Cindy posted this Lady GaGa Music Video on her blog. I find it really quirky and out of the ordinary so decided to share it too.

Very weird dance, not sure whether to use the word sexy or sadist. LOL.
One moment I can feel the sadness, the other moment I'm taken aback by the erratic scene.
And the costume - BOOMZ! or should I use SHINGZ?

Haha... Look and you'll see....

Lady Gaga - Bad Romance

MY POUCH DIED ON ME TODAY!

my purple, velvety, shiny-big-heart pouch left me today.
in memory of it, i shall name it................POUCHY!
(ok not very creative i know but hey, the simplest names are always the nicest. no? actually no, because "veronica" is not simple but it's a superbly nice name!)
back to pouchy.
pouchy's one of my most favourite pouch and she's reeeeeeally pretty!
there, see below!


pretty hor??
pouchy has served me faithfully for many yrs and has been keeping my valuables intact and safe from harm all these while.
following me everywhere I go, not a word of complain or grumble no matter what i squeeze into her body.
and the best part is, pouchy still remains very pretty no matter where i put her - on the kopitiam table, on the lecture theatre chair, on the concrete floor, in my bag.

And today, on this fateful day, despite being very very relunctant, pouchy ended her life.
while i was rushing to pack my bag for exam, i put some valuables into pouchy so that i can bring her into the exam hall. but, her zip just wouldn't zip up.
both of us struggled to zip her up, neither one of us wanted to give in! we fight and pull and twist and turn, and still to no avail.
then suddenly, her zip decided to leave one its track.

see the broken zip. poor pouchy, cannot close up her body.
then, we knew it was time. pouchy couldn't make it.
with a heavy heart, i left my room for the exam, feeling very very sad.
well, we all know every physical thing has a lifespan. when it got to go, it got to go.
So, bye bye pouchy! I will miss you. You may have a limited lifespan but my love for you will never fade. (LOL so cheesy!)


last picture with pouchy!


As the chinese saying goes, if the old doesn't go, the new won't come.
and YAY(!!!), time to use my new COACH pouch! =D


i shall name it coachy...........

This made me cry...

Another reason why I posted this is because I just studied about Alzheimer's Disease for my Neurobiology paper.

In Alzheimer's disease (AD), patients lose a selected part of their memory. This is because, in layman's terms, a mutation happened, which "changed" our genes, and hence affect the normal functioning of our brain cells (neurons). Neurons are unable to survive as efficiently as before so they die, resulting in loss of information (memory) stored in them.

Unlike Parkinson's disease, patients with AD are unaware of their condition, which makes caring for them difficult. Don't assume that AD only happen at an old age. Early-phase AD can occur too, and it is genetically-related. People who have relatives or grandparents suffering from the disease are more likely to get AD.

I personally think that I will want to go for a genetic analysis before I get married, to know more about my predispositions and general health status. However, I'm not quite sure if this service is available in Singapore, and how much it actually costs to do such an analysis. Anyone knows?

You never know when your body will fail you. So, love your body and appreciate what it has done for you!

This is the best animation on Action Potential and Saltatory Conduction that i've seen so far. I like it a lot a lot!! :)

It's in 3D, narrated, explained at an appropriate pace which makes it easy to follow and very very comprehensive! Anyone with a little bit of neurobiology background should be able to understand this.

(I know this is super random but studying for neurobio is really damn 'sian' and 'chim', need to find things to cheer myself up. lol.)

Finally at home! And finally I can post pictures! I knew the culprit was my hall's internet access!


anyway, astroboy(!) and my boy is here!
he took this using my webcam when i was away. :))


Lots of good things happened when i got back home! I really miss home, and i'm absolutely sick of hall.

Yesterday night, I heard the ding-ding-ding bell from the ice-cream man. It got me so excited that I rushed down to the carpark to get an ice-cream cone from him! 'Childhood ice-cream', that what I name them. They're the best, the king of all ice-creams. Ben N Jerrys, Hagan Daaz or swensens can all step aside. Plus, it's always cheap. And never fail to cheer me up! =D

And that night, I slept at 1 am! I forgot when was the last time i actually slept at 1 am. Sleeping times are always so crazy in hall. That is if you get to sleep. And sometimes, I don't even feel that I'd slept even though I really did!

Today, I went to the expo robinsons' sales with my parents. They wanted to get pillows cos the ones at home were too soft and lumpy. OMG the bedlinens there are so so so so so cheap can!! I have this thing for bedlinens. Seriously, I love bedlinens. Because I dont have a comforter, and I've been bugging my mum to get one for me, she finally got one comforter+bedsheet set for me!! YAYs i love mummy! Its on sales, and super cheap and value-for-money. Plus the design is nice and material not bad. =D I am a happy girl now!

In the end, we left robinsales with 2 king koil memory pillows, 1 comforter set, 15 masks (buy 10 free 5, so reasonable!), 2 Lux body foam (luv Lux) and 2 Eversoft facial foams. Total about $116 but we had 10% off with the Safra card. OCBC/Robinsons credit card holders get additonal 10% off. DAMN GOOD DEAL! I'm not advertising for robinsons here, I'm just sharing my very pleasant and fruitful shopping experience today.

Oh and luckily I reminded my parents not to let me go to the lingerie section or else we'll definitely spend more. Like bedlinens, I have this soft spot for lingerie too. Ladies are much more fortunate than men, because WE GET TO WEAR PRETTY LINGERIE! =))

The world is really small. I saw yanni and terence today at the expo. They went to visit the Hello Kitty Lab at Hall 1. Entrance fee is 38 bucks each! Ouch. Well well, most new couples dont scrimp. Love blinds their financial sense. Ask wee keat to buy something for me now, and he'll either tell me that it's not nice, or to buy it myself. Times are different now. =P

Then after leaving expo, while driving back, my dad stopped at a red light. And beside my dad's car is a BAT van. Guess who's inside? The uncle who I was under at that time! Such a coincidence! I never imagined I would meet someone I know while driving on the road, and I did today! Didnt say hi though. Cos I felt crazy to wind down the window and wave and smile to catch his attention just to say hi. lol. and its even more embarassing if he doesnt remember me.

Lastly, and once again, it's good to be home :)

Today, I met a kind soul.

Was waiting for bus B when a car pulled up in front of the bus stop and the driver asked me if I wanted a lift to school. Well, since it's on the way, and the bus is nowhere in sight, I thought "why not?". And so, I accepted the ride to North Spine.

Such little and random gestures of kindness may seem nothing, and to some "bo liao". But when you actually accept kindness from others, it definitely brightens up your day, and set you thinking about spreading the kindness to others around you. You don't have to do big and impressive things to show that you are kind, just a smile or a "hello" can in fact do the trick.

Maybe some will feel that "Oh it's because you're a girl, so he offered to give you a lift." Well, that's up to them, but I definitely do not think that it's a gender-biased act. Kindness does not discriminate.

So, spread the love everyone!

And to Zhi Hao, thank you.

Why can't I post pictures on blogger and livejournal? This only happens in hall but not at home. What's the problem?

I really really want to post pictures of me and keat at the Astro Boy movie. He's really cute. Astro boy, not wee keat.

Ok. Wee keat's cute as well, but not when he's mad at me. =P

Oh and Astro Boy's quite a nice movie. A slight touch-and-g0 about friendship, fitting into where you belong, and doing what you think you should do. Rather, more on the relationship between a father and his son. Action-wise, it doesn't appeal so much to me because it's only a cartoon and would probably appeal more to kids. The humour tickles me though - the RRF (lol!). Good watch overall.

Back to Wee keat. He has really amazing features. In secondary school and JC, friends say he looks like Anpan Man. In army, they say he looks like Ninja Turtle. Now, in Uni, uncle and gang claim he looks like Astro Boy. My bf's got an ever-changing face! Next time when I can post pictures, I'm gonna do a "How similar?" compare-and-contrast picture of him vs the cartoon characters. (that is if I can find time out of rushing lab reports and studying for exams.)

its proven, that every time the exam period arrives, i'll enter the emo mode.

semesters after semesters, it's been like this.

well, its logical for people to become emo or stressed during exam, right? no.

i bet there's something i can do about it, but i just dont know what.

im emo over
my studies (duh!) - the HUGE amount of mat'l I need to read understand absorb and apply,
cheer (cheer cheer cheer...sigh),
the lab reportsss I have yet to do,
my r/s with keat,
my time management, or the lack of,
whether i'm going to get a place in hall next yr,
my weight (why should I even be bothered with it?!?!),
and things which I cant even pinpoint on.

GAHHHHH its frustrating.
but semesters after semesters, I emerge from this unharmed.
still the same me, neither stronger or weaker. lol.
and so it will be this semester.

Jia you V. get over it.
