i never thought i would be interested to watch badminton until i worked for the AVIVA Open Singapore 2007 event.. the difference between watching badminton and other sports like soccer or basketball, is that it keeps u at the edge of your seat at every second.. its really amazing how they can return all the forehand/backhand/serve/smash/dropshots so easily and at such ridiculous speed.. its almost like a mini-olympic with the world's top ranking players and fantastic audience.. now i know why so many ppl are willing to buy tickets to watch the matches..

the player who stand out most is boonsak ponsana from thailand.. he is like the underdog from nowhere.. stunning everyone when he beat china world number 1 lin dan in quarterfinals.. then moving on to trash ronald susilo who was really disappointing in the semis.. and finally winning the champion when he beat china world number 6 chen yu.. opponents are all left speechless after the game.. so u can imagine how good he is.. and most importantly he is still young at 25.. and no harm that he is quite good looking and a law student haha.. fellow ushers all wan to watch his match.. i got the privilege to stand 4m away from him when he was doing his cooldown stretches to prevent ppl from disturbing him.. haha as if he is some superstar :p be sure to look out for him in years to come!!

finally had time to think and list 6 things weird things about myself after being tagged by mavis.. here goes:

1. when i sleep, i can only fall asleep if i face outwards, meaning my back is facing the wall.. if i face the wall i will feel insecure and start imaginating something behind me *cough*.. so what happens if my bed is in the middle of the room? i really duno cos all along my bed is always by the wall haha.. thus im pretty used to sleeping on my right side..

2. continuing with my fav habit of sleeping, i tend to "ren chuang".. meaning i can only sleep soundly on my own bed.. remember during chalets, im usually the ony one who doesnt sleep, i just lie on the bed and listen to ppl snoring and taking pics of ppl sleeping, but its not good to take pic when ppl are sleeping, might see something else *cough* however the above two points mentioned will not happen if you manage to make me SUPER tired.. i will sleep like a pig..

3. i absolutely hate button mushroom.. i know many ppl will bomb and object with me.. but blah i stil hate them no matter what.. i hate their sight, their smell and definitely their taste.. yucks thinking of it makes me wanna puke haha.. but then i like the normal ones (the black "xiang gu").. and the thing is juan is totally opposite of me, she likes button mushroom but dislikes xiang gu.. see its normal for ppl to dislike certain things.. on the other hand brinjal is really nice duno why so many ppl dont dare to try haha :p

4. i like to eat the "soggy" macdonalds french fries.. when ppl usually pick the hot and crispy ones, i rather eat the soft ones.. which is good since nobody fights with me haha

5. i tend to eat things from the outer layer to the inner layer.. this is funny for example when i eat ferrero rocher, i will eat the outer nuts+choc then the biscuit then the choc then the nut hahaha!! ok i think not many ppl will do the same thing as me.. my bro will just pop the whole thing in his mouth *shake head* duno how to appreciate haha.. same thing for kitkat.. i try to chew off the outer choc then the biscuit layer by layer haha..

6. i have a habit of playing with the thread on buttons.. especially the collar ones.. you know the thread that pops out below the button after sewing is finished.. not just on buttons, they can be found on pillows or anything thats sewn as well.. it just feels good to have the thread go into your skin or fingernails haha ok im weird.. but this habit is not so serious now.. i remember sec sch days when my collar button thread keeps coming off haha..

omg i think you guys will really think im weird after all this.. but i assure you im not that weird haha.. and i wont tag anyone.. but for a bonus i shall post a few more weird things about myself.. once again pls keep in mind that im not weird, maybe just a bit :P

7. i have a mole in between my right thumb and index finger.. and whats weird is that it is an alphabet H, H for hui lin.. i swear its not a tatoo..

8. i think the use of a hp is just to call/msg ppl and something to help me act busy haha.. when im at home, i can actually not switch on my hp for the whole day.. which is bad cos if its something urgent im dead.. and when im doing something/super lazy, i will reply sms later, much later cos i will forget all about it.. trying to get rid of this habit =__=

9. i am really good at wasting time.. i can slack whole day in front of my pc just surfing randomly.. and yes this happens quite regularly.. just like now..

10. as you might have guessd im a little scaredy-cat haha.. but i still like to watch horror shows.. i remember watching "shutter" early in the morning with audrey so that we wont be so scared after the movie.. end up the cinema only got less than 10 ppl which makes it even scarier.. but at least i wont waste my money and cover my eyes.. i will peek through my fingers :D

i happened to come across a fren's blog.. lets call her "A".. i got to know A from my past job but din really keep in contact anymore.. i noticed her sad msn nicks and after reading her blog i know why.. her mum passed away in an accident few weeks ago.. i did some googling and i vaguely remember watching the news on tv.. the tour bus was on its way to Cameron Highlands when it collided with a container lorry.. one singaporean died while others were injured.. who would have guessed the woman will be related to someone i know.. sigh its quite shocking and sad to know such things happening..

im not really good at consoling ppl so i din give A a call or leave a msg after i read the news.. plus it might be kinda weird since we havent keep in contact.. i duno whose fault was it but ppl might feel so unfair for A's mum.. but yah we just have to accept that things happen and cant be undone.. looking from the other point of view.. at least the rest of the ppl and her frens on board are alright.. i dont think A will read this but my deepest condolences for A and her family.. peeps remember to always drive safely and once again cherish the people around u!!

You scored as French/Spanish/OtherLanguage. You should strongly consider majoring (or minoring) in a foreign language, especially French or Spanish as they have a greater use in today's world. But other languages could be useful to you as well, such as Chinese, Japanese, German, Italian, or many others. With a major in a foreign language you could teach, or work for a company as a translator or foreign correspondant.




It is possible that the best major for you is your 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th listed category, so be sure to consider ALL majors in your OTHER high scoring categories (below). You may score high in a category you didnt think you would--it is possible that a great major for you is something you once dismissed as not for you. The right major for you will be something 1) you love and enjoy and 2) are really great at it.




Consider adding a minor or double majoring to make yourself standout and to combine your interests. A minor in a foriegn language is useful for ANY major. Also, business or political science are great minors for a foreign language major. Please post your results in your myspace/blog/journal.

You Are 30% Boyish and 70% Girlish

Even if you're not a girl, you're very feminine.
You're in touch with your feelings, and your heart rules you.
A bit of a emotional roller coaster, one moment you're up and the next you're down.
But no matter what, you try to be as cute and perky as possible.


took this quiz from mavis jie's blog.. haha so im 70% girlish?? nah i also duno myself.. sometimes i can be quite boyish sometimes girlish.. one thing im sure i never try to be cute.. im.. just like that hahaha :p

WAAA fyp is over.. cant help thinking is it really over?? it seems like yesterday when we were still in the LT for the fyp briefing talk.. and in a blink of the eye its over!! yeaa just like how "few" days ago we were all still freshies running around the campus for engin orientation with my sunburnt and peeling forehead @_@.. time really flies man..

talking about my CA4.. duno its for the good or bad.. my examiner probably only listened to 5% of my presentation.. 95% of the time his head is down either flipping through my thesis or technical paper or slide handout.. at first i tried my best to keep eye contact but give up in the end, he cant be bothered to look at me anyway haha.. even when i use the mouse arrow to explain some diagrams, he also never look up.. so i just rattle on and on from my script.. only asked a few qns.. mostly not related to my project at all haha..

definitely learned a lot of things which i will probably forget soon.. and i cant wait to uninstall the stupid problematic software which i use for this project.. i dont want to touch it ever again.. im now left with *drum roll* lots of webcasts and notes to catch up!! with less than 2wks till first paper *panic faint die* work hard dear frens, hopefully for our last and final exams in nus!!

P.S anyone who wanna see the kick off plus opening songs of jolin's concert, here's a link for the videos:

Jolin Dancing Diva Singapore Concert 7 April 2007

jolin is indeed a dancing diva.. and JUST a dancing diva.. yah get what i mean? on her singing.. hmm can only say she went pretty off-key for quite a number of slow songs.. at least the fast songs were a bit better.. or maybe everyone is too focused on her dancing to notice anything.. seriously her fast songs doesnt require that much technique as in emotions, hold key, etc hehe

the opening was pretty impressive with her split on the gymnastic rings.. but yuwei say looks like circus performance.. i got no comments when jolin ask "wo you mei you bian piao liang ah?" a couple of us were busy gossiping whether she did anything to her face and body haha.. hmm she couldnt do the cartwheels well, pam say she can do better haha.. the sound system was blasting like crazy and the most irritating of all is the super ultra strong spotlights.. imagine 10+ of them hitting right in your face.. its like bright until u cannot see anything on the stage..

i read in papers that fans were very high.. really? to me it seems like it was jolin who asked everyone to stand up haha.. the shout for encore was erm pretty bad.. normally they will dim the lights and the drumer will hit some beat and the audience will shout encore!! encore!! but jolin just came up after about 2mins..

overall ok ba wasnt really that bad.. but it gave me the impression that she wants to end it quickly.. maybe my expectations were too high.. i stil enjoyed her wu niang perf.. really like the costume and dance..

remember the time when we go crazy over jap dramas like beach boys, overtime, long vacation, tokyo love story, waterboys, hero, forbidden love, GTO, beautiful life.. its like years ago what they call the "ha ri" craze which is now replaced by the "han liu feng".. although till now i still duno how come jap dramas just slowly die away.. personally i feel jap dramas are still great in their own way..

channel U started airing "Engine" and made me realise how much i miss jap dramas.. the last jap drama they show is i think "Pride" or "Good Luck"? which all coincidently stars takuya kimura aka mu chun.. haha he's a natural in acting and no harm that he's good-looking as well :p great storyline, real life, touching and lots of cute little kids at the foster home.. my nose cant help feeling "sour" after every episode when new lessons are learnt.. give it a try if u r free on fri nights :)
