Sunburnt on Saturday, January 27, 2007
Today went down to the tailor at Chinatown to have our measurements made. Hmm this was the first time i am getting a tailor made suit and pants for myself. Hmm 80 bucks for a black suit and a pants i think is quite reasonable, considering a suit in G2000 on offer cost 69(without pants of coz). So ya.. the uncle told me my waist for 27.5 and i told him that i want it 28..if not suffocating sia.
So i went with Bryan, the filipino and Hong Juen, the msian. NUS choir is really an international choir per se. I have known one African American, Canadian, Flipino, Msians, Indonesians and Spain. Interesting. What a cultural exchange it is.
So after the measurement we decide to walk around and so i jus bring them around chinatown, eating at some stall. I wanted to find this famous porridge stall...but i jus couldn't find it :(
So ya another saturday, back to mugging. Yes i know it's a saturday. But this semester i have 3 group projects in all they could have taken my breath away literally. Quality engine had thus far been the easiest to cope compared to the rest. Engine Econs..is another one big mathematically demanding module. Software engine is a bit abstract and theoretical...but hopefull the drawings and stuff will get me moving..
Nothing exciting for the modules these sem but i know this sem could be one of the worst semester to cope for my 4 years, as told by seniors. Oh well.
2 tuitions and i am coping fine. My dear source of allowance is from there. So thank GOd for the lobang.
Sigh...was having a conversation with a city harvest gal on my way back from choir practice. This fren of mine is still in jc, but she came to nus choir on the basis that she can get into nus using nus choir as the appealing factor. First of all, she gives me the impression as being boisterous. Second i feel old talking to her, coz she is 19. Third, she is from city harvest, and when i told her that i am also christian, she started to tell me things that only city harvest church-goers will atypically say. "Touch of God's power, Dreams and apparitions, Pray for good results, pray to get into NUS...etc" Hope i don't sound as if i am bad-mouthing or wat, but i am jus hoping that Church these days can teach proper doctrines. What you pray can be what you are before the Lord. Ok may be i should quote something that she had said which personally i don't find it offensive..but find it uncomfortable.
We were talking with a canadian chinese fren who had jus come to singapore for the first time.
That city harvest gal started to tell her " Wa, you know ah, Nick is from vjc u know, smart ass lar he, go and kiss his ass".
First and foremost, at our age, WHO WILL COMPARE JC to JC>??? Then again, may be coz she had jus finished her A level, i don't blame her. But the kiss the ass part...i feel embarrassed for that canadian gal. Coz weirdness is written all over her face. Sigh.
Where has all the demure, quiet, meek and gentle gals go to?
