Day 3It's Macau Day!!!WOoo~

Breakfast @ ferry terminal

Y is Mark so bored?

Power breakfast. HK food rocks.

Going to take the ferry...

P.S. (I'm currently trying to use blogger's hosting services, still not quite used to it. Bear with me at the moment)

Woohoo..not been blogging for quite some time. Life's monotonous, as I've been working since early Oct.

Nothing much happened so there isn't really anything for me to blog. (Other than the unfinished post of the hong kong trip) The main highlight was my aussie cousin Hau, who came over for a 3 week long holiday. Great to have him around though, all the shopping and late suppers really served as a deserved break to me. Not to mention the countless number of trips to Costa Del Sol, such a nice condo really...Ironically, I may be joining him for 3 yrs soon. LOL!

I dunno why my tag board is down. Can't seem to get it working. Anyway, will post more when I'm free.

Part 2:

After dining at cafe de coral, we made our way up to the peak. We took the hard way by travelling upwards via the mid-levels escalators. There are alot, and I seriously mean alot of escalators, forgot the actual number though.




After finishing the mid-levels escalators, we provided to take a cab up the peak. Hahahaha. 5 people share cab cheap ma, so we decided to give our legs some much deserved rest. Too bad the trip to the peak was like less than 5 minutes. -_-






We left the peak via the tram, will was travelling on an extremely steep slope, kinda scary though. On the way down, you get to see alot of nice condos, which are practically built on the mountains. So we went back to hotel to meet the other 2 marist brothers, Alex and Mark.


Soon we went to Lan Kwai Fong to have our dinner at the famous restaurant called Yung Kee (if I dont recall wrongly) , the price was a little more expensive, but the food served were all really decent and nice. Soon, we went to club at Lan Kwai Fong. The clubbing scene kinda sucks. Maybe we went to the wrong club?



Alright folks, that's all for day 2.

Endo: Day 2 - Fri - 15 July 06 - 0300 hrs - HK - Macau's next!

Tata!~Here comes the long awaited post on the Hong Kong trip again.

Starto: Day 2 - Fri - 14 July 06 - HK Evergreen Hotel - Full of anticipation
(P.S. Suddenly it feels very difficult to blog about something that has occured like close to 2 mths ago, haha but I will try my best to recall, using the photos as a guide.)

Yup, I guess we all woke up rather early on friday. We had our schedule changed coz Shiwei needs to go to the Singapore Consulate to get his temporary passport done. That place was located somewhere in Central I think. Therefore we had our breakfast in Central. We went to this dim sum restaurant called :




Anyway this restaurant's dim sum is so-so only, not that fantastic as we thought. This is also the famous restaurant where a tycoon was assasinated in broad daylight, and a place whereby the uber rich Li Ka Shing frequents.


Shiwei taking photo for his temporary passport.



The residential buildings behind are called the mid-levels. Considered quite expensive I think.

ICAC Building. Familiar huh? Haha

Finally we arrived...

at the consulate of Singapore. Cool pic huh? ^_^ v


At causeway bay shopping, shopping paradise.

Famous fast-food chain Cafe-de-Coral. Bad service, sucky food. Weird huh?

It's over. All over. The last paper is finally over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's almost a year of studies, which began when I was still in army. How time flies. Finally I have a taste of life without studies and work. My peers all experienced this before right after they ORD.It's my turn now. Muahahaha.

Right now, I'm pretty free I guess, but still got quite a couple of things I have to settle. Parents' biz stuff for instance, I should spend my free time now brainstorming and getting the important stuff done. Earlier on in a post, I commented that MDIS papers are easy. Actually I should take back my word. Hahahaha. I think I should have more confidence in myself rather than commenting that the paper is easy. Right? Anyway, just hope that everything goes well for the final 2 papers, sp that my uni application will be successful.

Cousin Hau is coming over to Singapore soon, with his girlfriend of coz! Both are doctors, perfect match I think. Gotta plan where to bring them, so that they can enjoy their holiday to the fullest. In addition, my maternal grandma will be going for a heart operation this thursday. It's a simple operation with little risk, so she will be out of the hospital in no time. Wish her a speedy recovery. =)

Recently I'm hooked onto this new taiwanese drama called 'The Hospital'. Reason why I started watching was because the main actress is so damn pretty. Buay tahan. Basically this show depicts the office politics that occurs in a hospital. Just finished episode 9. Pretty good but there is yet any mega tear-jerking scene. In Taiwan, they just released episode 20. I wonder how many are there in total?





Visit the official webpage to know more about the show.

Argh..the paper this afternoon was neither tough nor easy. Kinda screwed up 2 out of 4 questions, which I consider to be pretty bad. To think that I put in the most effort in this module compared to the previous ones. Damn ironic...Hopefully the grades will be ok.

6 more days, 6 more days to the completion of my advanced diploma course. Time flies during this 11 months of school. This course has definitely affected my future studies in one way or another. For example, I will be in aussie land studying if I had not taken up this course when I was in army. In addition, I realised that only through sheer hard work and effort then you can achieve good grades. (Although I had to admit MDIS papers are quite easy, but you still have to put in effort to get an A right? Hahahaha! Somemore part-timers don't have tutorials, we have to do all the studying by ourselves, I really admire those who work full-time, and yet find the extra time to study. Salute!)

I know it's like duh? But all the while, since primary school began, I never really put in effort into studying. PSLE was last minute work, so was the O levels. Both were still average, but it was totally different for A levels. I did the last minute stun again and the ending result was so devastating. Anyway, let's just hope that everything will be smooth for the last 2 papers. Pray for me if you can, thanks! =)

Will blog more and continue on the hong kong trip after my last paper on Sept 11th. Tata~

Just a little post to keep this blog alive. Lotsa things happened recently, plus my test and project are just over..that's why no time no blog, or rather no mood to blog ba.

In less than 3 weeks I'm gonna sit for the exams of my last 2 modules. Guess I will be busy mugging. I will continue the post on the Hong Kong trip when I have the free time and mood. No point blogging about a happy event with a frustrated mind.

Till then...

Okay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Domo hardo gay~~~~~wth, anyway, tried to revamp my blog with a new and slightly modified skin...The 'renovation' backfired like a M-16 on auto mode. I keep having a white background instead of the GREEN background I want. Been trying ways and means to get the skin fixed, but to no avail. Thus...my update on my Hong Kong trip is delayed! Muahahahaha. To those complain-ers, complain no more! As I shall start the update....

Starto: Day 1 - Thur - 13 July 06 - 1400 hrs - Sg - Excited

The trip is here finally! A trip to get out of Singapore, freed from the 66.6% gahment, freed from rising public transport fees, freed from whatever bad cheesepies you can think of la. This is my virgin trip aboard, without my family's company. No doubt I can take care of myself, gonna be 21 soon liao lor. This time, I'm going to a country I have seen on tv on countless of occasions, all thanks to TVB's dramas. Not only I'm on a trip to a country that is amazing, I also have the company of my best friends. A pity not all the marists can make it. 7's a decent number anyway. We checked in early to jalan around the shops inside, since shopping in there is quite rare. Ended up eating Delifrance, don't ask me why..Haha.


Bert & me @ Delifrance


In valuair, signs of exhilaration noted. Or rather...signs of weiqi-ism lingers...

First time travelling on a budget airline. Overall it was quite ok, just that there are no movies, no music, no food, cramp, ugly stewardess, loud engine noise etc. It was quite alright isn't it? I tried to catch some sleep with my mp3 player blasting at full volume. Still, the engine noise proved to be the louder one. So I decided to play dai dee with my neighbours. Dave is one cheeky player. Never fail to haolian when he got damn good cards. I don't think he reads my blog so it's ok suaning him, hahahaha. The flight was around 3hr+++, we just can't wait to land on Hong Kong. However, we did not realise that something BAD is about to happen...

On the bus to airport. Yes we took the stairs down from the plane, like those footballers returning home from world cup.

My dear brother Mr Lay Shi Wei look so happy on the photo above. Never did he realise that his passport is actually not with him. (It was later found on the same plane, in Bali) First cock-up of the trip. An ultra-gargantua cock-up it was. Hahaha, our moods are definitely dampened, but we were strong and vowed not to bow to cock-ups. Gilbert advised us to retrieve all our luggages while he accompanies Shiwei to report the loss of his passport.

Told ya we are strong people. Stranded, waiting at the belt area.

I made 2 trips to the customs counter hoping to see their faces, but was only greeted by disappointment. After around 1 hr+ of waiting, Gilbert called and told us to proceed to our hotel to check in first, lest they cancel our booking. Thus, after much brilliant and shrewd discussion with Zhida, we decided to purchase the airport express ticket to Tsing Yi. Afterwhich we will switch to a train going to Lai King, and that will take us to Jordan MTR. This is the CHEAPEST route, if you are staying around Jordan area. Something to highlight. All the while, we (3 pple) were carrying a total of 5 luggages. Imagine dragging so many luggages in the middle of Nathan Street. We must have attracted lots of attention. At first Dave and I got a shock when we saw 'Evergreen Hotel water sprinklet'. It was a delapidated looking place and we actually thought it was our hotel. Lucky it was'nt, and finally we found home. Not a classy place, but definitely a nice and decent place to stay in. Most importantly, it's freaking cheap. Each of us only need to fork out around $48 per night. Beat that! Soon, Shiwei called to say that they are on their way here. Meanwhile, we went down to the 7-11 to buy some cup noodles, as hunger is about to devour us anytime. After they finally arrived, we went down to a cafe just beside our hotel, and got our long awaited dinner...first decent meal in Hong Kong. No more cock-ups please?

Roast goose rice, yummylicious

Gilbert, Dave, Zhida. All still good, fighting spirit still there.


Shiwei, apparently on high spirits after being 'released' from the airport. LOL!

After dinner, we went back to the hotel to unpack and bathe. Although I'm damn tired, I could not fall asleep. Only went to dreamland after tossing on the bed till around 4+am.

Endo: Day 1 - Fri - 14 July 06 - 0400 hrs - HK - Tired

It was one kick-ass trip. Stay tuned for the longest blog entry...coming soon~

Leaving for Hong Kong in another 15 hrs time.

It will be a fun-filled trip, a perfect retreat which I really need. With all my best brothers in my life.

See you guys next tuesday!!!

Well I guess I really have nothing better to do during this weird timing, I thought I might as well do a little post on my cute-yet-naughty cousin. This post is called....

The Different Faces of Khloe Soon

1) Sleepy look

2) Demure look

3) Supermodel look

4) The-trying-to-play-a-fool look

What do you guys think?

Ok the photos from my previous work is up! But this are only a few photos I took, the bulk we took is still with Mr Lu Wenyang who obviously have not uploaded a single shit onto his computer. Talk about efficiency, haha hope he's not looking at this.

This is just one small part of the whole warehouse


Wenyang climbing in...


My turn...


Posing by the lorry


Hopefully that lazy ass will upload the bulk of the photos soon. For the benefits of my blog readers, lol.

Bah I'm back, to those loyal readers of mine. Those who I do not know of, haha. -_-

The month of June is coming to an end soon. This means those students will start school soon. Muahahaha. While I still can sleep till whenever I like. Month of July is just around the corner. It's the official month of the '85 babies man. Have so many friends having their 21st in the month of July, which means more money woes for me.

Just got the reply from University of New South Wales, which is having their new campus in Singapore next March 2006. The admisson office say that I can apply for their degree courses with my advanced diploma from University of Bradford, but definitely I will need some decent grades to enter UNSW, given that their admission requirements are higher than UQ. Hopefully I can get into UNSW Asia, although I have to give up the chance to study in Aussie land. Afterall, I can help my mom save alot of money, which is the top priority thing now I guess. Furthermore, all my close friends are in Singapore, so being able to study in Singapore would be a plus point. Also, I would be able to help out with my parents' biz.

My friends - If you were me, what would you do? Comments are welcomed. Thanks in advance. =)

Bah...so much things to write but im just so tired and lazy...coz I've been working for the past few days!!!

Monday 29th May-Start of a 3 day job...my first job since ORD-ing. God...did not expect this job to be that jialat. Stock taking in a closed down warehouse in defu lane. Firstly, my friend and I need to climb over a gate that is locked by KPMG (don't ask me why is it them, I suppose they are in charge of this closing down thingy). Soon we were greeted by this super-mega huge warehouse, filled with pallets of tiles, which are covered with thousand-year dust(qian1 nian2 hui2 chen2). Too hard to describe the environment...simply too dirty.

Tuesday 30th May-Our lives were saved by a bangladesh worker called Ah Tua(He like to tua pao,aka tua kang).He was once the storeman at the warehouse, thus he know the place inside out. With his help, our workload decreased by about 50% sia! Haha. But still, there was much to be done.

Wednesday 31st May-Work is pretty much the same as Tuesday. When the time came for us to say goodbye to the warehouse, I actually felt a little abit of melancholy. Weird, extremely weird. Can't really explain why I got that feeling. Maybe its the rare experience of working at a warehouse....and a bangladesh worker driving 4 people with a forklift that makes me feel that way. Our boss was quite a friendly guy anyway, just that he doesn't pay us much. Zzz...
(I will upload the photos and videos we took at the warehouse as soon as I get them from the lazy wenyang.)

Thurday 1st June-Back to the world of slacking. Went pc show with wenyang, and we saw a lin zhiling look alike there at the motorola booth. We were totally awe-struck...she's just so pretty. We were quite cock coz we kept walking around the motorola booth, throwing small glances at her. Come to think of it, we were really really really cock. Argh...if only we were working at the motorola booth. Damn it. Don't say I no-pic-no-talk. Here's the pic:

Make me feel like buying a V3i from her booth sia! Come to think of it, I really need a new phone anyway, and V3i is top of my list. Problem is, I don't have enough money to buy one. That simply sucks. I'm trying to save all the money I earn for the Hong Kong trip in July. Haiz...

Friday 2nd June-Start of a week long assignment as a data entry clerk, in Raffles City Towers. Job partner, Mr Lu Wenyang again! Haha. It's the first time we wore formal to work. The feeling is different, it feels like we were the general manager or something. LOL! But in reality we are only the clerks...-_- Definitely alot more eye candy during our lunch break, but food are generally expensive, plus the fact that we were only earning $50 a day. NVM! I shall endure the low pay, and slowly work towards the path of a succesfull businessman! Muahahahaha~

Meanwhile, stay tuned for the pictures and videos we took at the warehouse...one of them is dedicated to Mr Dennis Lim, who introduced us the wonderful job. Hahaha. Oh btw he still owes wenyang and me a treat, anyone know him can remind him for me? Thanks.

Stupid calf of mine making me unable to sleep. Hurting so much after a thorough inspection of orchard road, ending up with a sinfully beautiful shoulder bag. Was so tempted to buy 2 flesh imp tees at $35, but managed to hold myself back. Wonder what's with my shopping craze recently, even though my pocket ain't that deep.

Finally my exams have ended. It's time to really take a break from the books. Time to look for a part time job as well! To finance my new found hobby-shopping, as well as to raise the get-a-trip-out-of-singapore fund. Money money money...it's all that matters isn't it?

Damn blogger is lagging. I shall end here. Anyways I'm free this week. I'm up for any dates. =)

Presenting to you....my buddy shiwei!!!
Winner of the most dramatic singing in Singapore Idol. Interested to know him? Just let me know. =)


Wooohooo. How's that? Thousand kudos to my buddy. He simply rock.

One more week...

One more week before my final paper. Damn..The economics paper was tougher than I had expected. When I scanned through the paper I was like "woah..." I wrote non-stop for 3 hours till I had no choice but to put the pen down. I completed the paper though, but I thought more points could be added. Next thursday is the Production & Operations Management Paper. a.k.a the I-duno-what-the-hell-is-this-module paper. Pray hard for me friends, for I have totally no confidence in this stupid module.

Cough is still there. Worst cough in my life so far I presume. But looking on the bright side, I've lost weight. Haha. So not too bad afterall.

Well..with regards to the previous post. The consequence of staying up late=fall sick.

Grrr...Down with sore throat+cough+flu since Monday. The most typical and powerful non-lethal sickness to strike many people nowadays. Bert, dan, mark are sick too. Our marist gang seems like it's being plagued with some bad luck. Damn it...

Next monday is econs exam. Hope I recover fast enough to finish up my revision.
