It's SK's birthday today!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO U!
:)


In the morning when i was on the train to work, i saw the act of kindness of Singaporeans.
I was standing near the door in the train. And i suddenly heard a loud 'thud'.
Everyone turned to look in the direction where the sound came from.

As i was blocked by tall people standing behind me, i couldn't get to see what was happening.
So after 5 seconds, i heard the train driver speaking through the intercom "Have someone pressed the emergency button?"

Someone replied, "Yes, someone has fainted."
So when the train was approaching Bradell, which was the next stop, I cld see the ppl working at the train station, waiting outside the train door.
At tt time, i was thinking to myself "They are so fast and efficient."
When the train door opened, I turned, trying to tip toe on my toes, trying to take a glimpse of what is happening.
Then i saw a lady standing up, with the help of the mrt personnels, to get out of the train.
I could see that ppl in the train immediately made way for them, even though the train was so packed with ppl.
So after the lady was being helped out of the train, a man in smrt uniform did some handling of the emergency button to make it back to normal.


My thoughts:
1) Actually Singaporeans have a side of kindness, consideration, etc, as well. They aren't tt bad after all. (As the papers normally depit us as ugly Singaporeans, which is not totally true.) Probably there's just a handful of ppl who lodge complaints, that are often being made into large issue.
2) Smrt personnels are indeed efficient. I was kind of surprised when they were alr outside the train door waiting for the train to stop. Because the lady fainted at about 1/3 of the train journey from Bradell to Bishan. And the remaining 2/3 of the time was quite short, probably less than 2 mins.
So yup, an eye-opening incident for me.


Anyway at work today, we were busy writing birthday msges in the 2 birthday cards for the birthday guys. Haha.
(I'll put up the picture of one of the card, as for the other one, i didn't had chance to take a pic of it)




During lunch, met Jerald kor for lunch and he brought me to Sakae Sushi for lunch. We each ordered a bowl of udons, chaiwamushi. And a plate of softshell crabs, red plate sashimi and red plate prawn sushi to share.
I was super duper full after lunch.
Thanks kor! (:

Being so full, i dozed off in the aftn :X (like what kor had said) Haha.
And and...
JH took revenge on me by taking a photo of me when i was sleeping.
-_- Grr.
But it's okie, cuz i have pictures of him sleeping at work as well. Haha.

Oh ya, one more thing.
Thanks JH for the muffins, and the lor mai kai u bought for me for breakfast last wk.
=D
Thanks ah, Ah gong de gege de grandson. Hahas.
Being bored, and since it was near knock-off time, we started slacking around. Haha.
JH YK
JH coming to our area to use the phone as the IT ppl were doing scanning of his computer.


After work, went KBox-ing to celebrating SK's and YK's birthday(sat).
6 of us went as the others were not free.
Anw, our plans were well planned as both of them din realise anything. Haha.
Pictures time!


Left the guys to sing in the rm while i went outside the lift waiting for the girls to bring the cake out.

After KBox, went hm, and got scolding from my dad. Said tt i kp going out at night, coming hm late (11.10pm only is considered late?!!), etc.I was so pissed off and couldn't bother to ans him much when he started questioning me. Luckily my mum told me to wash up, and so i had the chance of walking away. (And i did inform my mum i'll be going out after work okie)

It's just my dad lar.
Always reprimanding me, tt why must i always be hm on the dot of the curfew time, and nt going hm early, and wasting my time chatting and going out.
It's like wth can.
There will be no such word as curfew IF ppl always reach hm early.
I'm so angry.
Plus when my bro reach hm slightly later than the curfew time, he won't get any scolding at all can. And wad was my curfew time 2 yrs ago? 10.30pm? And his now?
So unfair can.
(Probably he doesn't go out as much as i do, but i still think it's not fair. Hrmf.)


Thursday (which is today)
In the morning, 7 plus am.
I was waken up by by dad's voice, asking me why am i not up yet.
And when i told him i took off today, for my driving lessons, he started his long string of reprimanding AGAIN.
I repeat, it's AGAIN.
This is nt the first time he's doing this, spoiling my day early in the morning.
He started questioning me.
Why did i took off for driving?
Can't i learn on Sat instead of taking leave to go for driving lessons? (BECAUSE Weekdays morning and aftn cost 72bucks a lesson, which is 10bucks cheaper than learning during weekday nights, and weekends. Plus u and mom didn't even want to foot for my driving lessons at all. U both said that if u al paid for my lessons, i won't take driving seriously. So since i'm paying all by MYSELF, i make my own choices on when i'm learning driving.)
Have i quit my job? (And he asked me this like twice, as if i was bluffing him, thinking i will continue wasting my time, or prob he thought i was still in my dreams.)
Haven i realised that uni was my last time tt i can put my effort in to study?
All sorts of qns asked.

I din even bother to ans him, pretending to be asleep towards the last few qns.
So after standing there for few mins, he walked off.
I'm so ANGRY can.
I rarely can get to slp till 9am, and here u're scolding me early in the morning, waking me up at 7plus.
It's like i'm so tired, as i've been slping at like 1am for the past few days, making b'dae card and doing my own stuffs, etc. It's nt as if my dad didn't see me making those things.
GRR.
(Although to parents, this may be a kind of concern and care shown. But to me, it's the wrong kind.)
Somehow i feel that my parents are stricter with me as compared to my brother.

Anw, my driving lesson was at 10.30am today.
Finally completed stage 2. And i learnt vertical parking today (:
7 more subjects to complete! *yeah*
But when i tried booking my practical test, and i was unable to.
Probably is because i haven gone for my auto lesson yet.
Nvm, i'll try again after 21st july, which is the date of my auto lesson.
My aim is to learn finish before my pdl expires.

So after driving, went hm, and found tt no one was at home.
Which is good.
Cuz after my grandma and a maid came to stay with us (which was in Apr), i rarely have the chance to have the whole house to myself.
Nt that i will make a chaos, but i can play the piano like nobody's business.
So i started playing some of my favourite songs.
Since young, i have the habit of practicing/playing the piano when no one's at home. (kind of weird eh haha)
So you can imagine how much i practice last time.
Opps.
Haa.

I'm thinking of finishing up Grade8, but i've still yet to confirm.
It's either i go back to my previous teacher, or prob i'll learn at Christofori.
(I've failed Grade 8 twice, and my last grade8 exam was in Mar JC1)
And i know i failed due to insufficient time spent on practicing my piano pieces and scales.
So yar, since i've alr choosen my timetable, i have 2 days free a week.
So prob during the 2 days, i'll learn driving and take up piano lessons.
(If i really take up piano lessons, i'll nd to be more thick-skinned to let them hear my horrible practicing of songs haha)

Okie, so much for today.
I'll end off now.
