Usually I can't really be bothered about the political nit pickings that happen in NTU. Even in my own school in WKWSCI, when Cherian George was denied tenure, I didn't pay much attention. And when a past Wkw Valedictorian mentioned the F word and created so much sensationalism, I was also quite nonchalant about it.

But this case about Darren Woo caught my attention.

I honestly think he is an innocent victim here and that everyone's just making such a big fuss about it.

If you dunno what's been happening, watch this video of his speech,




Around 8 mins plus he mentions about how Chinese Majors probably don't understand English.

Usually, I wouldn't give much respect to people who act damn angmoh and pretend they don't know Mandarin. But, I have spoken to him before when I was a freshie in Hall 3, and he is verryyy funny and judging by the few occasions that I've spoken to him, I think he is good-natured and humble. I like his personality very much.

What infuriates me the most are the comments being posted on this YouTube video.
I just don't understand why Singaporeans have to be so vile in their comments, dissing and dissing one after another. What's worse are the petty comments they resort to,





I really don't understand how people can thumbs-up these comments. I swear. Ridiculous.
It's like, they HAVE to post these petty comments just BECAUSE. I really don't see the humour or fun in continuously poking fun at a dude over and over again.

Maybe I am biased, because had I not spoken to him before, I would probably feel the same way as the rest of my fellow Singaporeans. But no, I just cannot stand how people are overreacting to it. It's like there's nothing else to gossip and complain about that they have to cyber bully this dude. Yes, it's cyber bullying alright.

I felt so compelled that I actually wrote a comment on YouTube in his defense, EVEN THOUGH I HARDLY AND BARELY KNOW HIM AT ALL. Wow, just look at that. But I seriously think it is SO ridiculous that I need to say my piece to stop people from perpetuating comments about how annoying they think he is blahblahblah. Keyboard warriors I swear.

I am of course, afraid that people are gonna haunt me back on YouTube and diss me as well. But I just checked, and I'm glad other people are stepping forward to post comments defending him as well. It's absolutely ridiculous, this whole fiasco.

Happy 21st Birthdays Joelyn and Yenhuei!!!!!!!!
 
If you've been reading my blog for YEARS, then yes, you will know these 2 pretty well enough. 28th July, their birthdays fall on the same day. Xiuwei's and Pohling's are in July and May respectively. So every year around this time, all of us will be meeting up reallll often. Like REAL often hahah.
 
I missed the earlier 2's birthdays so it was great fun celebrating their 21st with these 2!
 
Yen Huei's sister, Erica, did a lot of planning for last night as well so kudos to her.
Met up with my other 2 girls Yuanyun and Yijie earlier in the day to surprise Joelyn so in total, I surprised Joelyn twice yesterday. Yay me I'm the best right Joelyn. Say yes. "Yes". Good girl. Hahahah freakin talkin to myself.
 
Anyway, we spent the night at Shuffle and stayed up all the way past midnight when the clock struck 12 and they became 21! Erica was so smart coz she managed to get the birthday girls to drink Flaming Lambourghinis.
 
Here's Joelyn takin her one-time gulp of it.

Well the lighting of the place and the flash of my camera worked pretty bad but yes, her drink was definitely on fire, but the flames just do not appear here.
 
Hahahha, Yenhuei, immediate fell into a drunken state. Joelyn definitely slightly high. But way to go girls, great way to start your day as a 21 year old. Hahaha
 
Erica (again) suggested the graveyard drink and we each had our turn to sip the deadly concoction while throwing out zeros and fives. Well, Xiuwei and Yenhuei became the reddest of the night after that coz they were the biggest losers of that game.
 
So to sum the night, 1 drunk girl, 2 red girls and all of us very happy girls to spend the night together on the 28th of July for one very special occasion : )
 
Buying their presents got us to meet up several times this week. I've never had so many meetings with them in one time ever. (with so many whatsapp groups with titles that seemed repetitive to me I got confused sometimes. I was even afraid I'd speak in the wrong one by accident then die surprise fail) SO yay us girls. Hahahah. It truly is great to be back to be with these girls/
 
Hope you 2 had a blast on your 21st birthdays! Such a significant milestone and we've been friends since we were 15. Nearly 6 years man. That's longer than well, any of the relationships I've had with many of my non-existent boyfriends. But hey, that's besides the point. What's important is, OUR FRIENDSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER IS VERY MUCH ALIVEEEEE!!!!
 
And I hope it burns alive for many years to come, like the Flaming Lambourghinis of last night. The flame will live on, in our bellies, in our hearts and in our soulllls. hahaha wth talkin shit.
 
 
Here are a few more pictures before we round up the night!


 
 
Cheers buddy!

That's the name of that Rock looking thing I was eating. Taahira suggested that I have it since I'd never eaten it before.
BATHURA. It's the new prata. Move over, naan. Gonna be my new born Chindian baby's name. Bathura Singh or something.
And yes, we had Indian instead of Malay. I enjoyed the Bathura, though I wasn't feeling completely full by the end of it. Still tasted good though. Crispy. I wouldn't say the lemon went well with it. Better off on its own. .


Anyway, I enjoyed this meet up so much. As you can see, it's a very multicultural group coz here I am, the smelly Chinese, with Taahira as Indian advocate and Suzanna half ketupak half chicken rice if you get what I mean haha. She's mixed Malay & Chinese. Cool ah.

Broke fast with them at a specific time at 7:17pm. How specific is that huh!? And yes, the time for Iftar changes every day according to the sun setting. They've this timetable that informs them that Suzanna showed me. Well well, how ignorant was I before that, but it's never too late to know woooop!

So it was awesome how we exchanged exchange stories fwahahha I love what I just did there. Exchanged exchange stories ;D Can only do that with wkw people. I'd say it was really comfortable telling them about exchange experiences coz we all went on exchange and it was nice telling and listening to all of our stories. For me, I found it easier telling them about exchange than my other friends. It didn't feel like I was talking too much about exchange. With them, we all went through exchange so we could discuss experiences. Like how it was like in US (Suzanna), Turkey (Taahira) and New Zealand. We talked non-stop all the way from 6:30pm for 5 hours before walking our separate ways. I think exchange for all of us was an experience that was so surreal yet unforgettable.

We also compared things that were so different here and overseas. We talked about race, religion, sex, without any lines drawn. Race, although a sensitive topic, was easily raised and talked about. I remember we were talking so loudly in the Indian restaurant about Indians and everything. But it was ok. We were a represent of all 3 races here in Singapore.

And of course, we also talked about school and sexciting stuff about it. Never ending stuff to share about when you're in wkwsci ; )

This meeting was, I wanted to say a success but that just sounds so corporate. But anyway yes, we are totally arranging another one before school starts. Taahira's taking us eyebrow threading coz I've never done it before and have always wanted to. Plus my eyebrows have always looked like I dunno what and I've considered doing something about it. Guess now's the time. Yes, I have never plucked my eyebrows before. Amazing ain't I. Also, I've always wanted to go to a Mosque to witness prayers. So, they're thinking of bringing me to one haha! Tudung time/ Much excites.

Was panicking a little last night coz I realised I'm the only one in this world who doesn't have a concrete timetable yet. Sigh, school woes settling in. Gone were the days when all I had to do to register courses was through pen and paper with a consultant. It's back to fast and furious Singapore. But it's ok, since day 1 in NTU, I've never gotten the courses I wanted through Stars Wars hahaha. I am awesome like that. But of coz, fight after that during add/drop. Yay. Can't wait.

Heading out for dinner and breaking fast with a friend soon! Woop dee woop Malay food here I coma. Malay food cravings quelled. Pictures if I do take any.

The night we night cycled.
 
The route was extremely, EXTREMELY LEPAK hahahah. Pace was quite slow and we stopped a lot with MAKAN BREAKS TOO NYAHAHAHA. Singapore food still DA BEST LAH.
 
 
Strangely, all my cravings seized the moment I landed in Singapore. Remember how I was craving for everything Singaporean in NZ? Once I returned, I had absolutely no more cravings at all. I seriously stopped eating so much. Or as much, I would say.
 
I conclude, the weather is the shit that made me hungry 24/hrs there. Coz here, I just feel damn bloated all the time. Just thinking about how I ate back then.. all the chocolate and stuff just makes me feel so amazed at myself. And quite sick. Therefore, limpeh needs to work out now.
 
The route for Night Cycling was from East Coast back to East Coast. In other words, around the city. So it was quite short. But it's ok, I got to catch up with quite a few people and that's what matters. And I enjoyed the route even though it was short. Coz it was my first time seeing the city after being back in SG for 4 days! I particularly liked the fact that they included the viewing of this feature that's installed near Marina Bay Shopping Centre. It's a water and light installation. Was moving somehow... I truly believe it was the fact that us exchange students just returned so it got us thinking a lot about SG again.
 
How I miss our lively city :')
Food readily available past freakin 6pm.
 
 
ANYWAY.
 
Today, or rather yesterday, since it's past midnight, (and yes, if you realised, I like blogging at night and end up talking about yesterday instead of today coz of this),
 
My parents and I made a spontaneous decision to visit the National Museum of Singapore.
 
GUESS WHAT!!?!
 
It was the best decision made everrrr!!
 
Coz NSM was having an Open House which meant ALL galleries were free. Even this gallery called "Princely Treasures". As a typical Singaporean, well duh, free then GOGOGO.
 
What's more, Lee Hsien Loong was there to inaugurate an event on SG Heritage :*D
 
Sadly, I never got to see him because we missed him while we were in that gallery. Sigh, I badly wanted to see him you know. Should have followed my heart and left that gallery early, but I was thinking it'd be kinda stupid to leave it and come back in after that. Not like we have all the time left in the museum.  Ah well. I will have other opportunities to meet the man in person.
 
I also bumped into a few of my wkw counterparts at a Flea Market available at the museum. So freakin coincidental it's awesome. Walked right past Cheryl and Cherie and didn't realise till Cheryl called my name. Woah! Love it. Was about to leave when Yiming called out to me. I freakin think I'm invisible man. Hahhaha, so not aware of my surroundings. It was good to see them there!
 
Went to view the Singapore History gallery after that. Have to go back again some time coz we didn't borrow audio equipment and the museum's exhibits are very reliant on audio descriptions. Without audio, you won't know what they're exhibiting. Which is what I didn't like about the museum. Too technologically reliant. And it's really cramped. NEEDS REVAMPING!!!!
 
Well, at least I got to see Lee Kuan Yew cry and that's what everyone goes to the museum to see hahahahhaha. Separation from Malaya, well thank god we did.
 
Will head back to the museum again with the Dad some day again coz he's the other one in the family who enjoys reading History. I must've got it from him.
 
 
Oh and just when I thought everything in SG was about rainbows and butterflies, this elderly aunty chided me this morning at a hawker centre coz I ate my ban mian too slowly and she had realised that after walking 3 rounds around the area clearing dishes. I was taken aback. Coz I did nothing to aggravate her. I even said xie xie to her twice when she came round to collect the dishes from my family. Guess she was annoyed that with her third time coming, I still wasn't done yet. Well, I am not blaming her for scolding me. Coz honestly, I think at that age, the world is just not as merry as it was 50 years ago. In other words, people just get grumpier as they grow older. And she's cleaning tables... Wouldn't wanna see my parents do that when they're old as well man. Don't mean to sound paternalistic or presumptuous, but this is what I'm imagining- She's financially stretched and cleaning tables would be her only form of earning income at this age. And probably her kids aren't helping. Therefore. Then this stupid girl has to eat so slow like the sky is gonna come down and I can't even clear her dish. She think she princess is it.
 
Yeap, that's probably it haha.
 
Still, that was just one little incident.
 
Sigh, you think I don't think about such things? Of course I do. And it plagues me thinking about how lucky I am to be raised in a middle-income family. Having lesser financial woes... Almost close to none, in relation to other countries as I live in a small yet wealthy state.
 
Let's stop at that, otherwise this post becomes a politically or philosophically charged one.
 
Hookay, I will honestly try to blog about Aussie and NZ soon ok!! In the meantime, here's to a fruitful week ahead! Can't wait to meet all my friends again.

I was watching this channel 8 drama and fell in love with this song by Tanya Chua...

I honestly thought she died in the music scene already. But I really like this song and was surprised to find out it was sung by her! Can totally tell the singer is more English-speaking by the way she pronounces the Chinese lyrics.



Love the part when she sings, "满意了吗?" I just love the way her voice... I can't find the damn word to describe it. I wanna say I love the way her voice "drones" when she sings those words but "drone" has a negative connotation to it so doesn't sound so nice.

Well you'll get what I mean when you play the song. Thanks. Support local music. Thanks.

Hi.

So much things to update this space on! I'm heading out for night cycling with WKWSCI in 3 hours. Ahhh, how I miss seeing people from my school. I said PEOPLE. Definitely not looking to academic workload hahaha. From now till school begins, I'm meeting up as many people as I can to catch up and unwind : )

Before I do head off, here are just some highlights on my grand tour of Queensland Australia, Melbourne and Tasmania with some of the best travel companions! The past 2-3 weeks were simply amazing.

Brighton Beach; Great Ocean Road; Sydney Harbour Bridge; Falls Creek; Tasmania

That's not the end though! Just a few highlights.

By the time we reached Vivien's apartment at Brisbane, we were pretty much quite exhausted hahaha. Alicia could only join us for the first week at Melbourne. Nevertheless, I'm so thankful that we managed to go ahead with our plan of spending our winter hols in Australia!!! TOGETHERRRR!!!!

Even my dad was happy for us, because once Vivien graduates, we'd probably not have much opportunities to go on trips together like that. In time to come, they'll be such great memories!!!

I'll blog a more comprehensive post on my trip Down Under with my coral girls alright. I want to say "I Promise" but hey, I still have the South Island trip that was in April that I have yet blogged about too HAHA. Such a procrastinator. But there are so many darn pictures it's CRAZYYYY.

I will do what I can. In the meantime, I am waking up from a dream that lasted 5 months ago and soaking in reality that is not bleak at all right now. Looking forward to meet ups and familiar faces!

Been watching TV the whole of today almost everyday since I came back ahhaha, I love TV.

Anyways, I'm hoping to get some sleep before night cycling tonight. Yay.

The title says it all. I replied with a nod and a smile, to the Vietnamese girl who was sitting beside me on my flight back home to Singap...

The title says it all.

I replied with a nod and a smile, to the Vietnamese girl who was sitting beside me on my flight back home to Singapore. The plane had just landed at Changi Airport. Same for her, she was heading back to Vietnam, with Singapore as a stopover, after more than 2 years in New Zealand. It humbled me knowing that someone had been away from home much longer than I had. Yet for her, she has to go back to Auckland after 28 days, to complete her 3-year degree course at AUT.

"28 days spent at home are not enough", she said.
I agreed.

"Will your family be there at the airport to meet you?", I asked.
"I hope so" she said, with a slight grin on her face. She directed the same question at me.

I imitated her reply, "I hope so!", with both of us laughing.

It is conversations like these that I will miss a lot after my return from New Zealand. Simply striking up a conversation with COMPLETE strangers, whom you learn so much from and about yourself within that moment in time when the conversation was held in your own tiny little bubble of thoughts, ideas, opinions and perspectives.

Upon landing at Changi Airport, I bed goodbye to the Vietnamese girl whose name I didn't get a hold of, after 10 laborious hours sitting in the plane beside her.

"It was nice meeting you!" I said. She reciprocated, and we waved our goodbyes.

Usually my conversations with strangers would end up like that. I used to get emotional about meeting new people, get attached to them and then have to say goodbye. But having met so many new people and striking up so many new conversations in such a short span of time, I think I've gotten more immune to these farewells with people who were strangers just minutes or hours ago. Months, for the friends I met on exchange.

After those 5 months, I am, finally (and safely) back!

Frankly, I have not yet missed my life Down Under after 3 days here in Singapore. I am in fact, still, revelling in happiness and excitement. It truly is great to be back home.

I thought I would have to scream "JIN ZHUA" ('sibeh hot' in dialect) the moment I landed. But surprisingly, I didn't feel that much of the heat at all. Of course it was hot duh! But it was the heat that strangely, reminded me of home. It was actually ENDEARING TO ME. Lol lol, siao right. I have to say I adapted really fast. In fact, I was having a slight sore throat, but the moment I breathed in Singapore's air, I was instantly cured. Not joking. I felt my throat ease and become less irritated. The air here is so THICK whereas it's so dry at Australia that my nose shit had blood hahaha. Thank you humidity.

Everything was different from what I was used to in NZ.

Familiar Asian faces everywhere. Singaporean to be precise. Clouds covered the sky. Tall buildings thrown into the equation as well. Terminal One felt like a shopping centre, full of people. Like how a normal city should feel like.

I immediately felt at home.

The moment I stepped into my own Pasir ris home, I felt like, hey, this is such a familiar place! Oh my goodness! hahaha ok not so dramatic. But I eased into my normal routine real quick. Routine, meaning habits. I switched the showering tap on as if I just showered in the same place the day before. (yes there's a certain way to switch the tap on) Nothing felt different. It was as if, I never left. And I'd been here all the while.

I thought that was strange. Honestly. Just weeks ago, I completely forgot how my room looked like. Serious. I thought I'd take a while to adjust. Guess not.

"It's your home what", my brother told me. He was the first whom I ranted to about how surprised I was with myself and how quickly I adapted back to normal life.

Ahhh, I miss the family. Distance truly makes the heart grow fonder like the grass that the cows graze on and eat lol. Sounds like fodder. Hahhaha too much NZ I suppose.


New Zealand was definitely one HECK of a great experience.

A clichéd person would exclaim, "I WOULDN'T TRADE IT FOR THE WORLD!!!!"

F you lah. Must be so kua zhang a not? Exaggerate until like that/

But I agree that YES, I WOULDN'T TRADE IT FOR THE WORLD!!!!!!!!! Hahahahaha, dissing myself. In the face.

What I hear about everything, must be experienced to truly understand what it feels/means. Like cultural differences, I would never know what it truly is even though I've heard so much about it. Until I experienced it myself.

I wanted to blog about my return the very first day I returned to Singapore. But, for me, if I haven't touched my blog for quite a while, it takes a bit of time before I get my head working and my fingers typing. Every blog post has a lot of thought put into. I believe so for every blogger as well. It's like, how am I gonna announce my return? A big smiley face and a HEYYA IM BACK? Or just a short post describing my flight back? What? What should I type?

And usually, such blog posts end up talking about something else for me haha. I just let myself type in the moment. Spontaneously.

Right now, I have to say having returned for 3 days, I feel immensely familiar and comfortable with my surroundings. As of a month later, I might not feel the same way coz of all the things that I have to do at school and stuff.

Which makes me kind of sad knowing that I won't feel the same surge of euphoria and happiness about being back! Feelings are so uppie and downie haha.

I have to say though, that I have grown to be so much.. so much MORE curious about my own country than ever before. I have never been THIS curious about Singapore and I hope it stays that way. Despite talking about how I felt immense familiarity in Singapore again, I must reiterate that everything is different from what I had been experiencing in NZ the past few months. Which means even though I feel at ease, I still have to take in and soak in a new environment as compared to what I was used to. Even though it is just Singapore, it is still different to me. Getting used to seeing certain everyday things again.

To illustrate how much my curiosity has peaked, let's just say that I made friends with 3 primary school boys and 2 uncles in my neighbourhood on my first day back in Singapore. Amazing huh? I was talking to them as if I was their neighbour or something. I'd never really do something like that before.

If you follow me on Instagram, I got to know the boys when I was jogging at the canal and they were fishing. For guppies apparently. But you can no longer do that seeing how dirty the water is now. Nevertheless, when I heard what they were doing, my heart leaped. I raced down to the longkao to see how many fishies they had caught. All small silver ones. It reminded me of what I used to do when I was a kid and my bro and I would get scolded by my dad for going to the canal. Such fond memories came rushing back just looking at them waddling through cloudy waters. It was definitely very heart warming for me to be seeing that on my first day back. They asked me what I was doing and was curious about me. Which pri sch I was from. One even asked if I was from overseas and I said no. Disappointed by their lack of guppy catching at the longkao, they proceeded to the fishing lake beside White Sands where they were yet again disappointed coz guppies weren't around lol. Kids' innocence. I'm amazed.

It was there when I met the other 2 uncles minutes later. I was curious about all the uncles sitting around the perimeter of the fishing lake, waiting or trawling for a catch. I then asked one of them if I could watch him fish and he said yes. I squatted and talked to them till 7.15pm. One thought I was interested in fishing. I wouldn't say I am, but I was definitely interested to see how they fished. Watched them catch 2 fishes at least yay. It was cool! I've never seen people fish there despite living in Pasir ris all my life. All these things... we take so much for granted when we live here. We simply overlook things that would be so interesting in the eyes of a foreigner. I'm not one. But it came to me as a realisation that hey, wow, I've been overlooking so many things that would've been seen as new and wonderful to someone who didn't know Singapore. I know Singapore, but... do I truly?

After travelling the past few months, everything was about discovery and seeing new things in different places. It influenced me to want to discover Singapore as well. Especially after returning and having to adapt to "new" surroundings again. Such an oxymoron. It's "new" yet not at all new.
I don't want to get used to Singapore and things around me. I still want to feel like I'm seeing everything for the first time. It's really cool. Everything just becomes new and amazing. You just can't stop learning.

When I was in Australia and New Zealand, people would randomly smile or say hi to you and speak to you. I enjoyed that kind of friendliness. Just makes everything more cheery and happy whether or not you think it's superficial, gotta admit it makes everything more polite and nice. So I believe, I have brought over some of that back here to Singapore. I have started to randomly smile at strangers. Not in a creepy way duh. I selectively pick out whom to smile at and at the right moment. For example, a lady walking her dog and the Malay uncle just walking by as I jog past him. TO MY SURPRISE, they smiled back. Damn, Singaporeans are actually friendly. It's hard to believe. When people I met who've been to Singapore tell me that Singaporeans are friendly, I would reply with a cynical "really?", coz I'd never imagine Singaporeans to even be friendly. Let alone smile at strangers. Now when I do it and people reciprocate, IT FREAKIN BRIGHTENS UP MY DAMN DAY. I mumbled to myself a couple of times and looked up at the sky saying "THERE'S HOPE IN HUMANITY" and make a cringing face like I'm so touched and the world is about to drop into my arms.

Quite dramatic huh? 'Quite' is an understatement. But I truly felt surprised by my own people and their responses. Wtf man. Who ARE they? It's not normal man. Hahahha.

But seeing how this actually works, it's comforting to know that hey, Singaporeans can be friendly too. And most importantly, that it's possible to bring across cultures, different practices. It's quite a new revelation to me. Yesss, I feel quite accomplished by even such a small deed. Just smiling and feeling good. I dunno if I can do that in NTU though. Would be different. They'd think I'd have intentions. Intentions that might lead others to think that I'm expressing certain interests. So, yeah, not so good idea.

Another thing though, Singapore, or at least where I live, gave me that sense of freakin security and comfort the moment I got back. Oh my word. People are always saying Singapore is so safe blahblahblah. Yeah, I thought ok. Yeah it's safe alright. But I'd never known it to give me that much feeling of ease just coming back and knowing that the streets are devoid of dubious looking characters. In NZ, my friends tell me NEVER to go out late at night alone. True enough, so many experiences to understand what they meant. Even in New Zealand. I thought it'd be safe, just like Singapore.


These are just some of my thoughts on coming back. So far all good experiences, seeing I haven't been on public transport yet. The crowds ugh. Ain't looking forward to that haha. Yet I kinda miss crowds as well? Ah wtheck. I'm tired. Abrupt end, or else it won't end.

Will blog more soon! But here's a lengthy post just for you chronicling my entire thoughts and feelings on coming back. Let's just say, I'm glad to be back folks.
