to sg and is now based in australia. haha. not only shaolin monks are monks ok? tehre are abt 3branches la. shaolin monks probably belong to the mahayana, which is prevalent in china. then there is theravada, which is mine, which is often in sri lanka, phillipines. and lastly, there is Vajrayana, which is the tibetian kind of buddhism. i hope i m getting my info right.

Saturday, August 26, 2006

i m now having a chocolate fondue cake from beard papa for breakfast. yum yum.

over the past 2 days, i have been meeting up with my frens. which is a good thing, before i get engulfed by all the upcoming sch work.

on mon, when i had stepped into sch for abt 2 hours, i could feel the hatred for the sch. haha. hatred is too strong a word. but it is the noun for hate. i hate the sch. so many ppl. think i need to be a hermit haha.

anyway, met pui san on thurs. whee. we went to catch a movie at the Cathay. The Cathay is pretty bare and sparse now. kinda like Shaw, where you can see all the escalators criss crossing. and to all tertiary students! from mon to thurs, produce your matriculation card at the Cathay and enjoy $1 off each ticket! plus you could get a lucky draw ticket for either a starbucks voucher or an adidas voucher. guess which we won? :D

then met wing lam and huiyi on friday. and when was the last time we went to seoul garden? we had so much so much fun.

before that, i was supposed to meet siu, sq and sj after their gym session. first i pang seh their gym session cos i refuse to get out of bed. then siu went home (think lack of slp) and sq went to prepare for his vivace. and i really really intended to buy muffins for all of u!!! grr!!!but i was late le :P and siu and sq were not ard anyway.

so while sq, ue and sj had finishing touches, i went to bras basah to collect my book - opening the doors of ur heart by ajahn brahm. FINALLY! WHEE!

after that, sj and i went to meet lam to go huisi's house for dinner. and yes. i still think the cheesecake was alright. food was good too. i ilke the dumplings :D and the fruit cocktails!

alright. sat is a long day. not exactly busy

anyone want to give my dear cousin melissa jc2 chem tuition?

Friday, August 25, 2006

it has been a week since 18 august. since we watched the madam white snake play.
had 2 full days of lessons yesterday and today.
first was company law. like i have mentioned so many times, law is not exactly my fav subj.

moving on to twc. once again, another subj we could do without.

then i fell asleep on the bus and overslept and missed my stop. and this bus, once i miss the stop, i have to cross over, stop at teh bus stop nearest to my house, which is still pretty far away and lug my heavy bag and laptop home. argh. reahed home after 8pm.

this morning was income tax. prof is super alert. caught me typing away and not paying attention. ask me to answer questions. argh.

finance was oh-so-boring. but second half was so much better. and i think it would help me to get my biological clock back to normal so taht i wont feel so sleepy in class.

and Vivace ie our cca feste is tmr. and i m so going to boycott vivace. why?
cos some ppl jus can't work w/o paperwork, normal procedures. they are like machines who act based on instructions. argh.

heck with creative thinking, flexibility.

Wednesday, August 23, 2006

today was a tiring day.
Haven't had a full day of school in 4 months.
had company law in the morning. many vacancies. nice prof. but law is BORING. cos i don't use my grey matter to think. i believe law is such a dynamic subject, it is probably like gp where u have to structure and argue ur way out, like bashing ur way thru a plot of grassland.

then had lunch. wandered ard sch. so many ppl. guitar club was playing at lunchtime at killiney. went to verts before settling down at sob to wait for my twc class.

twc class was a waste of time. but i think it is an interesting subject. my first presentation is on week 3! that is so soon!

tmr is income tax and finance. busy busy semester.
thank Buddha I m not a LAWyer.....

Tuesday, August 22, 2006

tusedays no school
22 august. good date. in exactly 1 month's time, i am having my piano exams. in between, there is probably IMF from 11 to 20 sept and mb terry fox run, if siu wants to WALK 5km with me. and there are the 2 all-important public talks on 9 and 10 sept. busy september!!!

attributes of useful info
- relevance
- timeliness
-

sounds like MA/FA. FIFO, DIDO, AIAO? haha
AIS
21 August 2006 Monday

Why are CPA firms reluctant to audit charities?

auditors are not there to check that charites are run properly, that charities do not install golden toilets.
if the golden toilet bowl is installed, then it must be stated clearly in the financial reports. that is what auditors do.
so CPA firms are reluctant to audit charities because in the past, charities have not set aside money to set up auditing services previously. this the quality of information available to auditors would be less than satisfactory. both parties would have to settle based on trust.

hmmm. is this what AIS is abt?
AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!
here is a shout out to everyone haha.
:P
good day my mates

Sunday, August 20, 2006

alright.
grade 6 piano exam on 22 sept 2006 (friday) at 12.23pm at cristofori at toa payoh hdb hub.

went for piano lesson. my piano teacher is really nice and funny. her things have been going missing. and she attributes it to "those things" aka ghosts. then she recounted more ghost stories to me haha. her favourite past time.
good morning everybody. i m awake at 4am in the morning. again. prob the 3rd or 4th time this week. i do not know why as well. prob cos the weather is too hot. or i have been dreading the start of sch. the 4 months summer hols were too good.

just talked to big ryan - before i fell asleep at 145 that is. we may not be able to give out the 200 goodie bags we spent 1 afternoon painstakingly packed. Buddha bless us that we may still stand a chance. Everyone is pretty psyched up abt Vivace. However, in the event we can't get permission to be mobile Santa Clauses giving out goodie bags, we shd not despair. probably give out our goodie bags to new, interested ppl during our own sessions.

also, perhaps due to the high influx of emails, esp regarding IMF, many ppl have not replied my emails, e.g. email to seek a sch email address. how m i supposed to send emails then? i can't give out goodie bags, i can't give out flyers, i can't send emailers - what CAN i do?

I must say it is not easy being a pioneer. not easy starting a religious grp as well, especially in secular singapore. but i m really glad to have my trusted frens with me all the way thus far - for finding out the proper procedures, designing logo, flyers, providing manual labour, talking nonsense, waking up early with me to visit the sch authorities, taking initiative to meet authority and email them. so much so much stuff. we have come so far, let's keep it going. almost there :)

purpose of this email was not to complain abt the difficulties of setting up our club. but to pass time while i can't sleep.so don't take this too seriously - i could jolly well be sleep-blogging.

Saturday, August 19, 2006


we were all in yellow, and the elderly are queueing up to burn the papers.

and i forgot to mention earlier that i saw a really really huge turtle swimming. probably the size of a man's chest. i named it crush. shall visit crush someday again.

Friday
went to Kusu Island with a group of elderly folks. It si part of a communitty service requirement from the ppl who sponsored our shanghai trip. i only had 1.5 hrs of slp the night before, hence i was sleeping on the bus, on the ferry and as and when possible. the weather recently has been so hot that i have moved to sleeping in my living room.

think the elderly enjoyed visiting the dua pei gong temple on kusu island. have some pics up there. they bought the joss sticks and set about doing hteir own things, offering joss sticks, burning the papers. then we took a seat under the trees and talked.

must say that the ferry service was really long. we took the ferry from sentosa. i used to take penguin ferry from the quay near raffles place. thank goodness i din get sea sick.

then we came back to sentosa and had lunch. we had prepared fried rice for the elderly, while we had to buy our own burger king. i m getting sick of burger king. so no more burger king for me till my appetite for it regains pls.

walked ard. some of the elderly went to the orchid garden while the others were too tired and sat under a pavillion. i was playing baseball will nicole haha. silly girl. really nice to meet up with all my shanghai mates again :)

and yes see the pic of siu interviewing kc?
dunno what they were roleplaying also. think a reporter was interviewing a big-bellied businessman who sells bags haha.

siu, thanks for helping me buy the company law book and lugging 2 big fat thick books to ur house and lugging one back to sch on monday. i realy owe u lots lots man.

school is gonna reopen soon. and i don't want that to happen. and things often happen when least expected. so when sch reopens, we will probably have to divert 110% of our energy and attention back to 3 hours seminars, gsr, projects, presentations, friends. i procrastinate too much.

Thursday, August 17, 2006

went to smu admin this morning to talk abt our smubs logo. needs some alteration. which i will have to depend on some of my trusted aides :)

then had breakfast with kc. we talked abt many things. and kc, thanks for talking and sharing. haha and thanks for ordering coffee for me! :P i hope ur bags business wil take off.

then siu, parlin and fenny came. thanks gals for comign down to guang ming shan too. i believe we had a fun time, amidst all the books and goodie bags we pack. i will try my best to get all the go-aheads. even though many things are still unconfirmed. i really appreciate ur efforts :)

came home and sent out another spate of emails. i m starting to spam a little too much.

sch is starting. and i m still apprehensive. to put it in sq's words, i m prob afraid of changes to my curently bumming ard lifestyle. heck.

studies. less play. less time to waste. more time to put our brains to better use.

Wednesday, August 16, 2006

Monday, August 14, 2006

alright. i prob have not blogged since wed, national day. i have more pictures to upload, but have yet to upload them yet.

thurs - dunno wat i did

fri
my parents, wing lam, meiyin, huiyi, siu and sj came to the conference hall at sch of accountancy at smu. wanna thank you guys for being present. many things could have happened e.g. me tripping over my court shoes. thank buddha it did not happen.

thanks to my 3 best frens for the 3 flowers.

went to visit joan after that. the church was just behind the smu admin block. went to sit in the church for a while.

then went for dinner at peach garden. after which went to teh scarlet hotel. comparable to cosy bay. puee, we r going to visit one of these soon.

sat
spent a whole day at a service training workshop, in preparation to be usher for IMF event, which is coming to SIngapore from the 11 to 20 sept 2006. it is a really huge, gigantic, enormous, BEEG, humongous event. u can read more abt the 4,000,000 smiles campaign in sg launched jus for the IMF/World Back Meeting here.

sun
went to watch the Phillip Cup with 2 of my good frens cum thomson club cum bball fans cum NBA TV viewers, Puee and Qt. the angmohs really play one class above the asians. not being biased here

uncle dell and zeze: grandma says that when u come back, she wanna throw a meal. so she is asking when u r coming back. haha. there is a reason why she wanna throw the meal ;)

Friday, August 11, 2006

somehow, i have not been able to upload any more pictures. I think my com has a virus. hmmm.
went to watch musical Broadway Beng last night with my jc frens aka Thomson Club. It was a funny musical, with all the hokkien songs. Sebastien Tan was funny. But it makes me wonder why do ppl pay to watch actors/ comedians make self-deprecatory remarks abt themselves. mb Singaporeans are not laughing at themselves enough?

As Victor said, plays which are successful in SIngapore usually are unable to break into the international arena. Most of these plays thrive on the Singlish/Ah-Bengish/Hokkien which makes it funny to SIngaporeans. INternational plays, like FOrbidden City, may turn ppl off rather than entice ppl to realy come and enjoy the show. BTW, Sebestian Tan can code switch pretty well.

Oh yes, and Thomson Club is back in business. The usual gang now hold titanium membership (haha). We are recruiting members now. and my mum is the honorary member so that we can make peach garden the official place of business haha. oh man. more ppl joining the bishan club! Whoppee!

Thursday, August 10, 2006





National Day, an event where tens of thousands of singaporeans dressed in red troops down yearly, under the bright hot scorching sun, trying to get the best seats right next to the grand stand.

For my mum, it is more abt supporting the country that has given her opportunities, supporting the ppl who have made this place safe for her and her family.

For me, it was the third consecutive national day parade i have been to, and i actually fell asleep during the performance. how can anyone fall asleep? i did.


this is a random picture i took with my dad when we went for our macdonald's dinner. my dad is not really anti-fast food btw. he used to bring my brother and i to burger king, pizza hut weekly.



we went to the night safari after the zoo. and if u see the horse carriage picture, I think the Zoo shd scrap this activity. Horseback riding is bad enough. these horses pulling carriages have blinds over their eyes. they can't see anywhere except right ahead. whether they feel the pain anot, i jus feel uncomfortable seeing the horses.











On the way to the zoo. we took bus 138 (i think) luckily it was not a long ride.

Tuesday, August 08, 2006

life really depends on whether u look on the good side or the back side.
will post zoo pics tmr

Monday, August 07, 2006

today sj told me i neglect publicity, that publicity is vital to our smubs. i must say i agree with him. tmr me, siu and kc are going to embark on our fantasies. don't wanna stress anyone. let's have fun while doing it.

dunno what to say or to think abt now. i m just putting it off. life is unpredictable. so cliched. so i shd stop procrastinating. but i still do. hmmm. if anyone is going to tell me that what i m going to say is cliched or outdated, i m so gonna slap u. pardon my language. think abt the ppl who die in wars. kamikaze. suicide bombers. sacrificing ur precious life for a so-called 'noble cause' which u can't live to see. everyone is born selfish. and the best motivation is for urself. pls. don't give up on hope just like that. treasure ur life and see the next sunrise.

Saturday, August 05, 2006

guess wat? today marks the first anniversary of my driving licence! Whee!
and guess how many times I have driven the car? probably less than 10.
today was recounting the only time when I took the car. when my mum allowed me to take the car. to drive my cousin and uncle Dell from USA and my uncle and auntie. parking was such an embarrassment. yet it was such a fun and unforgettable experience. Zeze, remember you getting off the car directing me which way to turn teh steering wheel. and Kipa was giving me contradictory advice. so Uncle Dell in the car told me to just do it my own way :)

today was a tiring day. Went down to SBM for the tuition scheme. ended up me and LJ sat in teh office blow aircon. haha. We talked abt random stuff, before goign to eat prawn noodles.

then went down to awareness place and meet siu and kc. We had a relaxing day out together. Remember: Monday 11am at killiney :) we are so going to have a fun time with our cameras and the bodhi tree!

we walked ard before goign down to sbm for the all impt sbm meeting with all captains and v-capt and exco regarding the public talk. yes our incentive is teh $800 worth of prizes for team bonding activities! Jiayou Sariputtians! If you don't know what I am talking abt, pls tag haha.

then went down to Heeren to meet my cousins. been a long time since I met them. haz is doing her N levels, mel is doign A Levels. my bro is doign o levels - i see ALL THE TIME. and shaun just returned from shanghai. think i haven't met them even before shanghai. when are we goign k-box? haha i wanna hear hazel sing :)

we had 5 slices of cakes from Spinelli. and Hazel told me last night the foo cousins are not gluttons. guess i proved you wrong haha. must say the Chocolate Rumble was DA BEST

alright. tired. time to bathe. and tmr will be another long day. go bai bai. then zoo. and night safari. tata.
i ran 6 km yesterday!

today i m gonna go to sbm, then go to awareness place at bras basah, then go back to sbm before meeting my beloved cousins.

time is passing too fast now. gotta slow down a bit. there is still much left to be done.

Friday, August 04, 2006

another new day. days are passing too fast. when we are studying, we wish for teh holds. now taht the hols are here, we(at least i) wish for the sch to start. irony of life.

sometimes i wish i was a boy. i know i always say it. i don't like to compare. i don't like chauvenists. probably i m a FCP - female chauvenist pig. but that is jus me.

and i miss the good old times. times are good now. but there are so many memories that i have been trying to relive this hols. nostalgia. yet we nvr learn to appreciate the times we have now. what is wrong with us man. only 20 years of existence and we are complaining. how abt the next 10 years, 20 years, 30 years? we are looking at relationships as forever, as a job that will lessen the burden on our family. we r looking for breakthroughs, yet there are shackles upon us. haha teenage angst? i have stopped being a teen 1 month and 3 days ago.

and i refuse to buy the tough way. i tell myself not to kick up a fuss but i end up not controlling myself.

and to my frens, i appreciate all the apreciation u have been showing me. i count my blessings in knowing u. and all the memories u have given me. it is not easy being who we are right now, right here. but i believe we have it a lot easier than the millions of similar age ppl out there. and yet there are prob thousands of similar age ppl who have it better than us. we can nvr finish comparisons. i suddenly feel as if i understand where the first noble truth says that suffering is inevitable as long as we r stuck in the samsara cycle. and i m only tasting the tip of the sea of hardship.

been taking a break too long. yet still tired. u all deserve to be more tired than i m.




alright. i wanted to post some pics of our macritchie to bukit timah hike, but the pictures din want to be uploaded. guess that will have to wait till tmr.

today had a smubs meeting. then went to marina to ATTEMPT to fly a kite. then went for steambat with puee, john, yihan, sj, siu and kc. it was nice meeting up once again. and it was nice talking to my TBA members :) thanks. for all the memories.

Bad Day

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to gray
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carryin' on

Because you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around

You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day

The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad da
yYou had a bad day
Will you need a blue sky holiday?
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day

The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day(Oooh.. a holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong(yeah...)

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day

You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day


this pretty sums up my mood right now. and this song has an effect of perking you/me up.

a bath had nvr felt so good in such a long time.

8 of us trekked from macritchie to bukit timah in 4.5 hours. the treetop walk was probably the best part, followed by the durian loop where we saw durians on tall durian trees and on the leaves-strewn floor.

tired.
the sky was cloudy tonight. think it is teh time of teh year. when teh nights are cool and a walk at night is always rejuvernating. think haven't taken such a walk in a long while. been a year plus i guess.

and mrs carmee lim was on tv last night. my inspiration. tho it was more of financial planning on her part, listening to her speak is an inspiration in itself. she speaks with such enthusiasm that really puts me to shame. her zest in life really makes u think u can achieve anything, if u put ur heart and soul into it. IF YOU PUT UR HEART AND SOUL INTO IT. listening to her makes me think that i may not be able to speak even one complete sentence in proper english. argh. mb u can try google 'carmee lim'. hope everyone finds your own inspirations soon. and remind urself once in a while what makes him or her ur inspiration.
