if i could reach up and hold a star for every time you made me smile, the entire evening sky would be in the palm of my hand.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! i read that somewhere so romantic right.

tmr is mummy's birthday i shall be a good girl and treat her to eat somewhere nice :D

haha i wanted to eat then somehow i found myself on the comp agn.

teehee finally!

i finally received the NUS and SMU letters!on the same day! NUS sent a huge envelope with a freshmen guide and all in it so exciting i was so happy when i got them last nite. Tho to some extent i think the tone in the SMU letter was the most humble (haha.) as in, they didnt say like the other unis that they are highly selective, etc etc. but they dont have canteen how to sit there and stone?! NTU was the most efficient i got the letter like, 4days earlier. but i think i'd still choose NUS haha just have to wait for any more news first.but i feel like very wasted very sayang cos i went for the interview and prepared for smu and ntu intvs HAHA thats why i felt like i shd wait and mayb even go for smu cos i think i like the way they teach small grp, but as gummie said, "won't even think about the other 2"! nus fass 18th in the world leh. BUT i think that NUS was the most 'sincere' in wanting u to join them, i mean they sent the whole freshmen guide!so heavy some more postage $1 u know.and we wld all have to go thru this medical checkup clothes u wear no frills no embroidery no pockets no buttons no collar. if not u have to buy the hospital gown.i was shocked. how long alr no PE haha.

charrie is having her intv today gdluck! haha finally the unis are sending out stuff so which means all of us wld get the letters soon! i bet by the end of this wk we wld all sure get replies frm all the unis(: my letter was only written 24th april la mayb theyre taking their own sweet time! yay yay yay i wish everyone luck and that theyll be smart in choosing the course they want and that will give them happiness. in the end it's what we're gonna do with our lives so must be happy with the course that we'd be doing!

saturday im going out with syaz! her bday's on fri HAPPY BDAY on tues im going out with naf and syaz HAPPY BDAY THE 2 OF U haha older than me :P we're going tampines 1 MAYBE cos we havent been there bef so toot right. and i live in the next town to think i havent been there yet, ppl can drive frm jurong! then hopefully clique can make it on monday and i can go out for dinner with them so yay!i like going out with clique. breeks, if u all want korean restaurant mayb we shd go weekend?or when theyre totally free. cos char and lilin wld have to travel a longggg way frm their workplace, plus it'd be evening alr.gummie faster reply my sms!polly try to go k!

la dee da dee da.

OH THIS IS FOR GUMMIE AGAIN:

i found that gp blog alr haha! i went to wordpress then press 'lost password' then typed in my email then they sent me a new password then i logged in and i found it! haha its www.pleaseqmenow.wordpress.com DOESN'T THAT SOUND FAMILIAR?! go read it! i read the thing so funny what we wrote but u need the new password to read it tell me k i give u the password so funny u know whatever we wrote! u shd read it first like one time or so then i delete it then can use my email and open new account there then everyone can comment and i wont be so sad reading the same comments over and over(: anyone wants to read it ask me for password k! it's super funny but i think, it's like quite cool cos it's part of what we did in sch when we were still wearing that uniform, and now that uniform's somewhere in my cupboard stashed away. one fine day we shd all wear our uniform out i tell u pretend that we went to town aft sch or sth SO FUN eh we shd do that how bout that clique? haha! want anot??

so there, once im done with 100th post i shall move on to wordpress! but i think need some time to get used to it so confusing.

i cant wait for sch to start agn.

hearts over rainbows.

omg la what's happening to the weather ar?! you go see facebook status everyone's complaining abt the humidity. im SWEATING when im at home. when i wake up in the morning im sweating. atfirst i thought there was sth wrong with the fan i sleep with so i used another fan. but i still wake up sweaty ar. maybe the plates moving underneath has pushed sg nearer to the sahara. fair snow whites of sg wld get 2 shades darker and tofu wld turn black. no wonder they invented that black soya bean milk ar i see. gosh im crapping agn. warm warm warm. see im sweating now even.

if i had an office job i wld be in an air con room and i wldnt be sweating.

anw, the other day, i believe it was thursday night, daddy brought home letters like always and i have this habit of taking it frm him then look thru tho usually i'd find bills spotlight catalogues telescope guide etc BUT THAT DAY i got the acceptance letter frm ntu wheeeeeeee. haha why cant smu nus send letters too. the tone of that letter i like, so nice and inviting "WELCOME ABOARD!" haha. but then need to wait for the rest of the unis see what they say. then i got an sms frm polly asking me to try the joint acceptance site so i went then oh actually nus smu also got news just that they nvr send letter. so for now got nus fass smu socsci ntu soci. hmmm.

yest i went for the nus archi test. theme was transformation must draw build model and write ur own interpretation of the theme. then just now i went to read the forums see if anyone talked abt the test and got some ppl describing what they did. then for a moment i thought i did the whole test wrongly cos i read of ppl MAKING the things they drew. so i was like WHAT is it linked model must be in reference to drawing cos i knew that if it was so, 90% i wld have taken note what. but still there's that 10%. i was worried i registered with some forum posted my qn there then see what ppl say later. then i went to ppl's blogs, those who went for it yest then i found the blog of the girl sitting nxt to me cos she described her model and i saw her model haha. anw she has a gd memory and she rmbd the qn and typed it there and yay they didnt say we had to link the building to the drawing. etc etc etc i thought it was okay u know acty the test not bad. quite fun.


THEN TODAY CHECK INTERVIEW schedule my name's not there OMG how how how :( but they said that not all candidates are required to come down for the interview, may be accepted w/o interview. i thought that u had to clear the test then confirm got intv but apparently their system is different. THAT being the only consolation. thats what they said but i suppose those ppl must have scored high for the test la if they get accepted w/o intv but i see the names for the interview listed and mine not being one of them, i dunno whether to feel like it's okay. cos it's either u did very well or u did very badly u know? i mean u see. if they put up names for intv means they must have shortlisted them acc to some criteria, and mayb those who are accepted w/o intv are the minority. that is logical thinking, its easier to filter in the first round right? so ya. unless u think its like, those who are called for intv are the borderline, which i dont think so. but i dont see many many vj names either, as in those ppl i know and saw yest, their names arent there. mayb only 1 or 2.
by right normal selection test is like, u pass first round then go second round so on so on. thats why i feel like ...

ohwells its okay. i mean fate will determine where you'll end up what you'll be in the future. i can't push for it if it's not meant to be since it's really outta my control. if only they gave me a chance to talk ar cos i think i can talk talk talk i figured how to tackle the intv alr haha but haiz nvm, atleast there are other options. see how, i'll just wait patiently and pray for the best. hope it'll be okay. they said news wld come out in May. on the bright side now i dont have to lock myself at home to prepare like i planned haha anyone wants to go out tmr or wed tell me! (:

so lalalalalalala GUMMIE IF YOU'RE READING THIS THIS PART IS FOR YOU. i wanted to sign up for wordpress instead (ta-da!) haha cos of what you and lilin said that time plus so many tell me cant see tagboard i also dunno why plus u can see the stats haha so fun. BUT BUT BUT I CAN'T. i fill up the thing then they say my email is alr used.i realised that we used my email for the gp thing last yr u rmb the 'you cannot catch me' thing? must create blog? then how now any way to delete the blog or what anot? its not doing anyth what only collecting dust on cyberspace haha.

i feel a bead of sweat on my forehead. i need the cold vj LTs.

ALL WELCOME WINNER OF NO INCOME CHALLENGE

*thankyou thankyou*

today is the kinda day where i know i have sth to do but find myself typing into blogger, in facebook, etc etc. procrastinating. i have to do things please leave the keyboard.
but im still here urgh.



i liked monday lots and lots over and over again. i like clique. i like going out with them. i felt like i havent talked to gummie and lilin v long alr cos im nvr on msn alr haha see she's looking at you in the picture(: say hello! haha i mean, i really like going out with them cos i lose myself haha. and i like popeye's and flyer. and i thank the shuttle bus that nvr came cos i had alot of fun waiting for it. and its not like i meet them often u know, unlike in school. and i dont mind going out with them all the time haha like go random places talk random things.

oh oh and i wanna say this to charrie:
see now she's smiling at me (: cos she msgd asking if i was free tmr cos she's free and i wanna go out with her yes yes but i havent prepared my stuff so i dont think i can but i feel super bad cos i want to then if she and gummie and all start work agn then how to go out?haiz i feel bad la i wanna go out and play. very boring stay at home u know. but i like staying at home ironic right. i want another outing :( i wanna go out with charrie yarrie pollie lilin and all (if u dont think its u, i mean u) like randomly, u know? not planned. like just now la, free tmr not? ya free where what time? liddat. but i cant nxt wk then i can :( ahh im so sad.

i miss clique alot.

haha like charrie said, i sarang heyo everyone of you too! annyonghaseyo sarang hanmida bo seu bo seu.



i want yahkun kaya breakfast. like pw meetings HAHA. hmm mayb aft polly's unemployed? i think lilin looks very poised in this photo. see the one in the middle there latest addition to unemployed club, where im teh self proclaimed president of unemployed club (UC). cos ive nvr been employed haha. that smile she is showing is cos she's happy to be initiated into UC. as president of UC we will delegate jobs to its respective members in organising outings. but our member size is slowly shrinking as charrie has joined waraku club and i dunno who else is gg to join other clubs. i foresee myself being the sole member agn, but nvm i shall stay strong HAHA what nonsense eh haha i want nice korean dinner with clique. or we can have a nice breakfat too on a sunday morning or sth! and the un-formulating karaoke plan with mcs. and another plan to go holiday overseas with a tour group. and a cruise with sg9 aiyoh i think of too many things but no $. haha not like we'd go cruise ar right?but so fun. see la i live up to my title.

if you go to work, atleast u hav things to keep you busy, and you make new friends and all. if you stay home, you have no income, you have nothing much to keep you busy, and you see all the people around you making new friends. and you feel like a loner.
luckily i have my mum for company. muah.

i think i might as well live under a rock. thank goodness uni's starting in abt 3 mths time. 5 mths pass alr leh.

wah i feel sick ar urggghhhhh :( this is saddening.

anw i went to the ntu intv + written test right.

CAN U BELIEVE IT I LEFT THE HOUSE AT 6.45AM in the morning to make it there hopefully by 9AM, AND I WAS STILL 10MINS LATE. hurrumph ntu is so far and ulu la. really gives me 2nd thoughts abt gg there. 2 and a half hrs just to go there, plus the morning rush. i cant imagine doing that everyday. but i thought the interviewer was nice, despite teh fact that we this this GP-ish open ended thing like compre, abt moods and its transmission. quite interesting to read, to very weird to write abt. and the qns asked were like, what do u do in ur spare time, where u go on holidat haha they were nice, but i think they ask this kind for arts courses to see how u answer. i mean they def wont waste the interview asking these if it were law, or medicine, or business, or accounting or sth right. haha. hmm. but ntu very far :(

okay i think im turning in ar i fell sick.

thankyou mediacorp for bringing my dear criminal minds back on tv.
and thankyou for harper's island.
they really make my life seem brighter. HAHA.
oh tgt with the filipino dramas ahah.

ok nite.

the SMU interview was really not that bad.
REALLY.

i wldnt mind going for it agn HAHA the preofessors were all very very nice,one of them was filipino (!!!attn hot hot filipino husband!!!). they looked very very very knowledgeable, thats why theyre professors. i think if my plan doesnt work out (i think it wont tho) i'd be a professor. a reason for me to talk alot haha!

i woke up, went for the interview, walked to dhoby ghaut, stopped by whitesands, was so happy with everything that i shopped for make up, went home.

and i reached home at before 12 HOW EFFICIENT AM I?? i didnt even bother to rush thru my shopping. as long as i reached home bef 1230pm i was a happy goober.

watson's having alot of discounts for make up i got some that had $5 off the original price.

anw, for some reason i cldnt slp last night woke up like 4 times in the middle of the night and was really sleepy when i was on the train but everyth worked out. i really really feel happy haha the interview was sooo nice.

the girl bef me was frm rj (she thought i was indonesian haha!when i said im malay she was like NOOOOO STOP LYING TO ME haha omg she's so nice to talk to!)and we talked and talked then when it was my turn to be interviewed the interviewer was like 'wah make friends so fast!' haha. i think the acjc girl prob thought i was weird or sth i talked nonstop haiz nvm la. dontcare.

ATFIRST me and the acjc girl were quite stunned aft the rj girl went out and told us that she talked abt politics with the interviewers. i was like ??!! what is it abt current SG politics that i know other than the cabinet reshuffling? blank dot dot blank.i think it was just in the moment when everyth goes blank. then suddenly JENG JENG JENG...

"diyanah, your turn now."

okay that was exaggerated. EH WHY MY HANDPHONE SUDDENLY OFF BY ITSELF EEYER. okay anw went in the room smu treats u very corporately, in the sense they really treat u like a working adult. we shook hands like business people. then i sat down *plop*

then they said i was from vj (yes) was i the eldest (yes) that i didnt put socsci as my 1st choice (yes) and why i wanted to go socsci. it was like, them telling me about ME. for some reason i think SMU is very very organised, like the student helper there for registration had all the documents we sent in with him and he doublechecked with the original copy and my nric and all and he was nice also when i was done he held the door open for me then he asked my how it was then i said it was okay not too bad the professors are nice then he said the professors here are all very nice mayb its not true i dunno but he seemed sincere haha so i guess its true. i even waved byebye to him la haha.

so then the prof asked me what i thought of political science (which made me very very confused, cos i didnt say anyth abt political science or wanting to take political science bef that or in the essay so i guess he read my mind or he just threw me the qn) then i answered abt SG/SEA govt policy ppl's benefit welfare sth liddat i dont rmb what i said. then somehow i steered the discussion into policies that some ppl found 'controversial' ie. foreign talent policy abt the high skilled vs lowly skilled, to the filipinos/bangladeshis who are very qualified but settled for sth less in terms of job status. the filipino prof was the one who talked to me alot on the foreign talent policy, i mean i brought it up, plus she was filipino. i can understand that la haha. if some other foreigner in another country talked abt sth controversial abt singaporeans or malays or what i'd speak up too. but at the end of the day she said that she agreed with what i said and agreed with the points that i raised. and i had to agree with her also, she was saying that some ppl would have thought that these sort of foreign talent would be known as 'exploitation', and its true that many ppl have that kinda mentality cant help it. but uve gotta rmb that in terms of qualifications, they may just be more qualified than you. plus there are alot of them who are successful in nursing journalism education marketing human resource and others in IT and all. it really depends on how well u use the opportunity given to u. mayb theyre at that job temporarily, not long term. the guy professor added that it also depends on the social and economic condition of the country first, also how ppl respond to it. i mean, u cant deny right eventho sg's prosperous, there's still braindrain happening and sometimes it cant be helped that someone else has to fill the places in sg. or another place where ppl cant find jobs or what they have to move on to look for them - it's a two-way thing. atleast i made a point to say that mayb they could enrol in a local institution and go for attachments of some sort, to make full use of the time spent in SG while working. that way u upgrade urself and can be certain of a brighter future. ohwells it was just my two cents worth.i hope all goes well haha.for awhile i thought they were gonna be angry or sth but i think they like that kinda rigour and discussion.plus they commended on the points, she said it was an interesting perspective. anw smu is a discussion based kinda learning right?

but i think it shd be okay. i had a good feeling aft leaving the place. the vibe i got was like smu likes those who are able to talk and discuss and not only take one-side of the topic, that was what the other ppl i was talking to said also. read the forums. when i was interviewed i noticed that i cld see the lifts frm where i was sitting, so it meant that i wld be able to see the interview rm when i was in the lift right. so i kepo kepo look for the room and this guy in the lift with me must have thought i was mad. anw i did see the room, and it was a longgggg time aft i left the room cos i talked to the girl outside the room bef walking to the lift. and i saw that the 2 professors were having some sorta discussion and the girl that was supposed to be aft me wasnt in the room yet! means they were discussing abt me. i saw the lady prof with all her hand gestures and the guy prof listening.i dunno if the hand gestures were that of someone super angry or just gesturing to make a point. ohno i hope nth's wrong. if they talked right aft i left means theyve been talking for quite awhile.when i left the room we shook hands and smile smile smile smile and i said said thanks thankyou very much thankyou for ur time agn and agn everyth i cld think of to show my appreciation i said it. haiz this shdnt happen to a worrywart paranoia-plagued person like me HAHA. but the feeling right aft i left the place was very good, so that itself shdnt make me worry right? lalallalalala.

NOT. haiz whatever happens happens la haha, but i think i gave it my best. then they asked whether i had any qns luckily i prepared for that one heehee. yay.

overall, it really isnt bad. dunno why the whole world said its bad. incl for the socsci one. i unds the biz or econs la ure suppose to fight for ur life, but socsci not bad at all. seeing the lessons conducted just now and teh profs acty made me kinda wanna go to smu instead. but u wont have like a 'school' atmosphere la, like no canteen to hang out, no 'other areas of teh campus to kepo', small student population so acty he knows him she knows him they know them if i get in mayb i'd know all of them. pros and cons to it la basically.but i wldnt mind. see whether fass replies me first.

now when i think about it THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME sounds so darn wrong to say to professors. is it? aiyoh. im getting more and more worried now NO NO diy stop.

anw look at this, published today in the malay ppr:

read the heading. i should go to sungai ketapang. gummie its near ur house u know! the big canal there. no i dont care anymore confirm plus chop chop chop. this is for fun so funny ar. haha i hope i take picture liddat no copyright issue or what. i didnt intend it!

im free to do my stuff agn now aft settling app and interview. cant wait for mandarin and french(: wed my last makeup lesson i shall take pictures with my hp!thurs mayb out with janice&joy, fri cycling with syaz no aerobics cos good friday and lalalala i shall look for stuff to do.all my classes all fully booked im alw like last few to reg or sth liddat haha.must grab!cos teh lessons not alw on :( depends on the response. and for awhile just now i felt so sad. some reason la i think for me to think, cant share much abt it:( but i felt sad aft i heard it. not a joking matter u know.
