hayy international women's day!

Being a significant event in western countries, it also influenced singapore. Although no holiday is given to us! Still i see a growing recognition of this special day. I think some organisation hold - scaled event to commemorate the contributions and injustice given to women in some countiries.

Do you know?
1. women are 300 times more likely to die in childbirth or from pregnancy in least developed countries.
2. Women are highly at rick of sexual violence and rape
3. Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in New York City killed over 140 garment workers due to poor safety measures. Workers, all women, had raised the safety issue over and over again but to no avail. Thay had low wages and poor woking conditions. Thus, when this fire broke out, it sparks a uncontrollable anger which gradually led to a recognisaton of international women's day. BUt i thought having a day solves no issue it only commemorate, thus i wouldsuggest that we do more. In some countries, men are doing this:

In Italy, to celebrate the day, men give yellow mimosas Yellow mimosas and chocolate are also one of the most common March 8 presents in Russia.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Croatia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Macedonia, Montenegro, Poland, Bulgaria, Slovenia and Serbia the custom of giving women flowers still prevails. Women sometimes get gifts from their employers too. School children often bring gifts for their teachers as well.
In countries like Portugal and Romania, it is usual, at the night of 8 March, groups of women celebrate in "women-only" dinners and parties.
In India, IWD holds a lot of significance. Many celebrations are held during the day. This portrays the power of women in the modern era and how vital their role is in the society. (Wiki, 2009)

In singapore, being a developed country, maybe we can have donations to improve women's living conditions in the less developed countries. I guess doing this adds more meaning to this special day.

ha$ppy bithday to gong gong 1!

1st problem encountered when doing last minute assignment

i have finally understood how it feels to really rush your assignment at the very last minute...
Guess what happen in the evening??
I have typed a 2000 plus words for my 3000 words essay and I got so sleepy that i used another doc to save over my essay! Oh my gosh...

When its

last min work + such stupid error = Hell


I tried downloading the "undelete" program and software that is supposed to recover your documents.. It failed me! Though i recover the doc, but i cannot open it... after trying for close to an hour, i gave up....

I got to retype and think about what i have typed during the day! ...

Now, finally I am back to my 2000 plus words benchmark again.....
But thankfully, i have saved my first part of the essay in my thumdrive! so its not too bad.. i have a headstart of 1000 words....

I was always very cautious, I ensured i save every now and then.. BUt i did not save every now an then in different areas...
i can truely understand that as an adult, such silly error can still be made..

So now, I made it a point to save now and then onto my com, my thumbdrive and my email...
i know it seems to be super kiasu. But after such scary experience, I rather be safe than sorry...

phew...
back to my essay again...

Vday 2009

My v day gift is not on my head! though my head is the centre of the pic! look at my middle finger.."no bad intentions...the diamond ring on it is my v day gift this year.. I am not materialistic but i love it! awe... thank you my sweetie!

happy valentine day to all!

There are many assignements due but i just can't be bothered with them.. because this is my last year! last semester! and i have yet to taste the feeling of being a slacker...Never have i not worry about my assignments during my years in uni..

This time round i am going to try last minutes work and see how i fair.. if i got an A! haha then those last few semesters i shouldn't have worked so doubly hard.. well if I got a B, then yup! hard work does equals successs sometimes.. ... i still have a 3000 word research paper untouched! and its due in 4 days time.. shitty.. i am feeling worried... its really scary when the past me would have got it done by now... shit.. but whatever! i really want to enjoy my uni days! hack it.. i am gg to start tomorrow...

well lets think about the valentine's day last sat. i really enjoyed myself.. and i love my gift.. its roses again! and this time round, its PINK! not the usually red.. he said there was a special meaning behind pink roses and so i googled...

"Pink roses are commonly presented as gifts and lovingly grown by gardeners alike. Pink roses can mean quite a variety of things from “thank you for your assistance” to “I’m thinking of you.” Pink roses like yellow are the perfect gift for just about anyone. You can choose darker pink for someone with a wild outgoing personality and pale pink for a gift recipient who is shy or calm and collected. "

Is that what you meant???

sch started!

and i'm loving u even more each day!

i thank god for everything, everyone and yes, you.

Happy New Year 2009!

Oh x'mas trees

Doby Gaut

Tampines Mall

Expo

On 25th dec 08, we went around singapore for many reasons..

we toook pictures with some x'mas trees...

Have you ever wondered when to out up these trees and when we have to put them down?

Traditionally, Christmas trees were brought in on Christmas eve and then removed the day after 6th January. The reason being that having a tree up before or after these dates was considered bad luck.

If you are still having a tree at your place, you still have 6 more days of grace... =)

road blockS

what really happened...

Time: 130 am to 2 am.. Venue: Along west coast road and the road towards JE from teban gardens..

Heres the conversation at the first road block:

Police: Where were you from?

MJFL: West coast mac.

POlice: Where are you going?

MJFL: Home after studying..

Then we were told to park our car at the side. I thought they will just search the car and thats it... NOPE!

Police: Take out your ICs(both) and driving liscence(for darling)

MJFL: OH!

For a moment, I was awaken form my dreamy night... ICs... Never have I been asked for IC by a policeman! Though I didn't do anything wrong, i felt scared...

Following that, he called back to some HQs and have our ICs checked.

Police: Is this your car?

darling: my dad's one, we can't afford one you see, we are students.

POlice: Oh.. this car is rather affordable actually.

MJ's thought: "HUH? hmm... huh? what a comment.. is that a friendly policeman trying to strike some conversation with some commoners? Or he just thinks that we, undergrads are rich? A car leh! How to afford one when you are still trying to survive and giving tuitions to make your living..."

So after some checking of the car and recording+checking of ICs, we were finally released...Though i felt a tinge of relief that our policemen is doing their job, but i thought that they were wasting their time on us. The whole process took about 10 to 15 minutes...maybe there were more thieves to be caught somewhere else.. IF you had watched "The chaser", you can't help but ponder about the efficieny of policemen...

At the same time, I think the other van beside us were driven by indian foreign workers.. I was thinking why only both our vehicles were stopped...

After putting in some thoughts, maybe our reason of studying at Mac is just too LAME to be true??? Come on! We are youngsters! I bet if we said we just went home from clubbing, maybe he will just test darling's breath and thats it....... haha.. so i learnt that the reason you give should follow the stereotype of typical youngsters...

Guess what? along that short route home, we encountered ANOTHER road block... haha.. its quite funny, given that the policemen asked the same starting questions. I think they are trained this way... But this time round, we being more experienced, immediately flashed our ICs and confessed about our previous road block. Within seconds, he let us passed..... hmm... we were so "lucky"! a pity we didn't buy lottery... aiya!

While other days we were already asleep by 2am, this very day, we were checked by some policemen. Thankfully, its a pleasant experience. =)

Of course,one that we hope we only encounter once.

Thinking of the next Sentosa trip...

I LOVE this photo! The light, the wind and the wet hair makes me look a Hot BABE! (not pig if you are thinking of one!) maybe I would be even hotter if .......... I could....... minus off my partner... you know being SINGLE just makes you hotter... hahaha.....*winks*



Just went to sentosa with his friends... or maybe orientation groupmates... Though I felt very old there..Most of them (both girls and guys) are below 21 with majority of the girls being only about 18 or 19... OMG! I wished I was still that young... Nevertheless, I still enjoyed myself. They were sporty and we played lots of games.... finally my beach volleyball skills came into play...
I can't help but admit that I am oo..ol....OLD! so old... After the games, I came home feeling so tired. I think being fit is a history now. Kind of wished Sentosa outing is a weekly thing, then I can rewrite history...

In the past, i have been wondering whats life like to be over 20s...
I guess now, I have an answer to my life before 23,

It is a life

MORE of being
1. studious
2. Family oriented
3. richer
4. Tai Tai (Manicure, pedicure, high tea, resturants. hotels)
5. conscious of hair, age, figure, skin and etc...
6. Street smart (I know my darling would disagree!, but I was worse last time...)
7. less Dreamy
8. Realistic
9. Selfish
10. and definitely BORINg...


LESS of being
1. healthy
2. Sporty
3. Gullible
4. Sacrificial... when I was a kid, Iwould die to save a cat. But I wouldn't now.
hmm...
