Scuba Lessons





Tt's our Diving School ...


Not our Yachts !!!

Hey hey .. i juz took up scuba lessons and is ready for the showdown at Pulau Tioman this friday to Sunday. LOL. so excited and yet fearful. Cos after undergoing these two days of basic training lesssons in the pool and the theory lessons, realised the risks involved ... so somehow will feel frightened... juz hope everything goes smoothly in the open water dives. ***GOD BLESS ME !


Everyday, we went all the way to Tanah Merah mrt stat to take the 10.30am shuttle bus to SAF Yacht Club at a pretty ulu place ... On this bus, we would meet our assistant coach DEAN ALAN LAWRANCE - a young ang mo which captivates Marg ! Haha ... always sit beside her wan ... As usual, the four of us with sleepy looks appeared in front of the Coach Alex. Alex is a nice person overall, juz tt he got a picky tongue ... and he's damn good in "motivating us.... The first day i was there, he gave me a new name - Felicia ... Dotz ! And he call Meixian "Lulu" ... So funny... enjoyed the lessons with him..cos he's always tt funny... Haha. The 1st 3 hrs would be Theory lessons which we would go through the textbook in details; in betweeen got small loo breaks. Then follow by lunch break at ard 1 plus ... there's only a cafe/restaurant there,so without any choice, we settled our lunch over there BUT the Hor Fun there is Nice at the price of $4.80 after staff discounts (by our Coach) !!! I ate that for two days le ... The fried rice is also one of the recommendation by our Coach. And i realised during lunch, Dean realli like spicy ... he would gobble up the whole plate of red chilli... Salute him - dunno tt ang mo likes spicy stuffs. Haha..

Anyway Dean is a nice guy who tries very hard to "enlighten" us in the pool... Quite encouragin to me BUT for Marg and Meixian, they hates it,cos they do not comprehend what he tried to say them underwater...LOL. I must admit i also have a bit of difficulty in understanding the language he speaking - maybe cos he's from South Africa ... the asscent is abit weird ... and during lunch todae that i know that Dean had made 1000 +++ dives liao .... Amazing sia ... When can i do tt ? Haha .. FAT HOPES !

The pool sessions were bad .. 1. Due to the rainy weather 2. Cos we are new to all the equipments 3. Cos i am a NON-SWIMMER 4. I am DENSE ... LOL .. Trying hard to master the skills .. will try to tackle all the problems in tioman on Sat in the open sea ... Gambatte , i believe i can do it !

Well ... Wait for more updates k .... when i m back on Sunday Nite !! Wish me luck and safety ...

Steamboat + Kbox nite

After a mth of separation, met up with the usual gang from GIP Shanghai. Whyeheng was the organiser of this outing. Though we were suppossed to meet at 7pm, me n whyeheng met up first to go Bugis since we got nuttin better to do at home and also to escape the peak crowd. We went to return our books at NLB before heading to arcade (the common thing which u'll do with Whyeheng). Rot there till time's up to meet the us. Had a chat with Whyeheng ... had a conclusion from him : "Most friendships are left behind in Shanghai." => made me pondered alot... whether friendships are realli so vulnerable , one which people can get close and get separated once we r back to our own friends .... Can somebodi gave me an ans ????

The usual ones turned up : Whyeheng, me, mel , shan, yekai, pauline and zhizhong + Steven (Wh's buddy). Had our dinner at the Zhen Fa's Live Seafood , the famous one amongst rows of steamboat buffet. LOL . . . Was lucky enuff to get a table there (Guessed we were still earli though we reached ard 7.30pm). Din eat much cos of my sore throat and also muz watched my diet le, cant grow FATTER .

Discussed on where to head for the KTV session => final decision was to sing @ Kbox at Lot 1. So everyone took the train over except for yekai and pauline who did not join in. A disappoinment was that Kbox there does not offer overnite singing till 6am , instead the shop will close at 3am. So we paid for the package like $32 pax for 6 person and started singing at 11pm. The price was like at least 6 times steeper compared to Hao Le Di in Shanghai, regretted to start singing in Shanghai during the last 2 mths. The singing session was great, guessed everybodi enjoyed themselves ... though the timing was short , next time shall stat singing from 7pm !!!!

Today (SAT) went to visit my Grandma in the evening with dear after a long sleep .... Dear drove all the way from Boon lay to Tampiness .. Xin Ku him le. Though me and my grandma did not chat much, but i could tell from her expression that she was happy to see the two of us. After which, had a chat with my auntie, realised that my grandma's dementia had been getting worse ... and all she hopes is to see us more often. I shall do that !!! Shall spend more time with her ... Esp when we were leaving, the sad look on her face, made my tears uncontrollably flowed. People who knows me well will know that i am a super emotional gal, i cried easily .. esp things to do with my loved ones. Tt's where the phrase " Appearance does not mean anything!" depicts well .... Hahaha. Anyway, was grateful that dear was there to console me , cheering me up ... *sigh*.

okay gotta had my beauty sleep le .. tmr might be gg to visit my grandma again ... Gd nite!

Waa peeps, u know it's great to have an online diary .. cos since todae i got nuttin much to do .. i read thru all my past entriess ... realli digged out alot of fond memories ! It's a great feeling to know what happened in the past and "Hui wei" awhile .... And also, i found this little Poems which i did last time .. Haha think most of u knows that i am rather good in creating Poems/ lyrics .... (**Not thick-skinned**** )

" To find a partner in life is not easy ...
so if you think you have already find him/her....
Cherish him/her ....
Coz it's REALLY hard to Find someone
who understands you that well EVER AGAIN .....
Cherish every relationships that comes into your life .....
especially FRIENDS who walks with you ....
thru WOES & HappiNEss....
Someone who really knows you very well...
Someone who has a special place in your HEART ...
Friends do not always nid to meet often....
Coz i know the special someone is always there for me
No matter when & where i will be .....
Have no regrets and live life to the FULLEST "
(Quote by V-Jie in 2005)

Nice rite ? Haha i love the friends part ... reali spells out what i am feeling right now ... It's hard for one to find out who are the true friends among so mani peep who i call "friends" ... I found two in my secondary Life, one in Jc and one in uni too ~~~ though i found them in different phases of my life, but it's great to know that there are friends who understand me well and accepting as who i am ... Though they might not know that i treat them as my closest friends, friends who i hold great importance ..... i will still play my part as a friend, always ready to b there for them ... Cos i cherish every single friendships i made.

So sad that now two of them are overseas now ... and the other two are busy with their own things .. So what i can do now is just to play my part a friend .. i dun ask for anything , cos i dun believe in contributing equally in friendships. Time does not determine the bond, but it's the mutual trust and understanding that made the bond ... Like in the poem, i know the special ones will be there for me when i needs them ... *** Blurted alot of craps rite ****

K la..enuff of my craps ... gng to watch show liaoz .. take care peep ! I am in the midst of Writing another song ... Haha

InSpiRatIons ....

I got down some phrases from the book of Chicken Soup .... Made me ponder alot of stuffs .... Hope it brings some inspirations and feel for u guys too ~~~~


"A friend drops their plans when u're in trouble,
shares joy in ur accomplishments,
feels sad when u're in pain.
A friend encourages ur dreams and offers advice
- but when you don't follow it, they still respect and love you."

- Doris W. Helmering


"Friends are there when your hopes are raveled and your nerves are knotted;talking about nothing in particular,
you can feel the tangles untwist."

- Pam Brown

Actually i can say that i am thankful to god for letting me know so mani friends of mine, of which a few i can share my happiness and woes with. Some unexpected friends came along in different phases of my life, making a difference in becoming who i am todae. From a recent friend i made, i have understand that no matter what a person i am, a friend will still b a friend and likes me as who i am. I dun need mani true friends, juz a few who i can share my joy and happines with ... it's realli hard to find friends who click well and help each other grow...

Realli hope that these friends will walk with me down the future path .... no matter where i am, my heart will always have a room for them . i cant promise them much. but i will try my best to b there with them in times of needs ; to learn a listening ears , as well as a shoulder to lean on.

InSpiRatIons ....

Waa.. after the run on Sunday, i have been having body aches .... Flu bug also attacked me everyday =( v bad, came back from Shanghai, immed caught the Singapore flu.

If u guys have the time, go ahead and borrow this book ... it's nice and inspiring !!!

With a vehicle , it is easy to travel around to mani places , wherever i feel like gng..... i picked East Coast Park to be my destination for the day. Wanted a place where i can enjoy the company of nature. Though east coast was packed with families todae, i still managed to take a stroll down to Bedok Jetty. Along the way, took a short break at the water ski area, saw skier performing stunts ... Awesome ! At the jetty, saw mani anglers trying their lucks .... stopped there, sitting at a corner, listened to the sea breeze and feeling the cool air patted on my face ... Wonderful feel ~~~ One short period there made all my problems and troubles blew away... at least can relax my soul and mind for some time. wil go ther often.

Tmr planned to go jogging .... Time for some serious exercise , also a good way to calm minds and soothe one's exhaustion.

It's been two weeks since i returned from the memorable Shanghai journey. Been trying hard to get used to the life back here and of course the lifesyle too ! Missed the part where i could talk to friends as n when i needed to, but now .. everything is so different. Now only this phrase can describe my feelin - "Treasure the times with ur loved ones .... "

Haiz been fighting a strong battle within my heart ... heart matters =p still trying to get thru the phase .... Juz hope things will get thru asap .... and back to normal.

Have started work with Starhub again .... sales are getting constant now .. juz hope to earn as much as possible within this month before taking a week break juz before school starts . Currently , also looking for voluntery works to do , most likely would end up in orphanage , cos i want to bring joy to the youngs , let them knows that they are still people who cares for them .... the reason why i do not prefer old folks home is that i scare i could not control my tears .... though it would b the same both ways ! lolx..... wana do meaningful things than to spend wasteful time idling , thinkin unwanted stuffs .. haha

Okay .. gng to take a break now .. cos i juz came back from work... tiring sia .... Gd nite people !

Great HangOuts with Shanghai Khakis

Well well... counting down ---- 5 days !

On monday, went to work alone as roomie could not get out from her bed ... did nothing much in office also. Juz idling time waiting to have dinner with my supervisor after work. Met roomie at ZHENG DA mall @ Lu Jia Zui. Went to this restaurant @ the 9th storey. OMG ~ it was a grand chinese restaurant, was thrilled tt i could actually had the chance to eat in such awesome atmosphere- restaurant called "渝香酒楼”。 Look out of the window would be the view of the Huangpu river .... So nice. Ordered few dishes for the 4 of us - me, mel, Prof Qian and Prof Weng. The two shanghainese ordered local dishes for us to try out. Overall, it was a gd dinner session, at least could chat with the 2 profs like friends.

On tuesday, as we did not have to report for work since monday, me n roomie stayed home and rot, started packing up our stuffs. Afterwhich, ard dinner time, we set off to CAO BAO road for 2 purposes. firstly, was to leave our gifts for our collegues in the office and secondly was to meet the khakis for dinner at the CHONG QING restaurant. Well, i brought them walk in the rain to the dinner venue.It was like a 10 mins walk distance. Total 9 peep turned up - me, roomie, wh, shan, qiaoli, pauline, yekai, zhizhong and Dap. Could say it was a successful dinner session, as everybodi which we invited turned up =) The restaurant name is "重庆酸鱼菜" and we ordered 酸菜鱼,椒盐猪手,虾皮卷菜心,糖醋小排,番茄炒蛋,蘑菇青菜,冬瓜汤,酒酿丸子 and 3 bottles of SUNTORY beer ! Haha .... Had a super great dinner, was happy that everybodi loved the dishes ~~~~ was like 20 rmb pax. So paiseh that Dap got drenched in the rain ....

Wednesday, as usual, rot with roomie at home in the mrng. Then ard 3.30pm we set off from25 home to close bank accounts first. Then we took a cab to Chang Li road, a place which Dap recommended. Cab fare was ard 25rmb. At first, we could not find the pasar malam stores , but after searching, finally started exploring the area. Went to have dinner at roadsides stores. Then we took this bus to Raffles city to meet housemates for dinner. Since everybodi had already eaten their dinner, i suggested to go to COLD STONE creamery to have dessert. The ice cream was nice ~~~ Yummy ! dun think got the chance to have it when i am back in singapore ! sad =( haha ...

9 Days Left...

This week had been a tiring week. Tt's why i fell sick on Thur, had a v bad headache, immed
after work, went straight home to nap.

Friday, a long day for me, as roomie, King toot and Qiaoli set off to 7 pu for shopping once again. Guess it would be the final showdown for shopping at 7 pu. Actually, i learnt great bargining tactics in China. And i m becoming more confident in myself - this trip has proved to be a fruitful wan, though the work experience wasnt much and my social circle wasnt fruiful. It's k . friends do not have to be in great numbers, juz a few friends with common interest and sincere would do .. great to foster new friendships over here which i felt contended.

Well.. back to the shopping part, i went shopping with king toot, think we shopping from 11am to 5pm ? Dead .. think i spent another 550 rmb on tt day itself. Haha ... but i think it's worth it cos its for friends and relatives ... After this hearty shopping spree, we set off to people square in a cab to look for agency for the Huangshan trip. But first, we alighted at Steakking for a nice dinner .... had sirloin steak and Red tea ! Yummy ~~~ guess i would missed the food here ... With big black plastic bags in our hands, we walked ard people square vicinity and enquired mani tour agencies to seeek the best tour package, took the pamplets home for discussions. At nite, had a short meeting and ended up chose "Da tong" tour agency package which costed 558 rmb pax.

On Sat, earli in the mrng, Yanni came to my house. As i could not wake up in time, i asked her to come my hse and waited instead. We waited for Qiaoli to wake up and call the suit maker at 16 pu , before we set off to make blouses. 16 pu is known for tailoring suits. Most of the GIP grp made their suits and shirts there. Actually i was suppossed to accompany Yanni to make her blouses, but ended up i made 3 myself ! hahaha ... the design sample i saw wasnt bad, so i chose 3 different designs, hopefully it would turn up nice ..... At the building, i oso bought 10 shawls, intended to give my bf's aunties ... and my aunts too ! Hahha ... After that, we went to Shanghai old street to look ard, bought some souvenirs and bags ! Then i brought Yanni's to this Fu you Building which sells all the small little souvenirs type. My eyes and hands v itchy wan, always see nice stuffs will juz get .. haha guess when i returned and unpack my luggages and parcels, will end up having extra stuffs ! hhhaa ... The next destination was to bring her to this spectacle mall at Shangha railway station where King toot met us ther too. Its a underground building with all the specs shops gather. Haiz.. as i couldnt control myself, i got another pair of specs . Hahaha .... 170 rmb for a pair, with Uv and radiation protection. Anyway, its cheap ... so made another pair also k ...

After sending Yanni off in a cab to meet her parents at the bund, me n toot went off for dinner. I brought him to salvaeriya (think spelling wrong) for dinner. COs last time Marg brought us ther before, the western food they served qutie cheap and also in big servings. Not bad .... Went home ard 8 plus. At nite, met The ktv khakis for KTV ovenite session. Had a big room for 210 rmb . the 5 of us took turns to sing, till toot got knocked out ard 4am. Sang till 6am before all set home for our beauty sleep. Woke up ard 12pm , met toot for lunch at 1pm. Waa piang .. now v full. Gng to rot at home whole day liaoz... see whether tonite got the chance to go mahjong session ba ..

Take care my friends ... see u all in 9 days time !

p/s: IN this independent life, i realised that most ppl tends to b selfish, only think for themselves and not for others. ** haiz*** i grown up again ! hahah

KTV spree

In my last blog, i wrote tt Sat nite KTV session shall be my last KTV here in shanghai but who noes ~~~ Yesterday morning, Daphane suddenly sms me jioing me to go KTV, as a farewell session with Bryan, who is Dap's Beijing friend.

Yesterday after work, roomie n i set off to the Sci & tech Museum for shopping and highlighting of our hair. Yesterday think i spent 600rmb at a , shot lo, bought cufflinks, gifts, and key chains for friends, also including the hairdo. We highlighted our hair at "Mentor" , a hair salon which most GIP ppl went to. Costs me 300rmb for haircut, treatment and hightlight. All done in 2 hrs time.

Met Dap's gang at ard 10 plus, though the KTV session started at ard 8.50pm. Haha .. Dap also jio along C cube's hse mates. So touched that Dap actually jio us to go . Hehehee ... well anyway enjoyed their singing company, more happening and FUN lot, more entertainments too (by c cube) hahaha ... Opps ! Well we sang till 1 plus in the mrng before we set off home. Took a cab back home, ended up getting lost on the street. Then the taxi driver was rather pissed,cos he kept on u-turning. In the end paid 25rmb instead of the usual 16rmb ride. Slept at 2am.

This mrng came to work, unexpectedly i was rather awaken sia. not tired at all.. no wonder peep always say cannot sleep too long, the longer u sleep the more you wanna sleep ! Muhahaha ...
