Xiao Long Bao

Wendy wanted to have xiao long bao (steamed dumpling) with me today after our last exam so i joined her and brought her a "little" surprise. Though not that little, i brought Yeah Hooi along. Heehee...

Things we ordered

Stm. Pork Dumpling

Stm. Veg Dumpling

Steamed Veg Bun

Radish Pastry

D/F Shredded Pancake

LaMian/Spicy&SourSp.

F.Ndle/Beef&M.MushR.

Hmmade Ground Bncurd

Cold Water

Towel?? <- I'll sure we did not order this. And it cost 30Cents each =)

I guess that is a lot for 3 person, we were bloated by the end of the meal.

And guess how much we paid??

A hefty $48.60.

Date with the Dentist

Ahhhh.....

Why do i meet all the weird people?
My dentist was singing when he did polishing for my teeth, his feet was even tapping to the music.

It would have been fine if his singing was great, but trust me, it wasn't. I was trying my best not to laugh, when there was so many equipment and tools in my mouth.

Avisit to the dentist is like a nightmare for all young at heart, and apparently I'm one of them. As we grow older, we would forget about our twice a year visit to the clinic. I was at the clinic yeaterday, to take some medication for the china trip, and i was hoping that my mum would forget about the dentist. But with the dentist just right next door to the clinic, the probability of her forgetting is close to 0%, unless there is a major distraction like an earthquake or a wild tiger.

Anyway....

I just finished my exams!!! Yeah!!
I threw 20 marks away!!
So everyone, please do not tell me anything about EQUITY....

1000 Words

I actually have the lyrics on my secondary school table.It is the purple colour piece of paper. My table is kinda messy right? =X I have a poem, written by my friend at the top right hand corner, below that is a Grafield comic strip (we all need some little fun in our lives), a "SHUT UP" advertisement by our school library (it was interesting at that time), the wrapper of a Kit Kat given by Mr Lee the physics teacher (My source of Motivation. Erm...I'm talking about the chocolate...). The red book that I'm hugging, that is my report card. And yes, you can see my A maths textbook, it is always there. I seldom bring it home, becasue i use my brother's at home.

I Lay My Love on You

I am placing this song, becasue it is a dedication to my friend. Yes, he once used his creative mind and made a camp performance with this song. Though it is not the only camp tricks that he have done, i think this song best represent it.

Tribute to a Friend

His crude and rough manners disgust many. Taking advantage of girls and making crude and insensible remarks every now and then.

Many feared him. His over-powering presence scares us. And it seems like nothing would ever survive if placed up against him. You could never know what or when he will do something dramatic.

Most loathed him. Some would even take a punch from him to get him barred from a certain area. What follow his name were usually negative and notorious comments and opinions, some of which were agreeable to a certain extent. He is what you would call a scumbag.

Though born as a leader, his brainless and childish acts and stunts which he used to lead others are irritating and meaningless to most. He once brought his remote-control car and was playing with in along the corridor, creating disturbance and laughter at the same time. Another time he had led the camp with his dumb forfeit actions, one which we were made to follow. It was ridiculous but fun. There were those would will joined him readily in his crazy entices.

It has been almost a year now and yet, comments still follow his name. He had portrayed himself as someone to fear, someone to hate. And it seems that he has done the perfect job at it, because it is what most people thought of him.

I think everyone has a different side, one is what we would show the world, be it the true or fictitious side, and the other, the real person deep down inside, is something that we would keep in us as long as possible. We could never judge someone based on what we see and what we hear; there are things that we don’t see and don’t hear, things that are still part of the single being.

I am fortunate that I got the chance to see other sides of this person, the person who till date remains notorious in the minds of many.

It may not seem like it, but he is smart, in fact, he is intelligent. Being in the course that only those with single digits could get in prove something one way or another. He is knowledgeable and would only share if you were to ask. Yet, his brainless entices are the ones which no human of the right mind would carry out.

He is afraid of the dark. Unbelievable, but true. He created an account which puts his fear into something which many, including me, could relate to and it has become an outlet that we could use to joke about our fear. I will give him credit for being able to turn things around, and to look fear in the eyes.

You may laugh, but he is honest and will justify his actions (well, at least most of it). You could ask him things about his life as a delinquent, from things like smoking, drugs and gangsters; he would share things with you. I remembered him telling me that though he likes to smoke, he can’t stand the smell of other smokers. He is actually very self-conscious and would ask if there was any smoke smell on him after he smokes. He would explain whole-heartily, about how if he were to dress up his best in his most “zhai” clothes and hang out in someone else’s turf, the other party would still know. He shared some trademark symbols and tell-tale sign of gangs, one which I would not disclose.

Right up till now, he is the only one that made me cry and comforted me all at the same time. Like most guys, he is helpless when a girl cries. I would not tell you what happened, but I would tell you that I wasn’t crying on purpose and that what he said during that time that made me cry made sense to me, even now. He has taught me things, some of which i would never admit. Though he didn’t provide any solutions or what-so-ever, he rebuked my options which I wished to carry out then, and because of him, I chose not to carry them out. Perhaps I would never know if the path I didn’t chose would lead me to somewhere better or not, but I am glad that the path I took has brought me here today. Perhaps i have grown stronger, maybe even braver than before.

There was this once, when we ordered fast-food delivery at 4am in school. After payment was made and the delivery man was gone, we found out that there wasn’t any cutlery and straws for our breakfast meal. He called the outlet up and made some complains. And guess what; the delivery man came back with another 7 sets of breakfast meals with the cutlery and straws. We ate 14 sets of meal but paid for only 7. Thinking back, it was quite naughty of us, but I can’t deny that it was fun. At that time, I even helped him sew a red heart on his bag, the type of bag that looked like a rabbit-little creature, i could remember his was brown in colour. He just said he wanted a heart on it (I forgot the name he gave to his bag), and I am glad that I could do it for him.

He is influential. There are those that would like to be with him and those that would like to be him. People would follow him. The fun side of him brings people together and I guess that is what they like about him. His jokes, his creativity, his stunts, his “patterns’. I think no one would ever be able replace him and what he did, not in the hearts of those who feared him, not in the hearts of those who loathed him and definitely not in the hearts of those that admired and loved him.

There is this other side in everyone which many of us forget. That is everyone is someone else’s child. His dad adores him and trusted him, a lot. There was once when I overheard them making a conversation. Strange as it may seems, it was like any other parent-child conversation. “Have you eaten?” “What time are you coming home today?”

Perhaps even all that I have said, it wasn’t enough to change his image in your mind and I couldn’t care less. No one could change what he has done in the past but we can start thinking of what were the thoughts and motivation behind every action he made. Was it to seek attention? To cover his short-comings? To put a brave front?

It is true that you are what you want others to see you as. But there are still too many questions without an answer. And it seems like the real answers would remain as a mystery and lived only as our individual opinions.

To Kill A Mocking Bird

To Kill A Mocking Bird. I have heard about this story long before, and yet this 2hours long theatre production was my first contact with this classical story.

Obviously, you wont be getting any constructive critics from me. But what I can tell you is that there wasn't any fanciful props nor was there any glamorous red-carpet-show costumes nor any state-of-the-art sounds and lighting. But even with a simple set, the show was captivating.
It narrated by France Finch, the grown-up of six-year-old Scout Finch and the drama goes about showing the memories and thoughts of the past.

My Stage Manager from the SUPERSTAR MUSICAL played the part of ...., the nanny-like figure for Scout Finch and her brother, Jem Finch. Was she acting? I really can't tell. Heehee.

I think it will be a good book to read. Do let me know if you have the book by Harper Lee.

Royce Chocolates

Royce Chocolates^^ Thanks!!

I did not tell you, but it the first sight of it, due to the sliver wraping, i thought it was a silver pouch like thing and I almost fainted(just kidding). But the part about not knowing what it was, that was serious. It was only thereafter when i read the words on the paper bag.

I have no idea what's with me and Royce Chocolates, I think we have a long link of fate that is tied together.

Scaring me to meet a mystery person is plain evil. I seriously thought is was my nightmare that we were going to meet. If that's true, I'll kill you. But thank god, it was the guy that share the same birthday as me.

I found out that I knew Mr-same birthday since Pri5, but have never gone out with him what-so-ever. And i have to admit i only got to know about him on our 11th birthday when I bought some candy stuff for our class. So for the whole 3 school terms before that, I didn't know that there was someone that shares the same birthday as me. Hey, did you know that we share the same hospital too? And that you were born 5 hours earlier. Perhaps we even share the same doctor. Haha. Happy "Mugging"!!

It was actually a unsuccessful day for us. I was suppose to get a dictionary, which i didnt, someone was suppose to get shoes and didnt, while the another was suppose to get foundation but got tanner instead. Weird!! But still I had fun with you guys. Do remind me to get you guys chiong-san from china kay! And give me your 3 measurements. =P

1 more Exam Paper!!! <- I hope i dont forget!!

9 more days

Right now, there is a lot of things going through my mind. For one, going on a 5 months long trip with people who are not family and living with them under the same roof are two different stories.

The 5 of us carry within ourselves, our own beliefs, habits, stories and history. And with the 5 of us brought up differently, we will have diverse mindsets on a single matter. It might be easier to compromise with another human being, but to find similar grounds among the 5 of us might be a challenge.

I have no idea what we haven gotten ourselves into when we opted for the apartment. But i guess only time will tell...

Have you Studied

For all our life, as a Student, we asked our friends, "Have you studied for so-and-so paper? And every answer given by them is returned by our ridiculous thought.

If they answer yes, we will be surprised and shocked and think that it is impossible to study for that 10 plus over chapters and do all that 5 year-series, or that they are just being too arrogant and acting all smart...

If their answer is no, we say that they are lying and that even if they say that they did not study, they are still able to score well...

So, what? Other than living up to the expectations of parents, ourselves, we now have to live up to our friends expectations.

What is wrong with all these people?! Is it because they are just not confident and want to see if there are others who aren't prepared for the paper? But yet the funny thing is that when they do meet people who tells them he/she is not fully prepared, they will just say that these people will score well no matter what they say.

Are they just trying to make themselves seem like the one who is the least prepared for the paper and so as to give themselves some leeway for their own failure?? Or they just cant accept the fact that they are always people who will do better than them and need some poor excuse for themselves...

Either way, if you ever meet some one who doesn't believe what you say and choose to listen to their own reasoning, tell them, "if you don't believe, don't ask!"

Drop the Pink Elephant

Drop the Pink Elephant, an interesting book that shows you 15 ways to say what you mean.. and mean what you say.

There was this particular chapter that describe something we should apply in every conversation we make and every speech. And that is everything is relative.

Every interesting thing to you can be boring to another person, especially when the another person have no interest in it and it becomes worst when they are unable to form a picture in their mind of what the hell you're talking about.

Remember what Doctor Seah always say. Everything is Relative. He says he is short (which is true), but compared with someone shorter, he is tall (and this is true again). He says he is handsome, and i must say he isn't wrong if he compare himself to someone uglier...

For my first Act3 event, i was posted to the National Library Black Box. There was this time when i took the backstage lift with my venue manger, Andrey and Human Jazz creator, Christian Swenson, and both of them were around 1.9 meters tall.

Standing beside them, I subconsciously said what was on my mind, "I feel short." And my manger told me, "You're not short, we're just taller." Thinking back, I agree with him. With a height of 1.67, i am taller than the average Singaporean girls my age, but under that particular situation, i was short as compared to the two "giants".

You see, things work in a relative manner.

I have to admit that i do make this little miscommunication to people around me when i start talking about Nana (For those who do not know, Nana is my cat). To me and my family, she is the cutest thing on earth but to most, she is just another cat, and that is because you have never met her and is unable to relate to her. I share stories about her soon, and i hope that i will be able to make to relate to her.

What Your Sunglasses Say About You

You are competent, direct, and powerful. You are focused on success in all aspects of your life. You need to be shaded from moochers and parasitic people. You feel sunniest when you're around people as driven and and brilliant as you are.

The Sunglasses Test

Little gesture on the bus

There wasn't much empty seats on the bus, so i took one beside a guy. The aircon was blowing in my direction and my throat felt uncomfortable. I started coughing, silently, trying to suppress the coughs. But i was still coughing and couldn't really stop.

The guy beside me must have noticed, as he tilted the aircon towards him instead. Shortly after, i stopped coughing. It was a little gesture but it helped get rid of that cough and it was really nice of him, because he could have just done nothing.

Now, how many of us would do things for a stranger?? I would give up my seats to people of senior age, those who are visibly pregnant and those who seem to have difficulty standing. I have to say that sometimes, when there is a lady standing right in front of me, with a slight bulge at her tummy, i would be at a dilemma on whether to give my seat up for her or not. Reason being that if she is not pregnant, she might be offended of i were to give up my seat to her. A dumb and insenetive reason but i still make it up by giving my seat to those who really need to seat.

Searching for Me

Only 1 person from my project group have found my blog, 2 are looking for it and another couldnt be bothered. In their search to find my blog, they have found some other accounts in which i have, like fanfiction and facebook...

So it suddenly occur to me that if people are keen enough to search for me, it is pretty easy. All they need is my full name and/or my nickname of heartfly. So those friends that i have lost contact with long long ago, isnt really interested to know how i have been. Pretty Sad =(

I suddenly wiished that looking for my friends was as easy for me as it is for them to look for me. For being the one with horrible short-term memory, I cant remember a lot of their full names/surnames...

Dont you have a friend that you wished to look for too?? I hope that you'll be able to find them.

search for Lee Xin Fei and you will get my blog and my facebook account.... and it is at the top few links!!

Type in xinfei heartfly, you'll get my fanfiction account, friendster account, my past blog (which if u know how to, you'll be able to find this blog, but since you're here reading this, you wont have to).
