hmm... i went to the post office to post some documents relating to my accomadation. i asked how much was it to fax... and the lady said plus IDD... each page will cost $3plus... i was like?? wow... tts expansive sia... i had four pages to send... if i were to use the fax service there, i will have to spend $3plus per page... which is ard $12 in total... i chose to post it... jus $1.20 for everything... yah... anyway it wasnt tt urgent... so 4-6days for the post to reach is okie...
after i went home... den when to ngee ann to meet faizal... ha... i almost forgetten to alight at the SIM bustop cus lsct has shifted and its nearer to stop at sim bustop... yah... so met faizal... had lunch at the mega bites at sim... the marche style place... its been ages since i last went there... its still the same... the place still use the paper to chop purchases... marche has already changed to using plastic cards long ago... i had chicken chop... the same tt i usually have when i was studying at ngee ann... haha...
yah... the reason for gg to np was to acc faizal to find the lecturer who does plants... yah... made me acc him walk all over the block jus to find tt lecturer... diao... and i was carrying all the ntu bio year 2.2 notes tt he passed to me... super heavy can... i wanted the notes so that i can read up first to prepare... actuallie the notes were not his too... it was peishan's... my sec sch gd friend who is my senior in biotech... yah... acutalie is i link faizal up with her for notes one lor... yah... peishan has been lending him her notes all the while in ntu... tts y he can afford to keep sleeping in class... diaoz... tts not gd... i think i shld tell peishan to stop lending him notes... haha... den no choice but to stay awake and copy the notes...
to my surprise i saw peishan in np todae and in a labcoat summore... haaha... i was shocked to see her there... and in a labcoat... i was like... "eh! u retake poly arh??" hahaa... turned out she was actuallie wokring as a tso there for the sch holidaes... and todae was her first dae of work... haha.. so coincidence... first dae of work and i saw her there... she will be working for the sch holidaes there until sch starts again at ntu... haha... yah... and she is one whom i know tt has the longest relationship with her boyfriend... since our sec sch daes... haha... her boyfriend i also know... haha... maybe time to get married...
hmm... also saw Dr Wayne 4dae... haha... still the same old porky pig face... and i think he cant remember my name... haha... he named faizal... peishan... but paused a long while trying to figure my name... den peishan said... simon~... den he "ahhh... yaaa.... siiimmoooon~" diaoz... haha... anyway when faizal asked him for the number of the lecturer tt he was looking for... guess wad... Dr 4dae told him to go look for the number in the telephone directory... he said tts how he found his number too... wahaahaa.... i feel like laughing can... imagine u go all the way down to ngee ann... den someone tells u to look at the telephone directory.... diaoz... haha i was laughing at faizal... den i said to him.... "eh... lucky he din tell u to go google it..." haha... i can still remember he like to tell ppls to go google stuff tt we dun know to find out more..... tt was during our poly daes... haha... "go google it~!" diaoz... lecturer for wad? replaced by google ar?
si tian yi shen... Dr 4dae... hahaa...
oh... also saw Dr Koh... he was kinda busy so din tok much to him... he's still the same nice guy... =) he asked if i was still in the army... my reply was a very funnie super casual... "oh... i ORD--eeed lohhhh!!" hahaa... nice guy... i think most ppls tok to him in a more serious way... but i usually talk to him in a more casual way... i prefer a more casual tone... =)
after tt we headed to the bustop for a bus to town... and i was like walking to towards the sim bustop with is nearer... and faizal said... "eh... walk there leh... go to the atrium there the bustop..." i was like... huh... y? sim nearer... and he was like... "can see chio bu mah" i was like... eh... but sim busstop is jus there only larh... faizal:"go leh... walk there leh... mus see some chio bu... atrium alot..." i was like... haiz... aiyah... up to u larh.... i was carrying this heavy bag of notes lah... and i wasnt interested in look at chio bu larh... wanna look can go town look mah... y walk one big round jus to see chio bu? diaoz...
we went to town... we wanted to look at crumpler bags... yah... i saw smth i wanted but dun have the colour i wanted... =x faizal still deciding to get the bag... maybe i'll jus acc him if he decides to get a crumpler bag... i have the discount card... haha... but i told him i din hav... but oh well... if he wans i can go down with him to get it with a discount before i leave...
he asked me to go down to see his race... but i said i cant... if i can i'll most likely only go on the 30th... if someone trains hard for smth... i will go support... tts me... it like u train so hard... ofcus u wan ppls to support u and see the glory or least the "fighting" process of getting to it... winning is smth tt you wan to achieve... but if you still fall short of winning... know that u've put in ur best... if not know tt u can do better and fine tune urself towards ur goals... haha... i will always support... so if i can i'll go... but for the next dae of the race i definately wont be able to go... cus i'll be on the plane and he will be on the boat...
hmm... i have this sudden feel to wanna be a student in np like last time...

ih has finally accepted me as a resident. i've been waiting for their response for so long. but now its abit too late. i've decided and agreed to stay in a private apt.
i wonder if ih will be fun to stay at. it offers catered meals so i dun have to cook which is a good thing cus i dun reallie know how to cook... but i need to eat at specific meal timings and sat sun there will also be food... so if i were to go out on a sat... i will be wasting the food... which is wasting money...
so its less flexible... but staying in a private apt i will need to cook my own food... yes... cook.... cook.... which is smth i'm not very good at...
i'm thinking how am i gonna cook... yes i'll have a full apt with full kitchen facilities... but how?? how to cook? i need to learn how to cook... i need to... if not i dunno how i'm gonna survive... to survive i need to learn how to cook... no choice... i mus know how to cook by myself... haha... maybe i will become a very gd cook... cus no choice... die die mus learn to cook by myself... yah... gao bu hao i'll become reallie gd at cooking... next time at least can cook some nice dishes for my wife if i get married... =x
haha... think too much...
haha... i jus made some hot chocolate drink todae... not those instant kind but reallie need to add fresh milk... sugar... vanilla... make hot... mix.... mus measure the amt of each to add too... haha... i got my family to try... haha... still can pass... mai hiam buay pai....
cooking~~~~~ how? i'm a microwave guy... an instant noodles guy... a "make hot the food ready to eat" guy... cook from scratch? haha... i can try... but bu bao zhen that is edible... okie la... i can fry an egg... tts easy... i can cook rice... tts easy too... make poached veg i can too... but how abt the meats? the fish? the sweet and sour pork? the ribs?
i hope i can pick up some cooking skills there...
